Not a resolution but currently bulking to 192 lbs (185 currently) then a slow cut back to 182. I've been pretty consistent with lifting and getting protein at every meal so going to take my attention to detail up a notch with tracking macros again.Anyone got any New Year’s resolutions in the gym?

Can you list the specific exercises?
How’s your gall bladder and stomach? Had terrible abdominal pain and heartburn when I went high fat.Also every once in a while everyone breaks down and chows down on some sweets. Don't get to down on yourself.
Just dust yourself off the next day and eliminate the sugar again.
Just start back over.
Eat Meat Muthafuckas!!!
Not bad. I had some initial heart burn but it seems to have abated.How’s your gall bladder and stomach? Had terrible abdominal pain and heartburn when I went high fat.
Time to get back on the beetsI had my doubts, but I guess you beets guys were right:
Scientists say beetroot juice 'significantly increases muscle force'
Scientists in the UK and US tracked muscle force in participants who did 60 leg exercises similar to leg extensions. Drinking a nitrate led to a seven percent greater muscle force.www.dailymail.co.uk
Have not missed a day! Feel better than in my 30’S.Time to get back on the beets
I stopped while I’ve been out of the gym recovering from surgery, but now that I’m getting back in, it’s onHave not missed a day! Feel better than in my 30’S.
What has the beet juice done for you? Do you feel better or have more energy?A product that I've been using regularly is organic beet root juice powder. Beets are great for you, but I don't really eat them on a regular basis. Mix 1-2 small scoops of this stuff in a glass of water and down it for all the added health benefits.

You mentioned running, but have you ever considered getting a bike to ride?I am always looking for new workouts, exercises, foods, supplements, vitamins etc. that can give me an edge.
I have a bike and I love to ride. I have a little problem though- after a few weeks in the spring of riding 10-15 a few times a week, I start to get this condition called piriformis syndrome. It's kinda like sciatica, and I always get it in the left hip and leg. Basically what happens once the piriformis syndrome kicks in is I start with my left foot getting pins and needles, which progresses up my leg and into my left hip. Once it reaches my hip, it feels like someone stuck an ice pick directly into the hip joint. The only way to make it go away in the moment is to sit for a while. This past summer, I had to go to physical therapy, did yoga, saw a chiropractor, and was taking Flexuril to make it go away before the wife and I went on a 2 week trip to Greece and Italy. I think I need to go get "fitted" for my bike, but I haven't done that yet. Sucks because in the spring in central Florida the temps are perfect for riding long distances.You mentioned running, but have you ever considered getting a bike to ride?

I know I need to lose some serious weight to be truly healthy and live how I want to live. My biggest problem is honestly will power when it comes to eating and drinking. My body aches a bit more nowadays, which makes it harder to get up and go run or do some strenuous cardio. I turned 50 last October. I do go to the gym 3-4 days a week, but I'm at the point now I'm not lifting anything heavy, more like lighter weight for more reps. I'm not opposed to using supplements, but I really don't want to put too many chemicals into my body, but I'd LOVE to have more energy and ability to really push myself beyond what I think I can. Any of you over 50 men out there have any suggestions? I am always looking for new workouts, exercises, foods, supplements, vitamins etc. that can give me an edge. I'm not aiming to look like some sort of bodybuilder. Just want to be healthier.
Every day, and I've been 99.5% rid of it for 5-6 months now.Do you still stretch it out much?
