More Trouble Than I Am Worth: Chaos Is The Plan (T3hPwnisher Log)

@simo74 Hah! I love it. There were some classics there. “Action Figure Fodder”. Had to get them all!


AM WORKOUT (0345 natural wake up) FASTED

OFF CAMERA

15 round EMOM of

  • 20 squats
  • 20 push ups
  • 10 KB swings w/24kg bell

BREAKFAST: 3 egg whites mixed with 2 scoops of Metabolic Drive, 2 small pieces of beef liver

2 mile leisurely walk

Notes:

  • Holy cow I am exhausted! This is what happens when you leave me to my own devices. This hit all the highlights and has absolutely set me up for a weekend Rampage.

  • Went with a small jump on the mat pulls. I’m in no rush these days to push it: just wanna get in the effort.

  • Decided to make the internet happy and go with a really full ROM on the Zeno squats. Felt better on the knee compared to my normal stopping point, and helped remove expectations coming into it post mat pulls. 10x315 wasn’t pushing to my max, but it was beyond the point of comfort, and then taking that set of 155 to it’s logical conclusion helped.

  • Otherwise, just some greatest hits sorta stuff. I genuinely didn’t think I’d make it through those squats, push ups and swings today when it was all done, and I’m still feeling a little “hungover”.

  • Kiddo picked Pizza Ranch for the weekend Rampage. I am unreasonably excited. Fried chicken and pizza: here I come!

You always look show ready. Doesn’t even matter if you’re coming off of Super Squats. That physique will always be maintained.

Thanks for that man! Something to be said about “bodyfat set point” That said, I’m just stupidly lean at this point. Carnivore really is just suiting me.

This is wild!

It is a shame that kids these days have so many other distractions and will never know the true joy of a good Action Figure.

@whiplash1 That sums it up for sure!

@simo74 There’s still a few out there! But nowhere near the volume we had.


Dinner tonight was amazing

Haha dude, you look like you could fall of a building and be “action star” okay. Physique screams plot armor.

Coincidentally, today my wife saw me as I was changing shirts and said, unprompted, “Dude, you look like an action figure.” She’s wrong, but I’ll take it!
Keep up the great work, Pwn.

Looking crazy man! On a side note - do you have a link to your ROM progression for DLs? have looked around but cant seem to find it

@vlifter83 Hey thanks so much dude! If you google “mythical strength ROM progression”, you will find the layout.

@mr.v3lv3t Holy cow, that might be my favorite compliment! I totally get that as a comic nerd, haha.

@hillbillyk Man, take those Ws where you get them: what an awesome thing for her to say


Alright, some context. Today was a typical insane weekend.

Got up at 0730, feet hit the floor, 300 squats and push ups. This time, I tried a Juarez valley approach, 50-10-40-20-30, then again. I went 50 squats-10 push ups-10 squats-50 push ups-40 squats-20 push ups-20 squats, etc. You see the pattern. Got it done in 7.5 minutes, so slightly faster than my normal approach.

Had breakfast

2 whole pasture raised eggs, 1 egg white, with some chicken bacon and piedmontese grassfed stir fry beef mixed in with grassfed butter and grassfed swiss, eventually topped with grassfed sour cream, alongside 4 paleo chicken sausage links, more grassfed sir fry, and a chicken breast patty. Carnivore king.

Walked the dog 2 miles. No weight vest. I am beat to Hell and today was a more or less weightless day. Used it as an opportunity to go sans shirt to get in some vitamin D.

Life happened. Bought a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles t-shirt. That made me happy. Had my Rampage at Pizza Ranch

That was round 1. There were several more. Highlight was 3 slices of stuffed crust taco pizza. I made a special request to have it added to the buffet line, and they did just that. LOTS of chicken too.

HOWEVER, typically I have a Metabolic Drive shake before these meals, to make sure I get in my protein. I forgot to pack it. I walked to a local GNC and bought a ready made shake with some pea protein in it, and that turned out to be a mistake, because I felt myself start to swell early in the meal and, at the end, was uncomfortably gassy and bloated. Couldn’t get my wedding ring off. Felt miserable for quite a while. Never again, but proof of just how high quality Metabolic Drive is compared to some other stuff.

Did a Costco run. Bought lots of stuff. But this was the highlight.

@boilerman and @flappinit FINALLY got myself some beef back ribs. Gonna make some for lunch tomorrow, and more through out the week ideally. Great time to break out my Ninja outdoor grill.

After Costco, came home and mowed the lawn. Once again, no weight vest: went shirtless, got some sun, total distance of 3 miles. Before I mowed, I did 150 KB swings w/24kg, to meet my daily quota, and in between the front and the back lawn I did 50 burpee chins in 4:10, which I’m fairly certain is a lifetime PR. Hitting it post bloated cheat meal/lawn mowing/cold/etc just speaks to the ridiculous shape I’m in.

While at Target, I saw something that made me think of you @simo74

They’re on clearance…I may go back and get them. I REALLY like Pig-head…

Had dinner at Runza. It’s a Nebraska thing. Was still stuffed from my Rampage, so asked if they would just sell me 2 chicken breasts. Back to being a carnivore. They delivered. So clutch of them.

Wife travels out tomorrow, so life gets even crazier. I am sore as absolute Hell from my Dealer’s Choice workout. I shouldn’t be left to my own devices.

Nice score dude! Let me know what you think of them- I’ve only ever had short ribs… that I can remember anyway.

You’re so lucky to live in beef central. I am supremely envious, haha. I feel like I could really thrive being surrounded by cows.

@simo74 Hah! You need to bring in the Space Simo to set him right.

@boilerman Hell yeah man! It’s a great place to be. Super anabolic.

@vlifter83 Absolutely dude!


Even wilder day, as the Mrs flew out. Got up at 0600 to get in my 300 squats, then got in 150 push ups then, then breakfast, then smoked some ribs and did push ups while that happened, then 150 swings w/24 kg bel. then got in a 2.25 mile walk with my kid, dinner, then a 1.5 mile walk with a 45lb weighted vest. Before the 2.25 mile walk was the ribs. Let’s talk about those with photos






First time ever making beef ribs, let alone smoking them, and they were absolutely amazing. I feel incredible.

Other great photos

Carnivore chicken burgers

And simplifying life with supplement tackle box


Spot the Biotest! Haha

Final week of famine starts tomorrow. In-laws are in town, so its not gonna be legit, but will keep it light and start proper feasting soon.

Most of those I cannot even get my hands on it unless a site sends it.

This very site you’re on will send it to you!

Got in a 1.5 mile walk w/50lb weighted vest after a dinner of grassfed sirloin, grainfed flat iron steak and some egg whites.
