Once I start the actual C25K program I will add it to my log. I am currently just walking briskly on my off days. My knee still isn't 100% and I have something going on with my heel in my other leg.

Weight: 201
10 minutes stretching
10 minutes warm up walk on treadmill...
I am starting my fitness log here to keep track and document my return to lifting weights. My focus has changed quite a bit since my shoulder injury. I still want lifting weights to be core exercise activity but I don't want to focus on it to detriment of all other things like I did in the past...
As already mentioned, you should take a look at your caloric breakdown between your carbs, protein, and fat. A carb centric way of eating is not the best way to go if you have anything resembling a sedentary lifestyle.
If you were a construction worker or someone who did hard labor, I could...
This will make it easier for us here in California to get CCW permits in the future. It's just all of the money and time wasted in the courts that will be needed to get us there that is the annoying part.
I am a gun owner and participate in the shooting sports. I don't like restrictions on my...
Just wanted to update this thread. I am going to have my final physical therapy session for the shoulder today.
It is now 6 months post surgery. I still have issues with external rotation. My shoulder isn't there yet in regards any sort of pushing motion. I feel pain doing things like sleeping...
My pysical therapist prescribed me the same exercises as SociallyChallenged mentioned in his post.
I still have pain in my knee and it has been 6 weeks now. The pain is less but it is still there.
I would go easy because the last thing you want is to be out of action for weeks on end but...
Yup. I'm not sure why folks feel like they need to constantly play Tier 10 tanks in order to have fun.
I have the whole Russian Heavy line elited at this point and almost have the entire Russian TD elited, along with the American Medium and TD lines researched. I don't find playing high tier...
In the morning I will hit the gym and get a back workout in.
Mid morning I'll go to the range to sight in a new rifle and maybe chrono test some new loads if I feel like reloading some ammo tonight.
Been a long week and I am tired. A friend of mine died on Monday and I am thinking some...
I try to work in fish at least 3 times a week in either lunch or dinner.
Once or twice a week I will mix a pouch of the albacore and a pouch of salmon in a tuna/salmon salad for dinner.
When I don't go the tuna route, I mix 2 tins of sardines and 1 tin of kippered herring up with a bunch of...
I took Percocet for the first week after my shoulder surgery and stopped taking them because I was worried about something like what you desribed happening. I ended up turning in half of my first bottle into the pharmacy because I didn't want it in the house and I didn't want to flush it. My...
You are right. It is the pressing that is causing the issues. I have no problems with any type of pulling/rowing motion and am actually back to pre-injury strength with my back workouts.
I will heed your advice and just lay off the chest stuff. If I had the range of motion, I would be...
Week 22 Progress Report
I took a break from lifting weights and going to the gym. I was experiencing a lot of pain and inflammation in the shoulder so I decided to give it some more time to recover.
For me the hardest part about exercise and lifting weights is walking away and healing. Prior...
I went to the doctor, got the initial consultation and was referred to a sports medicine specialist and had x-rays performed.
After meeting with the sports medicine specialist, who reviewed my x-rays, the diagnosis was patellar-tendonitis. Apparently when I was a kid I had Osgood-Schlatter in...
I have bailed out enough friends from jail to know you will get arrested. So don't delude yourself if you think you won't get arrested for getting into a serious brawl in a public place such as bar.
Or maybe you think it's just like TV where people get in fights and then get up and shake hands...
Going to see a doctor this morning. The knee feels the same and it has been a week since the injury. I have been taking NSAIDS and resting it with no change.
I'm hoping I get more info than the useful bs topical exam.
Yes, it seems to hurt when I first stand up. The pain seems to go back forth without any real rhyme or reason. I guess I will do the smart thing and rest it. It's a bit of a bummer as I have not gone to the gym to rest my shoulder.
I may have to change my routine up and follow the couch to 2k...
Folks,
I started jogging last week. Been doing a very basic conditioning routine of jog walks 3 times a week (M-W-F) of 30 minutes plus a 10 minute warmup and 20 minute cool down. I went through my first week without any joint issues whatsoever.
Long story short, I started my second week by...
I have been lifting weights since I was 19 (11 years). At first it was purely for recreational and cosmetic reasons. I wanted to lift weights because that's what guys did and I wanted big muscles. Needless to say the first couple of years of weightlifting weren't my best as I was a total noob...
I haven't been able to do squats since my shoulder surgery due to range of motion issues with my arm. I can't get it back far enough to support the bar comfortably.
I am looking forward to being able to do squats again but the first couple of days after my first squat session are going to...
I can't speak on your form as I have to see it but in regards to shoes, I have always done squats/deadlifts with just my socks on. I used to wear my regular gym shoes (a running shoe of some sort) but about 3 years ago I restarted squat/deadlift with a focus on free-weight exercises only and...
This thread took a turn for the funny. Thanks for the morning laugh folks.
To the OP, you don't want to go into an interview with a future employer and have to explain the assault and battery misdemeanor on your record. It is not worth it.
I have a good friend who had to deal with all of...
Week 17 Progress Report:
Sorry for missing last week. Was super busy at work and came home pretty exhausted afterwords so I didn't get a chance to update.
Shoulder pretty much feels the same. I am still having the same issues with external rotation. Today after my back workout I went over to...
Not sure how old you are so I will assume you are a full grown adult. If you are in high school or a teenager, go ahead and forget everything I wrote below because you won't get it anyway.
Speaking for myself physical confrontation is not appropriate unless it is a life and death situation...
Week 15 Progress Report:
I am still working on external rotations and loosening up the globular capsule.
I have begun going heavier on my row-centric back workouts. More weight, less reps.
This is my second week of doing a chest workout which consists of free weight bench press, free weight...
The process has been to go in to see the physical therapist every 2 weeks, measure my progress, and then get prescribed a set of exercises according to where I am at. I would say through this process from the first time I went in, my exercises regimen has changed over about 4 times.
One thing I...
