Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

[-G$-]

Right, so what exactly the fukk is mike on?

 

[Jesus]

I need a break from the gym...not feeling the shyt no more. 5x5 or something to shy away from the gym or maybe a deload phase.

 

[Jesus]

The less amount of days your workout, the less calories you would need to maintain or gain?

6 day routine with 4k daily vs. a 3 day with 3.5k daily? So pretty much the more offdays the less you would need to eat to gain or maintain.

 

[RTF]

You workout 6 times a week? Damn you dedicated.

6-8hrs a week dedicated?

No relationship, work overtime or school right now...it's my therapy.

Over training

Its the same shyt, you dont burn that many calories when you lift

You prob feel like shyt cause your volume is too high... if you are doing 6 days a week of lifting

Dial it back

Are you doing PHAT or something? Six days is a lot of lifting.

I was the same way, but I'm pretty sure a lot of it has to do with poor squat form and/or lack of core strength.

To fix this, I started doing 5X5 squats twice per week, starting at 135 lbs and adding 5 lbs each workout until I eventually get up to the point where I can't do 5X5 any more.

I like this a lot, starting at a lower weight that I can easily do 5X5 is allowing me to concentrate on fixing my form and I already feel like I am much better at squatting after only doing this for 2 weeks.

Also, I feel like correcting my squat form is helping me correct my deadlift form as well.

Learning to keep my shoulders tight and locked and my lower back locked is translating well to both exercises.
