Last week I was on the leg press on the 4th set getting full ROM at the bottom of the eccentric I felt and heard a huge pop in left ribs right down the bottom end and now my ribs are pretty sore. Doc said it would most likely be muscular. The bloody noise was insane and the pop I felt internally...
I am looking at a few different options, just wanted some input. I just hit 51, still work out daily. Looking for I guess a combo of a testosterone boost, with strength and endurance/recovery increase to maintain my regimen. Has anyone tried bdg performance labs, the first thing that came up...

I get an hour in the morning to workout and I'd love to get lean, get strong, get fit (as anyone would) but given time, age and recovery, is it actually possible to do all things?
I love strength training, I love sprinting, I love long distance running, I love HIIT workouts. Is it possible to...

Looking for wisdom from the usual suspects on ancillary exercises. I'm running 5/3/1 triumvarate, with quite a few ancillary exercises to choose from. What I'd like to hear is which exercises would complement, or work opposite each major lift muscle group.
Brief hx is Stronglifts, then...
We know what it is.
when we do multi joint movements the smaller muscle fatigue before there is any real inroad to fatigue of the larger muscleture in the exercise, hence doing multiple sets.
as an example; (primary larger muscle)
the press; (triceps)
pre fatigue the delt's with a lateral...

Does the ability to recover increase in proportion to our ability to get stronger (more muscular)?
please share your experience, only if you have been working out *continually* for no less than 3 years.
i suspect we need to do less overall exercise to continue to even stronger.

There is a school of thought that says that frequency of training is of greater importance than sheer volume e.g. if you do 12 sets for muscle group X once per week you will see a greater benefit doing 6 sets twice per week.
I can see the logic in this in regards to being able to increase...
