So on saturday I decided to do some burpees at home, just because. (with push-up movement at the bottom)

Lats had soreness after. In fact, I had better soreness in my lats than after a typical back day.

Try to explain that?

Working out at home for the win :)

Strange thing. My arms and shouders got more ripped doing insanity than lifting heavy weights in p90x. (Heavy for me.)

Body weight? I get more sore from yoga and pilates at home than lifting at the gym.

The grammatical error in this pic is driving me crazy but I'm posting it anyways.

Study shows how exercise protects the brain against depression

 

 

“If you consistently exercise and your muscle is conditioned and adapted to physical exercise, then you acquire the ability to express this class of enzymes that have the ability to detoxify something that accumulates during stress and that will be harmful for you,” senior study author Dr. Jorge Ruas of the Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm said in a telephone interview with Reuters Health.

The body metabolizes this substance, kynurenine, from tryptophan, a process that is activated by stress and by inflammatory factors, Dr. Ruas and his team explain in their report, published in Cell. Studies have linked high levels of kynurenine - which readily crosses the blood-brain barrier - to depression, suicide and schizophrenia.

Are there people that didn't know exercise is good for your mental help? I've had to do a lot of things in the military that keeps me up at night (hence working nights because that's when bad things happen). During my exit exam this shrink wanted me on 3 different anti psychotics just in case. I said no thanks I'll just keep up a heavy exercise regiment.

a year and a half ago,  I fell down a metal staircase here in jersey. fugged up my back pretty bad. I was laid up for months. Couldnt move. Gained a poo ton of weight. I was around 500 lbs. i'm 6'3 and change. I workout 6 days a week (just lift on Sunday morns) I run walk 3 miles a day lift 5-6 days (altering body parts) and am now down to around a solid 320. Rehab got me back into working out seriously since playing ball in hs/univ.
