They do do some weird shit with some foods haha.
The beauty of differing cultures.
Tell you what they do do well though, is the damn Cheesecake Factory and Applebys chain restaurants LOL.
I’ve eaten at those two joints more times than I care to admit over different points of time I’ve spent in the US. 
I really thought you Aussies were tougher than this…haha
I am a pome we are just whingers. LOL
You should try living here. 
And it’s All free range grass fed too. Actually, most of our meat is top quality here. Conditions been so good the last couple seasons.
I can get rabbit/deer/roo usually for free/case of beer. Haha. It’s all nice, but a bit too lean for me.
Rabbit is so good though. Wow.
Also, crocodile meat…wowzers.
I love a good rabbit casserole but it is a bit of a pain picking through the bones
I just boil them whole and break it up like a chicken, and eat with salt.
Conditioning tonight
55KG (121 lbs) slam ball, to shoulder 1 each side then 10 burpees. For 5 rounds
Total 10 ball to shoulder and 50 burpees
Tonight’s session
Wednesday 12th July - week 1
Axle deadlift
Bar x 10
60 x 5
100 x 3
130 x 5 x 3 sets - RPE 3, 3, 3
130 x max - 15 reps (stopped there with a few in the tank)
Glutes so sore from Mondays Bulgarians. Deadlift still moved ok though. Max set was a lung buster.
Axle overhead press
60 x 8 x 3 sets (132 lbs). RPE 7, 7, 6,
60 x 12 - this has to be a rep PR - all strict reps
Overhead is feeling very nice.
Bent over Axle rows
60 x 12 x 3 sets
Good back pump. And some extra grip work.
Dips
3 sets - 15, 15, 13
Made sure there were deep, solid burn on the last set.
A little sore but feeling great tonight.
Deadlift top set - what RPE is this ?
Overhead top set
The most impressive part of those overhead presses was your ab strength and endurance. Seems like a weird comment I guess, but you didn’t even show any signs of breakdown until after rep 10. That’s a long time, especially since that was your fourth set, and even more impressive without a belt.
Another killer session Simo
I find holding a brace through the mid section on these makes it pretty hard to get breath, as you dont want to lose the brace as you breath in. This has an impact on the last few reps as I start to get dizzy. I was happy with this one.
thanks Big Rob, starting to feel good at the moment, going to ride the wave as long as I can.
It looks like you are making some serious improvement with the overhead, the growth over the last few months seems huge. Excellent work brother
mid week update.
2 gym sessions down, one to go on Friday - tick
1 conditioning session done, second one tonight will be farmers carries done at the gym (got to start practicing for my comp). The other two will be at the weekend.
2 litres of water a day, tick so far and have also dropped my coffee consumption a little at work because of this too.
Protein for breakfast - big tick so far
Protein before bed - tick so far
No crap snacks at night - tick so far but I would be lying if I said I wasn’t tempted.
So far feeling good and whilst it is probably too early to see a benefit I do feel like doms is reduced this week. Most importantly I am feeling good.
Thursday night conditioning
Farmers walk - 20meters drop turn 20m back
Handles x 1
60 x 6 rounds
Rower - 5 mins
Echo bike - 8 mins (alternate between legs only and legs and arms each minute.
Farmers felt heavy on the pick up but moved ok, especially given it was the first time doing these in a few months.
