That’s a good ride - even if you do live in the flatlands!
Lift with my boy alternating week schedule, Friday night on one week, then Tuesday and Thursday the next after he does Jiu Jitsu…
He’s been making serious progress for a while, finally allowing himself to see it…
Rides:
Trying to chase my GF up the hills of Chapel Hill bring one of your ride reports to mind… If you can do mountain trails after squatting. I should be able to not fall over dead on these hills.
Squats
5x5x285
Bent rows
3x15x75
pulldowns
5x5x120
Lift with my son. He was sick and tired, literally. But he’s got balls…
Loosing discipline… Or else getting tired… since I feel sore to the point of bad pain I’ll be charitable and call it wise… But who am I kidding. I wouldn’t hurt if I did yoga… And if anybody “kicks me in the downward dog”; I swear I’m going to jail…
Bad news medical front. Nothing lethal, just gotta find helpful doctor. cortisol 1/3 lowest in range. No surprise with my origins…
Squat - big news here is “I can’t add” well at least 8’s and 5’s all previous 325 squats were really 335. F!
285x5

Preacher curl in shitty machine. Free weights from now on
5x10x90
Nice squats and deads. Sorry to hear about the cortisol. It always seems to be something…arghh!
Might explain why I feel “alive” after lifting, serious emergency at work, or massive caffeine intake…
Thursday lift w/ son. Both are legs are still fried from Tuesday. So upper body…
Flat Bench
3x285 (F that’s heavy, goes up slow)

behind head mp
5x10x65 burns…
shrugs

5x40
5x30
8x15x30
Took son and daughter to American Tobacco trail…
to teach Daughter to ride… 14 miles, slowly… Beautiful day.
You’re teaching your daughter to ride with a 14 mile ride?? That is hardcore! 
Good benching. And I agree…285 is heavy.
You’re really putting a lot of mile on that bike. All you numbers are moving in the right direction. Great training.
Hey guy’s
Daughter has like 300-400 miles on a trailer cycle (one where she could pedal). She’s my “Monster Girl”…
Doc says I need more cardio… I put about 300 miles on bike a year… Doubt Cardio bunnies get that on the stationary… Oh, well…
Yesterday, was supposed to be Squats and Dead’s…
Only had time for Squats.
5x285
3x5x335

GF was away and we hadn’t seen each other in way too long… Priorities…

Bench
3x10x195
Seated mp
5x5x105
Good’n wiped out…
Ex announced trying to buy house where it would be impossible to transport daughter to school… Most of stress left in the weights…
Again, great squats and DLs. Really likin’ the 3x5@335.
I always liked biking, but haven’t done it in years. I am afraid that, at my advanced age, I might throw a hip out trying to mount it.
Dude, give it a go… set the seat low, torture your lower quads for a while, slowly (like 1/4 inch at a time) raise the seat… It is the only cardio I can tolerate…
Also there’s the trick about stepping on the closest pedal while swinging leg over… Like mounting a horse, or passenger on a motorcycle…
TIME CRUNCH… Experiment 3x10’s little rest… try to use about the weight of 5x5
In and out 33 minutes, showered… Arms, back and lats fried…

I get some of my best (hardest) workouts when I’m short on time. But a workout and a shower in 33 minutes is really moving. Unless you’re bald and can shower, dry off and be dressed in 5 minutes (like me).
Nice training you have going there Null. Keep up the good work
Home wuss day…
