I’ve read this too. If you like it, check out some other books by the co-author Larry Bond like “Cauldron”, “Vortex” or “Red Phoenix”. Very tech-heavy war fiction.
Was going to ask this as well. I really liked Barbarian and am curious if Weapons is going to be just as good.
Of course! The first 2 are some of my favorite comedy movies. I’ve heard some good stuff with the reviews so I’m excited
I have not. I’ll have to put it on my list! I really liked the announcement trailer for weapons that brought you to a fake missing persons report
I’ll have to check these out!
Yeah, Barbarian was really solid. I’ll watch Any movie with Justin Long, even the whack ones. Going in, I didnt know anything about Barbarian and I wasn’t expecting too much. It was nice to be pleasently surprised.
Now i’ve seen previews and have big expectations for Weapons. I hope it lives up!

Pistol squat to box: 7, 6+2
Copenhagen plank: 23s, 20s
Notes:
Not a fan of the pistol squats.
Dan John had a good take on this.
“The people that CAN do pistol squats don’t need to do pistol squats. The people who can’t do them, shouldn’t do them”
He co-opted that from something Pavel said about lunges.
Also, in turn, the prowler/sled are awesome single leg workouts.
Speaking of which, do you know of any less noisy ways to drag a sled or prowler? I’m training in the morning again so I feel bad for dragging the sled but it takes a while to set up the prowler (it has wooden feet)
I’m fully aware of just dragging the sled in the afternoon but sometimes I just want to lift in the morning and be done lol
Best solution I’ve come up with is to take it out somewhere that doesn’t have a lot of people around. There’s a parking lot that’s a 3 minute drive from my house that I hit up for early morning sled sessions.
Do you have a long stretch of flat grass you can drag the sled? Less noise plus easier on the equipment.
@BrandonCrawford Spacing might be an issue but I’ve give it a shot!
Morning:
3 mile walk with dogs
Lots of shoulder health movements. Was debating lifting this morning but still sore from Wednesday. Shoulder extension is what I really struggle with and I found this this morning:

Went to sprint and had a weird pull in my oblique so cut that short
@FlatsFarmer Naked gun was a lot of fun! It felt like a modern naked gun. It’s worth a watch
Fantastic 4 was also very good. I enjoyed it a lot and my GF (who doesn’t like superhero movies) enjoyed it!

Sorry to read this—wishing you both well for the journey ahead.
Very sorry to hear that.
Sending both you and your dad big hugs and lots of prayers!!
that news sucks, hope its OK mate.
@SvenG @Friedrich @QuadQueen @simo74 Thanks y’all. He sees an oncologist next week so we will have more news then
Speaking of skin cancer, since I have vitiligo, I figured I was at an increase risk for skin cancer. I did some googling today and found a few interesting studies:
So, for me, there’s a non to possible negative correlation between skin cancer and vitiligo. Kinda fascinating
RE Lower PT. 1

Banded Vertical jumps: 3x6
Notes:
Way to get it done anyway!
Thanks for thinking of me! I am definitely a big fan of both dumbbell hamstring curls(on the floor or on the bench) and single leg Cable hamstrings curls with an ankle cuff. The latter can be done lying on a bench or if you have a bar to hold your legs down for Pulldowns, you can set that up in the rack to brace your leg against for standing Hamstring curls.
