Weighing in everyday just creates too much noise in the data set you are trying to observe. Once every week or two will show you good trends. Also use body fat calipers so you know that the weight you lose is fat or that the weight you are gaining is muscle.

Example: If you went on a bender the night previous you’re gonna weigh more and go “oh god, I need to change my diet” and screw up

Just don't base your weight goals or diet on what you weigh that day

I'm a big proponent of weighing yourself every day so you have more data

So you know which days you've shit before weighing, drank the night before (degenerate), etc

As long as you don't freak out every time you look at the scale or base everything on your weight weighing yourself every day is fine

This is what most of my suppers look like. Put the fish in for 8 minutes and nuke the sweet potato for 3 minutes after poking holes in it.

Working out at the YMCA is such a mixed bag of whitepills and blackpills

on one hand, I see a lot of white kids and white families being active and being together

on other hand, I see hijabs and thots with partially shaved heads and face tattoos and spiked collar necklaces

Ankle got destroyed yesterday bouldering. It feels better today but calls for another day off. Sucks

I listen to only this on loop when I hit the gym

Only a sprain in the ankle but was told I need 6 weeks off. Anyone have experience with a grade 2-3 ankle sprain?

R.I.C.E. every day, stay off it as long as you can

I used crutches after I got a similar level ankle sprain during a skydiving landing

@Havamal hey bro I was shoa’d yesterday... I got the boot from discord... so I’m trying to get all my severs back... can I get an invite to the heathen server?

Servers *^

Thanks .... didn’t realize how much I use that server until I didn’t have it/couldn’t use it.

And to make matters worse my youngest dropped my phone in some water at the park so I lost phone contacts of a ton of IE guys... double shoa

Ooosh

Something has it out for you.

@Havamal still haven’t gotten the link ... I wonder what’s goin on?…………

Per the osteopath I saw for an ankle sprain two years ago, soft tissue injuries actually take 3 months to fully heal. Come back to your usual activities very cautiously after six weeks. I would continue to wear at least an ace bandage until the three months are up. During the six weeks a brace with metal supports to limit mobility is a good idea.

So what I’m hearing is I’m young and dumb for jumping back so soon? As long as I’m pain free I should be okay tho right? I planed on trying 40-50% on lifts tonight to gauge

DM me and I'll reply

@Deleted User @Punisher

@peytonT Tissue isn't healed even if it doesn't hurt. You're increasing your chances of creating a recurring injury, very common with sprained ankles.

We gon’ climb it 🅱ois

So went and hit the gym and nothing hurts except when I walk in my bench setup but that’s an easy fix I’ll switch to my oly shoes and plant the heel

Went ahead and hit my prescribed deadlifts and ohp for the day cause I felt good. Will take a light days before squats to be extra safe

The lack of squat focus of my oly program took away my 315 PR low bar back squat. feelsbadman

I think I'll pick the SS program back up in conjunction with my oly program which will basically have me lifting almost every day

If you really want to get your squat up do a Smolov Jr cycle

Got me from 400 to 500 by the end

I'll check that out @BigBadSaxon - ID thanks
