Not a doctor but pain while lifting arm to the side (lateral raise) "usually" comes from tennis elbow. I highly suggest youtubing tennis elbow recovery techniques (soft tissue work, stretching of the...

OP, you (like most people), don't understand intensity or effort properly (our bodies are designed to not seek pain/struggle).

Get on an idiot proof training wheels program like Bill Starr's 5x5...

This x2.

OP, you know why you aren't consistent in the gym... because you don't get gains so you get frustrated. And you don't get gains because of your ego, pride, and laziness.

5x5-8 ramped to a top set for compounds
2-3x5-8 straight sets for compounds

2-3x8 for accessory movements

This is my general set up but accessory movements I'll sometimes bump up to 12, 15 or...

Linear progression has been used since the Greeks and before. Do an activity, add reps usually (adding weight was not as easy with fixed weight sets). Roman and Greek historians have discussed the...

I mean, anything is better than nothing but that's not a great routine for balance, especially if you don't have any leg injuries... Do a proper beginner program and get real gains.

I don't recommend any athlete go for gatorade. They always overdrink that crap, it's sticky, it's nasty in coolers, and I just don't see any performance benefit. A little salt and squeeze of lemon or...

No offense OP but you want to complain and make excuses for yourself. You made yourself overweight... and yeah, now it'll be a struggle to come to terms with what needs to be done to lose that...

I'd argue for heavy front squats (free or to a box) in the 3-5 rep range combined with weighted hypers and hanging leg raises with a strong pause and flex at top in the 8 rep range.

For a beginner, stick to the program I say unless you have some injury. You should develop a good base level of strength and cooridination before moving to machine work. However, if you do have...

Bloat from fish oil is odd, I would see a doctor. Whey protein at least concentrate bloats some people, usually switching to hyroisolate fixes this.

Multivitamin... animal pak or orange triad are...

Peanut butter on apples... or ice cold milk with corn flakes and sliced up mango.

Home Improvement really sticks out in my head for some reason. And then later Married with Children.

For the classics, Andy Griffith and the Honeymooners.

This is similar to a Gironda routine, increasing intensity by increasing density (more work, less time).

The only thing I will say on this is a lot of people run into MAPS (middle age pull up...

I would say keep up your good healthy diet, find exercise you enjoy, and just monitor yourself. I find successful healthy people fall into two camps... the tracker and the rules camp. You seem like a...

Either switch your routine like radrd said or switch movements on push day to be less wear and tear. For example, my push day could be...

Push 1
Barbell Floor Press or 1-Board Press
2 Max Sets...

Heavy close-grip bench presses will be the best movement for really building up tricep mass. Also, floor press with barbells, kbs, or dbs.

OP, it sounds like you are just lacking the "will" to dedicate yourself. Eating for you has become an addiction (my body craves nicotine, my body craves alcohol, my body craves 5000 calories a...

I wouldn't say weird but it's unnatural to keep a wild animal in a space like that. Cats and dogs are domesticated while reptiles aren't. I just think it's kind of messed up, unless you give that...

This. OP, you have misconceptions about training. You should just follow an idiot proof program with a higher calorie diet and see what we mean. Or... you can continue to spin your wheels, stuck...
