Do front squats instead of back squats and just do hacksquats, leg press and seated leg curls for your hamstrings -

Im starting to love mondays at the gym. I woke up feeling refreshed AF at 4am. No soreness at all after last weeks 2 a days. Hit new personal records on Squats, Bench, dumbbell curls, and Seated Military shoulder press this morning. Knocked out my entire morning lift routine in 40 minutes. Didnt take pre workout or anything, just some coffee w/ heavy cream and coconut oil. Got to work, ate like 6 strips of bacon, 2 babybel cheeses and 3 hard boiled eggs and still feel pumped. Cant wait till work is over so i can go back.

Wasn't doing anything with my gi bill, so I just signed up for a 6 month hands on NASM personal training course. Start Monday, best case scenario I'll be able to get into a new career, worst case I'll learn a lot about something I love doing and will be able to make a some easy side money, and just keep doing what Im already doing.

Not that I am aware of I think form could be improved tho this is why I am starting all over with no wights that injury was my body warning me to fix my weaknesses, plus gonna get somebody to film me so I can get a better view for improvements. plus more glute training and planks will be added to my workouts. -
The recent bodybuilders death have been a good wake up call.
Its all about HEALTH. Whatever we do, however we train for whatever purpose, we have to take in consideration ower daily, near and far future health.
Like i have said before A PLAN IS A GOOD ONE AS LONG AS ITS SUSTAINABLE!!!
Anorexia is a ?

Dear ICers DONT UNDERLOOK MOBILITY EXERCISES, GOOD FORM WHEN PERFORMING.
even if is at the cost of your PRs, speed or whatever.
It suck to have to leave fitness/ sport because of these type of pain. -
