thanks arachne! no bad ass here…but i’m having a real head trip because of last week’s only 2 wrkouts and spotty eating due to flying cross country. although i didn’t eat total shit for 2+ weeks consistently, there was wine here and there and some big meals with high cals/fat.
that part isn’t as scary as not being able to workout out for a few MORE days. it would only be some pussy cardio today i reckon… ;)[/quote]
The head game is the worst part about missing workouts or diet. It always throws me for a loop, even if I didn’t do much damage at all. Hope you feel better so you can get back in the gym.
so no go on even cardio today. being even the slightest bit ill pisses me off sooooo bad. the weather is gorgeous and at a minimum, i could be doing yard work. i think tomorrow i should be feeling decent enough for something. i’m not too bad, but kinda achy. no, this isn’t the 'whiner’s blog" so i’ll shut up for now.
here’s the only half decent pic of my costume the other night…'cept the little spider on the veil is right under my eye, and the eyelash was starting to go crooked.
Hey, glad you made it back safe…
Now get back to work! 
stop bitching, take a hot shower, and stretch. then sleep.
and LIMEWATER!
nice costume!
how ya feelin?? hopefully no more daggers in ur throat.
thanks deja-no daggers but not 100%.
here’s yesterdays workout…nothing too exciting. lifts were a bit challenging due to previously mentioned circumstances…
warmup-felt great to sweat again…10min ellipticl, BW dips on bench, pushups, some stretching
supersets (no rest between A & B)
1A) Incline (30 degrees) Dumbbell Press 12 x35lb, 10 x35, 8 x35
1B) Pull-downs using Tbar, parallel grip 15 x90, 12 x90, 10 x90
2A) Bent over One-arm DB Rows 15 x45, 12 x45, 10 x45
2B) Flat DB Flyes 10 x35, 12x 30, 12 x30
- Dumbbell Pullovers 12 x45, 10 x45, 10 x45
said no the ab crap assigned for that wrkout. did 10 min HIIT on stair-master followed by 20 min cross-trainer…
today is supposed to be legs…hmmmm. gettin in the rack might get me out of this horribly pissy mood about how i think i’m looking after the last few weeks of alcohol, travel and aunt flo (i’m definitely carrying some serious water or at least 2 lbs of new fat, sorry for my FA moment)
yer still doing that upper body program, right?
I’m certain if you can do reps at 35, you shoulda gone for the 40s for 8!!
“ab crap”. I wholeheartedly agree with that sentiment.
yes, mom, flawless upper body program. someone had the 40’s…i just hit that PR last time i did that routine. i figure i’m going for as heavy as possible with the high reps and little rest. some days i think i will switch it up, yesterday i needed some aerobic challenge.
kimba-i wasn’t going to go for the burn when my girl parts were already on fire from cramps…fuck that. and i hate direct ab shit. i try to get ‘core’ training in. but i will admit, i have pretty much followed the 2 days of minimal ab work to say that i’ve stuck to the program, except for the leg day…i own that!
freakin site is wonky today…although i think i like the new hub page…
nothing shocking in this article for us around these parts, but an interesting read nonetheless
Berardi protein article:
hit them legs this afternoon…fellow was in the rack killin’ it, IMO…405 going waay deep…impressed i guess cause hardly any guys squat at my gym
so-decided to do some very thorough warm up after my warm-up while waiting for him…more bulgarian split squats, single DL, this other thing i do, all with one 22.5 DB
good mornings, feet on plate 3 x60 lb BB
squats
12 x bar; 10 x95; 10 x 115, 10 x135, 8 x135; 10 x 115, 12 x95
squatting guy watched my form, said i had great form. also said i was in great shape,thought i was maybe a cyclist (my legs and ass look much better than my upper) and then dropped the “you don’t want to get all big, do you?” and to watch out for “monkey butt.” his wife apparently tells him he has a monkey but (short fellow, slightly stocky, obviously built legs/ass with that kind of squatting)
monkey butt…thas funny stuff
short on time, so i finished off my push-downs on the assisted machine, 3 x85 each leg
did one more superset of the unilateral stuff + single leg glute bridge from floor
some hypers…also did 5 with 25 lb plate…quite a difference with weight. cold is still nagging me but hasn’t got me down.
Cbear-what magical powers does lime water have over microorganism and virus invasion?
That is some good squat action, and if gym dude knows his stuff, then you are doing awesome! I’d still like a video, though. For entertainment.
I think lime water reduces inflammation. It probably does other good stuff too.
i won’t wait for Cbear to send sum balls…i’ll get to, maybe next week or week after. i would very much like to see for myself. i can only watch so much in the mirror while trying to lift.
hi wallace…
did some cardio today and cooked.
making homemade cream of asparagus soup. had it last night at the aunt’s and had to replicate it…MMMMMMMM! not made of cream; includes asparagus, broccoli, yukon potato, jalapeno, onion,leeks, garlic and a little bacon. still in the process, have to blend all the stuffs together now…
made Brussels sprout au gratin. sprouts, leeks, some bacon, gruyere cheese, topped with panko crumbs and chopped walnuts.
i rarely make comfort food. but i did…and it’s freakin’ dee-lish.
i LOVE gruyere!
ok, that being said, limewater does reduce inflammation. it also helps raise your body’s pH. Viruses can only penetrate (to replicate) your cells if their environment is slightly acidic, therefore weakening your cell membranes. in a neutral or slightly alkaline environment, the viruses starve and die. but, you still get the antibodies.
worked in a pharmacy for about 8 years… been sick twice. maybe, MAYBE, a third time i dont remember.
the extra vitamin C doesnt hurt, either.
lemons work as well, but limes are stronger and taste better imo.
i would love it if you had a monkey butt.
the soup is fuckin awesome…a tad hot from the whole jalapeno. and the sprouts…jez f’n cris they are good…
thanks for the info Cbear. i’m a microbiologist and joke that i eat “bugs”…hadn’t heard anything like that before.
i do have a monkey butt. you still gonna send the cahones?
mah belly is full…

listen you pansy ass piece of shit. if you think for one second that you’re too scared, or not strong enough, or any other reason your tiny little brain can come up with, DUMP THE FUCKING ESTROGEN and pick up a god damned video camera.
ALL of us started small. how did any of us make progress? we had someone helping us, either online or in person. do you think you’re smart enough to get this done on your own? really? then bag the journal and the entire tnation site, bc you’re so superior.
or you can just keep talking shit about how hard you work and how dedicated you are, and we’ll all start taking bets about how soon you’re gonna fail and bail on us. go back to FA, i’ll even pack your ricecakes and walden farms syrup for you. im sure they’ll keep a treadmill and a magazine with your name on it.
