The Weight Training Thread

[Subby]

I hate the following:

I get into a great rhythm and am rally enjoying the gym. I get really motivate and my intention is sky's the limit etc.

Then I pick up a bug and I'm kept low for a week.

Then I just can't motivate myself to go back having to start all over again having lost strength.

So bloody annoying. I know it's just a motivational thing, but does anyone have any tips on how to combat this or is it just a personal issue that has to be overcome?

Watch some of these.

They motivate me when I don't feel like going to the gym. I've no intention of bodybuilding but building a decent physique. These tip videos are good for learning and motivating

If that doesn't work then look for mutant in a minute playlist on youtube

Experiencing the same right now. Was going to go last night but still have a bad chest, and rule is anything below the neck don't.

I don't think its a coincidence TBH.

Exercise builds your immune system. But that's long term. Short term your body rebels.

I'm making myself go tomorrow like it or not.

Well, still feeling a little peaky, but forced myself to go anyways.

Feeling awful, but also much better, if that makes sense. A fairly half arsed effort but a good warm up for Friday's session.

Natural endorphins you get from exercise or weights always perks you up ....natures free get high hit

Christ haven't been in the gym now for a month since the accident. ****ing ****. All my gains going down the pan

You'll be surprised at how quick it comes back, though will hurt like a mofo the first few sessions the muscle will quickly pile back on. Just get yourself right mate and don't fret about it.

I've had my 10 year old nagging me for yonks so I've got him doing some weights at the moment. Keeping it very light and safe of course. Quite amusing watching him bench press 10kg. Heh.

benching 10 class

On the plus side...meds killed my appetite so I'm down to 13 stone 5lbs....who needs cardio when nerve meds do the same job

Yeah itching to get back but can't push this type of injury...I'm a regular Sturridge with this bloody neck.

Haha, a couple of times I was thinking of posting, but couldn't be arsed looking for it in the general sports thread, so never bothered.

Poor modding.

Good work Subotic. Had wondered where this thread had gone. Marginalised cos of their fear of the non-stick-thin limp-wristed man.

Imagine it'll be that Moddled & LX, usually te worst culprits by far.

Anyways, my mate pulled 280K deadlift yesterday. Clean too. Total beast.
