In 1994, I was 19 at that time. My best friend and I whom I have known since we were in the early years of high school (I believe it is called "junior high" in the U.S.?) were hanging out at a bar here, and we were talking about his soon-to-be enlisting for the army here.
Since then, he was very devoted to the country, and he is still one of the strongest people I know. I admire him and hang out with him for a barbecue every now and then. He has a child now (23 years old), recovering from a terrible accident - he is the one who talked me into this website, by the way (the child).
Anyway, so we were talking about his father, and how the fact that he will leave is quite pressuring because his father was having lung cancer. I volunteered to come take care of his father as often as I could (because I was planning to go to college here, I couldn't see it as a problem, I was living alone).
In 1995/'96 he was in the neighboring country of Bulgaria, en-route to Macedonia for peacekeeping reasons. I was visiting the old man, he was coughing badly one night of the 15th of December '95 (the war was declared over, but he was there for peacekeeping continuously). Because the father was weakened due to the cancer, I was trying to carry him to the bathroom, kitchen etc. He was quite heavy for me, I was weak, skinny, and was quite difficult for me to move him, but I had a promise to keep.
That night, he asked me kindly to take him to the front yard, because "he wanted to look at the street." I went to grab his jacket, put his socks on and his shoes, and he asked me to give him his Sergeant cap so he could use it to keep his head warm. I thought it was quite ridiculous, but who am I to deny the old man.
As I carried him to the porch, I laid him on his armchair in the yard and he said to me, just as I was putting him down, "I wish I could see the stars closer, one day."
He started coughing, and coughing, and coughing even harder. When he finished his last cough, he laid on his back, motionless, looking at the stars he was longing for.
The life in his eyes died away, there was nothing but the shell as his spirit flew into the night, among the stars.
I called my friend, he could answer only 1 week later. His wife was there with me, as we laid the old man to his final resting place.
My friend came back, devastated, he missed his father's funeral.
I told him to be happy, for he can live on in his memory as he remembers him: happy, with blue eyes always looking for the good in people.
Now, almost 20 years later, I still go to work out, carrying the barbell to my chin, and for a moment - I can feel my dear friend's disappointment going away. I still hate myself for not being able to do more.

See the issue with your comment in the first place was that you expected vorarephilia to know that a random dude on the internet was gonna get offended by his comment because he had a story that would trigger some PTSD scenario, and on top of that you wouldn't even share it in the first place.

That aside, I'm sorry to hear about your friend.

if a tree is that heavy, then the initial impact likely DESTROYED his internals, lifting the tree off of him would've left him with a much slower, more painful death on the trip to the hospital.

I injured myself in my anterior deltoid 6 months ago and thought I would never hit 315 so I stopped lifting.
This motivated me to get started again.

I'm still trying to find something that will inspire me to lift again.
I started off not being able to even lift the bar (which weighed 45lbs), and got my way up to 85lbs over the course of 4 months, but even with all my effort just 85 seems like nothing.
I used to barely be able to lift 15 pounds with one arm, too. 6'3", weighed 120 pounds, and could only lift 15 in one arm as a max.
I just feel like my effort went to nothing. I mean, 85 pounds? Over 4 months? It's pathetic on my part.

Try doing basic exercises first. Train your muscles individually with targeted exercises like curls, leg extensions, etc. and when they're worn out do super light weight combo exercises like bench, pull ups, squats, etc. to teach your muscles how to work together and build in the right areas. Work your way up. Make sure you're eating plenty of protein but also plenty of carbs and calories for energy.

I'm weighing 160lbs now, I starting working out about a year ago, back when I could only lift 15 with one arm. Took my forever to just lift the bar, but I got there. After about half a year to just try and lift the bar alone, to another half-year of regular benching.
I knew I was kinda underweight for my size, so i tried to work on it. But with a year of effort, i got to 85lbs. Just didn't seem worth it.
I truly starting working out and taking care of my body because I wanted to feel better as a person, increase my self-esteem and whatnot, but in the end it only made me feel worse.

do 3x5 on heavy barbell compounds instead of the hypertrpophy range, heavy weights with low reps make you the strongest.

Yeah, but I had to do low weight with higher reps to help me even workout in the first place, since it was hard for me to do. It also helps build lean muscle.
I was pretty passionate about working out and all, but now just doesn't feel the same.
I tried to do everything right, I ate right, saw people about workouts, and put all I could into it too. But all I got was 85lbs.

I had to do low weight with higher reps to help me even workout in the first place, how so? literally just have to push a bar 5 times. 8-12 is the hypertrophy range it expands muscles more than creating more muscle cells. you get what a main compound lift is right? OHP, bench,squat,deadlift, gotta do 5 reps of these.

Backing up macross here. If you want to get strong, lift heavy. 5x5 lifts -- heavy, perfect form. Routines should center around lifts that work compound muscle groups: bench, deadlift, squat, pull ups, rows, and variations of those like sumo squat and single leg dead lift.

Eat a ******* ton just make sure you get all necessary protein. 160 at 6'3" is ******* scrawny. It looks like you've done some homework, but you've been focusing on the wrong stuff. 12-15 reps is good, especially since really anything will help you right now, but it won't help you achieve what you're aiming for. Get a lifting buddy and figure out your one rep max. Develop a routine based on percentages of your one rep max. There are lots of opinions out there but a plan that aims for 5x5 @ 85% - 90% of your ORM is what you need. Heavy lifts, perfect form, and long rests between sets (like 2-5min depending on how you feel).

