    Not going to make this my personal workout log, but figured I'd post my routine I do an amended PPL (Push, Pull, Legs) for a lifting split, 6 days a week. I usually start with 2-3 heavier compound movements (movements that involve multiple joints), and finish with a few isolation exercises...

    175lb OverHeadPress is legit! Especially for reps. Its been a long time since ive hit any personal bests for weights. Hoping to hit some this winter.

    Keeping it real... this weekend was rough. I skipped 2 workouts in a row, which is very rare for me. It's enough that I'm going to have that weird shame-anxiety combo going back and feeling off, so the first few workouts tomorrow and weds may be ugly

    My last month of work has been increasingly busy, going from my normal 30 hours/week to over double that. I love to exercise, it gives me release, but even i struggle to get to the gym some days. Last week, even at the end of my 12 -14 hour days, I still did the gym. But by the time Saturday...

    Glad you are prioritizing health! I'm trying to do the same. Sorry to hear about the skin. Ive had different sensory issues at my extremes. I have terrible shoulder mobility, so when i bulk up past a certain size, I literally cant reach my own back, neck, etc, and things like showering and...

    This has been a 15 year journey, and let me tell you, most of it i looked nothing like i do now either. But it always helped me heal, and always helped me grow. Hope it does the same for you!

    Sure do, and trust me, I've been high on *everything* else life has to offer... this is as good as it gets, in terms of long term return, except for maybe love I'm also well aware of my privilege. I'm not expecting a 70 year old to push it like I do, but I do expect them to challenge themselves...

    I will say: though it hurts like heck at first, if you can persevere through the standard discomfort that is change in general, but *especially* changing the "set point" of physical homeostasis in your body, you will be rewarded. You will feel better, you will process better mentally, and you...

    I intend for this to be a place to log my own progress, but I hope for the main purpose to become as an example or template to help teach others. Please chime in: there are no questions too simple or too private, no stories too mundane! Ive had a long journey with nutrition and fitness. I was...

    Fear: phonecalls, forms, and bureaucracy

    I am very high functioning in terms of the autism spectrum. I have 10+ years experience working customer service jobs. I can take care of house chores, am disciplined in my diet and exercise, and independent enough that 99.99% of people would never suspect I have autism. I also have PTSD/CPTSD...

    Site topics

    I've noticed this site has an awfully narrow scope- is that intentional? I think topics like fitness/nutrition, romance/relationships, and careers/education could really use a little more focus. Just a thought.

    Nutrition/Diet - The Basics

    Processed food is bad, but so is completely ignoring macronutrients. Many of those diets skew heavily towards carbs, which is terrible, and absolutely not healthy long term. Plant based diets are consistently lacking in fat, and sometimes protein. I'm all for unprocessed food, but not at the...
