Kid was on hs swim team and getting very muscular.
I was feeling extremely unmuscled in part by comparison.
I did and wouldnot take shirtless photos.
Forearms werecespeciallyvalarming. Theyre still thin from genetics but theyvwere rudiculiys like a weird old bony man. Nit gogood.
I wss skinny yet fat.
Soft looking. Except legs from cycling.
Re injuries…most guys in the gym go to the dumbbell rack pick up too much weight and swing it in a wild uncontrolled bicep curl. Thats most of the session.
Tge sane philosophy seems to bleed over to everything.
do everything at too much weight out if control swinging the weight w momentum and twisting the back to conpensate.
if injurues remain the concern the simple pullup and dip will cover most of thr upoer body snd its difficult to hurt onesself
Do a pulluo w kegs extended srraight when they get easy.
do a muscleup.
Climb a rope. Pick up your dumbells and go for acwalk till you cant hold them any more
do the plank. Youll get hard all over abd the risk of injury approaches zero
Rate of injury in weight training is fairly low per my research. Esp from above ideas.
