re: Started jiu-jitsu training Monday, today my lower back feels better than it has in years

Not with jiu-jitsu but other things.

Don’t do these at all. Work on external/internal rotation of the cuff and dead hangs to create space in the joint…

re: Sweating When Working Out
Posted by BillyGibbons on 6/18/24 at 9:04 am
Cardio’s a different story but I’d be totally dry if not for wearing a hoodie while lifting. It only comes off after high rep sets of squats or deads. I’ll usually have a bit of visible sweat on my t-shirt under the hoodie but the hoodie is not wet....

My knee jerk reaction is that it’s probably at least somewhat attributable to the stimulant affect of the caffeine…
For me artificial sweeteners induce heart palpitations so I stay away from them at all costs.

Thanks to everyone who replied.
I really would like to avoid TRT but I don’t want my quality of life to suffer for not doing it.
For the time being I’m going to focus on getting down to ~15% body fat (10 lbs) and see how I’m feeling. I’ll continue to do other things to support T production (I ...

Total Testosterone Conundrum
Posted by BillyGibbons on 6/3/24 at 3:17 pm
H/F board, I need your help.
I’m a male in my late 30s who lifts 3-4 week and does some sort of cardio 3-4 times a week. I’ve been doing so for 6-7 years now.
I’m 5’11” and weigh 220 lbs.
Most recent lifts are:
Squat: 405 x 3
Bench: 315 x 6
Deadlift: 405 x 5
I had my GP order a testost...

1) If they offer you something to drink, take them up on it. I realized after my first job interview that I get horrible cotton mouth (only ever happens in interviews) and having a cup/bottle of water is a life saver. Taking a sip is also a good way to p...
