Thanks Spar, and you’re right…someday I will break 500 [/quote]

Hahaha, hilarious!

Nothing to report from last night, other than I did TABATA JUMPROPE! Fuck, for a guy who hasn’t really jumped rope in years, that was very hard. One thing I will get out of its continued use, is that my calves will build up a little endurance, and I’ll start using the rope more. I’ve read that calf endurance is an often overlooked importance when it comes to the Tough Mudder. We’ll see what I can do about that. Also, I need to run more, I just hate it. LOL

Edgy, there’s a Nike shirt that says that on the front. I need one.

Todays session, brought to you by the makers of horse shit. You know those days that suck so much, that you wish you took the day off? That was today’s deadlift session.

Did the above twice, and was done. Looking forward to the next deadlift day, so I can forget this one. 405x1+ next week

Edit: That thumbnail right there, can’t be beaten! DERPLIFTS FTW!!!

Lol derplifts!

Jelly of your SSB. Looks like a respectable home gym you got there.

Thanks Major, I don’t have much but it’s been enough to get by for now. I love having the SSB, because it’s so damn brutal. I really need to pick up a couple or regular bars though, one’s tweaked and one is completely fucked but I keep deadlifting on it because it hasn’t broken into pieces yet. Soon though, it’ll snap, lol.

Yeah, I might go with Elite bars, I just need a good power bar and maybe, a deadlift bar if I can round up some extra cash. Just one solid straight bar would suffice, and I could pull with the powerbar no problem, I’m just being greedy haha.

LOL’d at the thumbnail of your DL vid.

You could also check out places like Rogue Fitness and Jesup gym for buying a bar. I got all but one of my bars through EFS, but there are other options out there for good quality barbells.

Moar toys! Don’t you have a prowler too? #homegymwinning

I haven’t popped in this log for quite some time, it’s good to see you’re still putting in good work.

Nova, I’ve heard of Jesup before (and Rogue) so I’ll def check em out when I’m ready to buy.

Major, yes I do, and once it cools the fuck off here, I’ll break it out again.

AC, thanks man, I need to check your out and make sure you’re not outpulling me…highly possible though

Nice squattin man! Btw, check out rogue’s bars…heard theyre pretty good too.
