[Burr]

You want a strong Core do Pilates.
Read about it!!!

 

[davegmb]

My back hates me if I go over 5 reps on deads

 

[Burr]

How come you folks ain't posting nothing ???

Almost a month!!!

 

[Curt James]

Well, I'd have to have something to post...

Appreciate the encouragement, Burr!

How are things for you?

 

[Burr]

I am wonderful, get off your ass and go push some iron!!!!!

 

[Burr]

Hey Hey. I thought you were going to get off your butt and push iron then talk about it.

Come on Teacher Daddy Oh.

 

[Curt James]

lol I'm wiped out. Been sucking down a generic DayQuil recently. But I'd been out of the gym before catching this mess.

No excuses, brother. And, again, thank you for the encouragement to get my *** back in the gym!

 

[Curt James]

Up listening to the election results.

[Burr]

Think it's time you did something??

Excuses! Excuses!

 

[Burr]

[Burr]

[Curt James]

[Burr]

Come on James, stop the BS and push some iron!!!


WIMP

 

[Curt James]

I love you, too, brother! Appreciate the encouragement. How's the bike riding there? Hope weather is treating you and the Mrs. mighty fine. We had snow flurries here recently.

Was at doctor yesterday after the after school program. She said I'm on the mend, so my excuse is no longer legit re pneumonia. Fwiw, she did say she believes I had viral or "walking" pneumonia. Have a follow-up chest x-ray in a few weeks.

I'm on the mend!

Sincerely,
WIMP

 

[Burr]

Shiiiit, do Vol on a machine until you can HIT again. WIMP

 

[Burr]

Hey Wimp, you still playing sick???

 

[Nightowl]

Hey, I am around and looking forward in seeing you here more and more.

 

[Burr]

Morning Darling, how you doing?

 

[Nightowl]

had to ask if you've an answer to this: does working out without skipping a day make it terrible with our bodies? An IFBB pro, has said that the nervous system is not completely mended and that the body needs to have a day off. He mentions onward upon cardio between the days and then within the days of weights. I got the abs already in play, but the interests we gals are talking is the nervous system.

any 411 on your end Mr. Curt?

love to ya!

 

[Burr]

I was told and have always worked out every other day.
They say the body need a day to repair it's self.
Maybe if you don't do the same part then it will be ok.

 

[Nightowl]

no burr, they said NO! He was talking a lot about the nervous system and the need to repair. What about ABS?

okay, i am out the door. got out of class early.
c ya in the big picture!

Guilty as charged. Apparently my immune system is as sturdy as a wet piece of tissue paper.

Hey Wimp, you still playing sick???

Have another doctor's appointment at 1 p.m. tomorrow. Believe the flu has hit me this time. Jesus.

(throws hands up in air)

Hey, I am around and looking forward in seeing you here more and more.

I'd rather be in the gym than sucking down soup, but not feeling well at all at the moment.

Morning Darling, how you doing?

A little sick, sweetheart.

Wait, what? Oh! You meant Nightowl!

I'd side with the IFBB Pro. Rest and recovery is critical.

Recently started reading articles and watching videos by John Meadows of Mountain Dog Training.

Meadows does absolutely zero cardio. And his conditioning is superior!

I was told and have always worked out every other day.

Sounds good to me.

How much rest does the IFBB Pro recommend?

Hope your class went well!
