    spinal erector strain

    I pulled one of those son of a bitches 10 years ago, it turned from an acute problem to a chronic problem because i didn't keep flexibility in the muscle as it healed and the right psoas muscle tightened to compensate.

    When maxing on close grip bench, do you touch your chest with bar?(Tall lifter)

    If you use the technique where you keep your back flat on the bench then you shouldn't let the bottom of your elbows go more than 2 to 3"'s below your torso or risk loading up your rotator cuff. As for wrists make sure you don't allow them to roll back when holding the bar, nice and straight so...

    Creatine Kinase (CK) values on blood tests

    if i remember off the top of my head i think the somewhat toxic metabolites of protein digestion and metabolism interfere with the efficiency of creatinine clearance in the kidneys when coupled with exercise, it's something i noticed on the renal floor

    injuries/problems

    Deca works but remember it not only heals but kills pain too so be careful. Another thought is you could be prehypertensive form gaining mass so quickly. Your body might need some time to adjust. Likely a combination of things.

    No carbs after 6PM

    I think people in the no evening carbs camp aren't so worried about fat gain but rather inhibition of fat loss from an insulin spike...when on a calorie deficit. Insulin is pretty much viewed as the enemy in that line of thinking.

    Need Help... Crushed Disc's

    Wow reading that was like reading what I wrote 2 years ago, except it was one vertebrae, not two. It sounds like you know what to do already, but above all make sure you keep your core as strong and fexible ss possible, otherwise your back will start to lock up when you start throwing the heavy...

    Training arms directly Vs indirectly?

    I think most people don't realize how easy it is to overtrain arms with all of the work they do indirectly. Example if I did 6 sets of back and 6 sets of chest on tuesday i'm not going to do 6 sets of bis and 6 sets of tris next work out, more like half that. On gear is a whole different story...
