*.* 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. |

Seems somewhat better today - yet def. not normal yet.
I'm thinking Sat. or maybe even Sunday before I'm ready to suit-up again. This sucks. |

Do 6-8 qtr mile sprints or try the Sprint 8 routine that a couple of guys have recommended on here. I try to throw something like that in at least once or twice each week. It's a really quick workout & it will totally kick your ass.

I've never had a shoulder injury (knock on pressed particle board) but I would think that avoiding surgery would be wise. My wife had major shoulder surgery and she often wishes that she didn't. Same story with one of my workout buddies. I've had a couple of knee surgeries and it seems like it's close to impossible to mess up that joint. The shoulder is probably the most complicated joint in the body though. |

I started doing thighmaster machine exercises and realized I never work that part of my legs. I hurt.

Weird strain in my groin from hiking with my kids this weekend (my 70 lb. special needs son needs lots of help, and I have to lift him onto and down from boulders when we get adventurous). Anyway, it isn't sore and doesn't really hurt, but when I do certain motions, it sends a super sharp pain through my groin. Feels like a rotator cuff, but it's like in my groin.
So I'm resting this week.

I seperated my shoulder on the 4th of July and i still can't bench right. It hurts when i get the bar to my chest. I can incline dumbbell press, but straight barbell bench is no bueno. And it sucks because I was at my all time high
