Really? It's more likely they just didn't want to fit cable up a block of flats. My sister had to get all the tenants in here tenement block to sign a letter of consent when she got cable. They're scared they get sued for damage to the building. But that does suck muchly for you. ... Want to rent my spare room?

*rage* i'm still sore and no amount of over-eating and over-sleeping will solve it (waking up randomly at 5 AM didn't help either).

and i had to give parkour a miss too

definitely will expand my lifting sessions to get accustomed to a wider range of exercises so this does not keep happening.

true. have you seen frodo?

*gets the rubber duckie costume ready*

meant muscle soreness though, and muscles repair during sleep.

on other grrr news, i have just weighted in at 52.6 kilos, with little to no apparent changes in body composition. this vexes me.

This is true if sleep is good sleep. Sleep goes throguh phases, the first being physical repair, followed by psychological repair.

Is your diet fuelling your workout? Overeating is no good for repair if you are eating empty calories.

Finally, have you explored the fact you may be overtraining?

as i said, i randomly woke up at 5 am. happens every time i try to sleep early.

re: diet, i've been upping my red meat intake where possible. if anything i should eat MORE, since i appear to be losing weight, and i still wanna bulk up in some areas.

and no, i'm not overtraining, i just have crap recovery. 5x5'd dips and front squats after not doing them for a while, now it's going to hurt for 4 days. i also exercise only twice a week, plus parkour.

@steve: as far as i can see, my arms are slightly bigger than they were a month or two ago, everything else looks exactly the same, daily variations taken into account. get what you mean though.

Fishy, I say this because I like you and I know you can take it but.

It's sounds as if your conditioing/GPP/work capacity or whatever the buzz word for it at the min sucks.

Address that then profit.

if i knew how...

you miss the fact that this has happened to me for years whenever i'm not used to some activity. if i knew how to fix it, i would have fixed it a long time ago. suggestions are welcome.

Chill with the weights for a short while (but don't stop), keep up the PK, work up to sled sprints and other types of sprints, do circuits, do complexes, loaded carries and roadwork.
Do something active every single day, and forget the word overtraining was ever uttered.

I'm not a genetically strong or big guy, the only reason I make progress is I have built a freakish work capacit that allows me to plug on and on at my weaknesses without killing myself.


There's an article on GPP up on t-nation at the min, might be worth a read but frankly I don't see why it's needed, just do stuff buddy.

I quit my mission to gain weight. I'm tired of forcing myself not to vomit, plus the overheating sucks and I rarely manage to keep the weight on for more than 24 hours.

Plus it's kind of fun to be one of those people who LOOK weak on the outside...I love annoying the 120kg sarcoplasm queens with my strength to weight ratio.
