LOL@fishsticks! Jules you are disgusting.
I don’t have any pics, it’s small and weird like me. I’ll go look again on Sunday with the kid, and if she’s OK with it, I’m signing.
No pics for you either Rug, I only do video now that my camera works well.
Dianab
Nice squats and pulls. Nice work
I like the pullups + GM’s together.

Thankfully, your buddy steered a non fishstick, b.o. tenant my way for which I’ll be eternally grateful.

Yeah he told me about that, FB is like a parallel universe! I would have taken that apartment in a minute, but the commute to work would be a bitch. I’m on my way to training connections in Ottawa, one of your buddies must have been bored and watched all my vids last night, got some interesting feedback this morning.

Anything goes with pull-ups, except fishstix.

I saw that 
However, I thought your depth was good. That goes to show you what I know.
Back in my bench shirt. I can get it on and almost seated by myself, if I don’t re-gain some meat, I’ll buy a new one for the fall.
warmed up a with the bar, trying to get the left shoulder greased.
5x65
2x85x5 reps
2x95x3
shirt on
135 fail, pressed to high
135 good, no pause
135x3 with commands, Jonathan forget how to do commands
145x5 singles, all fail but we had a laugh
Trying to get set up well, I will be able to press the 145 again soon, just have to work some lock out and boards and technique, so everything LOL
shirt off
3x95
8x75
10x65
Tried to do some rope pulls, bad idea triceps are fried.
DB press/DB rows w/30lbs dbs
5x8 reps
Pull-ups/cleaning up the gym
3, 3, 3 tired
put away a shit load of DBs, bars and plates because the place was a huge mess
Straight Leg DL, just because the bar was there and I was warmed up from fixing the DB rack anyways
5x135x5
D, what size/type is your shirt? If you want, I can bring my 36 Fury to Ottawa and you can play with it while we’re there. If you get more out of it than your current one, you can borrow it till whenever.
thx Jules, it’s also a 36 which is a size big to start with, but it was fine in April for a first shirt. It still has some pop, and I’m confident that with some more practice and lock out work I’ll be able to get back to 150 in it. Bring the Fury, I’m not sure if I’m going to be lifting at the meet anyways, it’ll depend on if there are any no-shows. I’ll need to get a new suit and shirt if I don’t regain in the next few months. Maybe I can find a padded sports bra to wear underneath and see if I get away with that LOL.
We’re getting some rain today, finally a break from the heat, so I’ll do one last apartment hunting blitz before I decide to take the small, old and weird one I found.

Good luck with the apartment hunting. I hate moving, but due to a series of circumstances I have moved on an average of every 2.5 years since I left high school in 1983. You would think I would have it down to a science by now. Somehow, I keep accumulating STUFF. Not to mention having three horses, a dog, two cats, and until recently, four rabbits.
Is it old and weird in a funky, fun way, or in a sad way?
Well, Chrys, moving sucks one way or another but it’s all good in the end.
It’s an 1910 building on the river here on the north end of the island. Not uncommon, but small rooms and weird layout. Not sad, just old, which works for me. I’m a sucker for punishment LOL.
Going to take a drive around today and check out other areas before I decide for sure.
So rack pulls today, umm I always hated these so I’ve been told to do them LOL, go figure.

Checked the apartment by the river again and decided it’s too small for all my stock. I found a way nicer one though and they will let me know this week. It’s more expensive but beautiful, quiet and of course with water view. Can’t live without that (:
Nice pulls!! I wish to fuck my gym would get a power rack. How can a gym not have a power rack??
Thanks, I’m having fun lately in the gym.
If my boss had his way, there would be no weightlifting in my gym, I shit you not he said this is not a weightlifting gym. He wants to get rid of the deadlift platform because of the douchebags who drop heavy DBs on the floor, which has nothing to do with deadlifts.
So I’m lucky to still have that rack.
Nice Job!!
very nice pulling !!!
And DianaB I must ask again if all strong women in Canada pull heavy shit in hot shorts?
I train at a ymca with no rack… none. but it has a pool.
yes its a low point.
so I joined a second craptacular gym just to utilize their ghetto rack.
kmc
yep, all of us do, every single one wears hot shorts. except in the winter of course, it gets cold in the igloos.
do not let the presence of a rack fool you into thinking it’s a good gym, that place makes craptacular sound really good.
i’ll train tomorrow at a gym close to my other job, it’s small but they have a few racks and good pulling bar, and once hey get to know me i’m sure they’ll let me bring chalk (:
Why am I up at this time, because J gave me 3 caffeine pills before training and now I am so tired but no way I can sleep, they are great but they make talk in long sentences too. No guarantee on any spelling either.
bar whatever, my shoulder is killing me, I need to pay out the 75$ and go to Kinetex and fix this.
95x5
2x135x5 reps

2x175x1, way easier than last week
205x1 suit
225x1
2x245x1, here is the first one
2x135x5
squats went good tonight, but I cannot get a decent camera angle, that craptacular gym is packed to the roof with useless shit, 2 big hack squat machines beside my rack. They felt deep enough and my suit is fitting a bit better, still need to shorten the straps but if I keep eating that will be all. 129.4 this morning.
Walk outs with 315
3x10 one mississippi, two mississippi
these were not really walk outs, more like unrack and hold, my shoulder was feeling great after squatting but killed doing these
GMs 5x105x5/Pull ups 4,4,4,4,4
Sooooo not used to heavy weight, but will get there fast, right now I’m fried though. I’ll do some accessory work on Thursday. Tomorrow since it is a holiday and I don’t have to work for once, I am getting my bike tire fixed and taking a long ride for some active recovery.
Good job Diana. I’m glad you’re starting to feel better and get back in the groove. The 205 was super deep.
When did you finally fall asleep?
Very impressive squatting.
