Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

Oh cool! Good to know! I figured there was a little science behind it!

You've had some great workouts and strong numbers even being deload! Nerve testing sounds horrible! I've only heard stories!

yeah and it has no impact and the cals dont count against my numbers. so i freaking love the stuff. that and a happy gut is awesome for me.

to be honest about the nerve testing i am sick to my stomach thinking about it. i have a super high tolerance to pain but they do both sides for comparrison which super extra sucks. i feel like i am nearing the end of my run at being able to do what i do. that's the crappy part. the needles and electricity make it even crappier haha.

yes their is significance to the kraut but i also do enjoy it also. the kraut aids in digestion detoxing and a host of other benefits. i found that i dont tolerate a lot of foods that are high in fiber as i have gotten older like more than a cup of oats a day or broccoli in any amount. with the kraut addition i can pretty much eat anything i want with fiber and it doesnt destroy my guts. plus it is a no impact food other than a little sodium so i can eat it for the duration of dieting

No doubt! That's great!!

So is there a significance to the sour kraut or do you just enjoy eating it?

yes their is significance to the kraut but i also do enjoy it also. the kraut aids in digestion detoxing and a host of other benefits. i found that i dont tolerate a lot of foods that are high in fiber as i have gotten older like more than a cup of oats a day or broccoli in any amount. with the kraut addition i can pretty much eat anything i want with fiber and it doesnt destroy my guts. plus it is a no impact food other than a little sodium so i can eat it for the duration of dieting

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

the best part about it is you can see my transitions from off seasons to preps and where stuff stopped working and had to be changed. i probably could even go back to what wasnt working and add it back in a bit now and it would probably work again for a while. that's the best thing about keeping a good detailed log, knowing what is working and what you have done to keep it working. that and when you get hurt you can always go back and fix what may have led up to the injury

done for the day. actually got in a pretty good workout today. everything is feeling pretty good, pump was good and joints are pretty good. i do still have some congestion going on though and i am still hocking up snot. so breath control and ab pressure was a little tough today but nowhere near what it was on tuesday. i was nice and surprised and how nice and quick the weights moved on squats. i didnt lose any speed on any of my sets and got them all done in about 10 mins total. so that's trucking considering

front hip raise 80x10/3
modified special banded stiff leg deads with glute emphasis 50x10/4

done for the day. again another day hindered by congestion and sinus pressure. i took the squats super slow and deliberate and i think it made it 10x worse. the pause for 2 sec at the bottom was horrible so i knocked it off at 275. i am getting better but anything that puts pressure on my sinuses is a shot in the dark if i am going to pass out or not. got a damn good pump though and moved super fast considering
