I have been called Dave many times in my life, does that count?

Do you look like a Dave?

I…don’t know how to verify that one way or the other.
If you looked like a Dave you would know.

So if you are a Dave, @dagill2 and @flappinit are both Daves, then I will just have to visualize a sort of Frankenstein monster made up of all your best parts. Or more entertaining, your worst parts.

I am only a half Dave. My dad is a Dave and my brother in law is a Dave.
Which half?
I think the top half, I look a lot like my dad but my legs and ass are from somewhere else😉

Haven’t been logging my workouts or timing them - wife has been going through some stuff and waiting on some scary test results, and as such working out and dieting has been pushed aside for a few days, she’s big on movies and comfort food and just wants me around as much as possible. Did workouts 8, 9, and 10, so I’m halfway there, but it’s been with my axle-thick home kettlebell and I know my times were high 20s, so no PR I missed. Still feeling good but am only down about 5 pounds so far, going to kick things back into gear tomorrow and try to salvage some of this.
Today I just worked on shoulders, tris, and abs. Still pushing the shoulder press for 5x5’s, this time at 160.

Oh no! I’m sorry to hear. My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer a week and a half ago and it’s definitely been stressful dealing with that. I can’t imagine what it’s like as a husband
Great work still getting workouts in. My dad always found excuses not to workout/ stay active even when conditions were perfect

Echoing everyone else here, but definitely hoping you get good news my wife’s been ill recently and it’s stressful, hard times, you have my sympathy!

I like to absolutely destroy myself when I’m stressed, so it’s kind of the opposite of finding an excuse not to workout - it’s that when my wife is stressed the best thing I can do is pour energy into occupying the boys and spending time with her and that means I have to back off of my own stuff to make that happen.
