I need help optimizing my workout routine.

[Smiter]

Also i didnt know about the wrist bone stuff so Im also going to look into that. Lol i am a teenager ( Im 18 ). Im 6'3

Dont remind me man. I reached 6"3 when I was 13 and this mofo doctor gave me cortisone tabs for a fever, and my vertical growth stopped. Only feet kept growing. I wear size 16 shoes. That mofo took away at least 6 inches off my height.

bpc will act more as a bandage on a wound rather than the wound actually healing ykwim

Wrong... Collagen and BpC= unlock Wolverine.

just my wrist strength lacking behind the strength of all my other muscles. Mainly bc i kinda sorta used to skip forearm training

BpC boosts recovery too allowing you to train quicker especially since you need to train forearms 4 days a week at least.

BRO I LOVE JM PRESS ITS SO GOOD. Bro everyone I go to the gym with hates JM Press but im like wtf? its literally amazing. Ive never killed my triceps like that before and I just love the ache bc its just lets me know Im working well.

Congrats, you have Unlocked master-lifter. JM doesn't just work the triceps, it thickens your elbow tendons, bulletproofing them against future tendonitis.

when people thought I was ego lifting

Fvck that shit man. We're men. Ego is all about us. Men are nothing without egos and without the stones to back it up. Ego lifting, Dick lifting, Nut-raising, do it all. Caveman see, caveman conquers, caveman relishes the lamentation of women. Bad to the Bone.

yoooo u gotta fight that doctor. There are cases of growth plates re opening ( such as mrwollas on tiktok check him out i recommended him to others ).

Hmm ima look into more peps ngl bpc 100% gonna be on the list so is ghk cu.

Yeah i realised with jm press + tricep pushdown I have a slight twang in my elbows.

Yeah I can ego lift if I want like I could full stack all the machines I use but whats the point if its just gonna hurt after a while. 73kg bicep curl isnt even the weight I should be doing I can do 86kg I just brace alot which hurts my sides so I dont do it lol. But yeah that last sentence from you funniest thing I seen today LOL.

Well, you're a newbie so this is the time you can build tendons the easiest. Hyperplasia of the tendons. Also, I am not keen on the 12-15 reps. Strength training is what you should be doing except for the smaller muscles like forearm and calves.

Yeah ik i dont wanna be endurance eagle fr its just that I cant do the proper weights for exercises that require my wrist to be a weight bearer and that means I cant stay in the 8-12 rep range. So i just gotta either force more wrist pain or just do a couple extra reps with lower weights. Hyperplasia of the tendons ima search that up ty youve actually been such a good help for me here so i just want to thank you.

You're welcome. When I had my wrist injury, I used wrist wraps to hold the wrist as immobile as possible while also training normally. Then used wrist cuffs

Hyperplasia of the tendons ima search that up

if you were to search my post history, you will find tendon training regimen. 30 grams of collagen, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C along with specific time under tension training.

Ive got wrist wraps but theyre kinda idk lol just seem fancy with no actual use. I bought them from amazon but idk how effective they actually are lemme link them rq

So i cant link them so ima just attach an image of them

Ive also got hooks for lat pull down/wide grip row that have a wrist strap feature but idk if its specifically designed to stabilize the wrist or just so the hooks can be attached to my arm

na that wont work, you need one where the fist or palm is held by the wrap.

@Wacky are you doing back twice in 48hrs, Tues Thurs? I'd give it more of a rest if it was me. I find my strength, recovery, growth is better if I leave at least 4 days before repeating the same area. I'm currently have to do mine in a 3 rota, instead of 5, as I've blown my back out, and I'm noticing it, I'm having to skip leg day and run day. Next week I'll be back to leg day and run day and a 5days cycle, and I know for a fact it'll have a massive effect on my other days, always does.

I mean I dont feel any fatigue after working out like I feel sore and stuff a tiny bit after i leave and go home and for a couple hours after but then when I wake up im all good. So I dont think Ill be fatigued by thursday since I can still pull the same weights and stuff without sacrificing form and what not.

Yeah, always listen to your body.

 

[frostycobbler]

What I would suggest is to keep the routine but do a progressive overload with fewer reps for each succeeding set. That way you can build strength and challenge yourself safely without too much shock to your body/muscles

 

[Bollerhead]

lol ikr!

I started working out about 3 years ago, and also within a few months, my wrists would be limiting me, so what I did was, I'd lower the weight and perform the reps slightly slower and with better form and control. And that seems to have fixed the issue. And the same thing also happened to my left shoulder or left clavicle, especially when benching. It's because I was just ego lifting. But when you put your ego aside and lower the weight and considerably improve the form and raise the reps to about 10 to 15, keep it in that range, and go to failure, then nothing no joints hurt. And I've been doing this for a while now. I am seeing insane hypertrophy. So it's good that your strength has increased significantly, but maybe don't focus on putting up a lot of weight and focus more on the form and the quality of each individual repetition. Because when I did that, all my joint pain over time completely disappeared. And I go and lift daily for two hours (ppl split) and have zero joint pain. so my question to you is whats your rep range looking like? are you ego lifting?

Totally agree with this. I would let the wrist heal. I used to have repetitive wrist injury. Wearing wrist supports and gloves help. In my experience my wrists were weak and I would get ganglion cysts form when I worked out. It wasn’t body’s way of

Protecting my wrists.

I’m 50 yoa and I can lift a lot but for strength training I lift slow and controlled and focus on my form. U can fatigue out without putting stress on your joints.

I would focus on other exercises and body parts, such as core and legs, for a while til your wrist feels better. And definitely start BPC-157, near the bad wrist, if you haven’t already
