There you go again, dropping those innuendo laced invitations. It's disturbing you've already created pet names for me, "sweetie", "sunshine", etc.

There you go again, dropping those innuendo laced invitations. It's disturbing you've already created pet names for me, "sweetie", "sunshine", etc.
P90X / Insanity fanatic here. I try to do one cardio and one muscle workout per day. My favorite thing about them, besides requiring very little equipment, is that I don't have to make up my own workouts.
I realize they're not for everybody, though...
Ha ha, it turns out I have one of these. I had a bad shoulder injury in December 2021, and then I was given this at Christmas a few weeks later, so I put it aside and forgot about it. I just pulled it out, and will test it in a few minutes.I got one of these a few years ago and its been very effective.
Thanks, man..
Look up stanky see who brought up the innuendo 1st. Not too bright
We realize that, but we put up with you anyway. Quick, go knock off another 8 sets of pullups!
I'm referring to those of us who have had to respond to your inane attempts at workout advice as well as your homoerotic solicitations.
Just showed you in print that you were 1st with the homophobic comment. In print sunshine, in print. Can’t get past that. (And your a moderator lol).
You also stated you do pull-ups and pull downs so how inane of workout advice is if you follow it. Too friggin easy.
And there is no we or us. Stand on your own 2 feet be a grown ass man.
Sweetie take this ass whippin and get to the gym. Pull-ups pull downs rows whatever just stfu with your backwards posts.
You do attract the weirdest posters...what's up with that?
Like the guy who always seems to attract the crazy chicks
Well when it comes to stalkers this one is kind of tame. We have one on the board now who stalks me, NUTS and a couple of others who has registered over 200 names so far. He's very reminiscent of TSopranoRU, who was a special kind of psychopath. John once tracked down that he had registered in excess of 700 names. He used to go to other boards, register a name, start trouble over there then bring it back to our board. He also stalked John O and I on IM and social media.
Actually no. The board stalker goes after me because I'm the one who continually has to respond to the reports and emails generated once he registers a new name and starts going about his business.
I have no problem with beef, in fact I enjoy grilling steaks on Sunday while enjoying a well aged single malt scotch.
I have posted posts from Dr Paddy Barrett elsewhere in this thread. I mentioned grip strength and longevity. Here is a post with some data. If you are not comfortable with pullups, you can carry dumbbells to build grip strength. There is a move called farmers carry, which mimics carrying bucket's. The other metric is balance. Working on ankle mobility and stretching are important too.

I have mentioned this before too. A lot of great info on X, formerly Twitter. I shrug and laugh when people say it is a bad platform. Like life, it is what you make of it. I take the good and ignore the bad.
Congratulations. I have orthotics and they (plus the passage of time) have helped. It is also good to do exercises to stretch the calves.
You can do a lot with just body weight and a few kettle bells would start with that first.
Plantar fasciitis usually doesnt resolve that quickly, no matter what you do.
Calf stretches plus alterations to help stretch the plantar fascia. Orthotics help support the arch and fascia. Preferably custom orthotics vs OTC.
Yes, mine are custom. I'm not really enthused about them, but I do think they help. I am blessed in having health insurance that was willing to pay almost all the bill for them.
It did for me. I had it for 2 weeks and that first step in the morning was a bitch. Tried all sorts of rehab but same every morning. I bought the splint and wore it overnight and it was like magic. It was uncomfortable at first but worked for me.
I had PF in both feet for 2 years. Affected both the Arch and the heal in both feet. And the real B@ of it was that I was commuting into the city at that time. It was horrible- getting Orto was a waste of time unless you are also buying new over sized shoes. Even the most high quality/fitted etc still raised my feet to high for my shoes and then I had pain on the tops of the feet too.
I did the stretches all the time but was told not to bother with the overnight splints.
One day- it seemed to just disappear. and that was over 7 years ago - but it was the worst. It is one thing when I hear an Athlete has it now, I feel for them.
"Frunk" brings to mind my first car, a 1971 VW Beetle with the engine in the rear and the trunk up front.
I was willing to try anything and this was recommended on YouTube. Now I just need something to help with tennis elbow.
