On a similar note, the rising social media bodybuilding star talked about his bulking-up process, and how his joints remain healthy because of it. Sulek shared, ?So when I?m fully bulked, my joints love it. It is almost impossible for me to get tender knees. Unless I squat upwards, of five plates. And that same thing for my elbows on pushdowns.?

He also admitted that he realized how his joints behave when he is cutting down. The young bodybuilder said, ?So when I am cutting down I can tell, I?m more prone to like feeling tender. I think that is kind of why I have been doing more slow and controlled sets as the openers rather than just trying to load up as much weight as possible. Just so it feels a little better on my connective tissue that is.?