And eat plenty and get plenty of rest.

Not sure on this but is that all you do all the time? Repetitive exercises tend to plateau growth at a certain point so change them up every now and then. But to me what you've said isn't really enough exercises to constitute the growth it seems you're after...

I train a lot and I'm quite happy with myself! I'm 84kg (Britfag here - 185lbs) and about 5"11, don't give up pushing yourself and don't forget to change your exercises

I finally decided to take a month or so off from lifting today... I've started showing signs of a ****** up rotator cuff, as well as distal bicep tendinitis. Basically three months of winter bulking is gonna go down the drain because I'll be forced to just do cardio and core work.
Ice, ibuprofen, and feels, here I come.

check out kelly starrett for some shoulder mobility and strengthening exercises for your rotator cuff muscles if you haven't started yet. As you'll see on his channel and in many places icing and ibuprofen can actually delay healing because it suppress the innate response of inflammation to heal the area in which you need more blood flow so use heat and the ibuprofen is an NSAID and suppresses inflammation.. Hope you can get back in the game

The rotator cuff thing started a few months ago when I went a little too heavy on lateral raises and put weight before form. I've since stayed much lighter on my shoulder workouts, but it isn't getting any better. Time off seems to be the only thing that will actually allow all my **** to heal properly.

when you did the lat raises, how did you do them? my shoulders make the popping noise now and then when i do them, i dont take my dumbbell accessory work too seriously to work on form, only on my main compounds do i focus on form.

User avatar #11 to #9 - lotlizard (12/21/2015) [-]
Instead of raising them up and smoothly returning to the starting position, I sorta just heaved them up and dropped them back down to my sides too quickly. And I don't necessarily experience a popping noise, so much as a popping feeling down in the joint.
If I were to guess, that's the reason I'm showing signs of bicep tendinitis now in the same arm; the ligaments are attempting to make up for the weakness in the rest of my arm, but they can't keep up.

Back when I stayed with my folks, we were playing a game of spades when my father complained of chest pain's and started falling to his knees. We then realize it was a heart attack and lifted him into my truck. On our way to the hospital his heart stopped and he stopped breathing he was dead we pounded and hollered to get him to come to and about a minute later he gasps in a breath of air. When we got him there it turned out that his widow maker artery was clogged 99% . But the biggest insult of all was right before he had stopped breathing we called the hospital and told them that we were coming to ER with a heart attack patient they said "do not bring him to ER Bring him to the waiting room we treat sickest patients first" after he stopped breathing and then came back to us I called the ER and said " **** you he just died on us we are bringing him in you better have a wheelchair ready" that was the day my father died and came back to life and is still alive today getting healthier and losing weight .

I have something similar to the story what I've heard from my mom
>dad and mom were doing their usual stuff
>heading out to town to buy groceries and other stuff
>dad started up the car and walked outside the house, waiting for mom
>dad grabs chest
>dad gets on his knee, still holding one hand on his chest
>mom rushes out of the house, asks what wrong
>"I don't feel so well" he replies, while trying to act tough a little
> ******** .png - mom calls ambulance
>30 minutes later he gets in the hospital
>1 hr later he gets driven to another hospital with better equipment and immediately goes on surgery table

this has now happened twice. doctors' say that me might not live through the third stroke.

He is 62 now and had two heart surgeries so far (one before the first stroke) because his arteries are messed up due to cholestorol levels. He's not landwhale fat, but has a visible gut and smokes a pack per day.

Is it wrong that I skimmed this and every time he said "LIFT". I imagined him throwing a can of lift at things?

I havent gone to the gym in 2 months and all the work I did in making myself look fit as **** is gone. I hate working out so ******* much, but I hate being fat more.

I've been lifting for a little while but I'm far from there yet. Any experienced lifters on FJ that can tell me which exercises would be best to prepare you for literally lifting someone (like in the greentext) ?

no problem! those two lifts alone should give you the strength and stability to carry a person. this task relies heavily on core strength and balance. intermediate level squatters can easily squat over 200lbs which i'm sure is above what the average person weighs.

And therefore squatting and deadlifting trains your core strength and balance?
I haven't been to the gym in a few weeks because of finals, but last time I squatted/deadlifted I could do a plate on each side of the bar

I once lifted an injured woman from the train to a cab.
She said she "fell" at her boyfriend's place. Hope she's okay.

Similar thing happened here. Dad in bed for a week. Looked like **** . Couldn't move. Picked up that mother ****** off the bed and carried him to the car and then inside the hospital. Unconscious the whole time. Turns out he developed diabetes and was just constantly putting sugar in himself. Blood sugar levels through the roof. Doctors say it was a miracle he wasn't dead or in a coma.

So I've been doing things like push-ups, crunches and I think it's called the plank?..
in which you go into a push-up position but you're just resting on your feet and elbows while trying to maintain a straight back.

I'll be honest, even though I feel like the muscles in my chest are more powerful, it's getting difficult to keep going, I never seem to feel anything in my gut except for the breath pain immediately after the "workout".

Make sure you do the planks on your sides as well.
What are you going for? A 6-pack? Try jumping rope to burn fat.

Go to the gym and just work out your whole body then. You'll probably get better results there.

Advanced tip: When doing the plank, try to push your elbows and toes together.
