Muscle in Action
Greetings fellow bodybuilders. Are you feeling any soreness today? Great. You are putting your "balls to the wall."(Quoting someone else-Do women put their ovaries to the wall? God, I think that would be more effort!) Aches and pains is another thing. Dealing with tennis elbow for lack of a better phrase. For me it is something a little different. After doing shrugs with 300 lbs I pulled that right forearm area and now it is sore. I try to go with the pain and be conscious of it instead of pressing through the pain. I have noticed if I loosen my grip on all activities that seems to help the most. I have never noticed that if I squeeze the bar really hard the plates go any higher. Same is true with holding my breath (which I never did. After being a neurosurgucal nurse I felt that increasing one’s intercranial pressure was a bad thing with aneurysms and things like that!) I am eating more protein than ever and becoming more "religious" with my creatine-Halleluyah Brothers and sisters. But the course of time-just doing the training consistently provides the best path. Just look at JackedinMich, slow steady progress.
Oh, by the way, who else misses atheenagreece’s "kiss shot?"
