Great looking session Shane! Nice high rep sets on leg press and some very respectable squat sets. Those KB side bends look like a PITA to finish it off too. Way to get after it!

Found you on the Peloton app. You have another fan now. :sunglasses:

Thanks Trent. I am trying. Might try working up to 3 plates again on squats. IDK, will depend on how my knee holds up.

Yeah man, I followed you too. I looked for you earlier but some other jerk was using your name.

Heck yeah man. I know you’ve got 3 plates in you, but, as you said, gotta make sure the knees hold up. Knees and lower back have been my limiting factor for a while on squats and deads. It would have been fun to see how far things would have gone with better joints. Lol

Don’t know who that imposter was. Might change my screen name to TrentMasonOfficial. :joy:

Yeah joints are the big issue, no doubt about it there.

Yeah over on Peloton there is another TM79. Definitely a poser. :joy:

5 minute cool down ride

@raven78 even inspired me to do some mobility work so I did a 5 minute post ride stretch. Wow, I suck at that. Going to need to add more of that in.

Nice ride today Shane! Solid pace on that ride! LOL on the stretching. Was that a Peloton mobility session? When I stretch I don’t even call it stretching. It’s more trying to awkwardly and painfully bend my body about 1/4 of the way into different positions. :joy:

Busy gym, with no head phones means I was slower than usual today.

Why do people feel the need to come over within ear shot and have dumb conversations while purposely trying to make sure you and everyone near can easily hear what they are talking about? This is even more annoying when you are willing your way through your last few reps on a tough set. Fuck em. Happy Friday.

Heck yeah man, still a nice session! I love the bicep warmups with 50>30 reps of curls. I would consider that a legit couple of sets. :joy: Strong work on the chest supported rows. Yeah people just wanting to be heard is pretty annoying. I’m pretty decent at tuning them out but sometimes it is hard to do. Strong session regardless!

Some of those conversations can get stuck in your memory forever, it’s dangerous. I prescribe a backup set of headphones.

My headphones were dead and my back ups have been in my bag long enough I questioned actually putting them in my ears. :joy:

In light of my new need for mobility I might actually hit some yoga today and tomorrow too.

That’s it. Going to start dropping in some stretching at the end of my workouts. Lord knows I need it.

Yesterday I didn’t do any yoga but the I did a 10 minute lower body stretch that I found on the Peloton app.

Good looking push session Shane! Super jealous of those bench numbers, as always… The rest of the work was solid as well. Good on you for adding in some stretching. I might look for some of that on the Peloton app and just throw it in randomly during the day.
