You know if you just kept one log and changed the name, instead of constantly starting new ones, it would be a lot easier to follow you. I sometimes accidentally accrue a little bit of a sense of self-worth when I don’t see how much more awesome shit goes on in here than my own training.

I am pinging my IP across several different router points… I need to keep moving so they can’t find me. I am actually typing this in my mobile command center in the back of a re-fitted 18 wheeler.
HAHAHHAHA
First of all good luck and speedy recovery with your back!
Second I have two questions: What are your goals for the Arnold and what is a “minotaur curl”?

I’m pretty sure it’s basically just like doing a kettlebell curl, except you have to transform into a minotaur first, which imo is the hardest part of the exercise.

Thanks.
Goal for Arnold: Finish with an 830-850 deadlift.
Minotaur Curl: See above picture.
Monster deadlift! After turning into a Minotaur you shouldn’t have much trouble with it though.

Naw. You still got too much talent. Wait till you get my age and start falling apart. Then you can seriously consider the other course.
Relax, dude. You’re young. You have a lot of time left in the sport.

I feel like the hooves will add some more surface area thus increasing my stability. The fire breathing will help my core strength.

Hopefully, when I am your age, I will look as good in my tank top flexing avatar picture.

I’m not worried about anything. I am no where near my potential. Priority has to be given to getting my back figured out though. I am lucky, there are some awesome doctors down here whose first response isn’t “Well, stop lifting.” I am sure I’ll get it straightened out.

I almost quit at 7mins. The pain in my hands and chest was almost suicide inducing. But, then I started thinking about how much I didn’t care about how I felt anymore and somehow found some dark primal self hatred part of myself to power through it.
It was awesome.
Got a ballpark rep count on that?
