Still feeling that strain in the left side of my lower back. Today is supposed to be legs, which include barbell squats and leg presses. I'm thinking this sounds like a possible recipe for disaster. Any recommendations? Extra lunges and step ups instead? I'm going to try some goblet squats to see what happens. Supposed to row 2000m as well.
I'd say definitely bring it up to your trainer. Aches like that is usually your body compensating for another part of your body being injured, and you're just overusing the sore area. Hopefully he can compensate your workout accordingly.

I've known a bunch of skinny guys that were in terrible physical fitness and looked nothing like that guy.
Don't waste your time.. He has shown he does not know what he is talking about. ;)

Exactly. Plus, you are paying him $ to help you so asking him a question is not bugging him. ;)

I mean, if you're just ****ing around in the gym and doing whatever and you look like this, I'll just say congratulations to you on your awesome genetics and sit here being really jealous, because this took a shitload of hard work for me.
:drool:

I mean, umm...








































...just :drool:

I know he says that, but I still feel guilty. He does work another FT job, do his own training, and go to school.

Don't feel like that. He's the pro helping you out, and you have a question that needs help being answered. It's what you're paying him for. Stop doubting yourself, lol.

And Silock is one fit dude, but I think I'm more jealous of his hair line than his physique. :D

**** that. It's ridiculous what those guys make. It's not even a real skill. Make him earn it.

This could not be further from the truth.

Eh, I have that dude on ignore. Must be an obvious troll. I definitely consider it a skilled position. I know my trainer went through classes and certification (NASM). He's also a certified sports nutritionist. Also, working with different types of people can be difficult, let alone doing so in a way that will keep them motivated.

Got some new shoes. Brooks brand. Ran about one tenth of a mile before I could no longer take the pain in my shins. It's really bumming me. I was actually enjoying running. I went from 242 to 230 this month. Hate to stop running.

Any way you could do some biking instead?

You may not like it as much but it's a hell of a lot easier on your joints and shins and all that. Maybe you could cycle off another 20 or 30 pounds and then try running again...

Just a suggestion.

I'm going to have to use the cycle. The mile walk I did today plus weights made me feel like it was a wasted workout day.

The big issue with the cycle is the seat hurts my taint and my arms get no work at all.

There are alternatives --

I put in 30+ minutes a day on this thing (man in photo is not me). I used to run hardcore but the pain/injuries I just couldn't tolerate anymore.

I've never really gotten the hang of the elliptical. It always feels weird using it.
