Ok gym rat might not be accurate YET, I'm still saving to get to the gym, but I started hitting the weights about six months back bought my own dumbells have had a bench and bag for years that were gathering dust but now after six months I average 800-1000 reps a set, all upper body work (I haven't got any leg equipment and HATE squats lol another reason to get into the gym) I'm just curious how many other smokers out there still try to take care of themselves or on the other side believe that they wouldn't be able to BECAUSE they smoke weed (which I can say from experience is bullshit, apart from when you pick up that bong instead of those weights lol which DOES happen) so this post is I guess both to find like minded people on here and also maybe give a few people the motivation to start hitting the gym![]()
Any suggestion for ex gym rat with fckd up shoulders and bad tennis's elbow??
Trying for last few years get back to shape,and always same thing..If you lift 300lbs 1 time
Or 100lbs 3 times
It's the same result.
For someone with damaged body parts I'd suggest free weights, high reps, and a comfortable weight, not heavy
And I thought I was antisocial lmfao niceI used to go to the gym. But I dont like people.......let alone those fucking meat heads more interested in the mirror than the weights.
I bought a bench /squat rack for 450 used.
A 5000 dollar cable machine used for only 900.
And those bowflex 90 pound adjustable dumbbells for 1000 plus a 5.1 bench for 200
All said and done cost me around 2500 cad to avoid my fellow man. And I couldn't be happier.![]()
hey, I don't smoke weed (well the very very occasional mini pipe) but I eat it- decarb it for 45 mins at 120 degrees C and then sprinkle small amount into yogurt or something before bed for that sleepy high. I also go to the gym, it doesn't have any negative effects on my workouts, if anything its positive as a good night sleep means a good work out.Ok gym rat might not be accurate YET, I'm still saving to get to the gym, but I started hitting the weights about six months back bought my own dumbells have had a bench and bag for years that were gathering dust but now after six months I average 800-1000 reps a set, all upper body work (I haven't got any leg equipment and HATE squats lol another reason to get into the gym) I'm just curious how many other smokers out there still try to take care of themselves or on the other side believe that they wouldn't be able to BECAUSE they smoke weed (which I can say from experience is bullshit, apart from when you pick up that bong instead of those weights lol which DOES happen) so this post is I guess both to find like minded people on here and also maybe give a few people the motivation to start hitting the gym![]()
On deload week right now. Tried to push one week more but after two sessions realized i couldn't. At least im getting dialed in my deload time better.
I'm a strength training enthusiast, although im not strong or big lol. Body weight around 160lbs right now. Bench press sitting around 210lbs; 340lbs squat. Deadlift may be around 375-405lbs.
You need to get on an elliptical three times a week and get the heart bpm way up for an hour. With tension and elevation. You will end up with a disfigured barrel shape working the top all the time. With little sticks to support all that puffery. Lift or machine's alternate days keep the core strong. And remember depression kills in this country . Get off your ass and make some friends at the gym.Ok gym rat might not be accurate YET, I'm still saving to get to the gym, but I started hitting the weights about six months back bought my own dumbells have had a bench and bag for years that were gathering dust but now after six months I average 800-1000 reps a set, all upper body work (I haven't got any leg equipment and HATE squats lol another reason to get into the gym) I'm just curious how many other smokers out there still try to take care of themselves or on the other side believe that they wouldn't be able to BECAUSE they smoke weed (which I can say from experience is bullshit, apart from when you pick up that bong instead of those weights lol which DOES happen) so this post is I guess both to find like minded people on here and also maybe give a few people the motivation to start hitting the gym![]()
