Hey guys, I have been looking at building a home gym (possibly outdoors) in my new house we are renovating....

Basically, I took on too many miles too quick. And boom knee pain even when walking now. I don’t want to stop moving entirely, but I’m just not sure what I should be during this downtime. I’m pretty new to running so only been doing it for about 2 weeks and I’m a little heavier, so it probably beat my legs up. But I love...

How much does drinking after a workout affect recovery and growth?

Right now I do free weights a couple times of week, a little bit of yoga, and then a fair amount of cardio. Now that I’m in my late 30s I seem to be injuring myself a lot. Little stuff like pulled muscles, tendonitis, joint pain etc. Yoga has definitely help and I’ve adjusted the cardio I do. Any recommendations for a...

This is not necessarily a fitness question persay, but i figured this would be the community to ask. About 3 months ago i started a new job, a factory job, where i’m constantly pushing and lifting tonnes of weight daily. i’ve gotten used to it, i don’t feel nearly as sore as i did when i started, the only thing is how i...

My flexibility is not good. It affects a lot of what I do. Tight legs, tight back, which keeps me from doing things I want to do, mainly cycling....

We want to know!

I’ve been doing the Couch to 5K program for a while now, and I’m currently at the last week of it. I can run for 30 minutes now, but at a much, much slower pace than the average novice runner at my age and sex (as I’ve seen when I looked it up, at least)....

Does anyone here use any Open-Source Workout Trackers? I’ve been using hevy, but their high fees, the fact that they are a company that holds my health data and has made no commitments to open source, User privacy, or fair trade practices like user data import/export has me looking around. I wanted to see if anyone had...

I’m currently using strong, but I find it not very customizable...

I have to do squats every Monday

Hello, I hope this type of post is allowed here....

I am kinda new to pull-ups and i am having a problem. So right now I can do 8 pull-ups in a row but if I try to do another set after some rest, I can only get 4 to 5 reps. Is there something I can change with my pull-up training?

I’ve been steadily increasing my lifting the last few months and I’ve been tracking everything exclusively in Garmin Connect. It works, but it feels like it lacks polish....

Hello everyone,...

So I fully acknowledge I am not in the best of shape, but I generally find that I am in better shape than I thought I was from what a drunk nonce of a PE teacher taught me in high school. A good example is learning that I can actually do a decent number of pull ups but just don’t know the form to do it when I am not...

That seems to be what the complicated explanations boil down to.

I decided to try out a sort of full body workout targeting my chest and back after my leg workouts last week. I did the same workouts i do on my chest/back and leg days, but for some reason i was not sore at all so i tried it again in the same week and same thing. I’m shocked because my legs and core would be extremely sore...

tl;dr: are there any steel mace or steel club workshops or classes in or close to Northern Kentucky? I’ve tried to find them via searches on DuckDuckGo and Google; the closest I could find is a weekend workshop in October, but it’s in Pittsburgh, which is several hours away from me. I’m willing to travel, but would...

Do you enjoy it? How long have you been running it? Thought about switching to something new?

Is there any way to work out what numbers I should be aiming for for each exercise?...

I’m a tall guy with poor mobility. I’ve been at the gym for a year and working on my mobility every workout. I improved massively in many areas except for my ankle dorsiflexion, which still sucks. While I can go low in the squat, it requires me to lean forward and I get sore (DOMS, not pain) lower back after squatting....

I want to purchase a piece of cardio equipment to use for when the weather and/or pollen are bad so that I can do LISS. Anyone have any recs? I’m leaning towards a rower, but I’d also like to be able to have a screen to watch in case I want to watch some TV. I don’t care about it havinf programs, classes I can join, or any...
