adding some much needed class to my little thread.
QT, drop in and let us know whats up from time to time will you?
so, yesterday was a low body deadlift day scheduled, but i was going to let my groin rest a little longer, but i put my best bud stephen through a workout, and got into the mood watching him.
so, i had a pair of gym shorts and flip flops on, and he was doing cleans with 70kg. between his sets of 5, i would do sets of 20 from the hang with the 70kg. ugh, super pump traps and upper arms.
i did 2 sets of 20, then after his next set, i threw 160kg on the bar and did deadlifts with it for 11 reps.
that is no belt, no shoes, no straps, 160kg x 11. easy and fun.
finished with some chins and barbell curls and called it a day.
vids of the half naked deads will be up later today on my t-page. as soon as i solve my mouse problems, i will embed the vids on the thread.
Barry, you are the only one of us aged ones doing the pull over. I know about your shoulder injury but with your baseball background and that kind of pullover strength I bet you could chunk a spear a fur piece.
HT, best thing for the groin is a massage. May not fix it but it’ll take your mind of the problem.
bench is feeling better. since i have no left elbow, and my right elbow is begining to hurt like my left did before i had surgery, i have had to relearn to bench, using a wider grip and more chest and delt involvement.
its been a rebuilding process, but its coming along i think finally. i will never be where i used to be, but if i can get to where i can press 300lbs again for a max and mid 200’s for reps i will be happy.
You will get there with your bench HT. Training hard and chasing it down is fun.

If you guys need bail money call me. I’ll pickup a few of the other guys (Meat, Hel, etc) on the way down.
Checkin’ the front page of the local newspaper everyday to make sure Barry and the crew are bein’ good in Texas!
Everything here is as good as can be expected…still haven’t found a full-time job yet but have a solid lead on subbing in a local high school. Money is gonna be tight, real tight, until a full-time job is landed.
I have been active at work but not many workouts in the garage over the last several weeks…hope all is well with the gang!

Sweat and spent we took Barry to the bus station.I am blown away by the fact, Barry and I met on this sit 4 years ago and now we get to train together from time to time!!! Small world huh. A great week to all and TRAIN HARD! Jimmy T
Today was an awesome time with a great friend thanks to this site and thread. But honestly the day before sucked. my rack pulls were pathetic. What I did the previous days doesn’t matter. Could barely move 605, I’ve done that for reps. Embarassed, pissed , and mainly humbled. Thanks to the folks here at HT’s thread. Jimmy T is a saint and 1 strong mofo and my friend. he trains smart and I don’t. What we do is make memories and that’s fucking priceless. Enough said, God bless. Out, The Missouri Mule.
i so envy you guys who get together and train and eat together, good times. i need some of those, especially now, i am in such a confused and emotional mess it is not even funny. damn, why do we complicate our lives so much?
arggh!
anyhoo, your welcome as far as my little thread helping you get together with like minded individuals. i am humbled. thanks to everyone who contributes, hel, qt, barry, jimmy, eco, daddyzombie, da-albino… everyone…
