Fucking had it with the internet and computers. Will keep updating this log, unless interest runs out. Otherwise, will be around from time to time. Will still bring my gems of joy to your log Lula, Nadia, and Heracles from time to time. ![]()

What happened man? I recently had to change browsers just be able to log in to youtube. I hate chrome btw, so itās a painful thing. I just keep two browsers open one for youtube(chrome) and the other for everything else.
My whole life growing up, we never had money for TV, computers, internet, cells, etc. Just had the basics, and that was awesome. My time was spent on ranches, the river, the lake, the mountains, etc. Then I went to college, built my first computer, and all went down hill from there.
Was like a fucking crack attack. Couldnāt stop playing games, fixing shit, hacking, etc. Then I started working for VNet, and it got even worse. Now, Iām burnt out, and pissed off I ever learned what a computer is. Itās one reason I quit lifting after high school. Again, crack addict syndrome.
Iām to the point now, where I see a porn, and it does nothing for me. As a friend last night said, if porn doesnāt even thrill you anymore, you have been desensitized by the internet. Plus, the amount of stupid people out there makes me want to punch babies.
So yeah, a way bigger issue then just a fucking browser. lol Iām going back to my roots. Other then a game League of Legends from time to time, this forum, EliteFTS, my GMail account, and another forum, Iām done. Getting rid of the DroidX and going to a pay by use phone with no texting as well. Doing this, before I really blow up. Also going to move. Fucking pot head fuck of a roommate. Should of learned my lesson with my cousin⦠God damn lazy fuck.

Koub treat it just like you would powerlifting. You have your intense phases and you have your deloads. Sometimes the deload or time away or time off may vary in length depending on how long of a break you need. Take a deload from porn specifically and you will be fine. I know that sounds weird, but simply taking a break will help. Itās kinda like eating the same thing every day, sooner or later youāll get tired of it, but after a break and you come back to it and it will be good again.
Youāre essentially addicted to the serotonin release, and youāve kinda built up an intolerance to it. Where normal levels donāt effect you like it used to. So you just simply need a break and if everything else is good youāll go back to or close to normal. That has been tried and true for many many people for that kind of stuff.
As for the stupid people, i bring you Vermin supreme? See video. Tell me that doesnāt make you laugh your ass off at the stupidity. There are always going to be people with an abundance of bats loose in the belfry.
fuck man, you make it sound like im a porn addict⦠lol. porn was a generalization. itās anything. all the rage faces, demotivationals, etc. all the same shit, as people canāt think of anything new. sheep as I call them. so many weak minded people. why I have limited myself to email for Josh, here, and Elite. all strong minded and body people.
I do appreciate the joy you bring to my log.
Iām interested in your training, if it helps you to log it (I know I often look back at what I did months prior, or to double check numbers). If you need a break, you can randomly drop PR news and videos into my log anytime. ![]()
Thanks Lula. Donāt see me taking a break from here. Need to move from this shit head of a roommate. Been searching all day, but not many will take a dogā¦
Keep up the good work man, youāre a strong mofo and getting stronger.
Also good luck on your roomate situation. Bad roomates can suck really bad, iāve had a different roomate every semester iāve been here in missoula. Good luck bro.
Hey, good luck with finding a new place. A fresh start will be awesome. Iām one of the few (or so Iāve learned) that actually loves to move. I even like helping people move. But, youāre a little far away. Loading and loading boxes, carrying one end of a couch, assembling box springs, rolling up area rugs. Then, beer and pizza. Yep, itās a fucking party.
And I went through a spell not too long ago where I gave up on the internet and all of its information. I donāt want to know what anyone else thinks I can or can not do or should or should not do. I know what I want, and Iām going for it. All of it.
5 minutes on bike
Dynamic stretching
Deadlifts - worked up to 300x3 for a few
Upper back stuff
Abs
45 minutes of rolling and stretching
300 felt like 135. Thatās kind of scary. lol Good work out. Need to go see the chiro. Upper back is all sorts of jacked up. Lats, teres, traps, etc keep cramping from it tooā¦
@Heracles - Seems to be my issue when I have a roommate too⦠Bunch of idiots.
@Nadia - Last time I moved, I didnāt eat all day, cause I wanted to get the shit done. Was not a good time bringing a heavy desk up stairs at the end of the day. lol. Iāll take a Mountain Dew with my pizza.
Maybe thatās my problem. I havenāt drank a beer or liquor going on 1 year, and 1 monthā¦
I donāt mind having advice given to me, as long as you can fucking do what you say. Thatās why I love Josh doing my programming. Guy is great, and understands what Iām looking to do. I told him to push me as hard as he can, and he is. Like I said on twitter the other day, before I deleted it, āI knew how to get strong, but what Josh is doing doesnāt have words to even describe.ā
5 minutes on bike
Dynamic stretching
Rotator cuff warm up
Bench - worked up to 165x8 for couple
Couple other bench movements
Abs
45 minutes of rolling and stretching
Light and quick. Just laid the 165 on my chest, and exploded as hard as I could, which caused half my body to lift (yes my 330 lbs of sexy beast). Chick asked how heavy it was. She was baffled that it was 40 lbs more then her. lol Had my chiro do his magic today as well. Just laid on the table, and just from that he went āOh wow.ā Great sign right away. Apparently my spine kind of made a C shape almost. No wonder I was in constant pain, and my upper back would cramp like no other⦠Now my mood is better overall, and talked things through with the roommate. He understands where Iām coming from with my past of abuse (yesā¦) and will keep it away, and start helping out. Hope for the best.
This is good man, things are lookin up for ya. Itās fun when you do the relatively light weight hard and explosive and you come off the bench like that.
5 minutes on bike
Dynamic stretching
Squats - worked up to 420x5 for a couple (if you fucking want to call it thatā¦)
Couple more exercises that made my lower back feel like shit
Tried rolling the lower back but not happeningā¦
So I sit here, wanting to punch something⦠Ever since I pulled my IT band, squats have been nothing but a fucking joke for me. Use to be my best lift. I love squatting, but Iām almost to the point now where I despise it. FML⦠Every step or move I make, all I can say is āfuckā. Probably broken the world record by now for how many times you can say it.
Kouba-you canāt pull your IT band-you pull the shit that attaches to it. Check out your hamstring and quad length, and your hip internal and external rotation. I can send you videos if you need them. Just from reading what youāve written several times Iām guessing itās something in there , and once you fix it, squats will come. Only get angry enough to do something to fix it.
Iāve found this website helpful. Iām not sure if itāll link so if not Iāll PM it.

