Work Out, Get Fit Thread

I normally workout 4 days a week at home but only got two days in this week because the right side of my back went out tying my shoes. Then the pain on the right side goes away only for the left side to act up. I'm pissed cuz I had 3 appointments this week a only made it to 1 *smh*

When my back gets back right I won't be doing nothing but back exercises for the next 2 - 3 weeks.
 
Did 550lbs today (45x10+100 for the carrier). 3 sets of 6 reps each. I should prolly start with the leg press on leg day 'cause by the time I was done with leg extensions, curls, and seated calf raises my lower body was a bit tired.

Lol dope but you only supposed to count the plates

Try it with no plates and you’ll see the equipment itself offers next to zero resistance because of how the track is designed

It says it right on the machine that the starting weight w/unloaded carrier is 100lbs. The Hammer Strength joint they got at the Planet Fitness me and my boys met up at a few weeks ago states their carrier is 118lbs. All of that counts.

That's like not including the bar's weight when you're benching or curling. It all counts.

Same if you were to bench, dead lift, or curl just the bar; shits easy as fuck but there's still resistance.

Each manufacturer's carrier has it's own weight, which is why you can do more at some gyms and less at others if they're not using the exact same machine. I can push more plates at Crunch where I work out than I can at Planet Fitness where my boys work out. Shit ain't that hard of a concept to wrap your head around.
 
Try this the next time you do hack squats and your quads will be destroyed

Place heels together (toes out at 45 degree angle) and align them with the bottom of the footplate

Do each rep somewhat slowly and do NOT fully lock out at the top of the movement. It’s ok if your heels come up off the plate when you go down.

This last thing is the most important, it doesn’t matter in the slightest how much weight you use, but you have to push until that final rep feels like you damn near need to be rescued. Don’t go in thinking “I’m gonna do 5, I’m gonna do 10,” just say “ima get one more” until you can’t anymore.

4 sets
 
Every one has those days where they just can't get right today was that day lol
Sometimes you gotta way fuck it and try agsin the the next day i could not not trip over the jump rope today lol fuck it


Also my labs cam back wack which they never have elevated cholestorol and a1c .

Thats crazy to me, but i know what to do

I got a Charge 5. I use it for simple shit tho like tracking steps and heartrate. I dont use all the features it offers or some of the more expensive smartwatch models do. I dont need my text messages and emails n shit going to the watch and all that.

Go on the site and you can compare the different models to see which one works best for you. They got a quiz joint on there and will ask a few questions to see which one makes the most sense as well

I lost my first one when I went to the DR earlier last year. I bought the same one when I returned. Still working good. Only thing that stopped is that it doesnt turn on when I flick my risk to see the time. I have to tap the screen. No big issue. I hope it goes past 6 months, lol
