Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

After 25 mins I stopped playing and did another leg workout . Came to the realization that I’m not gonna get fat no matter what I do if I start bulking

Squatted again but this time I remembered to do heavy walkouts of 10-25% heavier weight than my 1rep max to get over the mental block

So you just walk it out and back in a few times without doing a squat just to feel comfortable?

Why you trying to @Gully Bull me King?......

have me upping the weight with my knee valgus, poor shoulder lock in, and weak abductors..... nikkas don't want you to be great...... But God Did..

You right. Lemme fall back. It's not like I've actually ran the program you're running right now.

Oh wait...

Yep that’s the jist of it. I walked out 405 and noticed my mid back was lagging behind the rest of my back in keeping the weight sturdy. Also, my walk out at 365 was a bit too wide. Just little tidbits like that

Oh wait...

How he supposed to keep upping the weight with weak hip abductor/adductor and lat issues

Did you have them specific issues?

Because I woulda gave him the same advice you gave him



Up the weight

Fine I'll up the weight..... and just be concious of my weaknesses. May the heavier weights provide me strength for corrections...

Can I lose weight with a combination of kettlebell and dumbbell exercises along with push-ups and sit-ups? I got two 16kg kettlebells at home and two 20lb dumbbells..I’m basically starting from the beginning as a 300 lb er. worked out hard last night…working out is getting fun to me because I can then feel my strength/endurance increasing. Been working for about a week

It's gonna be more about diet and cardio for you.

Can you lose weight lifting weights, yes, but unless you're doing heavy barbell lifts or metcons a la CrossFit, it's prolly not gonna be as dramatic as you think. You basically need to turn the KBs and DBs into implements for a weighted full-body x cardio hybrid.

Make sure to eat fewer calories (start at 500) than you burn each day, and start walking (least 30 minutes a day).

Yes, but if you still eat the same amount of calories as a baby elephant it’s not gonna make much of a difference

Take any fitness tracker/watch numbers with a grain of salt.

Lol at least it’s something to work with

 

[trap101-ETHout-Allegri-In]

I'm not.

So what do you recommend I do to address some. of the issues?

Cause load wise my legs ain't getting sore and feel like there is a bunch more runway before I would stall (that squatting every session is empowering for real ), but the upper body doesn't feel up to supporting the load.
