Journal FortKnox's Journal: [Gym] Gym 2, Josh 0 12
I got another ass kicking last night. Did legs and partially back. The leg squats really kciked my ass (on the hammer-strength machine, 3 sets of 12 forward, and 3 sets backward). Calves and hammys I did well on (especially calves). Then we started on my back. While working on my lats, I started getting light headed... stomach started to ache. I had to constantly take breaks. The PT asked what was wrong, and I told him the light headedness. He asked when I last ate (this was at 5pm), I told him lunch at 11:30. That's when he said "Don't move, I'll be right back"... within a minute, I was on the floor barely concious. Another PT was keeping me awake until my guy returns with a shake. I was seconds away from passing out. So a lesson to learn, here:
Always have a snack before going to the gym! (Yes indeedy! I'm a stupid idiot!)
Anywho, the bicep sprain wasn't a sprain or a strain, just a really sore muscle. We worked it out and its fine today. I must be favoring the right side too much when working on my arms...

I have often been amused by the fact that I can do twenty to forty minutes of elliptical without even remembering that I have a digestive system, yet thirty seconds into my weight routine and I’m ready to gnaw the sweaty padding off of the pulldown bar.

2. Post-workout meal, within 30 minutes (60 for cardio is OK) after a workout: 1/4 protein (pref something quick-uptake, like a whey+casein shake) and 3/4 simple carbs (fruit is best). Must never be skipped. Ever.
3. Sounds like you're doing too much too soon. Learn technique using lighter weights and once you get the technique correct then you can go he

Chest Press Hammer Machine. The press machine I use is the hammer machine, so its less than this machine. The weights used are freeweights, not those plates, but its still a machine [exrx.net]
Tricep 'regular' machine [exrx.net]
My curl is different. He calls them '21s'. 7 full curls, then 7 from the halfway point and up, then 7 from the bottom up to halfway point, then down. [exrx.net]
I do a set of 10 with each arm of these between my reps of the '21s'. [exrx.net]

there was one guy that puked frequently, but he could do that at the drop of a hat and was kind of a whiner.
