    Strained pectoralis muscle

    Pretty positive this is strictly muscular in nature. Slight bruising in the area also. I’d call it a moderate strain

    Strained pectoralis muscle

    There’s pain when I make that movement (or any movement), but it’s isolated to the tie-in area and a little further down my pec. Tender to palpation there as well. No pain at all along the clavicle.

    Strained pectoralis muscle

    Man, I’m going to have to take several days off from everything. I did it this afternoon, and it’s progressively gotten more painful. There’s really no movement of that arm that doesn’t exacerbate the pain. I can’t even raise elbow above shoulder at the moment, so no squats even. Oh well, it is...

    Strained pectoralis muscle

    Strained my upper pec/shoulder tie in today. I’m so pissed. Training has been going great and now this set back. I’m on cycle, so it’s especially not timely. As anxious as I am to get back to normal and continue my hard work, I’m looking at the big picture and want to make sure I don’t aggrevate...

    Gym Pet Peeves

    Assholes who do their dumbbell curls standing about six inches in front of the dumbbell racks. Take your lazy ass two giant steps back so everyone else can access the rack too!!! I get all passive aggressive “EXCUSE ME…anyway I can get to the rack??”

    Upcoming cycle for fall

    Ftiraver…similar to my comment earlier, I have a diet “plan” going into this but will change depending on how I respond. I’ve dialed my diet in here in the past couple months with a maintenance caloric intake around 3200. I train hard and have a hectic life and work schedule (12 hour night...

    Upcoming cycle for fall

    Thanks Fitraver. I thought weeks 16-20 (two weeks after my last test) would indicate pct, but I guess I should have written it down. And yes, I do like deca. I’ve gotten both good size and strength gains in the past. Im wanting this cycle to get my back to my “baseline”. As I said, I haven’t...

    Upcoming cycle for fall

    As far as the training goes, it’s going to stay pretty simple as well. I’m a big believer in training revolving primarily around squats, deads, and presses (chest n shoulders) while trying to gain mass. Most of my energy will go into these. I will hit each 2x every 8 days while on. My ancillary...

    Upcoming cycle for fall

    Haha…I always start with a plan, but it seems like I always have to be ready for an audible! Man, 20-25 lbs may be a bit lofty if I keep my diet tight. Though, I’ve never been off this long before, both with cycling and the gym. So, I’m hoping that my body responds better than ever. As for...

    Upcoming cycle for fall

    Hi guys. Anxiously waiting to start a fall cycle!! Wanted to post is and get any feedback you guys may have before I get started. I’m soon to be 41. I’ve been training seriously since my teens. Various injuries, surgeries, and “life things” led to being out of the gym for over 1.5 years. I knew...

    Just 3 pieces of advice

    I would tell my younger self that one day I won’t be young

    Just 3 pieces of advice

    Man…came here to get pumped up about training and now all I can think of is “chasing the ghosts of their food”. Damn. …and the difference between a guy’s butthole and a girl’s ass is a ton of hair, disgusting man ass, and a set of nuts about an inch away

    My intro to Jiu Jitsu

    Doesn’t seem like the headgear is helping that much. If you get concerned, take some time off. Icing before draining will promote vasoconstriction, and in conjunction with compression help minimize re-filling. Whatever is in there after 4-6 weeks…you’re keeping

    UFC 227 tonight, who is watching?

    I’m watching. Not particularly moved by this card at $64, but I love to watch Mighty Mouse and I admit to getting pulled in by the drama between TJ and Cody
