*.* 2014 General Fitness Thread *.*
Welcome to 2014! Now get your ass in top physical condition!
No one else started it so here it is! **From the 2013 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. |

A month ago my 2 mile run was 21:30. I was pushing it to run a mile straight. Today I made it 1.8 miles without walking. After running 3-4 Times a week my time today was 18:53. Really enjoying running, throwing in weights as well. Going every other day. Tried running back to back days last week but my shins were bugging me. I'm not sure if it's because I'm out of shape, my shoes, or my running style.

So I bought some ice packs and ace bandages and laid down an ace bandage, put the icepack on and held it on with the other ace bandage. I didn't really have time to ice them during the day, and that really did help. Not sure I'd suggest icing all night (until the icepacks got warm), but ice them as often as you can, and the ace bandage thing will definitely press the cold in. Just wrap from the outside in, meaning wrap it so you push your calf in towards the middle. |

Make sure they have good arch support. I think there was a place in KC that was good at fitting shoes for runners. These other guys would know more of what was available in bigger towns.

Those power-lifter Adidas lewdog owns are really nice. He is an Ox that doesn't fart around when it comes to lifting.

Anyone mess around with pre-workout stim drinks? Found a couple bottles of the original formula Noxipro with DMAA in it, which is now banned. My god that shit is insane..

Yup. Me, too. I honestly feel that I could do nothing but deadlift and maintain a pretty good physique. I start every session with the deadlift, and it all feels like gravy after that...
that being said, deadlift is also the thing I dread most on days when I'm just not feeling it. There's nothing worse than knowing I need to pull X amount, but the ramp ups to X amount are already harder than they should be. Sometimes that shit just feels heavier than at other times.
