Kevin, way to fight through feeling sick. I read a book by Gitchin Funakoshi who said he would do Kata for hours when sick to get better. Maybe there is something to this.
Kev, glad to see youāre still alive. Have a great Thanksgiving.
kevin, the 90/90 sucks, but it made my hips and glutes feel better. Have a great thanksgiving!
thanks for the well wishes again peopleā¦
Mj the 90/90 is a bitch but it works- we sit so much, work, driving , etc, its easy for the hips to
tighten up and disable the glutes.
I got 3 lbs of Turkey breast chop type things ( just me and the wife) in a brine of water salt, sugar
molasses, fennel, shallots lemons, peppercorns and a little vinegar.
training
11.25.09
mobility, lytp dislocates, pushups** scap crap more ytlw dislocates, again, hips stuff
face pulls a few sets
A BB bench
bar x20, 65x5 95x5 115x5,135x5
work 150x5,170x5,195x5
B1 db floor press
60ās 5x10

C1 rolling tri db ext 50 3x10
C2 fat bar kerls ** 65? 3x10
D db power cleans one long ass set.
20 minute swim
Notes.
Pushups felt hard today.
that was a bad start, and thus the larger number of warm up sets.
bench - meh.
the rest ok, the tris and bi stuff felt good, the kerls I used some body bar thing I think it weighs 25
Its a fat bar of sorts, really helps the elbows.
Maybe I need to move the money exercise to later on?
I cry every week when I bench. the smart thing to do would be to move when I bench/pull/squat
I should probably squat early in the week, bench, then pull/oh press last
Need to go back and reread what I was doing a few months ago when I did more volume 4 days a week
and benched more.
or go back to not really benching. yeah!!!
every one have a great holiday.
Nice work Kevin. That turkey sounds good.

kmc, there are WAY worse jobs than spending 18 hours looking at Shakira. 
On the training, way to battle back from being sick! Sucks to be sick, man.
Mmmmm, Shakira. Looks like a sweet gig. Happy T-Day, Kevin.
Good lifting being sick man, enjoy your Thanksgiving and the best to you and yours.
Thanks peopleā¦ Hope every one had a good holiday.
so today so far is good, spicy Vietnamese food, squats and right after this running of to my 20th HS reunion.
training
11.27.09 month two waveform what have you week two
mobility- not enough
OH squat 95x10,135x10
A squat 135x5,185x5,work 225x5,260x5,290x11
B Front squat 185 4x8
C1 N GHR (lat machine) 3x10
C2 BSS db 50ās 3x6
Notes
did not get warm enoughā¦left hip/quad stiff and crappy felt it all work out,rushed this whole thing.
squats felt stiff, prob should have done another set or two of 185 x5 or just two sets of 95x20 for HA squat instead.
front squat after the high rep set where hard as hell.
ghr and bss fun in the ugliest way.
should have reversed the order of these two.
I want to do good mornings- on squat days, and like 5 other things but cant fit them in.
thats it, off to go catch up with kids from Brooklyn from 20 years ago
Ill see you bastids on monday.
have a great weekend.
Wait a minute. You made fun of me complaining about my 10 hour days, walking up and down stairs, in the crappy weather, carrying a mail sack. You said something like āthatās nothing! I do 12,18,25 hour days, 8 days a weekā. (I paraphrase, of course). Now I find out this greuling work involves ogling Shakira all day. I hate you. I hate you, a lot. And Iām so jealous. Iāve invented new fantasies for her.
Ok, forgiving you, for just a minute, thatās pretty cool to be able to point to something like that and say," yeah, I helped make that happen." Hope you had a good Thanksgiving. Ok, back to hating you.
have fun at the 20 yr reunion! and 290x11 rocks!
Hope the reunion is a good time. Your turkey sounded delicious.
thanks people!!!
Survived the reunion- we knew we got old when the music was too loud.
I think the late night and squats have left me feeble
The turkey was good- brining rocks.
Hel you are right, I did make fun of your work, while I am doing 18 hour days looking at Shakiraās arse.
Its true I do enjoy the aspect of building or taking part in something every day.
Nice log fucker. Keep it up.
good training. I think I need to get Vietnamese food soon.
Thanks peopleā¦
Irish, thanks for the visit,woo son.
Vietnamese food is great Fuel.
schedule has been shite
12.2.09 day one week three.
I am no longer benching .
there.
some mobility- not enough
A cleans bar tons, 65x10,95x5,135x3,185 3x2
B OH press bar x 487, 65 2x10 , 95x3,110x3 125x8 WTF
C Deadlift 135x10,225x5,275x3,300x3,340x11 might have been 12.
D kroc row 90x25,90x20 done.
E1 hanging leg raise 3x10
e2 pull down abs 3x10
Notes, did some cleans to get it moving
surprisingly they felt ok
OH press - needs work- lame
pulls- did these as paused singles, lost count at ten I almost think I did 13.
these got me huffing like a train- and made me feel like ass.
kroc rows, left arm did better then the right strange.
I think I dont like 531- the money sets take too much out of me- I do much the next day, and feel better when I do more days per week
hmmmm.

Dude - try what Iām doing or something like it. You train more often, doesnāt beat you up and you get stronger. Workouts are fairly short, too. 'nuff room to work weaknesses but you can still work the next day.
My fellow non-benching brother(it hurts to much). Great pulling. Donāt you weight around 180? That means you could pull twice your weight for 10 reps if you tried. Crazy.
Benching full range, raw, beats the shit out of me, if I go for it max with any frequency whatsoever. That being said, you can build a great bench with out hardly ever benchinā
