BG Fitness Fanatics II: We Work Out

[Airenn]

Oh, til! This way seems easier, I must admit. I'll try it the other way next time!

Curls for the girls. And yes. Do them in the squat rack.

But it's leg day....

[Airenn]

My workouts, up til now, have mostly consisted of leg based stuff, crunches, and the arm weight machine idk what it is, you set the weights and pull the bars down. I like that, easy.

I have never been this upper body sore, holy shit. I'm not in any real pain, it's a general soreness - But would it be ok to continue along the same routine? Couple of chin-ups (pull up!) and push ups.

Take at least a day of rest from upper body and do that stuff tomorrow. Make sure you stretch it though! (Once you finish the rest of your workout so all the muscles are super warm and full of elevated temp blood)

Sounds good. As much as I want to gym today, I haven't been sleeping well the last couple nights, so I'm tired from every angle. I'll go tomorrow! yay. Thanks for the reply.

10th day of upper body. I have forgotten what legs are, I still cannot feel my toes. Weighted pull ups making significant gains, still incapable of picking up my laundry from the floor. I've stopped tying my shoes.

Oh you

[Hushigoshi]

Oh you

Sorry, I had too hahaha.

[FNH]

I had shoo a shrugger just now

My poor lower back is getting crushed. It's always been my weakest region and now that I'm back to doing a lot more squats and full body stuff, it's complaining a LOT.

still incapable of picking up my laundry from the floor. I've stopped tying my shoes.

This is my life now.

I have a fancy party to go to tonight and if I have to bend over for any reason I'll probably pass out.

I had a major lumbar strain a few years ago. Rehabbed it with yoga and then did exercises/lifts that worked the lumbar region to strengthen those muscles. It also may be an indicator of poor form.

[Gustave]

The worse is having to lasso your pants leg around your foot to get them on.
3x Overhead
4x front
4x back
4x Bulgarian splits

I'm a long ways from where I was with 225 x8 Bulgarian squat but some of strength and mobility is coming back.

[Zetanio]

Fancy party had servers, crisis was averted. Fun was had.

[Airenn]

I wanna go to a fancy party :/

[Zetanio]

Get fucking good.

[Fitch.]

Anyone have a recommendation for a website that sells denim jeans specifically for people with large thighs? I am a 34 waist, but my fucking thighs can't fit in to normal jeans from American Eagle, Old Navy/Gap, I can't even wear my Carhart pants to work anymore because they won't fit thru my thighs (epic leg days, you mirin brah, etc etc).

Some of the websites I have looked at have RIDICULOUS prices, north of $100 a pair, no fucking way am I paying that for a pair of jeans. So yeah, any site suggestions are welcome, please and thank you.

[Zetanio]

Levi's 501 or 550 have decent thigh space.
