[offthabooks]

30 min treadmill 3.0 mph 14 incline...
various floor exercises...crunches, dumbells

[caramellady85]

H20 cardio class for 45 min.

[IndiaBlu]

what was the last question? Is it on this thread still?

Is it a chest-pressing movement machine that when you use your elbow hurts? or is it in general with any machine? Have you tried an elbow brace and also try and do lighter weights. Have you tried doing the same exercise you did on the machine with free weights. But if the pain persists then you ought to see a specialist/doctor. By "Its not doing anything" do you mean you're not feeling anything on your targeting muscle? or means that your elbow is still painfull?

Its more of a lift and then stretch my arms flat type of machine. My elbow hurt and I cant do much more using it after those type of lifting exercising. Whne I lessen the amount I dont feel like its helping, I dont feel like Im gettin a workout.

Thank u

Thank u

hmm I would say avoid that particular machine for now and do free weights and other machines. Theres tons of exercises geared for chest and other muscles so don't feel like you're stuck. For more info on variety of exercises check www.wannabebbig.com

today is rest day for me, so Im just getting busy with my meals. Tomorrow is chest and triceps day, i can't wait!!

how many days a week u do chest and triceps? How much u maxin on the bench?

[khalid a.k.a Genocide]

how many days a week u do chest and triceps? How much u maxin on the bench?

once a week. In fact I work on every body part once a week (even abs and calves). I rarely max out, but I maxed out(bench) at 405lbs a month or so ago.

Bench pressing is not a lift that I get hyped/focused about. However, I get super hyped about deadlift and squats . Since they(deadlift and squat) are the true measures of overall body strength.

don't feel too bad about the squat numbers, just keep poundin' them. The numbers will eventually go up. And maybe you should do more reps, 6-10 reps which is really good for both strength and muscle growth.
