Second week in the gym... now I’m in the hospital.

too many goofies out here like OP who dont do the research and just go to gym and imitate the workout of the biggest dude he sees there thinking tthe same routine is good for a newbie .

All newbies should be doing the strong-lifts 5x5’s and they can create a great foundation and amazing body changes

 

[O.T.I.S.]

CrossFit is stupid and dangerous. Stay away from that cult. I knew they were about to have you doing some bullshyt

This

literally a fukking cult that has you doing exercises that take years of training just to do some of them PROPERLY yet alone with heavy ass weight.


Your homeboy dumb af and might not be black

He was working out too hard for his fitness level, basically breaking down his muscle so much that he is now pissing it out.

I’ve been working out for mad years and I never heard of this. Put an old head on, how do you know if your working out too hard?

No they shouldn’t

They should be doing light weight at high reps to learn proper form and prepare their bodies for a heavy 5x5 routine or future routines period.

You just don’t jump in and do 80% of your fukking max 5 times with improper form

 

[Jesus Is Lord]

Black piss?!?

 

[Jesus Is Lord]

The kidney damage is due to the breakdown of muscle releasing CK and if too much goes to the kidney it will overwhelm the kidneys. You gotta give IV fluids at a very high rate to help flush this out of kidneys. It’s also seen in marathon runners

So how do you avoid it?

When your piss comes out black instead of clear

So he was already lifting heavy weight

Should have stuck to what he knows.

You ain't mid 20s no more bruh

I'm saying you didn't need to jump straight from bodyweight pull up to 45+ you could've worked your way up. Attach a 10 then next workout attach a 25. And most importantly hydrate hydrate hydrate

He should’ve jumped on a lat-pulldown machine and did maybe half of his bodyweight for high reps for atleast a couple week to a month then gradually work his way up to his bodyweight on that THEN go with his own bodyweight...

or you can skip a step and try to do his bodyweight for low reps but it wouldn’t be as efficient imo

Never change fam, never change

The L shape pain happens to me when i dont stretch either in btw bicep sets or after the excercises. It has a simple cure.

your kidney taking a beating is curious. How does crossfit equal to that?

That and its a cramp

It locks into place.

Happens to me too sometimes but i know how to stop it

He should take potassium supplements too

 

[the bossman]

ion see why ppl think that bullshyt...

i know a muhfukka who been a legit diet ..for 6yrs....nikka aint lost shyt but her edges....

Because nikka was posting shyt that is flat out wrong like he usually does.

Diet is ONE part of the equation to determine how healthy you are. Not the only thing. Ignoring the rest is gonna be to your detriment

Combination of exercise (including the time spent at the gym) + diet + sleep is what determines how healthy you are and quality of life. Skip out on any one of those 3 pillars and you're really doing your body and yourself a disservice

 

[╭∩╮(-_-)╭∩╮]

Just started working out... I was gradually working my way up in weights. Feeling good as hell. Trying to get a nice physique going.

then...

I went to the gym with my bruh. nikka had me doing CrossFit with weights.

long story short... he had me do intense pull ups with a 45lb plate between my legs. Now my arms are swollen and locked up at the elbow in a L shape. My thighs and mid section on fire.

I was admit into ICU with Rhabdomyolysis. On an IV they are saying my kidneys was taking a beating.

ISYMFS.

I disagree It worked for me and countless other people

I don’t think that’s the protocol for most 5x5 Beginner Programs. They start you at the Oly Bar and work up if you haven’t lifted before.
