Reading this conversation I forget that salted butter is not the norm in some countries

Really?! Never knew that, unsalted butter is just weird.

I always use salted butter, but sometimes some freshly cracked pink salt in addition is just beautiful.

@rroo Salt is one of those things you can never have enough of. At least, my blood pressure proved that, haha.

@alex_uk Much appreciated dude! If there was an easier way, I’d take it, haha.


Finished the day up with 75 swings.

AM WORKOUT (0610 natural wake up) FASTED

image

Notes: Since I only have a 40kg and a 20kg bell, I split the difference and did the first 150 swings with the 40, the next 128 with the 20, then finished off with the 40 again. Highest burpee count I got to was 6. Finished it in 15 minutes on the dot: right when the next EMOM was rolling in.

This is a very solid 15 minute workout. I was panting at the end, but not totally wasted. Grip is still the limiting factor on the 40kg swings for me, which just gives me a reason to keep doing them. Great to see this growth.

I can’t remember if you were a fan or not of the Monster Rehab series, but I discovered their Strawberry Lemonade flavor yesterday and it’s basically Hawaiian Punch. This seemed like important news to share here.

Appreciate the looking out dude! I don’t tend to like them because they go down too smooth, haha. I need something with some bite so I slow down.

@T3hPwnisher mate, what’s your thoughts on this article?

I suppose it’s directed at bodybuilders going by the title but come on

Don’t train two days in a row

Just reading this makes me want to bust out 500 burpees man

@ChongLordUno that and the ā€œlifters over 30 need to get realā€ article are both good for a chuckle. Really goes against the ā€œtā€ part of Tnation. On that note, you’ll dig this


PM WORKOUT (1600)

30 Devil Presses (50s)
30 DB thrusters (50s)
30 KB swings (40kg)
90 burpees

Time: 19:20

Notes: Yeah, this sucked. Man, those burpees looked rough. Next time, I’m thinking barbell thrusters. I just don’t have the balance for the DBs.

DEEP WATER INTERMEDIATE Week 2, Workout 1

AM WORKOUT (0550 wake up via alarm, 0830 workout)

Texas deadlift bar TnG deadlifts
10x10x405 w/4:00 between sets

Box jumps
5x10 w/1:00 between sets

20 standing ab wheels
40 reverse hypers
50 band pull aparts
25 band pushdowns

Notes: This was absolutely some Deep Water. Deads started out rough and never got better. Settled on the deadlift bar vs the axle because it allowed greater opportunity for hitching, ramping, and grinding, which seemed pretty crucial to the experience. Let me just take a moment to say that 10x10x405 confirms I am all that is man.

My box for box jumps is my deadlift mats all stacked together. I’ll keep increasing height as I can. I’m a terrible jumper, so it doesn’t take much.

Schedule was a little off with in-laws departing this morning. Got hungry in the middle of my workout.

Gonna get in the squats later, along with Tang Soo Do, and then a night shift.

I got my hotel booked for the comp. Was going to sign up, but I realized I have no idea what my weight class is. One of these mornings, I need to weigh myself.

What kind of competition is it?

Sweet jebus… I’ve got nothing to add.

Although I was thinking … is your food intake still at recent insane levels given this is more Deep Water?

10x10 at 405 is nuts man…

I was initially typing out ā€œsome day I’ll get thereā€¦ā€

But I’m not sure I want to.

Edit: and that’s not to mention it’s just going to get worse haha
