Leon36 not sure if I am just misreading your post but not sure exactly what you mean sorry like I said I am pretty run down so I am probably just a idiot right now… but please explain… and to everyone else thanks for the advice and the averagebroz post was a good read. I really reccommend you all give it a shot atleast once just like I said make sure your eating sleeping and everything is spot on. I generally deal with high stress volume training fairly well but, this had me beat with in 6 or 7 days. Keep us posted maybe you will finds a secret I missed.[/quote]
I believe he is insinuated that you are a beginner, you did a 5x5 program, you should have done a program with higher reps and lower weight, (because he believes this is what beginners should do) and the fact that you got banged up is his proof for that.
I wouldn’t listen to him, since he has said himself he has lifted exactly 7 times. He seems to think he has all the answers, however, because he reads on the internet a lot.[/quote]

Ignore what chris87 say about me or how he interprets me. Guy stalks me in like every thread.

I have clearly stated I have worked out 7 times in my current prgramme but have been training for over a decade off and on and have had two years off, so am restsrting. That doesn’t discount my past experience. Chris87 know that, thus is trolling or extremely stupid and has reading comprehension difficulties.

What I was saying to you is you complainedf I though of ‘run down / flu like symptoms.’
Well that is how overtraining makes you feel. I was doing hapkido 3 x a week, 2 hr session each, a 3x a week full body workout (2 x 12 at the time) and doing intense cardio 3 x a week and felt rundown. So thought that possibly with you bjj, other commitments and your weight trainning prgramme that you were feeling run down do to overtraining.
Thats’s all.
And just because I read soemthing on the internet and it’s not what someone like chris87 agrees with doesn’t make it bs. Be careful around here, this guy is probabl;y some 20 yr old kid who lives in his Mum’s basement…
It’s like him saying 'I’ve been working out (who of us know how ooptimumly)for 5 years, so what some PHD guy who trains atheletes says is BS or coz it doesn’t agree with what my trainer or guy I proscribe to says it’s bs. This is literally THE WHOLE STRENGHT OF the argument of people like this.
‘Uh I’ve been working as an engineer for years, so what some PHD physicist says about a new subatomic particle is BS, because I didn’t ex[erience it and it was published on the internet.’
Clowns. (Not you OP.)[/quote]
I do so because I feel other posters should now that whatever “advice” you give them is coming from a guy who has worked out for a fucking month, and probably has less experience than just about anyone here.
I don’t know if you have trained in the past, but it doesn’t matter. The fact that you may have quit lifting for 2 years says a lot about you.
Trolls don’t generally have a thousand posts and multiple training logs. If I had reading comprehension difficulties I wouldn’t have been able to understand your post, and remember that you’ve worked out a whopping 7 times. That is what reading comprehension is.
I never said everything you read on the internet is false. The problem with you is that all of you “Advice” comes directly from a google search. You have no experience at all.
I am 20 years old. I don’t live in my mother’s basement. I’m in college, where I am a division 1 athlete. You can tell by my profile pic to the left, which shows me playing my sport.
Thing is, you haven’t been working out for years. You’ve been working out for a month. You said you’ve been reading about training for 17 years, and have been training for a month. That doesn’t authorize you to hand out any advice.
