    Overtraining?

    ok I went to gym yesterday trained fullbody as usual to keep building good foundation back up. I do 2 on 1 off 2 on 2 off. Went to do normal day 3 routine today to mix it up usaually have sat off. Anyway did my Alt bi db and then my curls then went to squats pulled off 60x3 @ 10, 10, 8. So after I'm done I get this shooting pain in my head like a migraine. Have got this before but not nearly as bad. Have any of you ever got this? What should I do?

    Sounds like you need to breathe when you're lifting and drink more water.

    No gym for home, work out floor with 30, but is it for 20 like 30 lb when you no lift it to be for men, for 30 lbs instead? or half is 10 for 20 pounds?

    I agree, how you breathe is very important especially when your lifting heavy.

    I somehow doubt that what it is. SH are usually related to head trauma (like the Wiki says in para.2). So unless you smacked your head with a plate, I wouldn't sweat it.

    I've gotten this from time to time, but it is usually due to neck strain. How's your posture when doing squats? I'm betting that it is a simple strain....these guys can cause serious headache(s). Do a search on exertional headaches.

    See a Doc if you're that concerned. Better safe than sorry.

    If it was this i would be impressed with your ability to sit at a computer and type about it, thats a pretty serious thing to happen :P.

    Glad its just a strain, dude. Perhaps warmup better next time?

    Yeah, what Gaz said. I have always run into problems when doing not only squats, but movements like lat pull downs ( I will never do these behind my neck again for this reason) and sometimes v-bar pull downs. It has a lot to do with neck positioning/posture under stress. You may need someone to help you with form when doing squats...sometimes it is better to have a second pair of eyes.....and someone to catch the weights when they fall off of the bar.

    I mean warmups as in ballistic stretching, but starting with a warmup set is also a good addition to that.

    Cowpimp wrote a great sticky topic about dynamic flexibility and warmups. I've used that sort of setup for ages and it works really well.

    For a warmup set i'd lower the weights by a few RMs (if you're doing 12 reps, use your 16 or 18RM).
