With our family, it’s a good reason to get together and share a meal and some laughs. A time to give thanks for the previous year and all that one has.
Although, my dinner number two was pretty late, after several ours of alcoholic beverages, and I “gave thanks” to my mother-in-law for the “amazing sex I’ve been having with your daughter”. Luckily, my mother-in-law and I get along splendidly and she thought that was hilarious.
Wow… Just wow.
hahaha would have loved to watch that conversation 
Well, I’ve been slacking on logging my workouts.
I have two workouts I need to log tonight. I’ve forgotten my notepad in my truck twice now and have been too lazy to go get it to record on here.
Woke yesterday at 220.8lbs, so most of the holiday feast has passed through the system.
Things have been crazy busy lately, not a bad busy, just not a lot of free time. We have every weekend booked until the first week of December (and then the rest of December weekends are booked).
A lot are fun things though, like this weekend we are going to a local annual “Pumpkin Festival” where they have vendors, hay wagon rides, a pie social, homemade honey/jam/etc, pie eating competition, etc. Then we are going to watch dirt track racing on Saturday night. Sunday morning off to prepare our tree stands for deer hunting which opens on Nov 5, and then getting what probably will be my last round of golf in for the year on Sunday afternoon (it’s going to be pretty chilly!). Anyways, just figured I should pop in here with an update!
Plus, I’m working on updating my resume and putting a cover letter together for a more senior position at my current place of work. Hopefully this pans out, as it is in my field of interest and would be a very nice pay bump!
Hope the new job is yours!
Live selfie of me reading that…
LOL my inlaws are so conservative its a complete dont ask dont tell around here.
My wife’s grandfather used to get upset with the girls in the family for wearing shorts and showing their legs. My mother-in-law isn’t nearly as conservative but I wouldn’t dare mention our sex life to her.
Thanks Hog, just submitted the application today!
Yeah, mine aren’t thankfully! lol
Haha, most Dad’s I know are like that lol My wife’s grandfather saw a picture of my wife in her wedding gown (before the wedding) and his comment was “You’re not leaving much mystery for the wedding night I see!” (it was an open back dress) lol
My Dad would often ask my sister “where is the rest of your outfit?” before she went out with friends. I intend to do the same if I have a daughter!
Well, I suppose it is time to actually log a workout in here, eh?

Yikes, that was 4 rest days in a row…not good. Tonight’s workout is going to be awful. I’m going to rip through my squat, bench and deadlift work tonight. I’ll try and remember to record some videos, because I have a feeling this is going to be difficult…but good practice to deadlift while fatigued, right?
Tonight’s menu:
Squat: 5x3@435lbs
Bench: 5x3@295lbs
Deadlift: 5x3@525lbs
I have a daughter, she’s pretty, and I have no idea what I’m going to do about boys. I’m just going to teach her about God and talk to her all the time so no topic is off limits. Hopefully she’ll fear God enough to put off the sex stuff and she’ll talk to me about whatever she has going on. The rest is out of my hands.
I also intend to be big (either actually big or just ripped), tattooed, and armed.
I really think you’d scare them off. 1. For being police 2.Tall 3. Tattoed 4 swole af
This ought to do it!

Workout finished in ~1hr40mins which is a long ass workout for me. A lot of time just loading/unloading the bar and dong really short sets. It wasn’t a super hard workout to perform, but I’m sure it was taxing giving the poundage.
It is pretty bad that I just did the main work of what should have been 3 separate workouts and I’m still behind on my program.
I need more rest between squat sets.
I’ll take post number 3000
I just need more rest😊
That was a brutal session Sleepy
I wish I had bad workouts like that !!
I figured this would be the norm for most. It seems that my triceps tire out pretty quickly. I can usually muster up the energy to grind another squat, but when it comes to bench, when I’m done, I’m done.
Wow, 3000. Not bad.
Haha, don’t we all?
Thanks! Squats are feeling great still, which I’m very happy about.
Lol, I was using “awful” to represent “torturous”, it turned out to be a good workout! Entire posterior chain is feeling it today though (in a good way).
Video of the final set of each lift:
That a lot of damn volume lol
I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought so lol but it is hard to complain about volume when you are only doing sets of 3…
Your lifts are so cool to watch Sleepy. You make it look so easy.
