Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

[Numpsay]

172.8 lbs. This is what the scale has told me everyday for the past 2 weeks. I though the shyt might be broke, so I grabbed a 15lb weight and stepped on and it told me 187.8 lbs. So the shyt is acurrate. I just want to get up to 180-185 brehs, this bulking shyt ain't working for me

Anyone ever notice the people harping about not overtraining are those that don't have the same results as people who just say fukk it and go wild with it?

"Nah, working your abs everyday is pointless" - Dude with beer belly
"Yeah, you can hit them everyday, that's what I did" - Dude with abs that look like rock formations


"Nah man, you really only need to hit your biceps once a week, indirect work will get them to grow" - Dude with peashooter arms

"I used to train my shyts everyday muthafukka" - CT "That nikka" Fletcher


I think I'm gonna start throwing the "dont overtrain crowd"' opinion in the bushes, show me results then speak, cause the people who saying to just do that shyt everyday got them.

I do think a lot of people that are not experienced overtrain - burnout - don't make gains.

But once you really know what you're doing. Know your body. Already made great gains, you know what works for you.

This is something I battle with a lot.

When I first started training, I went with my boy and really just wanted to lift more than him - that competitive spirit. So my whole training was about strength and how much I could lift.

Now i'm more strict with my form and it has meant dropping down in weights.

Depends on what you're doing. I believe overtraining is real. But certain exercises can be done more often than others(pull-ups, dips, push-ups etc)..

But I've gone to the gym still sore from a previous workout and my body didn't feel quite right, or at 100%. Essentially my body was telling me, if I continue to try and push through this threshold, I'll soon be looking at a major injury....

I've made it this far pushing my body too the limit, without any injuries, I feel no need to switch it up now...

My 2 cents...

The other part of that is guys like Rashid, CT etc do this basically for a living. Is the average person resting and eating to be able to recover in that form? Likely not, there is a line you have to be smart on. You have to go as hard as possible but use common sense. If your rest and nutrition don't support a overtrain lifestyle, it's not going to end well.

I'd say it depends on the exercise. Heavy deads every day might fukk ones world up

We are having a company breakfast next week and honestly, I don't want to fukk up my diet. And it's not really the diet part per say, but I've been doing IF and the breakfast occurs during that time. If I say I'm on a diet I know they'll point me to some "healthy" alternative but that's not the real issue. Then I don't want to seem stuck up or anti social because I didn't want to eat the food. Not sure what I'm going to do.
