Bulldog: Working on regaining man card

Damn dude, its supposed to get hotter next week, be careful.

The gym looks extra gnarly and hard core with the rust!

That viking press setup is awesome! What’s holding the far end of the barbell? Is that like a home made landmine that anchors to the pin in the power rack? You should take down this photo and start selling those!

Are K Shrugs Kelso or Karwoski?

Definitely digging that Viking set up, and the use of it in 5/3/1.

Im trying… this makes twice so far this year that excessive heat has kicked my ass. Probably feeling my age.

Ironically it just happened from poor upkeep
On my end lol.



I had a fabricator at my work modify a landmine attachment i had.

The handle i bought

Bar i use is a swiss bar. Since im concerned about the odd torque bending a regular bar.

Combo… i guess.

That whole setup is great. I love that modified landmine and using the more stable swiss bar instead of bending a regular barbell is smart. Thanks for the photos.

Pup worked up a little today on squats doing some sub max singles.

He wasnt happy with his form or bar speed.

I do not know which generation is which. I did not know I was a Boomer until a couple of years ago. But, your Gen X picture is a hoot. There was/is something to be said about two kids squaring off and settling a dispute. Now they get arrested by the school officer. Or, they meet with a school counselor and explore their feelings. I am not sure what generation that is.

When I was young and stupid I climbed stone mtn without thinking to bring any water. That sucked.

We were undoubtedly smoking pot, too.

Don’t forget your water!

Or the pot… :laughing:

This time of year I would much rather float the hooch in Helen than climb Stone Mountain.

Have fun!
