These were awesome… but my right Brachioradialis (The muscle near the elbow… looks like a little ball) was REALLY tight, and sore… I had to stretch it out…

Good workout generally speaking… :smiley:

Done for the week… Tomorrow is a BIG ASS breakfast… then ANOTHER Santa Clause Parade… this time it’s @ 6:00pm… it’s the parade of lights!! :smiley:

Can’t wait… :slight_smile:

I add my weights to myself when doing weighted planks. I lay on my stomach with the plates next to me, reach behind and pull one up, then pull the other on top of the first one. I wiggle around as necessary to balance them, and then do my planks.

Ya… it’s not too too bad for static stuff… but when I am doing pushups up and down… it sucks… cuz then tend to slide and stuff… but ya… weighted planks… I never even thought about adding weight to those… that’s a GREAT idea… :smiley:

So what’s the deal with ‘level’s’ here?? Level 1 2 3 etc… is that how much $$$ you spend on supplements or?? Man… I would LOVE to buy some of the stuff here… but shipping to Canada is crazy! :S

Level 1 means you’ve bought “something.” Level 5 (like AngryVader) means you’ve bought everything, for several years - you’re one of the top purchasers. I’ve bought more than shows when I check my purchases, but I think it takes them a while to update everything.

Ahhhh I C… how much was/is shipping for you?? Is it really THAT much more then to Canuck land??

I’m in the US, 70 miles from their facilities…it is free! :stuck_out_tongue:

You could probably bribe me to bring some HOT-ROX to Ogdensburg next May.

Hehehehehe… Are you going up? I’d TOTALLY LOVE to make a little trip down… I might even have some vacation time saved up… AND I LOVE to fish… :smiley:

I’ll actually probably be in upstate NY (Binghamton & Syracuse) in April, but won’t make it to Ogdensburg/Edwardsville until later in the summer, if at all next year. :frowning:

We might try ice fishing up there next winter, but something tells me I would get very cranky in the cold. The well at the cottage doesn’t work in the winter…and outhouses suck.

great improvements man. keep it up
