Have had some great advice, thank you all SO much. will let you know what i can when i can.
meanwhile, here-
Congrats on your accomplishment. I’m sure you felt awesome after that. I think I got a hernia looking at you press that 185 though…
That 185 looked fairly easy for you…
Hope you kill that bitch in court!
Happy Belated Birthday! Sounds like you had an exciting weekend…definitely needed a few days off to relax!
You’ve got some video editing, benching, kid coaching skills! I loved the video.
Jesus C that bench!!
not jelly one bit. (big fat lie)
As for the chain and box vid, it may not be a redtube vid but it still gave me a mental hard on 
That 185 looked great. Congrats on the hard work 
Yeah, fantastic benching. And yeah, I am jelly because I haven’t benched for a while due to the stoopid shoulder. But never mind, it allows my posterior chain to catch up, so to speak.
enjoyed the vid a lot. congrats on your bench
Awesome bench CBear!! You rocked it!
Jesus Bear, that bench is HUGE! Love the vid. Pure awesome.
I tried to write something for today.
It was too much, and not enough.
HELLO BITCHES!!
So I haven’t been around much, and I have a good reason. I’ve been soaking up the last of my break before school starts. Hanging around with the family(s), picking up extra shifts at work, sleeping as much as I can, and getting my apartment (slowly) sorted to some level just below OH MY GOD ARE THERE 12 PEOPLE WHO LIVE HERE OR JUST ONE?!
Oh and I started reading again… boy i missed that.
my parent’s huge garden- the one i dug the grass out of before training @ EFS one morning- is doing better than they expected and im giggling at all the fresh food they’re eating now- because they’re almost cursing it.
took the opportunity the other night to tell dad that he looks like a fat turtle, and after mom’s inquiry i told her that she’s skinnyfat. gave them both a few simple things to do, so we’ll see how that goes. what i told dad (its true) is that I want him around for awhile because I’m not finished learning from him yet, and that I want him to look like the man I know he is- instead of a 65 year old man of means who looks 45 weeks pregnant.
I’ve tried this with them before. I hope it sticks.
also- still in the middle of small town politics whether i like it or not, and it’s just making me wonder at people even more than usual. so what if you’re King of the Mountain when that mountain is just a pile of shit? power trips and egos… ugh.
worked last weekend and workin again this weekend, so i haven’t been with peeps @ efs and i wont be back until the Learn to Train seminar. sadface! overtime pay = happy face, tho!
Ha, I love how you give your parents the blunt Bear treatment.
How’s that court case progessing?
There’s a seminar at EFS?

cal- my parents taught me the blunt Bear treatment. someone recently asked my mother, “has she ALWAYS been like this?” with a sideways glance at me. mom thought for a moment then said “yes, but mostly really after she noticed that she can get away with it because people love her anyway.” HAHAHAHAHAHA!!
court so far: they’re elderly, and claiming a lot of $$ in damages and “medical bills”- or, their insurance company is. we’re just trying to make it stop. nobody on my side wants to drag it out and make this last forever, so we’re doing research and thinking things through to try to make it as short as possible.
greenie- yes ma’am! Learn to Train III. the biggest and best of the biggest and the best, all in one place at one time. Proceeds go to charity, and everyone walks away happy. I can only assume that my job will be to stand around and heckle people and look amazing, but i think i do that pretty well anyway. ha! I’m a peon, but i love being in those situations… to just sit back and listen. funny haha note- kroc is a retail pharmacist, i’m a retail pharmacy technician, we have our lolz.
koub- look at you, on top of things!!
lol. I started following Jim W., which led me to Elite. if I lived at least in OH, my ass would be their training. instead, I must build my own, and will rely on EliteFTS to help me build it.
koub, you’d be surprised at the number of people who want to come train… and the number of people who actually email dave about it… and then the number of people who show up. In the year+ i’ve been there, i’ve seen one person do that, and it was the day before i did my bench video.
people have asked me if they can come train with me… and i tell them the truth- not my gym, gonna hafta email dave. he’ll be cool with it prolly, but its his gym and you hafta email him. and then they’re all, WHOA I DONT WANNA GET CRAZY!
but that’s kinda the point of being there…
All the court stuff sounds stupidly stressful. I hope it’s over as quickly as it happened.

lol. wow… sad sad fucking world. people over by you really don’t know what they are missing out on. out here in the boonies, there really isn’t jack shit. commercial gym I go to is a joke, but it’s my only option right now. hell, i got majority of my strength chucking hay bales, wresting cattle, and changing tractor tires. that shit sucked… that’s why I want every single person to come work on a Ranch for a week during branding season. either will die, or come back a better person.
