Hmmm… I am not sure I have ever really attention to that. I will give it a try. Thanks!
Oh my. No one in these parts will tear you apart. Just if you’re looking for feedback and ways to improve . . .
I have competed in powerlifting for a number of years and had a guy in the O35 strongly advise me against some of the things I was doing with DL and squat. I took his information to heart and believe it was invaluable moving forward. Never too old to improve!
That being said, I’m also a big believer that different things work for different people. And experimentation will help you figure out the best ways for you.

Late to the PR party… but Congrats CL… I bought rattlesnack from an online wild game company and served it at a Superbowl party a few years back…now that turned some heads and stomachs in these parts!! Lets just say the Elk salami was a bigger take…hahaha…I wonder why people never come back to the party for a 2nd year?

Thanks! I have a buddy that thinks it’s great! In all fairness, I have never eaten any, and have no plans on trying it. Maybe, during a zombie apocalypse, if the is no grass or tree bark left…lol Did you like it?
Congrats on the PR.
Snake cuisine. Jeez.

What they said, CL. 035 is not a place where we have to dog one another to feel good about ourselves.
And I forgot to mention that I ran across a snake in our yard, while weed-eating. Of course, I have ventured too far north to have many venomous snakes. It was a pretty little garter snake…about 3’. Took one look at me and was gone!
Thanks LS. We have white racer that lives under our steps/ house or somewhere close. I normally would not tolerate that, but found too many small rattlers last year. They will eat them. Jed has affectionately named it Al Feesco. Not sure I like it enough to name it…lol Scares the crap out if me when he out and about.

Tried sumo with the first 5 of the 5x5. First time I have tried it. Hmmmm… I can see adding this. Didn’t do much this morning, but everything was solid. Stopped by the “crossfit” gym, I use that term VERY loosely, thought maybe I could get some advice from His Highness. Uh no. For $89 dollars a month he can teach me functional training, but he is all tapped out on personal trainer time right now, for a mere $150/month. Don’t think he could help me with my bench, since there isn’t one. If I want to sweat in metal building with no a/c and minimal equipment, I already have that for free. Sorry, hope you guys can put up with me here.
Gladly. Plenty of video available to learn bench technique from available.
Dont worry about it…Most of the people here have dealt with my sorry ass. Im a freaking Ass Hole a lot of the time.

First lesson: lie on the bench
2nd lesson will be more informative
Some of the members who’ve been on here a while may remember when I was helping tear down a brother’s deck and a cottonmouth got me in the leg, twice. Put me in the hospital for a few days and laid me up for a few weeks.
Rattlesnake = good grilled over open flame, so so in a stew with grub worms, horrible raw. Guess that’s why the gave me the tattoo.
Oh shit! I hate cottomouths as much as I hate rattlesnakes!!! And, the answer is still no. You can have my share. I would eat the grub worms first. Thought you were from Alabama not Louisiana. They always told me… A coon ass will never go hungry as long as there is road kill…lol
Ah Cher, you haven’t been round here much. Papa is pure Cajun and spent much of my misspent youth in New Iberia, LA.

I had a feeling you were going to say that.
One reason I like living in NH is that we don’t have any of those poisonous creatures you southerns have to deal with.
Good luck with your bench. Don’t overthink it. I like where Harry is going with his tutorial.
