Recovery at Over 60 YO

[millenium girl]

So ! just do shoulders ,chest and tri's once a week and the same for bi's , back and legs ?

Yes, that's all you need HOTROCKS. More isn't necessarily better

[HOTROCKS]

Ok ! I'll give it a try, but I don't know what I'm going to do with myself on those extra days off.

What may happen is that your body will recover...this fatigue will go away and you may even.......GROW

Why don't you do what I do on the off days ... cardio. I found out that cardio makes me more energetic.

Thanks Guys and Gal .

wouldn't those show up in my blood test ?
I had a complete workup .

Not unless they were looking for it. Or checking checking WBC count would give hint to something.

I've noticed that processed sugar really affects the way my energy levels run 6-12 hours after I eat it now, the doc tells me that my insulin response is not what it used to be... are the sugar markers part of the blood work you have had done?

now while i was on ghrp-6 peptide i had no pain any where no matter how much i lifted also i got great deep sleep.

I would get checked for Lyme disease and mononucleosis (Epstein-Barr). Those are two partially overlapping symptom wise and could explain your fatigue. More common than you might think. If it's Lyme you want to check it sooner rather than later. If it's Epstein-Barr at least you will know the cause and there are steps you can take to get it under control.

No they are specific tests. your doc has to ask for them.

Other things you could do if it isn't Epstein Barr or Lyme:

1. Stretch 10 minutes every day.
2. Drop foods that are proimflammatory.
3. Drop weight and increase reps.
4. work for the pump rather than upping the weight.
5. Reduce alcohol
6. Reduce caffeine
7. Nap on week ends if you can

In addition also what worked for me was 200 ug of GHRP-2 before bed.

I did a lot of grappling and heavy weight training for over 3 decades. You can imagine how my body is. These things help me. I still lift 4-5 days a week and run and grapple periodically. If I didn't do any of them I couldn't stand up strait. I'm in my 50s. Stretching is probably the single most important and only takes 10 minutes a day yet nobody does it. Go figure. I think people think the solution has to be more complicated.

Great post Glyco. I have been told many times to stretch but rarely do.

Thanks a lot . That's great information. Oh Yes! It is.
But,
5. Reduce alcohol
6. Reduce caffeine

Anything but that !
Not ! I'm just pulling your leg
However , I don't think I'd ever get out of bed if I didn't smell the morning brew. You said "reduce" I do understand.
Just Jokin"
I do stretch the muscle group prior to lifting, but Your talking something different . Yes ?
Where would I go to find out more about Stretching .
Books that you would recommend?

Thanks again.

HOTROCKS! Good to see you again. I only work each bodypart once a week, whether I'm on or off. Caffeine is good in moderation. I try to stick to 2 cups of coffee and never go over 3.

[HOTROCKS]

Thanks John ! Nice seeing you as well.
I drink about 3 cups first thing in the morning and that's it.

just freaking stretch already. You're 60 years old. Stretch before you snap a hip getting out of your car. You're brittle boned and old and your muscles are 4 cm to short.

just kidding.. well sort of.

[millenium girl]

Any update HOTROCKS? How are you doing?
