Ah shit, that sucks.

i've dropped my cycle b4. it didn't suck so much because it had roll bar, but wasn't fun lifting 600 lbs and i bruised my ego in the process

oh so i realized that my shoulder got torn out of its socket when i crashed. Ive taken pictures of the site and im gonna have the cop that saw it write something up for me. That slick was fuckin dangerous and it caused over 500 dollars of damage to my bike. ...so...gonna go talk to owners and get a settlement from them...such bullshit. The cop was fucking pissed to. He walked over to check it out and almost fell on his ass.

anyway...FUCK im gonna be out of doing anything other than abs and legs for quite a while.

damn, tough break man.

how'd it happen?

1 am 32 degrees out. turned into gas station and they had a 4x4 oil slick on the pavement that was slippery as shit. was turning in so the bike just slid out from under me and i went like 12-15 feet or so cuz ground was so icy there. cop saw it...glad i wear protection cuz would have ripped my knee cap off if I hadnt been. bikes got a hole in it,,, cracked and scraped...im not even pissed cuz it wasnt my fault at all....just disappointed

Im starting to get frustrated with my triceps. My biceps are coming along nicely, but my triceps just wont respond to anything. I do skull crushers, kickbacks, pulldowns and pushdowns. I see an increase in weight, but not not in definition. Any suggestions?

Two exercises that I use to smoke my Tri's when they need it:

Close-grip bench press
'Triangle' push-ups

Both of those are compund movements so they will bring a little of your shoulders and chest into play. The advantage is that you'll be able to handle a heavier weight than your normal tricep exercises. Because of that, you really need to focus on your tricep squeezing and extending throughout the workout or you'll allow the stabilizers to take over.

For close-grip: just take a nice, close grip on the bar (the closer your hands are together the more impact it will have on your tri's but also, more strain on your wrists. SO go light at first until you find a comfortable position. Make sure to keep your elbows in close to your body throughout the movement to keep stress on the tri's.

For 'triangle' push-ups: Stick you right hand out in front of you and make a backwards L. Stick your left hand out in front of you and make a regular L. Now touch your thumbs together and then your index fingers. There's your triangle. Now do as many push-ups as you can with your hands together like that, keeping your elbows in as close as possibly. If you have a partner to work out with, have him rest a 45 plate on your back and just go to exhaustion. Then pull the weight of and go to exhaustion again.

try lowering the weight. i do triceps with 50 lbs sets of 15. they get tighter than hell. like 4 sets of them. rope extendoids. i used to french press with 90s and rope extend with 130 and all that. but the 50 on rope kicks my ass the best. I also do close grips bench 4 sets of 20 with like 80 lbs. just destroy every fiber in the muscle hehe.

Ill try to lower the weight and do more sets/reps. See how that goes for me. Also, I think im gonna start doing close grip bench. A lot of people I know do that and it seems to work. I will have to give the triangle pushups a try also.

how do you guys do close-grip bench? i always feel like i'm fucking up my wrists man

try reverse bench.. but make sure you haev a spot when you do it
(palms facing your head instead of your feet)

(alot of people dont recomend it though for some reason) but it makes it easier to keep your elbows in

if your wrists are hurting try wrist straps

Make sure you keep your knuckles facing the ceiling when bringing the weight down. A lot of people try and use too much weight and their knuckles start to rotate back toward their head as they bring the weight down, thus putting a lot of strain on their wrists.

extend your arms perfectly straight and grab bar. they dont have to be that close together. The tricep is only muscle that extends arm. Just lower the weight and no other muscle like chest will try to jump in.

btw....went to gym today shoulders feelin pretty darn good...did some arnold presses with 5lbs and then incline flies with 40 (my usual)...felt good. Im gonna continue icing and Ibuprofen for a few days now and only work legs and abs....but yeah. looks like it was just a temporary strain!! w00t.

what do you guys take in terms of supplemental vitamins?

are flintstone chewables still the standard?

i dont really but probably should hehe

Oh man I used to love Flintstone vitamins! I take Centrum, Vitamin C, Caltrate (Calcium), Fish Oil & Flax Seed Oil for EFA's, Zinc and Garlic. Zinc and Garlic are mainly because it's flu season.

lads, i was walking to the bust the other day and got really bad pain in my calf/shine area, i take it this is shine splints?

how do i help stop this> happened again on me treadmill, any stretches to do? or will it go away on its own?

aye stand up and lift your foot off the ground as high as you can without getting heel off ground and then rotate the foot outwards to about 50 degrees off center. then put it down. repeat this and do 3x15 with that a day. also dont run on inclines and dont lift your toes so much when you run. Lighter shoes help
