How's everyone's 2021? These threads have been full of good stuff in years past.

What are we doing this year?

My daily routine?

On workout days I get up at 4 am and I lift 4x per week. Fasted lifting at 5 am until 6:15. Leave for work at 7 am. Work until 3:30, sometimes 4:30 on long days. I get to bed at 9 each night. I take walks with my son on weekend mornings and that's about the only cardio I get outside of HIIT I do for 10 minutes on occasion.

I eat super clean during the week and no booze. Saturday I eat and drink what I want but that is the only day I stray from eating clean, although Nov-Feb I work on eating more carbs/calories and look to gain 10lbs over those 4 months before leaning out more into summer again.

Also, you'll want to stretch your calves before getting out of bed. To do that, dorsiflex your feet and also rotate your feet around the ankles. This only takes a second or five and it's now a habit for me when I get out of bed, which is frequently! There is a sock (Strassburg sock) and other devices (e.g. night braces) to help keep your calf muscles stretched while sleeping. Those are helpful for many.

Ice also helps. A nice trick is to put about 18 ounces of water in a 20 oz plastic soda bottle and then freeze it. When frozen, you can put it in a sock and then roll your foot over it repeatedly.

Also see, for example,

I just stopped doing standing calf raises with a barbell on my back and haven't had any issues. I've still been jogging to the gym, incorporating some sprints, doing seated calf extensions, etc.

One thing I have changed is I've made an effort to keep the movement slow and deliberate. I have a tendency to bounce the weights and I think that cheats your calves out of some work by recruiting your Achilles'. I've noticed some size gains but it is a slow process.

I work at home, but I'm in my computer chair all day. I need to rig something up to put my laptop on my treadmill. Ideas?

My new gym has a lot of Arsenal equipment, hands down the best I’ve ever used.

What do y’all do for a living? I am really getting frustrated with the lack of activity in my office job.

Is the bike desk a decent option?

I've never used it, but I saw a lot of it in John Meadows videos. What's your favorite machine?

I don’t have a favorite, they are all great for different body parts. The leg equipment is great for different angles. The multifunction is the best to do shrugs on. The OH tripress works your tris really well. The side/front delt raise is super smooth. The donkey calf machine is very cool. I could go on and on, they are on YouTube to see how they function.

I bought myself a peloton this year. Had a little confusion with all the different settings, found the way how to contact peloton here and it all works well now. Use it minimum 2-3 times a week, sometimes more often

Lew since I'm getting in so many steps should I crank up the calories a bit?
