thebrick's - What are you Training Today?

[Phoe2006]

Brick what's up man glad to see you're still hitting it hard brother. Keep up all the positive vibes like I told you before they're contagious and really help some of us out as well.

AA tell u the truth after a few months I usually gotta take a couple days off as well. Here lately with all the home crap, basketball games, etc I haven't needed 2 days in a row that weren't already forced in me do to a basketball game or something else. Listen to your body like others said and make it a lazy weekend if you need one and just spend some quality time with ur fiancé.

T I wish I still was able to workout with my old training partner from 13+ years ago sometimes he was a beast 270 below 10% he was 6'3 or so. He's the guy who got me into all this. Always pushed me harder and knew exactly what to do to get the best workouts out of me.

Well, I had good intentions. Workout didn't happen. Damn fatigue closed in on me. Aiming for back tomorrow. Gotta keep moving as much as I can. This crap even affects my vision from time to time. Like sparkles or blurry spots, then it goes away.

Phoe, you are dead on man... Not taking a cruise (training cruise that is) since summer of 2013 and dropping kcals a but then trying to rock doubles just did me in... At least my girl is looking out for me and making sure I do take my rest and telling me to get my ass on the treadmill and walk instead of training with her. Gonna hop in the Epsom salt bath in a few and relax


Brick, all these bumps in the road are making your spirit stronger. Take each day as it comes and fight the battle at hand and stay positive throughout.

Woke up and hit some lite bis and tris, nothing near failure, just trying to get some blood moving. Then I walked on a an incline for a while...

Took another epsom salt and eucalyptus bath this morning and I am already feeling better. So relaxing.

I went on a quest yesterday to find some kimchi... BOTH asian gocers by me are closed and another asian grocery stopped selling kimchi! Whenever I need help recovering, kimchi seems to help. It kind of helps my digestion and gets me back on track

No gym today. need a break before heavy back tomorrow.
Brick I put a like on that last post because you are listening to your body but not letting your body dictate. Rest is fine. Might help appetite as well.
Phoe really good training partners are like a needle in a haystack. Very few and far between.My w/o yesterday was really good with my old pard.
AA get some long sleep . two benedryls and about a solid 10 hrs do you good.
Everyone have a great day... T

10 hours is almost 3x as long as my normal night's sleep lol I usually rock a solid 4 haha

 

[Phoe2006]

My girl picked me up some melatonin...she said she used to use it and it helped her sleep... worth a shot... Gonna give 3mg a try tonight

 

[Phoe2006]

Yea depending on what you're running that should work and ofcourse how much you're running. If you happen to be running tren at a higher dose you might need to double up

 

[thebrick]

Well gents, I made it happen. Felt better today, more energy. Trained back. Stamina and strength are still off and will be during this treatment I guess. There are a few friends at my gym pretty amazed I am even in there at all. I told them, if I don't, I'll go crazy.

Atom, you need more sleep than that. Melatonin works OK for me, just take it an hour or two before you want to call it a night. Crazy dreams for me on that. I like benedryl and zzQuil too. No fog for me the next AM. Sleep gets those batteries recharged for the gym.

T- get that rest day in and you will be ready to rock it tomorrow.

You sound a lot a like me in the sleep department. We need to get more sleep brutha.:lightbulb:

 

[Ironbuilt]

Brick you are an animal brutha..You training and doing your other unwanted hobby should show everyone there is no reason a person cant train ..im impressed..
Legs day. Nothing great but ive taken up walking/ busing to the gym as forced cardio and mental clarity. But I must say the hills I walk to get to the bus are gonna skinny me out ..lol.

Hey T. The carribean queen called and said you left this in her hotel room. Wtf ? You said it was powder sugar on your sweat pants.?

 

[Phoe2006]

Fixing to go do some legs. Hope everyone's day is a good one

LOL Check back with me when you're 52.
Funny thing is if i'm on steady gh my sleep i s so much better and i need less sleep.. hhhmmmm interesting..........T

 

[turbobusa]

Well one more rest day. Actually this puts me right on time.I'm busy trying to rebuild strength and size with basics.Once I'm where i feel I need to be then
nice cycle doubled up volume and all the food i will care to ingest.My biggest concern is bring my cardio level up for heavy volume. Yet here my dumbass has yet to get rolling on the cardio.
Well tomorrow is my 10th anniversery. This is my 3rd marraige.
Have to say 3rd time was the charm. Got a good one.
Thanks, T..............

Yeah.... It took me 27 fucking years to realize sleep is important lol

Since I started doing nightly epon salt and eucalyptus soaks my sleep has improved. It helps me calm my mind...

LOL Check back with me when you're 52.

Hmmm..... GH should be rolling into the picture shortly It's time

Again, took it easy today.... walking on an incline and did some laterals and upright rows just for shits and giggles.

Starting to feel better... appetite still isn't back to normal. Just been trying to get my kcals any way I can. Lots and lots of shakes... getting most of my fats from coconut oil.... Literally just grabbing tablespoons of it and eating it to get enough fats in my diet lol Gotta do what you gotta do...

I haven't seen my girl all week so this weekend is going to be good... Might pop a cialis for fun

 

[Ironbuilt]

Wtf ..how did they know ?

 

[thebrick]

T- Happy Anniversary bro! Big smiles from me!
Phoe! Hope you had great b-day brother! You're a good guy.
Atom - glad you are getting some shut eye. Keep that up and the gains will continue! Give it a little time for the magic to happen.
OMG IB! I was in chemo ALL DAY today and that photo is what I needed to see with my tired-ass eyes! LMAO! Home run!

Hoping to hit guns tomorrow. Lets see what happens.

 

[Daniel11]
