Always nice to hear from you, HT. Getting older isn’t easier. I’m about 30 days from training full time again. Injuries seem to be part of this shit. I don’t post my bs workouts. they bore me so why put anyone else through it. The best to the crew. I will attempt to again reach animal status. I feel stupid buying some gear at near 54. A great weekend to all. Go to a gym near you and fuck with some folks 20 years younger than you. Works fer mee.

Barry, I think you’re still the only one of us “mature” lifters doing the pullovers. Those damn curls are just plain crazy. Glad you got a good workout in.
Michael,
Great DL vid…I like the intensity on your face! Your “philosophy” makes quite a bit of sense to me! You “keep on truckin!”
Barry - no drugs necessary…just hard consistent training! Good to hear from you again
hel - like the new pic in kilt! Hope all is well

First time I really felt I was pushing the bar away from the bench. Nothing like a 54 yo virgin. as everyone else is, still dealing with nagging bs injuries.
GO OUT AND MAKE SOME NOISE!
HT
thanks for that,insight I appreciate it.
perspective is a great thing
Still I love that you keep training hard and again the form is impeccable.
nice work.
Barry looking strong as hell.
nice presseing, and those curls are indeed crazy.

thanks for posting in my log again Barry! very welcome.
its true, you have scary curl strength.
wont bore the crew with my drama, but big time life changes last 72 hours. have not ate or slept much, so i approached today’s workout with little to no expectations, but to my surprise, i hit a recent pr. amazing what anger, regret and frustration will do for the body…hmmm?

Thanks guys. Better post a curl vid, don’t want the Tmuscle police to think I’m faking it. HT sorry for the turmoil, call if you have the chance. Tomorrow I’ll see if I can make it 3-in-a-row. A safe 4th to the crew. CNS kind of wacked from the lockout holds.

I don’t think anybody in this forum believes you ever fake anything, monster man.
Taking a youngster to the black iron gym Friday. Should be a hoot. He’s going to be a freshman linebacker at Southeast Missouri State. I hope the crew had a great holiday weekend. I’ll be so happy to get back to a normal training week.
On the positive side some of the bs injuries have somewhat healed but due to the staph infection some others have came into play. Hope to hit it tomorrow.
HT, sorry I missed your call. I’ll buzz you later today.
thanks barry, i work tonight 6p-6a pacific time.

i am as strong on the Squat and deadlift as i have been in a LONG time. thank you 5/3/1 AND MISTER WENDLER.
Today with the youngster fell apart. But I am very blessed this week with only one workout. Why, you asked I’ll tell you. I spoke with HT and QT on the phone and as usual Jimmy T and I texted each other. The only thing that could top this is working out with them followed by a buffet. A fabulous weekend to all.
The Missouri Mule
Mike,
Awesome DL vid!!! While I couldn’t see all of you, I think you had more reps in you the way the bar was coming off the floor!
Barry,
Always a pleasure talking to you…seems like things are going your way again. Go get 'em!
I’m gonna kinda take hel’s advice and lay low for awhile. I will be working out, just not posting as I feel i won’t be doing much of anything worthwhile except to try and cut some bodyfat. If and when things change, I will be back here posting in a heartbeat! The best to all my T-Nation brothers & sisters in Iron!
thanks for posting on my thread art, i felt i had 1-2 more reps in me, but as the 5/3/1 protocol recommends, leave a rep or two in the tank, dont go to all out failure.
