STAY/GET BACK IN SHAPE VOL 3.0 -- A New Niketalk = A New Thread

Wanted to do muay thai as a younger, but fear prevented me to do so
It is both spectacular to watch and I like how it draws bodies, all about harmony unlike traditional boxe
Just my opinion but muay thai and swimming draw bodies in a nice way.
Sure the training for boxing would be a nice thing for both of you, only fear according to me is about real fights then.
And jumping rope, but that's just me, I am not enough coordinated

Boxing and muay Thai are entirely different discipline. I know I would be gassed out doing the boxing drills. However, I can safely say that I would trounce any boxer when it comes to swimming. The coordination, breathing are different. With everything going back to the way it was, I'm anticipating the great influx of people heading to the pools which I'm avoiding. That or I just have to go really early in the morning like 6 AM. On the other hand, I miss cold swims during the fall/winter season.

I know nothing about lifting weights as I lift very light weights but I also noticed my veins are more visible in the evening, might be due to the fatigue, like when you don't sleep and see all these veins on your shaved head ?
Water could play a role as well because I noticed this too when I was drinking coffee but no water then, all this visible even on hands or skull in some cases...I don't know if it helps :s

Try drinking lots of water and less caffeine.

I wasn't complaining about it Just answering to him about possible reason(s)

Sort of a noob question (even tho i've been lifting for almost 2 decades.)
I'm finally vascular in my bi's and tri's (sounds weird but a goal i've always wanted. could always see my forearm veins but never bis and tris)
I don't see them as prevalent in the morning as I do at night before bed. Why is that? Is it a water thing.? Because I usually cut water around 7-8 p.m. so I'm still drinking it up until that point.

It's usually a carb thing, especially sugar. You can test it by low carbing a little bit throughout the day and eating some gummies later on. If it's gym day, you'll definitely notice it after a workout then eating gummies. About a half pack of life savers gummies should do the trick.

melatonin makes my arms really vascular (temporarily that is)

Your legs are gonna be sore as hell if you haven't done any leg work and go hard right away.

Gonna be cursing every time you have to squat down to pick something up.

I play soccer and get tired early playing a full field game

are you not doing drills for conditioning? I'm sure there are lots of youtube videos that you will find helpful. I'd say no easy fix but could take awhile.

Yea. I don't do anything. I should probably start running but I hate running if there's no balls involved (pause)

same with other sports but it needs to be done. in my sports field, I hate suicide drills. but that thing really helped us a whole lot and bring out your potential.
