Yeah if I don’t break down any further lol.
This is why I pat myself on the back (occasionally) for where I’m at at 33 years of age. I haven’t really improved much over the years. Certain lifts go up and then get neglected because I focus on something else for awhile. My “big three” are a roller coaster.
But I’m proud to have managed decent strength and a good physique through the years. I’m not someone with dad bod trying to battle back (no offense to anyone in that category). I’m just the same ole guy I was in college.
I guess my silver lining when I’m not so excited about the actual weight on the bar is my consistency.

I can understand that. Haven’t roller coastered in a while, most of my lifts just stagnate. I’m so infrequent concerning my bench press, so it rarely ever goes anywhere. So I’d have to change some things or go back to Westside. My bench progressed to 200 mainly because the template I used had me training bench so frequently every week. Loved it.
I start pushing bench and my shoulders get cranky so I switch to DBs. Push squat till my back hurts or I decide to focus on front squats and power cleans. Back and forth, back and forth.

Your going raw correct ? Or some single ply?
How 'bout it, @Chris_Colucci? Any chance of bringing the T Cell back?
Come to think of it I can’t even remember when or why it disappeared.
Raw at the moment. Although I may or may not test single ply some years later.
It just kind of fizzled out. It was invite only, Eventually it became a small group and once enough “how do you train x” threads happened no one started any more threads.

Just got sent home from school for nearly beating someones head in, this kid keeps stirring me up, “wanting to fight” and today knocked all my food out of my hands. I went rage and he just runs of like a pussy, chased him down to where he was hiding and he runs off again. I just saw red and i can tollerate name calling and anything else but once my food gets touched thats when i lose it. Why do people act all tough but when it comes down to it they run away?

Sounds like he likes you. Next time you see him, try cupping his scrotum.

Oi I resemble that remark !! Actually I don’t know what you class as a dad bod. I’m a dad and I have a bod and it doesn’t do what it used to when I was in my 20’s. But I reckon the years of experience and mental toughness more than make up for age. I am not strong compared to lots on here, but compared to most soft 20 year olds that work for me I still reckon I’d go alright !!

By chance is this sort of a reference inspired by certain events on a certain thread?
Actually It was enjoyable…Honestly there was some good info content that was starting to be discussed .
In today’s world assault will land you in jail, even if you’re a minor. Never initiate. Be careful.
Also you’ve got nothing to prove. Bullies troll people because they get a reaction. Next time he fucks with you just say something like “I’m sorry your dad left and your mom drinks too much.” Most bullies have a fucked home life. It will get in his head.

Heres the funny part about all this… I have a tough time with these internet tough guys, Mainly as I stated a long time ago on here is that Im not exactly from what some might call the right side of the tracks myself… I wasnt raised exactly White collar middle class. Matter of fact Im including a pick for people to get a idea what allot of guys I call friends are actually like.

Thats the thing guys got to get a handle on…there nothing wrong about getting into a debate regarding certain issue. Especially things like training approaches and concepts and the like. Guys have got to get it through their heads its OK. Hell in that way a person can actually learn something that might be beneficial based on some others persons experience or point of view. Seriously … not to sound big headed or anything I have been around the block and payed some dues along with being lucky having had the opportunity to gleam stuff off some successful guys in this shit in the real world.
But that doesn’t mean I don’t keep a open mind and pretend I know it all. For example since I have been referencing @The_Mighty_Stu I respect the hell out of his knowledge base(in a non nut hugging way…lol). Even if I know we probably have a training approach and philosophy that is ying and yang since I am not looking at being a top level Drug Free BodyBuilder doesn’t mean I cannot gleam things from him to improve what I am doing.