now that iāve put my foot DOWN, 165 explosive bench sounds sweet indeed. Good work.
Hey, I followed you over here from Lulaās log. I didnāt know you were working with Josh. Iām going to run my current plan for a couple more months, have a 1RM test day and then assess whether coaching makes sense.
Iāll be picking your brain a bit about Josh if that is OK. Nothing confidential, of course.
Lula - I know you canāt really tear (if you do you have other shit broke too), but without going to the doctor, I never knew what it was. My guess was the Lateralis, but meh. Need to enlighten me on the quad/hammie thing. Havenāt read that one. Donāt laugh, but my internal rotation sucks. Maybe 10 degrees. External is about 50-60 degrees. mobilitywod is good stuff. Used a couple of things from there. You can put your foot down anytime. You are the one actually able to school for this stuff. Iāll take anything you can give.
giterdone - Pick away. Josh is an awesome coach. I have no plans on leaving him anytime soon.
So yeah, back is fucked. Took 3 hours of heat, mobility, rolling and stretching to walk half way decent. So, instead of taking the pup out to the river again today, itās rehab day. Hopefully after hitting it hard today, itās doing a lot better. One thing Iāve been given is decent recovery time, as long it didnāt rip. No bruising, so I doubt it. Got to get ready for deficit deads on Thursday. Yes, I am that fucking stupid and going to attempt. lol I did straight legs a couple of weeks ago with the same injury.
Lula, thank you for pointing me back to mobilitywod and making me check some things. You are a queen. Fuck that, saint. Queen of saints maybe? Anyways, dinner on me if somehow we cross paths one day.
Just woke up, and little back pain at all. Did some warm up stuff, and feeling pretty damn good. Deficit deadlifts are back on the menu tonight.

So drained from deficits yesterday. Gut check day to finish. Doesnāt help I did more reps then written. lol Icing elbows as they flared up a little. Buddy was pissed he was having issues with 135. I see the fire building in him. hehe
