    Training went swimmingly today :cool: Felt like getting sick after finishing squats. My abs are killing me from doing presses and I got three sets of 7 pullups (admittedly the last set was a bit ropey towards the end.) I'm on a post lifting buzz now.

    If anyone see's a fat person fiddling about with a fat bar later come say hello.

    It probably won't be me, and if it is i'll probably just curse at you.

    Maybe they were referring to Sinead Hanley, who is involved with one of the Irish Diabetes Societies? Lets not jump to conclusions :o

    No Joke. I was staring a relatively not heavy front squat out of it and I overheard him and this other kid (who was doing absurdly high volume leg presses)..."I don't usually train here I train at Hercules club".

    Other lad: "...I've trained there.." (didn't hear much after that.)

    then the first lad: "James Hanley? ...."

    Kid was in good nick though.

    I've heard this many times too...

    sometimes I rolls a tennis ball across the front delt area/chest, lean up against a wall with the tennis ball between you and the wall in the right place and move it around.

    Use the balls or big tube to explore the area.
    When you find a sensitive spot, you should focus on it and try to penetrate deeper.

    This should give a reaction and possibly even a scream

    Afterwards you will feel much better :)

    I could make suggestions or post interesting videos to help.
    But these days trying to help is like strolling out of the alamo round here.
