How do you feel about fire extinguishers then?
I’m still a little old school on the tattoo front. For me, you need to either have the right rockstar style or be in pretty good shape to pull them off. I have neither, so I would just look like a dude having a midlife crisis.
Sometimes you paint yourself so negatively I imagine you as a 40 something, with a belly protruding, bald on top, little glasses running down the nose, going to fetch his paper while grumbling 
Touché, but I’m not sure it’s an apples to apples comparison.
Well, I am someone with a quarter-life crisis and don’t care if I look the part!
Is there such a thing? Am I doing my third-life crisis?
How did you find my Instagram?
I am not having my midlife crisis until I am 55. I am living till at least 110.
Isnt he though? 
There is totally such a thing.
It’s funny how people think I’m super hard on myself, but I feel @dagill2 takes the cake.
I don’t know. You’re both not kind to yourself but a few others also fall into that category.
Any Germans in particular you’re thinking of?
@Bagsy I will have a more serious answer for you when time allows. School run first though.
Yes I did include myself, ranging from being a bit hard on me to full on self hate. I didn’t primarely think of me though.
And eat it too.
I can be hard on myself, and there’s two sides to that both positive and negative. The negative side is that I am genuinely fairly unimpressed with my current achievements lifting wise. Given the amount of time I’ve been lifting, it irritates me that most people wouldn’t guess that I lift. While I’m aware there’s many factors at play there from insane expectations from the general public, to a total lack of focus on lifting for aesthetics to having to work off a pretty big “training debt”, it’s something that bugs me a bit because there are some things there that can be changed.
It’s also a conscious effort on my part to remind myself that I’m not a teenager anymore and that I shouldn’t be setting teenager goals. I’ll be 35 later this year, I’ve got 2 kids and a partner I’ve been with a decade, near as damnit. There are more important things to 35 year old me than looking good nekkid or tricks to add a few kg to my squat 1RM and I need to be reminded of that as regularly as possible because I haven’t grown up yet.
Banish him to the Over 35 forum!
Colossus leg death
That’s it, I’ve officially done the hardest set of my life (so far)
Leg press 10 reps + 3 drops of 10 reps. Or it was supposed to be. I went at it too hard, gave too much. i should have used less weight or something. I did 20 then I was dead, and tried to do as many reps as I could
After the vid ends I did 12 reps with only 1 plate per side (yeah pitiful) and my legs were just dying. My quads were burning for many minutes and I could not even stand, stayed on the floor for a while.
Then straight into leg extensions: 10 reps + two drops + 10 partials + 10 secs iso.
Yeah…
Then one set of walking lunges to failure lol
Then straight leg deadlift with bands…
I have many pics from today of my mates lying on the floor. This was probably the hardest session of my life ahah, to be fair I didn’t go to complete failure on the lunges, I didn’t have the mental fortitude anymore to do so a fourth time (yeah because the first exercise was leg curl: 8 reps with 3 secs eccentric + 2 drops + 10 partials + 30 secs iso hold…)
I’m famished and drained…
Your face in that YouTube thumbnail
You look like you’re about to climax in your boyfriend’s mouth
I guess after the leg press and leg extensions, this would come rather quickly.
Jesus I hope that’s not my cum face
Yeah around 40 with 10 kgs DBs… I didn’t count though
The fuck is this madness?

There you go, enjoy. Guaranteed mass increase, as these last 6 weeks have proven. I’m happy to deload next week.
I’m gonna walk to digest but honestly I just want to stuff my face right now
I am not smart enough to remember all those drop sets and stuff. But that looks intense. I’m just going to try and replicate the intensity.
