i feel like you have this insane, otherworldly work ethic and obtuse (yet admirable) love for training/dieting that is so extreme it makes you not even feel pain when you squat 135 for gorillion reps. I feel like you legit had a smile on your face on the 26th rep.

Ice has melted my friends
Figuratively and literally
spring has sprung and people have warmed
I don’t want to jinx it, but I will say this is the first time I do not feel delusional about the potential for good to be created from shit
Or for shit to be converted back into the good it once was
Maybe I needed to melt too
Maybe I was distant and cold and just as protective of myself because I did not want to feel heartache
He who fears fate, lives like a coward
I like your everything I said
He said
yayayayya the feeling is mutual !!!
The feel is mutual
He likes my everything ?!!?
Even my butt mole
I mean
my birthmark

Today was a battle
Every.fucking.rep
Usually I welcome the torture I inflict upon myself with open arms, but today everything I wanted to do or planned to do was met with “but I don’t wannnnna”, “can we go home”, “that rep was ugly” “I’m tired”
Srsly, STFU.
When it came time for stretches I felt like I was going to fall asleep.
It was like an entire year’s worth of 3am wake ups and daily two hour long manic/psycho workouts hit me all at once.
Like a semi hit me
Or two semi’s
or Just one semi being driven by a terminator
Whatever.
Not a good feeling
Who dare disturb my slumber
It is I…your alarm clock Jenn
Very glad tomorrow is a holiday
I don’t know
I have this mindset like
Some people make progress
and Some people make excuses
So who do I want to be ?
Clearly not the latter

One of the best pulls I’ve seen around here, deficit or otherwise.
Super straight line right through the mid scapula, you get your knees out front where they belong such that you use everything you own in the pull so your set up is prime and you should embrace that and never let it go.
But that head thing you and so many others here do creeps me out. But hey…

WOw thanks so much!! That means a lot coming from you, you’re like a legend 'round these parts.
Head thing, you mean I need to think about keeping my head from moving or something, Lol.
I do think about it sometimes, but sometimes I forget :S
That was nice of you to say, thanks.
The head tilted back thing. Shudder. Tough on the discs. Or could be. I also feel that it can, when weights get heavier, cause a bit of thoracic rounding as the throat pushes to the front.
Keep your spine in a line. That’s a rhyme.
Vids are great. Much good !
It’s probably better to veer away from any kind of extension in the deadlift, as opposed to flexion. We’re basically taught to stay away from the proverbial rounded lower back, and in doing that, some people will get as far from that as possible and arch their back like damn bow or some shit.
That said, your pull looks beautiful, the way you loaded the hamstrings, and drove into it with a neutral spine. It was only at the top where you sort of went robin hood bow archer level 12. But yeah, one of the best pulls i’ve seen on tnation otherwise, nice job.

Thanks SMV!!!
Do you mean at the end its like too locky outty?
You have to talk like a toddler BTW or I get confused LOL!!
I squeeze my ass very much so at the end so maybe that makes my back too archy ??
