Mo, loving the new low; on the scale, not in mental stability, lol.
I get what you mean about though, this virus has been stressful. Last week I laid off close to 200 people; I joined them today. It's easy to say, but we all have to remember what's really important, have perspective. Let's stay safe and come out of this in one piece.

When I had emotional turmoil Ashwagandha helped.
Side DB laterals cause me shoulder impingement...not a good kind of pain! :P
So I had to find something for my lateral delts that I could load up the weight without pain.
That's why I chose the 45-degree DB row.
Even though it is posterior delts I can feel it in my lateral delts too.
Impressive journal and keep up the good work!

Hi Zeke! Thanks for joining the madness I will do some research on Ashwagandha. I must say I have never heard of such a thing. #researchtime!
I love the DB rows also. 50% less irritation than any sort of barbell movement.
AM Weight: 168.0
Training:
Chest, Bis, Delts mash-up
Totally unorganized and super fun! I am so damn tired this week. I tried my best to pound out at least 12 good sets.
I went in giant set fashion and blasted away with high reps for a change. I fell playing football with my son and my ass cheek is broken ... lol Same side
as my bad hip. #momfail I. Am. Old.
Stay safe everyone!

I agree on the creatine. Sorry I am later to the show here. lol
Just make sure to get close to a gallon of h2o in per day also. You will pee out the unused water.
Holding water is a miss conception also. The more you drink the less your body retains in a bad way. Your body knows it will get more so it don't save or store the unused water. It also flush's out unneeded salt. Just don't drink more than gallon and risk flushing out needed electrologists.50+ year old stubborn mule. Follow along at

I love that quote! Thank you
Weight is stuck again. Cardio going up a tad and macros dropped 80 cals total today. We shall see what the next few weeks brings.
Cardio and stretching today only. Light arm workout - but very light lol I dont count it.
I frigged up my left hip - so with a bad right one I'm falling apart. I gotta take a break from pretending to be 12 again .....Team Amazon: Sisterhood of Iron

That's an old back-and-forth story. We push, push, push until our old bodies say, "Ho'd up, ya'll! We ain't 15 no more!"
Then it's Ibuprofen and heating pads for two weeks. LOL"Blessed be the Lord my rock, who trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle." - Psalm 144:1
Also, taxation is theft.
