whenever they say something extremely stupid I will quote them and say it

I am flattered.

there

I found a good reaction

Make it a keyboard macro too.

@Mosely mother of pearl. I just read that.

my shoulders are tired

right one is starting to feel uncomfortable

I think I will lay off of heavy pushing moves for a week

That's the hidden treasure of it @MRB

will just do 99999 push ups instead

@Deleted User 57835c2c do 9 at a time

shoulders should be rested, as well as knees

thats why you should plan your exercies that you always have 1 day of rest for both at least

I work out 3-6x a week

I think no matter what, next week I will do only 1 pushing day and it will be just push ups, plank moves and neck

especially be carefull with knees

give them proper rest

Your future self will thank you.

I do them in many sets of 10 rather than longer sets

is that what you mean?

28958234923 x10 instead of 1 set of 893189841 ?

I might even do isometrics instead even, ultimate joint rest

For example

Do not perform 3 days of ligting

1 day overhead

2nd day bench press

and 3rd day something else which has impact on your shoulders

I do PPL format, so I do not

tops, they get hit 2x/week

instead do bench press one day

deadlift other day

then 1 day rest

then again

overhead

then squat

and rest

etc

I am not lifting weights much at all right now

career too intense

instead I am just doing calisthenics but being really hardass about it

military mindset

in the rest day you can introduce exercises withouth much weight, such as dumbells, boxing, pull ups

I go in phases of lifting vs nonlifting

but I am always working out hard

whenever i got injured in gym it was always due to lack of focus

which is as a rule due to bad sleep or having drinked previous nights

even though i injured myself only lightly 2 times in a span of 2 years

overstreched muscle, fixed with massage

basically, i drift away with my thoughts while working out, then i start doing pull ups and "pumping" my way through repetitions withouth taking care to descend and pull myself up without excessive, erratic motions

when my joints are most worn, I do isometric calisthenics

they are brutal but very easy on joints

if I had to boil it down to one sentence, the key to making calisthenics not gay is to do isometrics

holding half a push up for 5 minutes is infinity times harder than just doing 200 of them

and less taxing on joints

before retiring

my secret to developing self-confidence in combat

it really does approach weight lifting levels of hardassness if done right

strenghten your forearm !

yeah

I do grip exercises every pull day

what are you, military? MMA? boxing?

I'm sort of self-taught in boxing for years

boxing

Though I'm looking towards possibility of learning a proper martial technique

what does that mean

"proper martial technique"

Boxing is done within confined set of rules which are excellent to learn striking properly

But are not as applicable to real life as other techniques

you genuinely believe boxing is not as applicable to real life as some martial art from asia?

on what basis do you believe that

Boxing has a strictly limited sense of blocking

Due to wearing large boxing gloves which aid in blocking strikes towards your face

IRL you have open fists

what was the worst you fucked someone up in boxing

I've never "fucked someone up" in my connotation of the phrase

because your thought process here is giving me doubts

I see

okay then

I mean... I don't know how to say it... you are aware, right, that gang bangers are hospitalizing and killing people regularly with no more than boxing and high school wrestling

just knowing basic western fight sports can literally make you a ghetto warlord

True that

but take into account

that anybody who has a really developed, powerful strike

Muay Thai and jewjitsu are a good combo

is a warlord for anybody without any practice

Agree with exi that boxing and wrestling are enough tho

because even the msot simple strike can be devastating to someone who is clueless in fighting

so basically you are going on the theory that somewhere some secret master exists who would kill all of detroit singlehandedly

@devolved indeed. Throw in some judo for transition too

therefore, rather than taking what obviously works and refining it to extremes, what obviously works should be thrown out in pursuit of a magic bullet that nobody actually available for interview seems to know

99% cannot devote themselves to be exceptional fighters

Heller ther

Hence, learing how to box is sifucient

Gangbangers have a lot of "sparing" time tho. RW application beats gym time

"yes stabbing them with knives works, but somewhere there's some asian monk in asian pajamas who can just LOOK at them and kill them! I will not practice knifing, instead I will search for the monk"

im her to round up dem dirty niggers to lynch em

can anyone help

if learning to box is sufficient then what is wrong with it? what, do you need to fight Goku?

Btw fighting with blades is important part of Asian schools but I'm not about them atm
