GOT COMPUTER MOUSE ELBOW?

Finally found a series of exercises that actually works. After one session, I feel so much better. Especially when I benchpress, I have way much less pain in the elbow.

Where's Beau @?

No kidding. I've been following this thread and miss his posts/inspiration.

Personally I used the pandemic to start running more. Been up and down with some injury but now I've stabilized to goal of being able to pop off 3-5 mile runs at around 9m pace. Just started back on the gym now and hoping I can keep a couple runs in the mix. My weak point is planning and diet. Both are reasonable, but both are definitely limiting.
 
I've gotten back on the bike since track season is over and I don't have 3+ hours of coaching each day. Definitely lost conditioning since I last rode, good to get back out there and with 104+ temps the path is pretty clear.

TODAY’S INSPIRATION

My childhood idol. Check out his arms; I doubt he lifted nor took supplements.

FYI:

HE MISSED NEARLY 2 YEARS OF BASEBALL DURING HIS PRIME!

• He played 34 games in 1952 then served in the Army in 1952 & 1953.
• Returned to baseball in 1954:
~ Hit a homer on opening day in his 3rd AB.​
~Batted .345 & named NL MVP​
~ Won the World Series, the one that included “The Catch”
• Hit 41 and 51 homers in 1954 and 1955, respectively.
• Finished his career with 660 - undoubtedly would have broken Ruth’s record. Ironically he’s Barry’s godfather.
• .302 career average.
• 24-time All Star (not a typo; tied with Aaron for most All Star games)
For comparison in other sports:​
NBA: Jabbar - 19​
NFL: Rice & Jim Otto - 10​

I hate high school kids...... I either need to start paying attention to what days they are doing what so I can adjust my workouts so I don't do the same muscle groups on the same days as them. I swear they spend more time talking than working out I think they need to join planet fitness or some other hippy joint and get off my fucking weight bench.....

So headed back in last night as we did our 4th on Monday as some of my peeps were working on the actual 4th. So we Q'd and did fireworks on Monday.

4x10 bench press on machine
4x10 iron cross cable crossovers
3x12 smith machine incline press
3x12 butterfly machine
4x20 tricep pushdowns (lighter weight to failure)

I am starting to find that my sleep quality is worse on nights that I go to the gym for some reason and it didn't use to be this way. Not sure what the problem is as I feel tired when I hit the bed.
 
Ahh yes, the beauty of having a home gym setup. Gone are the days Im waiting for some wanna be Powerlifter yapping on his phone while they're still on their 4th warm up set on the squat rack.

I have done that a few times and I find my motivation wanes with a home gym. Having a gym membership also gets me out of the chaos that is my home life the last year. Also, the gym has a pool and as soon as I won't be inflicting a horrible sight on people I plan on using it extensively.:rofl
