Tell them you can't afford it and will have to go to X gym instead. Be prepared to walk out. Often, they'll wave it, maybe commit to a year or two or something of that nature.
Thanks guys! I feel like Im in a good spot for right now. Mini bulk in the fall, maintain in the winter and then cut weight again in the spring summer is the current plan. Since I'll have more time on my hands, I want to buy an actual diet plan from RP and see where it takes me.
Look at this guy! Nice job man!

Have been bad...
...skipped yesterday because of a massive hangover. Skipping today because it's just too freaking hot and I can't be arsed. Diet still under control though.

What's too hot in England?

I'm reasonably certain I've been this way since birth...
...and half Welsh, half Spanish.

I see, after Brexit, Psycho is showing his true colors.

Psh, it's only a matter of time before they try and force me out.
I feel you there. I remember feeling a bit better about myself when I was slightly smaller so I guess I will get myself back to that weight.
I will be waiting to see some updates from you.
NO!
Holy hell, I have always imagined Psycho is American. Dammit, if I will drag my ass to UK next year he better come and say hi.
I have actually already once accidentally ended up in Wales for a day.I still haven't seen any full body shots of you (not that I know of at least). I am sure you have epic legs.Bleh, I'm at the "you're too skinny" stage again. Fucking hate how my face loses all the fat first.
That said, I was at a party where pretty much everyone felt up my thighs... so that was entertaining. Got a number of "holy shit"s.
And Wales... seriously. Now I understand why you bike around a lot. At least the places I ended up where absolutely beautiful.

What are people's opinion here regarding too much protein in one meal? Is it a myth that your body can't digest tons of protein at once?
mdsfx
Member
The only time that's an issue, as far as I know, is if the protein is in liquid form, which moves through your body fairly quickly, unlike solid foods which will stay in your system much longer, giving your body more time to make use of (digest) the protein.

That makes sense, thanks for the answer.

My legs are junk. My hamstrings are junk. My hips... oh my hips... my hips are total and complete junk. Horrible workout today.
Kids, never go 38 years without using your legs.

Yikes, you OK?
36 here. Working on that.
Yeah I am good, I caught my balance and finished the set. Luckily it wasn't a heavier set or it might have been bad. :/
It's on my list.

I impulse bought some cheap hand strengthener squeeze things, got them back home and it turns out they're too weak. I can't return them but still want to use them, should I be squeezing and holding? Even though they're easy to squeeze I do start to feel it after holding for like 10 seconds or longer
I just squeeze mine repeatedly without stopping for a while. Eventually, even though the first 20 squeezes were easy, it burns and actually hurts. Try that!
This post is great when reading it without any context

My left groin is paining for 2,5+ months, shit. I have to admit, I haven't given it enough rest and skipped only few leg days. I realized leg press hurt the most which is why I omit it entirely. Guess I'll have to skip squats and leg press until the pain is gone?
Looooooool

good tip, I'll do it this way. It'll be easier to keep each arm even when I'm doing reps rather than duration. I did a set of 30 just now, you're right I started to feel it just before the 20 mark. thanks!
I also impulse bought a jump rope. took it down to my basement where my exercise room is and the ceiling is too low. I'll have to do it outside in the heat, booo

Is it a hernia? Better get that checked than wait until the pain is gone because it may never be gone. If not a hernia, I find squats with proper form actually rehabilitating. I had sharp pains in the groin sometimes when I trained legs, but ever since I do standard squats it's gone. Just lift a weight you can manage and progress slowly, making sure the knees point out and not in.

Not sure if it is. I'm considering getting an appointment next week. The pain is not strong but it's there. I don't feel it during any exercise other than leg press I think. Last time I did leg press it felt like my groin was about to pop which was really hurtful. Needless to say, I called it a day. I do feel it sometimes during the day.
Thanks for your help.

Someone with good intentions made me think I'm smaller than I was this time last year. I certainly spend less time lifting than I used to (25 min per day versus 45+), but it made my stomach drop a bit. So today I lifted for 45 minutes to see if i could get that pump back. I'm fairly satisfied/relieved. Still working on shoulders and upper chest, but I can certainly blow my arms up if i hit them hard.
I used to have groin pain when low bar squatting. It went away after I started breaking at the knees instead of the hips at the top of the lift.

You look awesome dude... Please don't listen to what others say!
Listen to the champ. Wisdom fo reals.
Crossfit Games are live right now, today is the first day for individual competition.
http://games.crossfit.com/
For people who dislike Crossfit, it's worth noting that the professionals typically don't do Crossfit to train for the games, most adopt an Oly/Powerlift routine with specific cardio/HIIT work. It's fun to watch this kind of competition around barbell and various work.

I mostly watch for Katrin and Sara, and my man crush Matt Fraser
Nope. Just got the email.
