I haven't lifted for 7 days now. I can still feel pain in my left forearm when I push in on a certain spot......damnit.
I walked into weight training class and we had another competition today... and guess what the competition was.....Arm Wrestling. Hmmm I thought...this will be just great for my effed up forearms. The teacher teamed us up with people he though was equally as strong as us. I had to arm wrestle some ripped african amerian fellow who is a senior I believe. I didn't know how it was going to be fair. But there was no winner...it was a draw. And to my surprise I had no pain in my right forearm. But my left one still hurts. All I did today was deadlifts. 20kg +45lb bar 5x 50kg +45lb bar 4x 70kg +45lb bar 3x Lame. I'm so bored every night now that I can't go to the gym. |

hmmm. that's something you should run by someone in the training or health forum.
i've been icing my shoulder and that injury was more a ligament thing than a muscular thing, so may it might help you too? don't take my word for it though. ask your numbnut coach that had you do the armwrestling in the first place and see what he says?

I started a thread in the training forum. People said it is most likely a tendon. I got peer pressured into trying 225 bench today. I didn't get the throbbing pain that I usually get, and that was heavy weight. So maybe its getting better? Also did a set at 165 and 135 with no pain. Haha the teacher will give me some bullshit answer like he does for everything. I iced it last night and I will ice it again today. |

Hey people that read my journal!
I haven't updated this in awhile. My arm feels about 95% better now so thats good. I quit qith strength training because I don't wanna lift super heavy weight with my arm. Instead I'm doing 8-12 reps. Shoulders, Back and Biceps Military Press 95-8x 100 - 8x 105 - 8x Close Grip Row 100 - 8x 110 - 8x 120 - 8x T-Bar Rows 70 - 8x 80 - 8x 85 - 8x Face Pulls 140 - 10x 150 - 10x 160 - 10x Pull ups BW 8x +5 8x +10 8x Super Pullovers 120 - 8x (too heavy) 110 - 8x 100 - 8x Shrugs 185 - 8x 190 - 8x 195 - 8x Rear Delt Flies 17.5 8x 20 8x 20 8x Fun workout! First time every doing the super pullovers and my lats were sore as hell the next day. I did this workout on sunday and they are still a little sore. We've lately been having fitness testing in my weight training class at school. My score on the pacer was 47......lol yeah I don't run long distance much. For pushups we listened to a CD and it told us to go UP.....(hold).....down.....(hold). Doing slow pushups are hard but I got 44. Sit and Reach I got 38. For BW dips I got to 24 than quit cause I didn't feel like doing them anymore. I could've kept going for a few more though. |

Benchpress 135 8x 185 3x 205 1x 215 1x 225 1x 230 0x Incline 135 6x 145 5x 145 4x Cables 120 6x 120 6x 130 6x Close Grip Benchpress 125 6x 135 6x 145 5x June 27 Hang Cleans 95 5x 115 5x 135 4x Low Row Close Grip 120 4x 130 4x 140 4x T-bar Row 90 6x 115 6x 125 6x Pullups BW 8x +10 5x +5 5x Pullovers 120 8x 120 8x 130 8x Workouts were great but I tried doing power shrugs and front squats. On both workouts I felt tons of discomfort in the spot where I fractured my vertabrae several years ago. I don't want to refracture the bone so should I just do leg exercises like extensions, curls and lunges? And why would my vertabrae hurt doing shrugs but not when I do hang cleans? |

Haven't updated this in awhile.
I have been doing full body routines. I used Cow's guide to make my full body routine. They have been tough workouts! Romanian DL's 135 - 8x 155 - 6x 175 - 5x 185 - 5x 205 - 3x 210 - 3x PR Seated Military Press 95 - 8x 115 - 6x 125 - 6x 135 - 5x Leg Extensions 150 - 6x 155 - 6x 160 - 6x Pullups Palms facing away +BW 8x Palms facing away +10 5x Chinups +BW 8x DB OH Press 55 - 6x 60 - 6x 65 - 6x Lat Pulldowns 130 - 6x 145 - 6x 160 - 6x Pretty decent workout. Felt awesome during the RLDL's. I finally got 6 reps in at 65lbs for DB OH Press. Yay! I also watched a video on how to perfect my Lat Pulldown form which helped alot. I could finally feel the burn in my back instead of my arms. |

Front Squats 135 - 8x 155 - 6x 165 - 5x 175 - 3x 185 - 1x PR DE Benching 155 - x3 145 - 9x3 Deadlifts 135 - 8 185 - 5x 225 - 3x 225 - 1x DB Rows 75 - 5x 80 - 5x Bastard was hogging the 85lb dumbells.  Power Shrugs/Grip Strength (haha) 225 x8 230 x8 230 x6 DB Flys....flies?....flyes? 35 8x 40 8x 40 8x I tried back squatting with 135lbs. But I still felt a slight irritation in my back. So I decided it wasn't worth risking. I'm pretty sure my legs can handle 225lb deadlifts.....but my back can't. Probably going to lower the weight next time. For DB Rows I don't really feel anything in my back, just my arms. My traps were very sore from DLing plus power shrugs. |

But you put plates on one side of a barbell then use a rowing handle to row it.... 90 - 6 115 - 5 115 - 5 Still have not gained weight. I have been too busy out with friends and with school which leads to not eating which means not gaining weight SO I am still at 145-148lbs. FUCK. |

What are your target calories, and how are you tracking intake?
Wondering where to start? Confused? This will get you started.

It seems that 2500 calories doesn't make me gain weight. I have very little body fat and a very high metabolism. So I think my target calorie intake should be around 3000. Which is hard for me because I am naturally, and have been my whole life, a light eater. I don't really have any means of tracking my intake. I will post some pictures pretty quick which were taken a week or two ago. |

How come we can all track intake, but you can't?
You can't use fitday for some weird reason? 2500 is only just slightly higher than my maintenance, and I'm a middle aged woman who weighs 144 lbs soaking wet. If you can't gain on your mom's maintenance calories, you shouldn't be too surprised.  Easy calories: eat more fat.
