I love these. I use gouda, then maybe 2 eggs, a slice or two of ham and what ever shrooms I have on hand.
I have a hard time staying on point.

I confess I am buying ANOTHER Ironmind axle off facebook marketplace, despite having no need for oneâŠ

I confess that I search marketplace and Craigslist near daily for gym finds, and after doing so for several years have still never seen a singles ironmind product, and rarely strongman equipment in general.
I need to move to wherever all these rich strongman are selling the old toys

Only thing I can think of at this time is that youâre gearing up for the most brutal permutation of farmers carries ever devised.

My upper body is more sore than my lower body. I am pissed
Conversation I had with one of my female coworkers today:
Coworker: I want to lose weight, maybe put on muscle too. I wouldnât mind getting toned out. Look at this protein poptart recipe I found on Insta. I can start eating healthy again on Monday.
(I confess I donât know what âtoned outâ means. Also, said protein poptart had way more fat and carbs than protein)
Me: Oh thatâs great, good to focus on protein! I have been bulking lately.
Coworker: Bulking?
Me: Yes, I am trying to put on muscle and therefore weight.
Coworker: You are trying to put on weight? I put on muscle really easily, my arms got too big once.
(I confess I very nearly avoided an eye roll at that comment)
Me: Yep, trying to put on mass. Big arms would be awesome!
Coworker: You want big arms?
I confess I had to end the conversation there.

I get the impression âtoo bigâ was referring to this:
not this:
One of my favorite comments about the whole âfemale coworker trying to lose weightâ stigma is âAnd they somehow plan on losing weight while somehow also squeezing a slice of cake into their everyday dietâ.

I lose my mind whenever I see someone drinking a âprotein shakeâ that is 100g of carbs, 50g of fat and 30g of protein for this very reason.
âWhy isnât that a carb shake?â
âBECAUSE ITâS GOT PROTEIN IN IT!â
But also, my condolences for having to have a fitness conversation with a co-worker. Those are awful.

This made me chuckle.
May it be the last. I have stayed out of all the âafter holidayâ plans that have started floating around the office. Might have to invest in some noise cancelling headphones.
Good ones are worth their weight in gold.

My standard response to people who are âgoing toâ train/diet/whatever is:

I confess that whenever I start cramping I like to try and beat that area into submission lol
Honestly a great idea. My dorm roomâs right next to a basketball court thatâs loud pretty much 24/7, and throwing on a pair makes it much easier do focus on work and stuff.

Full confession: this is very self congratulatory
My advisors approved my final draft of my statements of purpose last night. They said that I have a good shot with admissions. I also submitted my application for two research positions (backups). As I was putting together these applications, Iâve come to realise how prepared I am.
Sure, I need way more maths to do the Econ work I want, but in terms of admissions, Iâve been a research assistant for one of the founders of my field since freshman year, have run 2 independent projects, have 5 professors willing to write strong letters for me (including famous prof, a prof from a school Iâm applying to and a former PhD student of one of the profs I hope to be my advisor) and two non academic, but still relevant, publications. Iâve also had the opportunity to meet my academic heroes and both like me.
I am still skeptical about my chances, but this is the first time since freshman year that I donât feel behind.

Iâm toying with the idea of running Deepwater when I wrap up the mesocycle Iâm currently on.
I confess these thoughts are scaring me a little.

Is anyone else hungrier during a deload?
I confess that I love the fact that many kb swings over the last two days have made my forearms incredibly sore.
