so week 2 of gym and I did in fact hurt myself. Fucked up my lower back doing deadlifts and/or squat. I practiced the first week with low weight and felt fine and then increased the weight a few days ago and went to near failure and the day after lower back pain. I was just standing in front of the mirror doing a form check and I think I found something. My back is very concave, probably more than average. I think in an effort to not bend forwards I bent the opposite way too much. So I think I need to actually bend forward a bit to prevent arching into a C shape when the weight is heavy. Does this sound right?

When you are sick your body burns more calories to fight the infection and also you lose your appetite. This is the ultimate way to lose weight fast. Why aren't you sickmaxxing?

>Advice for new runners:
- Build up speed and mileage SLOOOOOWLY (start with 15 minutes, increase mileage at most 10% per week);
- It will feel like you're going slow, you are; don't worry about setting good times for a couple of months;
- If you start to feel pain anywhere, stop and rest;
- Don't try to copy what pros are doing. Do what feels natural; and
- Once you can comfortably roon 6 miles/10km, start thinking about a goal in terms of race distance and time, and look for a training plan for that goal (see below for suggested plans).

How do I stop being worried about atherosclerosis? For fuck's sake, the Wikipedia article says
>Early atherosclerotic processes likely begin in childhood. Fibrous and gelatinous lesions have been observed in the coronary arteries of children.[23] Fatty streaks have been observed in the coronary arteries of juveniles.
How do you not worry about this?
And it happens to young people too:
>A much-cited report involved the autopsies of 300 U.S. soldiers killed in Korea. Although the average age of the men was 22.1 years, 77.3 percent had "gross evidence of coronary arteriosclerosis".

Is there a realistic way to reverse this?
