    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    You need to start low weight and do some remedial exercise to target the specific muscle group. Stretching and heat are also important for recovery. However, without an assessment, I couldn't tell you what to do exactly, so you should go see a physio.

    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    Sounds like you have either lateral or medial epicondylitis. The best recovery is always take some time off. If you don't rest, it will never recover. After you feel better, strengthen your arm muscles. You might want to see a professional for the condition because it will just continue to...

    It's a Honda Rebel so the bike is not high at all. Basically, I was frustrated about not keeping up yesterday, and lost confidence in myself today. It was a negative feedback loop, so I just got worse and worse. Like I said, it's a personal challenge. I have always thought of learning motorcycle...

    Thanks. It's a personal challenge for me. I have never been good with activities that requires high level of balance. I just want to break out of the mold, and do something I am invariably bad at.

    I have never been on a motorcycle before until yesterday. It was a pretty bad day overall. I started off good for about 10 minutes, then wipe the first time. I kinda went to the other side and just did my thing (slalom without cones, tight u-turns, slow riding, etc) and then the instructor said...

    I fucked up so hard today. Fell 6-7 times, fucked both my knees up and had my foot pinned under the motorcycle one time. Good thing I got riding boots and jacket to protect myself. Only thing I didn't get were knee pads =/. Gonna go back for some remedial lessons later when my knees heal.

    I use a fitbit aria and it surprises me when i look back at my records. Here's a sample of when I started working out. I was about the same weight for almost a month.. and even gained some at one point. It's okay to note of your day to day, just don't hit yourself over the head if you gain some...

    You're correct your body weight is highly depended on diet. If you want to lose weight, you would have to go on a caloric deficit with or without physical activity. As for cardio making your hungrier, that's just simply because it's burning more calories. This is where eating 5-6 times will help...

    Energy source hierarchy is glycogen -> fatty acid -> amino acid. If she's sedentary outside of her daily workout routine, it's unlikely she's burning all her energy reserves and eating at her protein. Not knowing her full situation, I can only assume the 10 pounds she gained is pretty much all...

    I am still running, but decided to go back to some weight lifting last night. I was surprised I was lifting where I left off, as if I didn't skip a beat, even though I haven't lifted for over 3 weeks. My squat is at 115 pounds now (I was squatting 105 before I started focusing on running) and my...

    Thanks for the great reply Eomer. I think I'm going to settle for a used cb500f that's on craigslist right now. I'm probably going to ding it up learning so no point buying a new motorcycle and paying 30-40% price premium over a good condition used one. I looked at the KTM but it's going to cost...

    That's good man. Fitness will always be a work in progress. It has taken me 6+ years to get to where I want to be in terms of physical fitness and weight, but I am still looking to lower my body fat by a couple percent.

    A couple years back I posted pictures of myself when I dropped down to 153-154 pounds. Unfortunately, 2015 was a hectic year for me. I only gained around 4-5 pounds of weight, but it was mostly fat, so my pants became really tight (my belly was sticking out). According to my Fitbit Aria, I was...

    See, this isn't even anecdotal evidence that ATI/AMD products are crap. This is bad luck with DOA products. I've had that too, and with Nvidia. It didn't stop me from buying a certain brand. Just because it happened once, it doesn't mean the product is shit. On top of that, you've got the vendor...
