Intense training leads to growth

[PHD]

You guys ever train so hard that your quads, glutes, and hams hurt so bad that they feel like you took a bad shot in those areas? Yea that’s how I feel after training legs the other day. Yesterday hurt so bad I could barely move and this morning isn’t much better lol

You ever train legs so hard that you walk like a pregnant woman for 3 days? That’s how I know I trained them hard. Specifically the abductor machine!

I train legs hard enough to walk like a new born giraffe does that count?!

Lmao yes. I love finishing up a leg exercise then pacing back and forth trying to see if my legs are going to buckle below me.

Hahahahaha that’s a good one @Ironside that counts bud lol

Not sure I can say I’ve walked like a pregnant lady but definitely a crippled man trying to run from the law kidding I don’t run

Lol the abductor machine always makes me walk with my feet and knees turned out the next day like a pregnant woman walks. The machine at the gym I go to now doesn’t go up in weight that high so I max it out at like 260 I think it is and just rep until I can’t anymore for 5 sets.

This post got me thinking @PHD Funny how you never hear ‘normal’ people say things like we do- never hear golfers judging how good their round was by how much they hurt or a builder saying how the wall he built yesterday must have been great because he’s in agony. I know we are the minority in this world but surely we belong in an asylum or something similar- we truly are fucking bonkers. Wouldn’t change it though for anything lol.

I’ve said it before that it takes a little bit of crazy to be the way we are. OCD only barely scratches the surface as an explanation lol. We’re all a bit masochistic and nutty and that’s why I love this lifestyle and the people that live it along side us
