No worries man, To be honest there are some days where any kind of 'extra activity' i.e. outside of getting to work, dressing the kids etc are a big NO. But most days, I will time my workout for when I have the most conserved energy, or if my time window is set for the gym, I will have to really go easy all day or i'll mess it up.By 'go easy' I literally mean don't leave the office at lunch to get food, avoid the stairs - maybe even use my lunch break for a 30min nap.A good analogy is having a certain amount of chips (as in casino) at the start of each day, and deciding how to spend them. Most people have an unlimited amout of chips, and so give or take a couple of hundred it's not a concern - however with PPMS (primary progressive MS) using too many chips in monday, fucks up tuesday BIG time.Training - It is endurance that mainly causes a problem with lifting, because MS is a central nervous system disease (the protective sheath around my nerve cables is damaged/eating itself lol) so it takes probably twice the energy to send a signal for my bicep to contract per rep as it used to before I was sick.I get round this as I said by starting my workout with as much energy as I can conserve, and I stick to a 5X5 program or thereabouts, with some burning sets at the end of each workout (final exercise I will go until failure / cables / conc. curls / leg raises etc)Squats I had to adjust because they are HARD on the nervous system anyway. I used to love 20 rep squats, but now I do more like 5 x 5 (but damn heavy) with a final set of 15 at a lower weight to finish off.Things that piss me off about MS:1. If my body temp goes up by just a couple of degrees (cycling, weights in summer, walking too far, yardwork etc) I get double vision, and very weak, so have to sit down for 20 mins just to regain sight, energy etc.2. ringing in my ears - constant and very loud (due to damage to cranial nerve that supplies the ear)3. I have very bad balance - again due to damage in the brain stem4. After I excercise, or even walk for a while my speech gets very slurred/almost like drunk slurred until I have rested.But all said and done, I have a beatiful family, I don't take myself seriously enough to moan to people about my illness, and I see countless people all the time who are in such a bad way - how can I compare to that. I work full time, I train and lead a busy life so there is so much to be thankful for
BigCrypple begging for sympathy in this thread.
brother brother brother you and some of these guys are taking this thread the wrong way it was more of a joke than anything of course Im gonna still train legs Im not retarted I was fucking pissed that I went through all that trouble tonight and how something so small caused so many problems. Hence why I made the threa "is training legs worth it? (i didn't mean long term lol of course im still gonna train legs)1. My eyes are 100% bloodshot and bursted blood vessels. this shit is going to take at least a month to go away because they were jsut starting to get better TODAY and i was seeing whites in my eyes for the first time in WEEKS..... Now I cant go for my job interview I had lined up ..and oh I need this job 2. Was supposed to be driving down to TX soon to stay with this chick for a week and fuck the shit out of her, she's horny and I know she aint waiting long for me and will be fucking another dude if i dont get down there in time. but since my eyes look like frankenstein, it aint happenin any time soon. FMLhttp://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/33/20120626206262316435.jpg/ 3. missed my last two meals and scheduled postworkout shot of slin cause the throwing up fucked my appetite. body weight is down and im dehydrated, so I have lost muscle from going to the gym- not cool only tbombz can fuck something up that bad4. too much of a headache to jack off and look at the computer screen long enough to make it worthwhile5. Im about to see my mom for the first time in over a year in a few hours and she's gonna think Im high as fuck and not give me no money dont think broken blood vessels from a leg workout is gonna fly6. .. Its like 12 hours later and Im still not even fucking sore in my legs yet hence the thread title- is training legs worth it? I think not [/quotWhy is your mother giving you money? Walk into a Mcdonalds and tell them you want to cook hamburgers. They will give you a check at the end of the week. Then maybe you can take some of it and give it to your mother. I forgot. You're looking for corner office job with stock options with a secretary to serve you coffee.Get off your lazy ass and work your legs in the gym.
I always hated leg day......back day as well...two tough workout days to get through
So you basically hate 75% of your bodybuilding...
Bench presses, Bicep curls, and crunches-the only 3 exercises you need...thousands of douches with faux hawks and fake tans can't be wrong..
If I saw you in real life I would throw fists for making this comment, Cankles.
LOL, guess they can't be! Stupid fuckin' haircut, man I can't wait for these guys to see themselves in a few years...
hahahaha I bet with your brutal chiropractic knowledge of the human body they would be deadly punches too.Quack Flex hahaha
I'd leave you where I found you nancy, your quack bros wouldn't be able to put you together
Making OP look like a Nancy Boy with your work ethic. Ya I'd venture to guess his cardiovascular endurance sucks balls, that's why a halfway decent leg workout is just torture for him. I still puke maybe 1/4 leg days, but usually its if I overheat and just don't get enough breaths between sets. Love that feeling though.
utter bullshit
she thinks Im sexy, JS. Even gonna let me stay with her for a week just to fuck her. didn't have to send her any pictures of my legs, just saw some pics of my chest and that was all it took http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/213/20120609206099971589.jpg/.ITS OK THOUGH, since I can't be as much of a man as you chaos, Ill stick to my hammer benches, half ass workouts, rock designer jeans....while you rock your chuck taylors, kill yourself squatting 600 pounds, and jack off to newmom's pictures on a saturday night. suck it biotch http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/717/20120617206175358821.jpg/http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/59/title853296828.png/
Is this her too?http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/690/20120523205236037769.jpg/
Sounds more like you are eating to close too your training sessions and possibly also breathing wrong/holding your breath too much. If your blood sugar is fine as well there is no reason whatsoever why you should get nauseous training legs. Don't overload the stimulants neither.
Excuse me son?
