Maybe the strain to get them up in the air to the starting point is putting pressure on the wrists. It's only once per set at the start of each set, but it's enough to hurt my wrists. Plus the bicep workouts strain them too. I need a spotter.
That explains your newly found open-minded attitude in the gay porn thread.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Maybe your form is shit. Youtube some form and grip videos and fix it.
Really? Still browsing the gay porn thread?

Not much to do with form when you're trying to get the barbells from the ground up to your knees, then up to your shoulders, then lay down on the bench, then moving the weights into position to start the set.

Yes but if it helps it's worth itThey cost money
Does it? I'm not familiar with any kettlebell stereotypes, sorry.

Anyone know of any exercises to strengthen your ankles? Need to build up strength there because I have a pretty hard shot (not boasting or anything) and sometimes when I strike the ball my ankle tends to bend back because of the force. Any help is appreciated.
What's with you guys and exercising weird body parts? Anyway, here.
Told you my reason in my post, and thanks.
What do you guys think of day-to-day diet cycling?
I've been recommended a system involving a 5-day cycle; 3 days of low carbs, with good fats (fish oil, almonds, etc), then 2 days of carb re-feeding (fruits, wholegrain pasta, brown rice) and no fats at all. Apart from that, throughout the cycle is high protein and consistent training.
Obviously the theory is to keep the body guessing and fighting off adaptation as much as possible.
I've also had people tell me this kind of system is a waste of time. Is it more dependent on your goals, lifestyle and what you're trying to achieve?
I think I know precisely what I mean
when I say it's a schpadoinkle day
I've been trying to clear my annual physical proficiency test to attain the highest standard (gold), but I'm having problems with my 2.4km (1.5 mile) run which I need to clear in 10 min 15 seconds for my age group. I'm not too much into physical fitness as long as I can clear this test, and I'm not a fan of working out in gyms although I like running. Currently doing intervals as advised by peers, so hopefully it works!

Wait, what?
So not only does your body adapt to exercise patterns, but it also adapts to make certain diets less effective?
I was going to go on a roast-chicken and mixed vegetables only for 2 months..

So are you lacking speed or endurance?
Well... what are you trying to achieve? Build muscle, endurance, strength or simply losing weight?
Speed. My problem is that I can't sustain the strain on my heart and body for the required duration. And I have a upcoming marathon next month too.

How about building more muscle mass for your quads?
I'd advise a high carb and protein diet with some weight training for your legs, but you'd gain some fat along with the muscle which would definitely get in the way of your marathon next month...
Maybe up your protein intake along with some cycling?
I'm not disciplined enough to stay on diets, and I'm about 15 seconds away from my target during my last time trial. Hopefully this current set of intervals I'm doing will work out and I won't need to worry about muscle building, etc :P

You weak, weak man :P
But yeah with a mere 15 seconds in your way i guess muscle training is unnecessary. It could give you an edge on your marathons though.
1.5 miles in 10 mins, 15 seconds? That's pretty tough, but doable.
I hurt my wrist so I haven't been able to work out in the gym for almost 2 weeks. I've lost about 3 lbs of muscle mass and it's starting to mess with my self-esteem.

You lose muscle that easily?
