SKYE!! OH !!:smiley: You remembered My Lum :slight_smile: I’ll be sure to tell him you said Hello the next time I see him. He lives at my parents house. My mom got him when i was living there for a lil while after I moved back to Denver. I claim him as mine, but he lives with my Mom. He’s big now too–and FINALLY starting to become the big lazy newfie i love so much! not normal Newfie size though, he’s kinda a mini Newfie at maybe 110#

Aww, that sucks…at least you didn’t have to give him away to some stranger. 110# is no mini…lol!
How big do they usually get? Are you still working the graveyard shift? I don’t know how you do it :slight_smile:

I almost choked on my cookie… you press the bar up for OH squats?!
Are you friggin kidding me?

Well, awesome workouts… apparently

Guinness shorts for the win. grin I like how you didn’t really slow down, and how you only grunted the one time despite that set being hard as hell. Bravo. :slight_smile:

And!! That’s some fine rowing you’ve got going. PMPM’s back is sore now and she doesn’t know why (since, you know, you row for her :D). You might have failed at 140 the second time (bench) but 115 is clearly your bitch. 125 is starting to realize it will soon be fodder for your might as well.

Wimpy is in the last cluster of words I’d use to describe you, sheesh. :slight_smile:

I’m in the limbo between the holdouts who still buy CDs and people with Ipods and similar devices. I just hunt songs up on youtube and hammer them into my brain. I’d ‘love’ to see a Rammstein show. They’re touring now as it happens, but it’s not logistically feasible for me to see them. Maybe next year…

yeah awesome. the press and the squats!

Woah, Zac Brown is now Kenny Loggins?

Nice vid Brute! Hell yeah you should be proud of those OH squats.

Love the random gym activity in the background. I always seem to cross paths with the cleaning people and their long electrical cords.

Nice work in here.

laugh If you’ll meet me halfway I’ll be out of the danger zone and we can get footloose for the first time and we can have a heart to heart.

What?

Edit: ^^ For PMPM, with respect to Mr. Kenny Loggins.

your overhead press and squat PR is ridic!!!

you make it look as if your squating 95lbs, it just seems so easy…

hkd! thank you :)!!

Skye!–oh boy…our last newfie was 180 pounds.180 POUNDS! but he was a giant, they typically are anywhere from 100-150 pounds.:slight_smile: SO MUCH LOVE!! I like small people sized dogs :slight_smile: yep, still grave yarding. for the type of work i like to do which is emergency its between one shit schedule and another, i picked the one that pays more…slightly. :{

thanks nikki!! :smiley:

Kristof–Thank you! rows, well with what i was pulling PMPM wouldn’t even begin to feel sore-- I still did it for her! as for the cd internet limbo I do understand, whatever you find will be great! check out clutch too, been listening to them this week too.

thank you alexus!! veg and frenchie :)!


today. warmup.

I think what i can safely describe as a complex is what i do. bb complex, clean to push press. i don’t think i can call them c & j’s. and i’ve kinda lost interst in mastering a real c& j…

bb complex c + pushpress 99#x10,x8,x7,x6,x5
cleans 111, 121, fail at 131. meh

Bulgarians 115x10, 125x8, 135x9, 145x2,155, 170 x 2 singles

over heads bar, 95, 115x8
chinups 3 sets of 3, x2
tried to do some asst dips but was to painful from yesterday. i wasn’t sore, i’d describe it as pain! on my clavicle and anterior shell of my shoulders!! this is what historically happens when i try to do dips. i have got to be doing something wrong. eh. do em later.

:slight_smile:

?!! I was going to tell YOU about Clutch! I saw them forever ago in Portland, they’re awesome- I yelled myself hoarse at that show. :slight_smile: Elephant Riders is mah favorite album by them. laugh I promise, I was sitting here the other day thinking “You know, I bet Brute would dig some Clutch.” SpooOOoooOooky… :smiley:

Your Bulgarians, they’re ridiculous. Maybe you’re going down too far on the dips? You could also try flipping the handles into a different position if your machine is like mine; you can do a close grip or rotate the handles out for a wider grip. I thought the wider grip would be better for me with my longer arms, but the close is actually easier on my shoulders.

One of my top Clutch songs:

Off the beaten path, but you might dig the sound:

:slight_smile:

EYEAH !!! ha ha :D! WORD!!!

Brutie, don’t underestimate your strength. You’re definitely way stronger than me for reps; I might beat you in a 1RM with equipment and hydraulics, but you are just a fucking BEAST!

:D!!! OH !!!

I can’t help it whenever you stop by I get all happy PMPM :D!! Thank you!!! You are total hero of mine! :)!!

Dear Brute:

I’m sorry I doubted you on the Mt. Dew Supernova. I won’t say I’ll never doubt you again, but it will be very unlikely.

Sincerely,

-Kristoph

fucking BEAST is right! :nod:

Quite honestly, I wouldn’t expect anything less of Brute. And the fact that it comes with such a humble attitude . . .

I’m going to have to agree with Kristoph on this one. :smiley:

Oh Brute so awesome! x10!
