Get some!
Not sure what I did yesterday, but my lower abs are killing me. Woke up this morning and couldn't even roll over in bed without excruciating pain.
The good kind of excruciating sore or bad kind? Im highly aware of abs and the level of soreness now since having hernia surgery. Don't ever want to deal with that kind of bad pain again.Originally Posted by krugerr
I'm sat down right now, so it's okay. I'm not having to move or tense.Originally Posted by itsmybody
This morning it was excruciating. Not like doms, but actual pain. I've had horrendous ab doms where you can't move. But that is entirely different to this. It's quite low down on the abs, above the pubic area.
That sucks! Keep an eye on it. Mine was an umbilical hernia and I didn't realize what I had done. Unfortunately my dumb a$$ didn't back off at all. Honestly thought at the time when the belly button poked out the body was acting like a turkey baster saying I was done....this led to me doubling over on Easter Sunday at church, a big ole purple belly button, a trip to the ER and a surgery. Lesson learned....listen to your body.Originally Posted by krugerr
Just my two cents from experience but it it's a different kind of hurt you should get it looked at before it gets worse. Have met a couple guys who had that lower pain in the pelvic area too and it wasn't good news. They did have surgery but were back at it better than new in no time at all. It really doesn't take that long to heal. I'm conservative and tend to be cautious now more so than in the past....again just my opinion. You do what you think is best for you. Hope you feel better quickly and keep us posted.
Thanks for the advice! I'll take it easy and get it checked. I don't want to end up the same way with a surgery!
Touch wood. I've never had a proper injury from training. I get clicks and pops in some joints. And some pain around the knees when squatting, but this is usually because I haven't stretched my hip flexors!
Yes those good ole 'wee niggles' as @Clarky calls them. Think they are part of the territory with this stuff. Good call on getting checked, better safe than sorry that's for certain.Originally Posted by krugerr

I'm in the same boat, whole body in pain/tight (but not so much from lifting, don't know WTF!). Going see a MD tomorrowOriginally Posted by krugerr
Have you ever had your appendix taken out? Where does it exactly hurt at?
Never have my friend.Originally Posted by RaginCajun
Mine is cured as fast as it arrived. Miraculous. It was horrendous though. Weird.
Keep me posted on your doctor Appt.

Well my back and shoulders have become a mass of spots. I've never had that before I my life.
Getting the Mrs to scrub each night in the shower with anti-bac shower gel.
Not a pretty sight. So uncomfy to sit at work all day.
I think people use zinc oxide? Not sure...Look up @Girlygymrat if I remember correctly she knows how to solve this. You are very blessed to have a Mrs. help you exfoliate. Best if luck.Originally Posted by krugerr

Amen. Too risky.Originally Posted by krugerr
Unless, there is a pretty girl in the gym, and you need to impress her. Then, no matter what you're doing. You stop, grab some massive dumbells and swing curl until she notices.Originally Posted by itsmybody

Do y'all really do that? Here comes a myth buster.
Yes. Don't act all innocent. Girls all wear yoga pants and squat for attention. Fact.Originally Posted by itsmybody

Now here is a myth buster for you. Nope, we don't all wear yoga pants and we don't all squat for attention.Originally Posted by krugerr
I wear thin loose fitting baggy cotton sweats or cotton/nylon sweats usually and squat for development.
1. Yoga pants are pretty gross if someone sweats to death when working out.
2. The baggy pants still show off curves when squatting
3. There is so much more to be said for imagination.
4. There are def a billion more pleasurable ways to get attention other than squatting.
5. Leggings n yoga pants should be reserved for rest days and the occasional trip to get pizza or chinese

You little devil...even better she would make you a sammich!Originally Posted by krugerr
