Hey together,

I've been experiencing brutal sciatic pain for the past 4 weeks. I haven't had any problems with my lower back or with sciatic pain before. I go to the gym regularly, I have a...

First of all thanks for your input. After another consultation with my physio, we think it could well be thoracic outlet syndrome. My physio agrees with all of what Szyszak said and I've incoporated...

Hey all,

I've been dealing with a pinched nerve on and off for the past 4-5 months or so. My main symptoms are a small but still noticeable loss of strength in my left arm during certain movements...

I'll make sure to check in a couple of months down the road and post a progress pic

100% agree with that. I've tried working out over the years but I never really liked and it always felt more like a chore to me than anything else. But this time it's finally clicked. I've absolutely...

I was thinking about moving to maintenance for a couple of months and see if I can reap some newbie gains and benefits from body recomposition, before moving to a moderate caloric surplus (around...

I train legs 2x, pull 2x, push 1x because as EliKoehn pointed out I'm a little chest/shoulder dominant.

Squat: 70kg
Deadlift: 80kg
Bench: 60kg
Row: 50kg

Thanks for your reply. Your observation there is correct, I have slightly rounded shoulders and am a little pec/shoulder dominant. That's why I'm doing legs 2x, pull 2x and push 1x to balance that...

Hi guys,

quick info about me: I'm 175cm and weigh 69kg ("5"8 & 152 lbs). After being inactive for around 5 years I decided to get into shape back in April 2020. Since then I've lost around 14kg...

I've had hip pain for several weeks. I was tattooed on the thigh on March 17th and had to hold my leg a little high and tense it for 5 hours. After the tattoo, my groin lymph node was quite swollen...

It's really difficult to find a consensus on whether one should rest their rotator cuff when it's inflamed and especially for how long. I guess it's sensible to rest for at least 5 days until the...

When you have had knots, did you stop your regular training regime or did you continue working out normally with added resistance training?

A lot of people have probably dealt with muscle knots before. To get rid of muscle knots the advice usually is to foam roll it and see a physio and/or chiro. While that is of course good, we hardly...

I get a super intense stretch right down the middle of my right arm (the line between biceps and triceps) beginning in my armpit and going almost all the way up to the elbow, when I do dead hangs....

My doctor did mention the subscapularis. The tightness has gotten considerably better but it’s still present. Do you know any good exercises or stretches for the subscapularis?

I strained my pec about 1.5 weeks ago and ever since straining my pec, my armpit has felt super tight, as if there is a knot right there. Went to my orthopedic doctor today and she did an ultrasound...

After complaining of shoulder pain, I went to see an orthopaedic surgeon and shoulder specialist and I was sent to get an MRI scan. The MRI report says that I have a suspected SLAP tear and a...

That's why I'm working on my abs. I doesn't even have to be proper sixpack, just a really flat belly would be fine. Do you think it would help if I added another 300 calories to my meal plan ?

Problem is, as soon as I bulk I gain loads of belly fat, so I'd like to get a sixpack and then start bulking. Tbh I don't mind my meal plan being bland and repetitive, I am quite happy with it so far.

So I'm 174cm ("5"9) and weigh about 70 kg (155 lbs). I have quite a bit of belly fat thanks to my genetics, so I am cutting atm. If you like, I can post a picture of me. I go to the gym about 5 times...
