What do y'all do or recommend for recovery?
Body lag is finally starting to fade. I can see a lot more definition now. Cutting out alcohol has made the biggest difference. Also stopped eating one meal with 100 grams of protein. One meal with 50 grams of protein max every 3-4 hours. Switched from PPL to full body split. I’m either going to run or box on my rest days.

Had a good 5.5mil jog over the weekend. Still no sprinting or soccer, however.
Just looking to finish 2025 strong. Already starting to set targets for 2026

Yeah. I ended up getting in both elbows. I had to get cortisone shots from the doctor. It’s going to continue to flare even with rest so I would get it checked out if you can.
Smfh…. Yea my PT friend said get some cortisone shots … I have a appointment next week with my ortho doc
Did a very light upper day tonight. Just about 35 mins to get my body back.
Took the last two weeks off to recover and get my mind right for these last 8 weeks before my Christmas holiday.
My routine took a bit of a hit this month and some change, just need to get back to steady state excellence. I know I’ve done it before

Wrapping up the end of the year. On pace to hit my goals for DL and bench but looks like I might come up a little short on squat. Only bulked to 230 but the extra 10 pounds is helping a lot. Probably going to push heavy the next couple of weeks and then have some easy sessions to end the year.
It’s been so long I don’t remember specifics. I basically stopped doing movements that would aggravate it which for me are/were standard pull-ups. I still feel weakness when I do those, even assisted. Other than that no issues since getting the shots and removing that movement.
You know what’s crazy I think pull ups probably caused this …. I’ve been going hard since may and I think ever since I started pull ups I think this pain started…. I’m also a gym novice
This shyt got me tight
