*.* 2013 General Fitness Thread *.*
Welcome to 2013! Now get your ass in top physical condition!
**From the 2012 Thread** If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs If you have questions about the SS programs, look here: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started. Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE: http://madcow.hostzi.com/5x5_Program/Linear_5x5.htm If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point. |

Based upon the information you gave, it does. Exercise induced compartment syndrome develops when running quite often, as the forces from striking the ground transfer to your lower leg, causing swelling, pain and cramping. It happens in a similar location to shin splints, but feels very different. It can be especially bad in overweight individuals, as they have much greater deceleratory forces when striking the ground while running.
I mean, it's certainly possible that it's hydration. But that is unlikely to happen so often that it negatively impacts your running (especially since you said you attempt to hydrate often) and also unlikely to happen in the exact same place every time. I would make sure you're stretching out your calves especially well, along withy the hamstrings. Roll out your IT band and see if that helps. |

I am slightly overweight but nothing major (6'2", 200). I'll definitely try working the muscle a bit more before going.

I developed it when I wasn't overweight, either. It just happens in some people. The numbness only comes when you just keep running through it, and not everyone develops it. It just depends on the severity.
You might also try switching to a forefoot strike to see if that helps. |

I'm a huge fan of anything that's low/non-impact. Biking is awesome.

I have heard the changes are a pretty good read from his other 5/3/1 books. Might need to get the PDF after a while but I also just dropped a ton of $ on protein sales for the 4th of July so will have to wait.

Your obliques are definitely looking more ripped.
Your woman was sexually excited just taking that photograph.

On Day 3 now... feeling absolutely exhausted. I am trying to figure out how I am going to have the energy for a workout tonight.
I don't think I felt like this before when I cut carbs way down. Will this feeling going away as my body adapts? Or do I actually need to be eating more carbs? |

Hate to bump my own post, but was hoping for some sort of enlightenment:
Does anyone have any experience with SNI Whey Protein? I am curious as to the taste and have also heard rumors that their nutritional facts were misleading, but their company says that has been corrected and was an issue a few years ago, but isn't any longer. |
