Big Barry texted me and said the crew was wondering where I was.Had to look over the part two HT!Just what I thought,all the usual suspects are here!!!Started work on June 5th. with a commercial paint company.I have had 4 days off!!!Like Barry said we text almost every day.
I have been training at 5am on M-W-F for about an hour.Mon.-chest and shoulders-Tues.-Back,bis and tris-Fri.- legs and some bar work on my chest,weighted dips-various grips on my bench. The crew took the summer off and 63galaxie is still in rehab for the torn roter cuff.Mikey went to Oklahoma to a wrestling camp and has been training a little.The other guys are working hard.We are gonna pick it up in the fall. It has been very hot down here but the old school is still banging away at it!!! I do not stop training for anything, I make the necessary adjustments and move forward. Sure is good to see everyone hard at it!Gonna catch up with everyones training and will start posting. You all have a great day tomorrow and my best to all! Jimmy T

QFT, please dont be a stranger to this thread Jimmy!
JT, glad to hear from you. Looking forward to reading your posts again soon.
Another episode of Barry’s stupid gym tricks. First about a month ago tweaked left shoulder because I didn’t ask for a liftoff on the bench. They make benchs for you height challenged fellows and I can’t communicate to ask for a lift off. Yesterday another brain fart. Wanting a 295 for 3. I know I’m a pussss. I pay no attention to where I’m gripping the bar and the kid doesn’t say anything to where the old bastard who’s gripping the bar because he thinks I know what the fuck I’m doing. I struggle with the 3 reps especially on my left side. Something to be said for core work, I didn’t hurt myself. My grip was almost all the way to the right. Can you say, “MORON”? I checked to see if I had more weight on one side and the youngster said my grip was a little one sided. oppppps

Every night foam rolling for about 30 minutes, HURTS. 4 weeks until a visit with Jimmy T and family. Yippeeeee.
Barry, could you bench inside a rack and set the pins so a tall guy like you doesn’t kill his shoulders without a lift off? The benchs seem to be made for guys my height not 6’3’'.

I thought that was your head. Awesome vids bro. Keep 'em coming.
Wanted to squat yesterday but my knees were a nogo. My marathon workouts are hurting. Until this week my only gym option was to pay 7$ per workout so I would stay around 2 hours and my knees have paid the price. Sorry for the whine and no cheese but I’m old.

Back is trashed, goal is met. Maybe if I lose weight knees would be better. MAYBE not too. A great weekend to all. I may have sent Golden Corral Buffet back into Chapter 11 today, sorry if that affected anyone’s family.
