New log, experimenting - Nina

Yeah we have a dif health and life scenario... but, I think I was super happy instead of up and down, before medicine... when running a lot. Maybe, nostalgia. Str training is good, and I keep it short 30s or a min break in sets or new exercises, but... running/biking/swimming is great too. I can't bike or run outside, prolly get hurt/lost.
Unless it's an easy path haha. Not with stupid cars around. I like hiking and walked most of last decade... not m last yr, but a lot this yr, but only 30min-an hr. SOme intense cardio, but mostly str training. Knee injuries (not really a huge deal, I will get sports rehab soon).

Yeah i hear a lot of good things about running and mental health. Helps lots of people with anxiety/depression and stuff like that. I think it should be part of everyones workout routine

True. I switched to elliptical 5-6yrs ago, but got bored so ran treadmill and supposedly not supposed to. Wanted xrays 3-4 yrs ago, didn't get them. WIll in future.
I mean I speedwalk everywhere and jog in a sense sprints a lot of places, but usually not actually on purpose. Due to lateness, and stupid things I'm sup to do.
It's a great way to keep in shape. When I was 20... 22 23... took it too far. Jogs went to 80mins 90mins a day... and really, didn't "change shape", more str wrkouts did of c.
INITIALLY at no fitness ---> quite fit, it did. Forever better and better? No, I don't think so.

Also managed with ARL related company to get my hairtest done and pay later. I got the kit today to cut my hair so will hopefully send it in this week or monday. My other hairtest was from mineral check but it was pretty worthless tbh

Only problem i have with ARL is that they usually give limcomin to slow oxidizers aswell when they have low sodium/potassium ratio. It has quite a bit of copper, dont like that

 

[MNK99]

SO there's basically no way for me to analyze (or someone else) my Test 1 to Test 2, rite? Considering Test 1 is ARL, and Test 2 is TEI. I may ask for a chart... for ARL too...
but I'd like to keep costs down, I don't need the whole booklet. I sent them like enough hair to do this. Cut, didn't use a mirror. risky, but needed to save time... won't in future.

Did you post them in your log?

 

[MNK99]

--I DID. But I called out some ppl, argued on Imgur.... I get into a lot of arguments... and that's normal for me... so that's good/ but decided not to feed the trolls, removed the concise screenshot.
--seems annoying/ I'll do it later, I dunno.
--Second one waiting til Monday or so to get them back... Catherine says will be received Monday most likely. I don't know.

yes you can compare them. if i were u, just get a pen and mark the arl values (ie if calcium is 42, put a mark on where 42 would be on the tei sheet) on the TEI sheet. the "ideal ranges" are slightly different, however the measurement units they use are the same

 

[MNK99]

True, makes sense man. It's all about the ratios. Thanks @m_arch.

I think absolute values are important too. Like 4 lows sounds pretty burnt out

okkkk so i broke my keto diet today LOL, i have been eating like crazy all day. Probably ending the day at 8k calories total, feeling pretty good. My mood is definitely a lot better than before i ate all those carbs and my muscles look full again

 

[MNK99]

jesus... 8k... well as an athlete makes sense. I did 4k a few times... it was fine, but kind of felt guilty. It was fine on net.

I competed in an amateur contest once at my gym, i binged on 10k calories the day after the show lol i think thats the most i have ever eaten in 24hrs

 

[MNK99]

have probably done 5k in the states or mexico (random resteraunts, trips... ppl forcing me to eat like 5x a day)... but it certainly was way too much. Not recently.
Most weddings and events, I used to eat nothing, just have vodka... later nothing, now nothing... just smoke in the background with my arms crossed.

[MNK99]

I actually have asthma, mostly -- vape. Haven't smoked nor drank in 260+ days. Drank less than 40x in 5 years, smoked last year and 8-10 yrs ago on effexor.
I'm actually super healthy. I do vape tho, easier to say smoke while on way to gym. Done, destroyed all in there. 8th workout day in a row. But will take it easy.
(DId 14, 13, 18, 19, times this yr too in a row). --trying not to count everything... I was bored also and thought it would help heal quicker... and can't stay inside so I did that.

390 -540 reps a day 190 or so myb more workouts this yr.
-I fixed 200-300 days of suicidal depression by fasting... and corrected a bunch of others on other forums who said my progress was made up, so no whatever the hell you are implying, I do not do.

-Only vaping ..; never smoked outside of effexor briefly and last yr a bit due to fin depression.
-i can and have easily rejected alcohol once mania ended 23 yrs old or younger... but I increased discipline as my 20's went on.
-I fasted 51+ days, I think I can quit anything.... add workouts, that's another minor fasting 200+ times this yr.

Damn dude you those are some impressive workout stats. I have bad insomnia and shitty sleep often. Always though I couldn’t workout because of that. But you have bad sleep too and are ripped? Or is your sleep okay

again to be brief... super used to it.. as a kid stayed up till 11 as a teen 1am -2am.. sometimes 40 hrs vid games, etc... skipping, etc...(to teach on my own, bc class is lame).
-also playing pool blackjack etc.
-that 2am became 6am 12pm 5pm 2 days+ etc as i got into 23rd yr etc.
-anyways...
-IF USED TO... not so hard...
-IF NOT used to it... I could see it being quite difficult.
-Like me last year... in bed. Eating carbs and drinking. BUT, smartened up, thanks to jesus.
-fairly ripped looking, but even w some extra fat at 22 or skinny as fuck 23... basically same minus or plus 10-14lb. --> AND mostly 178-186. Now 190-198. 189 to 184 ideal.
-I could tune other kids, certainly as an adult too.

@supernature

Thats lots of working outs in a row for a nopro i think, but it seems you are quite ready for it. The dips that made a pain in the ribcage from spreading it were the one with added weight on the legs for ex.

No jokes man, i was just about to ask you if you do this as well ))

--> YEAH it's too much. 14-21 workouts a week at 18-20. Hypo / true mania / OCD / boredom / wanting quick results / helps mood and focus to a point... / annoyance also.

-anyone pm me or whatsapp or ask someone else if a q to keep logs clean and nice... pristine looking. plz. thx. good day. good nite.

-I meant rolling my eyes being annoyed.. I don't like big groups tho I can charm them, but I'd rather disappear mysteriously. Been like that for like 15 yrs. Realized only way for me, like 8 to 10 yrs ago. I smoked maybe 4mo last yr or less and like: 6mo in 2008... on effexor - like every single person does with severe mania back then (depression after fin). I'm more disciplined than almost anyone I've ever seen. I just did 86 dips without inhalers and above bodyweight for 7 exercises and light on 2 more, over 430 reps.
---and it was fasted like everything... all cardio since mid teens, and near all weights last 5-6 yrs and most before that.
-I get it was a joke, but I'm just correcting you. DUDE.

-ALSO I pace back and forth a lot... probably 3-5000 steps a day easily when really busy or focused... or when there's stuff going on. -- then walk also. I'm fit.
-If I actually smoked all the time, good luck on any of that.... breathing after 10 yrs with asthma smoking... Id be screwed. I did smoke on a few trips but 3 trips out of 7yrs or so.
-I can quit any drug... cigs could be in my apartment, and only come out when friends are there, and last a year. BUT*** that's not true during "crash" -- it is again now.

-No alcohol around - kind of hate it... different story late teens to early 20's tho. Causes a lot of bad things... terrible for anxiety and depression.
-I fasted 51+ days, I think I can quit anything.... add workouts, that's another minor fasting 200+ times this yr.

When did you do the 51 day fast? Water?
