The looks some people give you can be very amusing.

My facking chins have been the bane of me.

I’m working toward a 5x5 on the chins (I weigh around 220 now, so I’m sure if I was a light little bastard I could do it) and today I got so damned close… 5,5,5,5,4.

So, this will fall soon, and then I’ll try to work for more reps.

So far this has been my biggest challenge…

3 months ago, Weight was 238 lbs
Bad Cholesteral 149
Body Fat was was 28%

I have gone down to 218lbs but now am back to 228lbs with muscle mass gain and lowered body fat to 22%.

After the blood test, bad Cholesteral was at 128 and over all cholesteral was 181, 1 point from perfect.

My trainer Joe has helped alot and I give him alot of thanks!

Now for the next 3 months, I want to finish off the last of my gut and handles…

Double bodyweight squats x 20 reps is always good for some laughs.

  2. Get the bench past 1.5 times my bodyweight
  3. Sled pull 315 for 1/2 mile on the beach
  4. Attain a Class I total by Thanksgiving
  5. Look good enough for the ladies as I’m a reformed fat bastard

Stiff-legged squats! As many reps as you can, followed by supine bench press! :slight_smile:
