| What am I doing wrong? Feeling awful before/during/after working out. Posted: 15 Jan 2021 01:07 AM PST Hey guys, I noticed in the past years that going to the gym (specifically weight lifting) has a plethora of side effects for me specifically. While most of my peers feel great when generally working out, I actually feel awful. I have been working out for years and things haven't gotten better, maybe even worse. My routine consist of 2 to maximum 3 workouts per week and they are all full body routines. Mostly 6 to 7 exercises with 4 sets in the medium range of 8-12 reps. What happens when I'm working out consistently is that I start sleeping more, I wake up after an 8 hour sleep and feel sleepy for the next 3 hours at minimum. My overall energy is lower my body aches and is tense. When I do not workout(like now when gyms are closed) I actually feel incredible. It takes as little as a 20 min home workout for me to feel these effects the next day. I do not feel like I overtrain, going to the gym 3 times a week for an hour should make it impossible for me to overtrain. My nutrition isn't the best, but it's not that bad either and I definitely get enough sleep+calories. I am baffled as to what I'm doing wrong. People say it just isn't for you but I wanted a more scientific, experienced approach to my case. Any ideas? [link] [comments] |
| Is muscle growth possible without progressive overload? Posted: 14 Jan 2021 11:49 PM PST Gyms are closed. I'm using buckets of water to exercise. However next day I'm not feeling any DOMS pain in my muscles. Even after doing biceps curl with a full bucket of water for 7 sets of 12 reps. However I'm not increasing the load progressively. I fill the water bucket and use it as max load. Am I even getting any benefits of muscle growth, when I don't progressively overload? Or do I just increase my reps and/or sets. Give numbers if possible. What do? Thanks [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 15 Jan 2021 02:00 AM PST Welcome to the Physique Phriday thread What's the point of having people guess your body fat? Nevermind that it's the most inaccurate method available, (read: most likely way wrong - see here) you're still just putting an arbitrary number to the body you have. Despite people's claim that they are shooting for a number, they're really shooting for look - like a six pack. So let's stopping mucking around with trivialities and get to the heart of the matter. This thread shall serve two purposes:
Let's keep things civil, don't be a creep, and adhere to Rule 1. This isn't a thread to announce what you find attractive in a mate. Please use the report function for any comments that are out of line. So phittit, what's your physique pheel like this phriday? [link] [comments] |
| How do you do wall sits to failure? Posted: 15 Jan 2021 01:56 AM PST I'm not sure when to stop and I'm not sure going until my legs actually give up themselves is healthy or safe...I usually stops when my calfs start shaking but if I wanted I could keep going for slightly longer or maybe even like 10 seconds, I'm not sure lol. Let's say if for example I was doing a wall sit competition against someone I would have kept going if I was at the point where my calfs shake until my legs literally gave up or the other person failed but should I go until my legs literally give up during a workout?
