Shane's Over 35 Shenanigans

As long as you guys aren’t competing with us for one of the worst records in the league that’s all I care about. 12x225 is like comic book numbers to me. :open_mouth:

That is it. The good news is, the adjustment to the volume that I was doing has worked. My knee really hasn’t hurt much lately.

Solid work Shane. That was a lot of work before some very respectable squats. Heavy DB RDLs as well. Glad to hear that adjustment in volume is helping your knee. Just think, by the time we’re in our 60’s we will have adjusted down to no volume at all and everything will still hurt… :joy:

Haha. No doubt. With age should come some wisdom. I am finally starting to learn to listen to my body and not just hammer down try to work through the pain.

Thursday Cardio
Weight 249. Fawk, at least I am consistent.

25 minutes of Elliptical to finish off cardio

No sauna. I had a Dr appointment today and the LA Fitness that was OTW had a broke sauna. Oh well, hit it tomorrow.

Nice job Shane. Massive cal dump I’m sure. I feel you on the fatness. Feeling very heavy here too. Just choosing to live in ignorance… :yum:

Hope the doctor went well.

Congrats! :man_dancing: :joy: At least you’re weighing yourself!

Solid upper session Shane. Don’t know how you get 90 on HS Incline for reps like that. Great work!

That’s it. We drove up to Nashville to see a band that my wife and I like. Of course they decided to add an Atlanta stop a week after we purchased tickets to Nashville. Oh well, we have family up there and it gives us a good reason to see them.

Nice job on the bike ride Shane. I would love to average 18 mph for that length of time…

Hope y’all had fun at the concert. A band that both you and your wife like? What a novel idea. I’ve tried playing outlaw country and Stevie Ray Vaughn for my wife and it ain’t exactly her thing. :joy: Nowadays, she mostly listens to the local contemporary Christian station, which I have to say, has improved a lot over the years. Probably the only genre that we both like is reggae.

Thanks Trent. We had a great time. The wife and I pretty much like all music. I can listen to electronic to country and everything in between. Agreed on the Christian music. It is definitely a lot better than it was when I was a kid.

Speaking of good weight moving around… That was a great session today. I’d love to get 3x235 on bench and then say it felt heavy. :joy: Nice job on those pull-ups and OHP too. Solid session. :+1:t2: :+1:t2:

Thanks Trent. I was hoping for 5, it just wasn’t there today. Going to bump my TM next cycle though. I am going to keep pull ups in for awhile.

That’s it. Sorry for the lack of being around. End of year sales meetings, customer visits to deliver baskets etc is going to keep me busy this next couple weeks.

I’ll be in when I can.
