Not that I know of. Our big river is often deemed unsafe for water sports during the summer festival. Not sure if I want to eat anything that comes out of that.
If I want fish then I can go fish some local spots that are stocked with trout. But again, time and money.
Fair enough. I guess I forget how lucky I am living 900m from the coast and being able to walk into town and buy fresh fish off the peer. Your beef sounds pretty darn good though.
Haha, ditto.
Funny how those things always end up at some shithole
Love this post. A fitting comeback to all that vegan holiness I see around me.
Not a training day but I needed to move around. My resting HR has crept up and it’s due to me skipping cardio.
ELLIPTICAL
20 min interval - could’ve worked harder but I’m still figuring out my elliptical
PT STUFF
HANG POWER CLEAN
155 x 5 x 5
Wanted to do my clean pulls from yesterday but my lower back is sore and I didn’t want to stress it too much. By set five I was getting enough power on the pull that I didn’t have to dip to catch it. Good work for getting max extension on the pull.
TREADMILL WALK
16+ minutes while watching my church’s online post from yesterday. It’s good to be distracted.
I’m bored. I turn on the TV and don’t even want to watch it. I want to get out of the house but there’s not really anywhere to go. The parks are closed but there’s one nearby that’s not public but not used. The hospital bought it for the land but it’s just sitting there. Might have to risk a run in with their security.
Training Note
I looked back at my numbers for the first time I ran SGSS because that led to my 545 deadlift. In week 4, I did 315 for 5s. I increased the weight 20 lbs each week instead of 10. I just finished week 4 with 315 so I’m right where I need to be. 335 will be the working weight for next week and should feel fine since I tried using that weight for sets of 8 in week one.
If only I could train with a barbell in my house lol
Shoulders have made a solid improvement! I think what you’re doing is clearly working.
Too much to catch up on in here man. To me, your before and after both look like lifetime goals so I figure you’re winning either way.
insert appropriate level of homo here
Richard’s got you covered.
I actually don’t know who that is. Am I too old or too young? I doubt I’m too cool.
There was this stupid cartoon years ago called Johnny Bravo. Richard Simmons was Johnny’s childhood bully. Every time I see Richard Simmons I think of that show.
Richard Simmons is just a really, really, really, really gay fitness instructor. He makes Elton John look like a lumberjack. He’s long been in the running for gayest man ever. He’s also, by all accounts, a very kind and always positive person. Long story short, if you were wondering how gay things got, take a ride on that airplane he’s dancing in.
You are just not American mate. That one was lost in me too. Looks like their version on Mr Motivator 
Pretty sure that’s simply another style of gay men. Bears?
I think this is the closest comparison.
When it comes to lumberjacks there’s no others than Monty Python to describe them

Workout took 70 minutes plus the warm up. It seemed slow but transitions take longer when everything is done in the same spot. I’ll chalk this one up as average. I’m undecided on whether I’ll use the work gym during the week or come home. If I use the work gym and change at the station then maybe I can minimize what I bring home with me.
That’s a blast from the past. Thanks for making me feel old again mort
