Thanks, CBear. Im off to slash my wrists.

if you want that life affirming positive bullshit go back to the other side of the river. but honestly, what fucktard said that to you and with what justification?

Seriously, I have cleavage…or is that what benching does?

benching or squatting, depends on the cleavage. I prefer the squatting, just cuz if i really want the other kind they would have to be purchased. [/quote]

Gee, thanks alot Cbear. Of all the people on this site, I was really hoping for your support on this. I checked the mail today; even a few guidelines on how to go about offing myself would have left me with a warm fuzzy feeling…jeez!

On a serious note, a friend of mine who is a trainer at my gym told me that. I’m not worried, I’ve seen his clients…just sayin’.
Squat cleavage can be bought, too. But what’s the point?

at this point im not sure if you’re serious.

i do, however, know plenty of ways to off yourself. just a matter of how much attention you want to draw to the situation.

Dare I say, I was joking…someone, somehow is gonna get their grannies in a hot, sweaty crumpled wad.
I will however, keep your business card for future reference and referrals.

I believe my version of her update involves a lot more of ME than hers would. i’ll give u g-rated.

she’s working a shit ton of hours at like 4 different jobs (shes not Jamaican… i think), spending time with her bf, and going to 2 or 3 bday dinners a week. the bday dinners started with hers, (3 in a week) then her bf, then other friends.

it’s really a huge crazy mess. but she’s happy and getting things done. oh and she still makes time to hang out with me when i come down there. thats really all that matters, of course!! :slight_smile:

As long as she’s a happy Jamaican and not frying her thyroid and adrenals in the same pan…it’s all good.
It would be nice of her to stop by this side of the fence, say hello to her fans.

So, I decided I’m not going to use the 5 3 1 format for upper body. Of course, there is always room to improve in my upper body strength but as I have been under tremendous stress the past three weeks,my training and diet has not been up to par. The first place I noticed a loss of mass was in my legs…sucks because I’ve worked so hard to build any…So lower body is priority for me.
That may come back and bite me in the ass later on…oh well.

Yesterday’s upper body training

Chins 5 x 5

Cable flyes 3 x 8

Cable rows 3 x 8

Push ups 3 x 10

Straight arm pulldowns 3 x 8

Dips 3 x 8

287

Today 100s

warm up: 15 x jumping jacks, pat jacks, crossovers
10 x prison squats, mountain climbers

10 x 100m

cool down 1 x 400m walk

aw man. then she’ll know i was saying nice things about her. well, nice-ER.

shes supposed to eat relatively normal the next week or so, so that when she gets her allergy tests done, they’ll see WHAT she’s reacting to. which means she’ll know what not to eat, instead of eliminating everything outside of a few rare meats and gluten free sugar free brownies.

oh the humanity.

did i mention she’s a picky eater anyway.

HERE I AM!!! TAH-DAH!!! =D

First, glad to know I have been missed! YAY! =D

Second, yes I have been a busy maniac… trying to get a bit more sleep on most nights… Training has sucked balls the last few weeks… so Jim (my Coach, CBear’s Sex Slave) has ordered me to give up squatting, deadlifting and benching for 3-4 weeks… only accessory work and conditioning stuff… should be interesting.

My allergy test is next week and I get the results back in 4-6 weeks. I have a couple of out-of-town weddings in the next few weeks so I will be busy with those…

Oh yeah, SKYE… your DLs rock my face off! How in the hell can you do RDLs with 225 for 4? You are a freak (in the nicest way possible)… PLEASE don’t kill yourself… we already have a shortage of awesome and strong women in the world…

Keep up the good work! =D

Yay! You stopped by!

Ok, wait…wha?! You a wedding planner now? CBear was not lying about the Jamaican thing.

I thought the whole idea was for you to REST not take on more stuff…
First, you rebel against modern medicine, now you’re dissing the whole REST concept…WHAASSUPWIDDAT?

Long as you’re happy…

About my DLs…last time I checked, you were pulling in the 300s.
Y’all need to quit blowing smoke up my ass… :stuck_out_tongue:

Hey there! Umm… there is NO smoke being blown up your ass (that costs extra ;D)… Yeah I DL in the 300’s but a ROMANIAN DEADLIFT? That’s another story! (Unless RDL stands for regular deadlift in your log…?) Either way it’s a freakin’ good lift! Especially since I weight 2x as much as you!

And no… not a wedding planner, just a matchmaker (CBear and her man… SUCCESS!) I just have to attend some out-of-town weddings as a guest! That’s all…

I really am trying to rest more… but I also have to get my hustle on! =D

Nuh uh…they are RDLs. Stop mid-shin and pull, right? I have them to thank for any semblance of an ass and hammies. What I like about them is they dont put as much stress on my lower back. I have an grade 4 spondylolisthesis at L5 so I have to be EXTRA careful.

My form gets preeetty shitty sometimes pulling conventional, which puts my back out of commission for days and sumo does a number on my right knee.
And no, you do not weigh 2x as much as me…there you go again with the smoke. I have coupons but I think I’ll use them next time around :-H

I agree, get your hustle on…but take care of yourself.
BTW, I saw your article, great job!! I think there’s so much info nowadays that people forget to start at the very beginning. I hope you’ll be writing more.
I look forward to them.

Molly:

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!

you did NOT play matchmaker.

I picked Jim out of your training videos and demanded that you bring him to me. And you did. Sheesh, get the story straight!!

Re: judgement free zone
I dont have a sex slave. I’m the horny one. I keep expecting a rolled up newspaper. Apparently, most public places are unacceptable for sex. I’m sure the other people in Toys R Us could have learned something, though.

But seriously. I’m very, very lucky.

Re: your pic
NICE ASS!!!
no smoke.

Toys R Us !!! Scarring kids and adults, alike…nice!
I saw his pics on SAMA…I’d be happy too if I had anything close to that as a sex slave.
Seriously, congrats.

Re: pic
Thank you. Still working on it, though.

300

Seriously impressed with the RDL’s. Ah… when I read these logs I can’t wait to get gym access again. And nice picture. You don’t have to be so modest.
