@silsophi Get a better wardrobe and hit those upper traps. Only thing I can see causing you to look “untrained” in street clothes.

@wally1648 Sounds good and none of it was meant as an attack or criticism. FWIW, agree with commenters that bracing is the most likely thing worth exploring. Hope you’ll stay mindful that, as you’ve aged, squats just might not be optimal with your individual spine regardless of how good they...

@cornflakes60 Bulgarian Split Squats. It was a joke but, apparently, from the downvotes there are a few folks over-sensitive to questioning the orthodoxy of BB bench, deadlifts and squats. The sensible take (for an over 30 fitness sub) is if you keep getting injured doing one of the holy 3...

@youngwolf You aren’t the exception to the Laws of Thermodynamics. That said, as someone already pointed out, your daily weight fluctuates a great deal. Eat more salty foods or just began creatine? Your body is going to add water weight. IMO, the best way to track your progress and not drive...

@eloise Not an elk hunter but climb CO 14ers for fun. Have summited 25 unique peaks over the past 19 months. If you are trying to get in shape for this coming season then know this: with that leg press it’s very unlikely it’s leg strength that will hold you back. It’s having some decent cardio...
