I have somewhere between 12-14 years to work on it, decide away!
It would just end up as a list of amazing, non-replicable feats of strength and heroism, probably causing you to give up the battle before it even started.
Remember you’d have to be able to perform them so that I’d have a bench mark to beat!
I get that muscle ups are cool and difficult but…
Pretty sure not being obese and having metabolic diseases at 50 is a noteworthy achievement these days.

Ooh, burn
Muscle Ups are lower on the list, after things like not being obese, being able to remember where I am most of the time, and technically not shitting my pants every day.

Weird strength standards. Good life standards, haha.
But alas, I get to make the list, so it includes whatever I want to put on it.

I’m confused on the technicalities here? I’ve always considered shitting my pants to be a pretty digital thing. Either I shat myself, or I didn’t, not a lot of grey area

I would assume the technical maybe referred to the “every day”?

Fixed that for you.

To be honest, judging by my current diet I’ll probably fail at those standards.
Which leads me to thinking about how I go about increasing my cals. I currently eat quite a bit of turkey mince (7% fat), woukd changing to beef mince at 20% fat just be a really bad idea? I lose track of things are saturated fats still going to kill me or are they on now?
Last time I saw it my cholesterol was 3.82 (0-5) HDL 0.98 (1-1.5), LDL 2.17 (<3) and triglycerides 1.48 (<1.7). Which I think overall isn’t great but not terrible, I did have a hba1c of 39 though (top of scale being 42) - which tells me my diet is unsustainable and I’m not getting away with eating so much sugar.
Have you ever compared a shirtless picture of you to one of me? Not sure I am the guy you want to ask this, hahaha.
In all honesty: Whatever Stan Efferding tells people, yes, an excess of saturated fat is probably going to be detrimental for most people! Although you would really have to establish what an excess is for the individual. Higher fat meat is not a problem in itself.
Can’t give any answers to the blood work, I am afraid. My triglycerides have ALWAYS been elevated by a fair amount and that includes a span of 2,5 in which I ate vegetarian. Docs were never that concerned though and explained that the range just isn’t a perfect fit for each individual. So seen in relation to other blood markers they never made a big deal out of it .

From what I understand, there’s a significant genetic component. All the men in my dad’s side have it.

Very true. Most of my family’s blood results show the same.

Yeah, the doctors told my grandpa to avoid saturated fats, lots of oils and sugar after a huge medical scare. He’s stuck with it for almost 5years now (very disciplined guy) and 0 improvement 
My mom and aunt, who eats far “crappier”, have normal levels. Even my grandma (moms side) who died of a diabetes related heart attack had pretty much normal levels
Mine are high but skewed towards hdl, ratios still good

That sounds like a perfect justification to carry on recklessly eating my high fat high sugar diet and if I get ill I can blame my genetics or tnation either way I’ll be safe in the knowledge that it definitely wasn’t my fault.

You’re a strongman though so being fluffy is part of the game (ignoring the outliers like Pwn).

I think you missed the part about the diabetes induced heart attack
