I don't understand what's wrong now.

Is the problem me taking sugar; this you are referring to carbs with whey

or taking whey as a post workout, that is should be taken before workout.

thanks

nothing is wrong.

your second and third sentences are not coherent. please rephrase.

So back spasms and leg pain are history?
Nice comeback workout too!  :highfive:

thanks vag.

the leg felt a little weird but i was paying really close attention to it and there was no pain. weirdness might have just been me projecting onto it.

lol yeah i was mad.

today:

BW = 174
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = low

- warm up

- DSVJ x 6

- DLRVJ x 6
way better than i expected, most around 32-32.5. nothing higher but that's not a disaster. hurray.

- MR half tuck x 10,10,10
going for more height than usual, so lower reps

- squat MSEM 315 x 6

- neutral chin up x 5,5,5

- dip x 5,5,5

- stretch

kept volume and intensity way down so as not to kill myself post-trip. could have been a lot worse. the squats were harder than they should have been, but that's okay.

Hi

I was given the instructions on taking post workout supplements, which included 0.8 x BW(Kg) of whey protein + 0.2 X BW (KG) dextrose. Then mix 5g in loading phase and 2g in maintenance phase with the whey mixtures.

First question: Is dextrose good or a waste of money and i should use any sugar or forget about adding it.

yes, it is a waste of money. use any sugar. i prefer chocolate syrup. cheap and delicious.

Second: Is the above formula a good guideline to use?

Would it be better to take it before workout or after workout.

Thanks

way too goddamn complicated. if you can follow that scheme, knock yourself out. it barely matters until you've reached a certain level of performance and control. i generally like to drink a protein shake post workout, or sometimes start it during the workout but after i'm finished with anything explosive or (mostly) aerobic. too much jostling. but that's just personal preference.

revision of plans. my brother relapsed again tonight so i'm gonna get some quick SMR and stretching done at home and then go out and chill with my parents. rough.

ETA: calf was feeling better but i foam rollered anyway. feels much worse now. lower leg and foot feel weak/enervated. damn it.

did not get any workouts in the rest of the trip. back was still tender the day after the spasms and then the rest of the time was either too work-heavy or spent on the plane. got back this morning accompanied by dull pain in my right leg, from the upper gastroc/peroneus down to the arch of my foot. it's similar to pain i had briefly last week or maybe two weeks ago now. occurs to me that it might be related to a new pair of shoes i got.

i am going to crash really hard in about four hours, but will drag myself to the gym for, at the very least, a good amount of light cardio and SMR/stretching. will take tomorrow off work (plane got in at 6:20 this morning and i'm in the office now) and if i've managed to get a good night's sleep i'll start back in with the jumping and the squatting.

not working out for nearly a week really sucks.

ETA: checked out some charts and i think the origin of the pain might be up in my glute minimus. the pain is concentrated around the lower red area in the third drawing from the left, below (lateral aspect of the gastroc). if the pain is causing a trigger point there, that would explain the further spread of the pain down the outside of my leg and into my foot. would also explain odd feeling of weakness in right hamstring. will attack today with ball/roller and see what i can do.

god, i fucking hate this country sometimes. any civilized country should enable all its citizens to access medical care regardless of cost. sorry, man, that's a shitty situation to be in. i've never been without insurance (went from full time student straight into full time work...knock wood) so i don't know what to tell you.

Fucking idiots on this board neg good posts.  Obv meniscus tears never really fully heal on it's own.

Dunno who negged which post, they all read zero for me when I checked this thread. But Dreyth had the only post in the thread that deserves to be above neutral. If have severe chronic knee pain that you think might be caused by a meniscus tear STOP ASKING STRANGERS ON THE INTERNET FOR ADVICE AND GO SEE A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL.

I un negged harvey's post.  Almost all meniscus wounds don't heal on its own because it's not your average tear.  A meniscus is like a padding and doesn't tear like ACL or other ligaments.

okay. so go see a doctor.

saturday, 8 september, dubai international airport:

BW = ???
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = ???

- warm up

- depth jump 3 x 4

- DB bench 50e x 10,10,10

- DB BSS 50e x 10e,10e,10e

- DB row 50 x 10e,10e,10e

- dip-position L-sit x 10,10,10

- stretch

felt good to get something done. this took about an hour. did not end up having time on friday to go to the gym. right now i'm super tired -- i just took a 1.5-hour nap and i think it's the longest continuous sleep i've gotten since thursday night. time to go have lunch (breakfast?) and some coffee and try to power my way through the rest of this day. if i can make it to 9 PM tonight without passing the fuck out in the middle of a sentence, i'll consider the day a success.
