I confess that, when overhead pressing, I make a noise that I do not understand or desire. I am not generally a grunter when I lift, I don’t often make much noise in the weight room, but something about trying to hold my brace while pressing overhead just makes the most ridiculous grunt/yell/cry come out of my chest.
I also confess that after hitting a PR today, my wife ran into the garage to ask I was okay, saying it sounded like I hurt myself.
I think my number one perk would be just the way I look after lifting. My wife normally has some brutal comment about me looking like a steaming pile of garbage, which in fairness once I get to a mirror, I definitely agree with.
Lifting at home means the only person that is forced to look at me is the woman who decided to spend the rest of her life with me.
For some reason, I would ONLY use the rolling thunder when I was wearing jeans. I have no idea why.
I did get to do my morning workout shirtless today, which is a nice way to save on laundry. And I have just come straight from work, stripped down to the undies and knocked out a conditioning workout before walking in the door before…
Plus, training in an unheated garage when it’s -60 outside gives you a good incentive to not be slow on those rest periods!
I ordered myself a glass dip pen. I have only got to test it breifly but I can already tell I need to hurry up and get my house cleaning/laundry done because I am.going to be useless the rest of the day.
That is an interesting looking object. I like glass, but kinda fell out of the loop with it. Some of the glaziers that would come into the shop were amazingly talented.
You’ll have to put something you fo with that up in the stuff you’ve made thread.
Not sure how that is possible, I’d love to hear some. deas haha.
A confession I have is that I feel like I’m getting older, but I still like doing fun stuff. I went out on a boat yesterday afternoon and did some tubing. We did two runs of about 5 mins a piece, with 3 guys on the tube. All there was to hold on to were little handles, and the first run I only had one handle.
Add this onto deepwater back day Friday and pull day yesterday, and I feel like my back has been beaten with a baseball bat.
I guess my confession is that I may chalk up boat tubing as active recovery for this week.
