Recently visited the doctor to see what was wrong with the thoracic part of my spine and I'm in PT right now trying to figure out what is wrong with my back. I have pain near the T-10 area and...

I'm interested in buying either one of the two but was wondering what would be better for your joints and keeping them healthy.

I take brazillian jiu jitsu classes and am still young so I'm...

just bearly not a manlet here

Im currently on an intermediate lifting routine and am satisfied with the results I have now so I'm switching my intermediate routine with the one I began with and rotating the exercises I had done ...

Nature Valley Bars are clutch for me, I have about 4 everyday in school, good carbs and some protein.

Some songs by Avenged Sevenfold:

1)Trashed and Scattered
2)Strength of the World
3)M.I.A.
4)Bat Country
5)Unholy Confessions

Nice post man, I have one question though...

What intensity should I be using on each set for example, should i go to failure on the last set and should i be using about 70% intensity on the 1st...

I've heard going to failure is actually counter-productive, for optimum muscle growth 80% effort is best.

that stuff is pretty damn stretchy, shouldn't matter too much just pick a size that fits you. I got a medium and im around 5'8 fits pretty good.

Awesome songs for working out:

1) Ill Nino - This is War
2) Ill Nino - What you Deserve
3) Korn - Coming Undone
4) Korn - Twisted Transistor
5) Soil - Breaking Me Down
6) LL Cool J - Momma...

I just started X-Country season and my cardio/body-weight routine is working great. Its very simple too. Abs are crucial for running and I got a six-pack in no-time.

Pushups - (2-5 minus failure...

Working at a store filled with hot chicks all day for decent money and discounts???
How are you a flamer if your doing this?

After finding out I'm overtraining, I've been looking for a good proven routine. I've narrowed it down to two programs, but I can't decide which one would be more effective.

Rippetoe's program or...

Cross Country everyday will definitely slow down gains. Doing leg workouts would be kind of pointless. Reason being, when you run x-country, your working slow twitch muscle fibers and when you work...

I'm not sure but I think I might have a hernia. Heres my post and what happened - http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=862494

As the illustration of a hernia you posted shows,...

uhh no thanks lol its near my groin area and its not very noticeable.

Anyway I convinced my mom to schedule a doctor's appointment on Wednesday. Is this a good enough time?

Its still hard to tell from the link above if I do in fact have a hernia. The Direct inguinal hernia sounds most like it. Is this caused by heavy strain/lifting heavy objects?

My Dad doesn't really take me seriously so going to the doctors isn't an option atm. He figures since I'm in no pain I should be fine. I would just like some other people's opinions and see if it...
