Bikini Prep: Road to Vegas

Legs ish
Squats ish
Deads 5x10 w/ 135
Quad X

Where the squat rack is incredibly uneven so i was limited to the weight i could Clean and Press but really I just wanted to feel the motion anyways. I didn’t want to be stone cold when I finally get to use a real gym.

Deads i moved my stance and grip out some and it felt great. Lot of hams and glutes.

Faded down the stretch but i mostly just care about that first exercise and that went well enough.

Polar fun turn the brain off movie. Big fan of Mads. And if you like like him then this movie is for you wink

Immigration spoke with an immigration lawyer today. That was very reassuring. Turns out our biggest hurdle was put in place by Trump (no surprise there) but because it was trump there is a strong chance it gets over turned and then we don’t really have hurdles after that other than just doing the process.

Decent enough workout.

So fkn sick of being sick so yup sick again. I can’t wait to get out of this city. I’m good enough for the gym today but missed all weekend. It’s not drinking because i have been getting sick regardless of drinking. On the plus side we are t minus like 8 days or some shit.

Been freaking out over apartments. No drivers license so i can’t even get a moped which kind of limits location unless i want to pay $40 a day in ubers (i don’t) or spend 2+ hours a day on buses (again, i don’t). Then all the apartments in the location i want get terrible reviews. Ugh. Worst part is i can’t really do much with out being there so here i am just sitting, waiting while being perpetually sick.

So they have laws regarding mopeds and engine size?

Where I live it ids under like 100cc’s you don’t need a license/tag I believe.

Holy shit! It used to be 50cc but that was like 10 years ago but apparently now it’s anything. I can get an electric aided bike but they are like 2k, a gas car would be like 1k-2k (cuz I’m cheap AF) and an electric car would be around 5k (my intentions are to save for that).

I could be way off. I know it’s low, it might be 50

A big open armed welcome from the Silver State. Look forward to you joining our ranks.

Win big and get comped tix to Nascar, the Raiders or the Golden Knights. I’ll fly down and join you. lol.

Looking for a place to move into from far away is almost impossible. I’m still looking in the UP.

it varies state to state, in Colorado it used to be 50. I called a Las Vegas moped dealer and he was all like “technically you can buy what ever you want”, not helpful dude. It does look like they are pretty lax on that stuff though but I just am too old to risk it.

Thank you!!! I might get tickets to the Thor Hall fight, Stefi Cohen is on the card now too.

For shits and giggles I was looking for home gym equipment and plates…

Get it? Imperial facepalm? Because US still uses the imperial system? Any who it turns out that the cheapest KG plates I could find (so far) were the Rogue Calibrated metal ones. The price of those is actually pretty comparable to most shitty 45s you find on the internet. Unfortunately Rogue has some pretty cheap 45s though.

Also any body who wants to be the best president ever:

Switch to metric
Get rid of daylight savings time
Legalize Weed
Get rid of electoral college
Stop gerrymandering

Boom, GOAT status achieved, you could probably also de-patent insulin and allow ex cons to vote but baby steps.

You can get a kit to convert a regular bike into an electric bike. That is about $500. The kit bikes are actually superior to the fully manufactured ebikes because they aren’t speed limited. If you buy an ebike, they are governed at like 18 mph. My buddies kit bike can go about 40 mph.

I think you could buy a decent bike, and the kit for $800-$1000. You don’t need a light weight bike or anything with the electric. Just get a sturdy steel framed one. The kit will take 1-2 hours to put on.

Also, if you get one, get one that is rear wheel powered. They sell some front wheel drive ones, but they look sketchy to me.

This is genius, I will reopen this investigation then.

You gotta remember it’s already like 95-100 for the highs and won’t regularly be cooler until September. Being on an bike, especially one you have to power at all, in 110 degree weather, on asphalt is going to be straight hell.

My buddy loves his ebike. He lives in Colorado, and it does get a bit cold, but he is able to ride it year round. After a bit of having it, they went down to one car.

I would recommend going with the biggest wattage kit you can get (probably a 1000w) with a big battery too. The bigger motors are more efficient (the bigger motor uses less electricity to go the same speed as the smaller kit). IIRC, the kit might only be like 2-$300. The battery is the cost driver, and might be 3-$400 for a good one.

Pretty happy with the Dum Inc, form and pauses might make it a PR

Ran Errands all day, pretty annoying. Wifey got a Continuous Glucose Monitor so thats awesome.

Weeded out a ton of Apartments then it looks like 1 of our top picks is taken but a new one popped up. It looks location to a gym won out over location to work #Priorities LOL. Its just getting to the strip is pretty easy, getting to a decent gym is considerably harder #VegasPriorities

Fit Chick Lunge

Deficit Deads kind of sucked, both ways. So I think I will keep them in. Adding Bands will be fun. The real test is how normal deads feel in a couple days. Hamstrings and back were too beat up after deads to clean and press weight for squats then I couldnt even hit depth.

No idea what the fit chick lunge is really called. I did them in the Assisted Pullup machine thingy.

The Great Shoe Divide of 2021 Blood will be spilled. What an awesome movie that would make. Comedy Horro obv. Wifey and her sister have over 100 pairs of shoes to divide up. I know my sneaker and stilletto heads are all like 100? Thats it? But I have 2 pairs of shoes. Flip Flops and Gym shoes.

That is right up there on the poverty shoe scale mate. Even I have more that 2 pairs and I have literally no interest in clothes. Heck I have 2 different pairs of boots just for riding the motorbike.

“Is this dress too slutty?”

“We’re going to Vegas, nothing is slutty enough.”

Wife started packing. Funny times. Exciting times.

I would start packing but anything i do Wifey is just going to redo it so not much sense.

Is the wife excited about the move? I know from your postings it seems she’s really close with her family, are any of them coming with y’all?

Do you think this is a temporary move or more of a long term deal?
