Strong and Conditioned (ChongLordUno)

Man I do miss the burritos that I used to get when I was in california.
Just look for anywhere that was full of mexicans and you knew it was going to be good!

No doubt. I miss San Diego. Glad to find another from there. I still root for the Padres and Chargers.

So true. It’s a bit like NY, where if you find a pizza place full of locals it has to be good. I’ve really been on a breakfast burrito kick lately. Nothing beats a chorizo and egg breakfast burrito with orange sauce.

I didn’t realise this was an either/or situation

Chargers are dead to me now, haha. But I love getting back to SD. It’ll always be ā€œhomeā€. And it has the best Mexican food in the world…and is the home of Jack in the Box, which is the best fast food joint ever.

And it’s the only place to get decent carne asada fries too.

You ever eat at Oscar’s AKA Pat and Oscar’s AKA O’s Country Kitchen? There’s only 1 left now. Best breadsticks ever. Everything else was kinda ok, but it didn’t matter…because breadsticks.

Oh man, and Rubios…

Man I miss San Diego, haha.

Never been. Haven’t spent much time is SD for several years. I’ve visited for work a few times here and there, but never had enough time to really enjoy it like I’d like to.

Didn’t know that, but agree Jack in the Box is tough to beat as a fast food spot. I used to get their tacos a lot when I lived in Pasadena and had one right down the street.

Love Rubios. Again, it was Pasadena when I frequented that spot.

It is one of the only entrees that is equally accepted at all meals. A breakfast burrito for lunch, a chicken burrito for dinner, and a carne asada burrito for dinner. That doesn’t work for most food items. Try it for burgers, pizza, pasta, pad thai, etc… You’d get looked at weird.

Man, I admired you on so many things… But this is total BS! Whataburger is the best fast food chain. Now, if you haven’t heard of them and eaten there, all will be forgiven.

Are you sure you don’t mean burger joint? Because I don’t imagine Whataburger makes a very good terryaki bowl, or sriracha breakfast burrito, or tacos.

Lots of places can do better menu items, but only Jack in the Box does them all.

I hate being wrong, but you are correct.

Completely agree. It’s even better because I think @ChongLordUno was getting stale/ overwhelmed with his old goals/ program, and he was man enough to change it and get back to business. It’s awesome.

Fucking ripping @TrainForPain my man

Yeah mate I was in the training dark place when I was down in England and it hit me how thin I had become

Chasing physique goals to end up looking like Skeletor’s ballsack.

Thanks to @T3hPwnisher articulating this as the Sirens call, it was like Rocky 2 when Rocky is consoling Adrian in the hospital and she gives him permission to train

It was my ā€˜Mickey’ moment

ā€œWell what the hell are we waiting for!!!ā€

Now it’s back in the fucking gym, chasing chickens which are disguised as reps.

Iron fuelled reps.

Let’s fucking do this shit people.

Get your heads down and just fucking train.

Minimal lifts, maximum focus.

I think it’s also a bit of a skill that you improve at once you’re more familiar with the motion. I was doing 3x20 of them on my S/E during my recovery week as part of a circuit, and that can get challenging. Try supersetting them with inverted ring rows.

I honestly admire it. I’m bored with what I do, but I have like a mental hang up switching things up so every morning I go in and just knock out the same thing

First week of Grey Man under the belt.

Workouts take a wee bit longer however on the upside, keeps me out the house a bit longer

Plan to keep this block running for 12 weeks. No fanfare or shiny magpie shit to distract.

Just solid lifting. Bare bones.

I had scheduled in a deload however seriously cannot be fucked taking time out. Just have that urge to constantly lift and gain.

Minimal lifts mean minimal stress

Minimal stress means maximum gains.
