Given the fact that your body is what serves as the resistance, you can almost always find a way to offload some of the weight by changing the position of your body in space. The best part about bodyweight exercises is that they can be performed without needing any equipment at all, or at most, a single pullup bar. In this video, I’m going to show you the best muscle building calisthenics exercises for getting a bigger chest, arms, shoulders, legs and back. Pick the wrong ones and all you’ll get is a conditioning effect at best and not much muscle growth for your hard work. Most of the MFP Community are just totally supportive people.Choose the right calisthenics exercises and you will build muscle mass with them. I think I was just chalking some of this up to getting older.Īlso, this was my first attempt to start a post after 2 years of being a member of this website being trying to get questions being scared to death no one would reach out. I'm also sort of a middle aged woman so I generally start to anticipate aches and pains as just an aging process, although I don't want to admit it to myself. I will NOT be pushing myself until I get better.
(I'd start now except I'm The Walking Dead crazy nut job so my whole Sunday nights are being glued to the tv with NO interruptions) I'm actually starting to BELIEVE I'll start to get better.and I'm going to follow up with the general practitioner this week for an MRI. It's to the point where I wish I didn't work tomorrow so I can just get INVOLVED with all of the websites you've all provided to me. I know this sounds so geeky but I am SO excited about checking out all of the resources you all have given me. I know we want to push ourselves, but it's all about taking a smarter approach to it. MRI is what you need and will give the best results. it may be ok for a bit but then you wake up and feel it isn't gone yet. A small tear can affect you so much without you realizing it.especially with high tolerance for pain. Glad to hear you consider options that we recommended. I believe my next step is something I always knew but I think I needed just to hear it. I have a have a high pain tolerance along with the "brush it under the rug" mentality but I can't imagine where else I'd hurt it. And I "believe" I harmed it while training. However, with John's response, I need to just bite the bullet so I don't harm myself even more. The xray was inconclusive so I need to move onto the MRI, which I am scared to death to do. Prior to referring me to PT he wanted me to do and xray and MRI.
I have been properly examined by a professional doctor but no PT.yet. Mobility movement patterns and stretches will increase health and reduce discomfort.
Better to be sure it isn't something serious that requires surgury. I work with too many clients that wait to get checked out and they end up with more problems later. Get it taken care of now instead of waiting. Only way you will truly know what IS wrong and stop guessing what MIGHT be wrong. I'd rather talk to someone more advanced that can take mri/xray. My opinion would be to seek a PROFESSIONAL Doctor.
When it came to the rotatory cuff mentioning that while lifting I should lower the weight with more reps. He mentioned some things for the muscle spasm such as maybe take a vacation (LOL) or change jobs (LOLOLOL).even he admitted that was crazy. So, in general, I asked what can I do or change to make the tension spasms better although he also solicited his advice into the rotatory cuff issues. He was not the first or only massage therapist who have commented on the rotatory cuff situation. Yeah.nothing mentioned was really specific since I already knew there was issues, along with major tension/muscle spasms happening in the shoulders and neck. The conversation was with a massage therapist who had mentioned, while getting a massage, that he could tell there were some rotatory cuff issues happening. I'm only mentioning the heavy part because of a recent conversation I had. Because of this I have been "laying low" for the last couple of months in regards to the gym but I am really getting ANTSY to get back at it. It seems as if I may have harmed my rotatory cuff while lifting.
I'm looking for some opinions or suggestions please.
