Working out to the point of being in pain is not good. Lifting until you can't lift any more is not good for the muscles. You are doing more damage that building. Your body uses the nutrients it needs to build muscle to heal the pain. \n\nIT is true that the muscle needs to reast before it lifts again. If you give your muscle a minute to rest between sets you'll be able to lift the same amount of weight more reps. \n\nIf your 'HUBBY' is trying to bulk up and is already in shape try superlifting. You start with the max weight and lift till you can't any more. Then drop the weight five or ten pounds. Lift that until you can't. Repeat process. This will use all of your muscle and build it up. Don't do more that once a week. Strain is bad.

Check with his Dr  before using the answers for medical advice.  Nobody here really knows your husbands condition

dude, i'm happy to help, but you have to take your picture off your little square. seriously.\nanyways, this is normal, your muscles are getting used to the stress you've put on them. you will probablly feel sore if you go really hard one day, but if you continue to work out everyday, it is normal, and GOOD not to feel sore after every workout.\nkeep it up!

If he really wants to exercise he can find ways to incorporate it into his routine.  Why don't the two of you exercise together during your hang out time.

Relax and enjoy it, it's healthy and good for him.  Unless he can't stop or is doing it until he is raw and sore, otherwise, have fun!!

Has he had his throid checked?  A simple bloodtest will be able to answer many questions.  He may even have food allergies that cause him to binge on food.  This is often triggered by stress, other food or drink, chemical imbalance in the brain or body, or heredity, just to name a few!  If he isn't already doing so, he should be keeping a detailed journal/diary of everything that he eats & drinks.  The times included, as well as how he is feeling and what he is doing prior to eating will be helpful if he wants to pinpoint his most "dangerous" binge times!  Have you thought about letting HIM take care of this on his own?  Since it sounds like his problems have become your problems, perhaps if you lightened your load by concentrating on yourself,  he could gain some inner strength if he saw that his wife was happy doing things that did not require him to be her sole provider of happiness.  You may want to explore some type of couples counseling, or go it alone in order to get a grasp on just what seems to making BOTH of you unhappy.  Something is hiding beneath all of this & it will take some time & work to get it out to the surface before it can be dealt with.  If you want to help him, you first must help yourself by becoming educated on your own strengths & weaknesses.  He is an adult & so are you, & being a good wife doesn't mean that you must mother him, (as it sounds like you have been doing).  You say that going out on your own makes him feel worse.  How does it make you feel?  He may be using his weight to manipulate you into staying with him, as you have become his security blanket.  Please get some help before you end up in worse shape than he is in.  This is a complex issue that can & will tear your heart to pieces if you continue to attempt surgery on a patient with no formal training, which in a way, is what you are doing.  One of you has to take charge of yourselves if you are going to survive this & go on...with or without one another.

That depends on him. It could be from 1 min to over 1 hr. If there is a problem he could do exercises to help

Yes this is normal, for some women if you need more information try links below.By the way it is really thoughtful that you are concerned about your wife's body and its' workings.

I am an expert on back problems.  Not because I am a nurse, but because I have the same problem.  Has he ever had an MRI?  He may have herniated discs by now.  If these are not checked out, they can lead to ruptured disc and that is very, very serious.  I had surgery eventually.  Meantime, use what I have been telling everyone.  Apply heat to the area for about 10-15 min a session, followed by ice for the same amount of time.  I really don't condone acupuncture especially if he has bad disc.  I believe it could make it worse, that's just my personal opinion.  Tell your dad I will be praying for him.  I hurt just thinking about him.  By the way, I still have 5 more herniated discs and It hurts.  God bless your dad, and you for your concern.  You must bve a wonderful son to your parents.

I think any excercise is good.\n\nas long as it's not too much.\n\nTry it and see if it gets better or worse.\n\nOnly you will know if it helps or hurts.

Muscle conditioning, pain reflex conditioning, and good acting.  I bet it does hurt, but he's trained himself not to feel it.

He needs to change his life style a bid,change his eating habits lose some pounds no more sodas with caffeine also no coffee.\nExercise is very important he needs to walk fast or run 30 minutes minimum a day . You have to be nice to him and give him some massage or he can go to a person for a real pro massage i personal think that a massage with love is the best .If you don't see a change in 20 days he needs to go to the doctor to check his eye twitch just to be on the safe side .let me now if you need more help .Also making love is great helps a lot .

O.K., this same scenario has happened in my long-term relationship many, many times and there is always a reason why he "can't" work out or do active things with me. I finally had to come to a point where I realized that some people are active people and some are not and never will be. You can "encourage" him to exercise and get active until you're blue in the face, but eventually you will need to either accept that it's not going to happen (unless he joins the military and they force him to exercise) or find a different man who wants to be active, like you do. The "I have bad ankles/knees/gout" excuses never stop people who are MISSING limbs or are completely blind from becoming world class athletes: http://www.athleticachievement.org/adhof/ . Take it from someone who knows the signs and excuses like the back of my hand, even if it looks like he's finally committed himself to an exercise program, it won't last.  If you love this man enough, you'll let him be the couch potato he was born to be and find friends or neighbors to be active with. If you haven't decided yet if this man is the "one" for you, then I would encourage you to let him go and find the strong, fit man you're probably needing in your life.

Yes,  My husband.  A good elbow to the rib cage usually causes him to roll over and gives me some temporary relief.

Since you both work out at a gym, maybe you could start up a converation about how some of the equipment works or ask his suggestions about some type of exercise.  Guys like to give advice...so boost his ego!

There is no problem. But overworking one part would not help as fat gets burnt from the place where it was last deposited & not from which part of the body youn work out.

Yes, it wouldn't hurt.  After all if thats what you really want to do use the time to your advantage.  You will have to get in shape anyway so why wait.
