have not been able to lift due to new night job. doing some freelance internet traffic stuff. upgrading my situation at home so I can work from there, so should be hitting some millies tonight.
289, still below 290, for me that’s something
I refuse to work more than one job. For now anyway. Gonna put a T1 into your house?
Good job on becoming a judge. I am planning to go check out the Highland Games here in Minnesota on May 14th, couple guys I know are competing. I was at the crossroads of investing in a kilt, or more PL gear. PL won.

kilt is cheap compared to new briefs. at least I think so. still, the kilt won’t help you squat more. at least you have your priorities straight.
I’m on cable. just upgraded from 1.2MB to 20MB. wife just called to say it was fast.
So now you can judge Highland Games? Cool…
Congrats your honor…
and you can get the porn so much faster!!!
I mean its good to have highspeed at home for work
judging is good.
well played.

Ahh, yes. High-speed porn. Don’t want to have to wait around for the girls to show up.
Congrats on the certification to judge highland games. That’s cool.
Kilts I was looking at were around $100+?
I love my high speed cable internet. Make it always a party.
Judge MJ… Thats pretty cool… Do you get to speed like hell the way the judges do around here?

stillwaterkilts.com, got my “economy” kilt for about 35. Didn’t want to spend real money til I was sure I was going to stay in the sport. Now, I’m just too tight to upgrade
4/6/11 5/3/1 military(1) cycle 13b

felt shitty, had been a whole week since i last lifted. got through it. today, as i reviewed my numbers, it became clear that instead of cycle 14 like i thought i was doing, i was repeating cycle 13. Oh well. almost done with this cycle so I can go into the real cycle 14. I think this is the 3d cycle I’ve repeated, so I have actually been on 5/3/1 for 16 cycles.
The curls I am only going up 5 lbs/session. the shrugs I will go up 50lb/session until I am at a weight that is decent work.
My hip was feeling shittier and shittier, so I stopped working it for a few days. Its feeling better. I think I may have been pushing the stretches too hard. I will start em up again next weekend, a little gentler. both the adductor and the psoas feel beat to shit. serve me up some sighs with my waaaahmburger.
do something Harder
old lardass
Thanks MJ. Looks like they are about 15 minutes from me as well. I might just order one for fun now.

no, any authority i have is strictly in my imagination
I hate all officials/judges just on principle. Unless they rule my way. I’ve been thinking about getting my USATF certification. Might when I stop competing. And my internets like 1 step up from dial up.
Pete, if you decide to compete let me know and I’ll give you some links on how to make some home made equipment.

Yeah don’t waste money on the deluxe model. Apart from the wood trim, cup holders and upgraded stereo, they’re basically the same.
And yes take those stretches gently, push too hard and you’ll end up in more discomfort than if you didn’t do them. I’ve discovered this recently by jumping straight into shoulder and hip mobility work for snatching. Owwwww.

Shoot away. Doubt it is going to happen this year, but next year is high in the realm of probability. Couple of strong young bucks that live by and train at my commercial gym compete regularly. Have invited me to train with them.
nothing new but laziness, but my ego prevents my being satisfied on page 2
okay, so i finally got around to lifting:
4/13/11 5/3/1 bench(1) cycle 13
245x 4 meh
bbbbbbench cg
155x 10/10/10/10/10
bbb bb roze
155x 10/10/10/10/10
shrugs
225x 10/10/10
kerlz
55x 10/10/10
supersetted the bench/roze and shrugs/kerlz. ran out of time and had to stop on the 3d set.\
I think I am taking slightly better control of my schedule, so I should be hitting this with more consistency and regularity.
also, have high hopes for throwing. about 10 days ago I stopped following my pt’s instructions, and my hip has been nearly pain free for a couple days. i’ll be hitting some bodyweight squats tonight, see if the adductor and/or psoas peels off the femur. If not, I will be going back to 5/3/1 on squats and deadlifts, but with a very low training max, prolly around 200 lbs to start.
my promise to myself is that if I can get 2 weeks pain free, I get to take a couple test throws. we’ll see how that goes.
wish harder
old lardass
nice pressing.
not listen to pt harder.
