Things are moving in an excellent direction for you, and that is the physique that, when encountered in the wild, will make most troublemakers say ā€œoh just f**k right off with that nonsenseā€.

Ha ha, yep this is down to the fact that I didn’t eat with purpose over the 8 weeks and I had a pretty high stress load outside of the gym, Seems like I managed to get stronger but not gain any weight and hopefully no fat. I’ll take it

It sounds so simple but having something to strive for and training with purpose is just so productive. I tell people in the gym all the time to find something to train for or compete and most of them don’t really understand why.

I love this. It makes me think of something funny my son said;
My misses was telling me and my son, the other day how the dog is such a pest at the dog park and that people often moan or say things to her, and she feels embarrassed. I replied ā€˜he is silly like that when I go to, but no one really says anything to me’ My son just laughed and said ā€œdad, that’s cause you’re massive and you look like you are going to hurt people all the timeā€. I took that as a compliment and motivation to get even bigger.

Now you have me wondering what I can find …

That’s a pretty awesome compliment. To be fair, I think you are massive and look like you give good hugs. :hugs:

My son is a big hugger, he is so skinny he is always cold, so he will often squash up beside me on the couch for a cuddle while we watch a movie. He knows I am really a big softy but we don’t tell anyone else. Shhhhh :wink:

Good stuff Rob,impressed with the dumbells,even getting them into position is difficult at that weight. They got a pair of 60s at the gym Im frequenting but their just too damn menacing lol

Yer we have dumbells up to 80KG in my gym but most of the ones bigger than 60 are just gathering dust

Get on, you absolute unit, great end to the year, PRs, visible improvements to your physique, all achieved whilst being a busy stressed dad, with the most anabolic thing in your regime being chilli. Proving age is just a number and hard work, consistency and discipline are the real magic.
