A few years ago I ran into a similar problem. I ended up spraining my right wrist doing reverse curls with an ez bar and shitty form(swinging, etc). I was told by my doctor to lay off the lifting for a couple weeks, until the pain and everything subsided. Well, I took about a week off and used a...

I'm not into lifting as much as the majority of you guys. I was kind of serious before I came back to school. Now with work and school and my workload, it's hard to get in a couple times a week. But anyway, I tried needsizes routine for a while. It really did work. I was able to get all the way...

This is what really confuses the hell out of me. Many of the guys that have been doing this(lifting) for some time, will comment and say that if you're doing 2 areas a day, and say you workout 3 days a week, that the seperate day for shoulders/other body area will be similar to overtraining. I'm...

So as long as you're keeping the days you do Chest and Back seperate, it won't be "as taxing" on your shoulders? No matter what you'll be utilizing the shoulder muscles somehow, but not directly, correct?

From what I've read up on this great forum, everyone is different. But IMO it seems like you wouldn't want to train one area and also a helping muscle area at the same time. My routine goes, Chest/Bi's, Back/Tri's, Shoulders/Legs, and Abs. I'll usually try and mix up the shoulder/leg/abs day so...

No, not a monolift(haha). Thanks for the advice. I'm feeling probably back to 85% right now, physically. I've hear that exercise can bring the virus back. But I was just curious about a little shooting some hoops around(by myself) or walking on the treadmill. Something to keep me from going...

Hey all, I knew it wasn't anything good when my doctor right away said I had it. They told me to stay away from contact sports, and I forgot to ask about lifting. I'm not as hardcore as you guys, but have laid off of my lifting routine cause I recently moved and had to get things situated. I've...

I injured my wrist doing the same exact exercise. It had been bothering me on and off for the last few months since it's happened. My doctor was positive that it was just a mild sprain. I laid off of lifting for a week or more, but have gotten back into it since. I wrap my right wrist now, and...
