I’m a little jealous. My professors were lab guys. One was average looking and is now overweight. The other was super skinny.
They never practiced anything.

TBH, every time I read a study from one of those so-called “experts”, I think, “What the fuck is this? It looks like a high school project. The only place something like this belongs is on the author’s fridge held in place by animal shaped magnets with a couple of gold stars pasted on it.”

Spent half the day working, half the day drinking beer on the beach. I regret nothing.

Reminds me of a great story I heard about a guy when he was young (think 5-7 years old). He is driving with his dad and his slightly older sister.
Previously, his dad had told him that girls don’t fart, only boys do. So he is sitting in back with his sister and he smells something. He blames his dad but his dad says it wasn’t him.
Then his sister says she did it. Now the guy can’t marry the ideas of his dad saying girls don’t fart and his sister farting. Because his dad is always right.
So he thinks for a while, then points at his sister and yells “you’re a boy, stop pretending to be a girl”!

I realise that at this point my biggest goal is to move enough weight to justify the purchase of a STrong, SBD or Apeman shirt and/or knee sleeves.
I don’t know how I feel about this.

If you get a big enough total, you can just get that stuff for free.

Where do you keep your podcasts? Need some new things to listen too👍
Training at Bevs today. Despite having been able to hit the weights 6-7x/week for the last 2 months, I’m feeling especially less than my best amongst the crew here at the moment -lol (#210butitdontmatter)

Come work out at my ‘gym’ (a swimming/tennis club to which a half-decent weight room was added). You’ll feel like an IFBB pro.

Lol - in the hour or so I’ve been here, I’ve watched 2 photo shoots, a video crew following bev and a figure competitor, and I don’t know how many npc competitors and pros.
It really is a great atmosphere for those who can feed off of it.

Missed my workout taking kids to the fair. I regret nothing. Derby night had a suv/van/light truck division this year. Pretty aggressive driving in that group. There was a 12-17 year old class where the drivers couldn’t be licensed and had their parents next to them in the passenger seat.
Nothing like a bunch of kids using the gas and brake like capacitors.

Damn that brings back bad memories. An ex of mine bought me tickets to a monster car/smash up derby type thing. It was indoors.
It was so loud. I felt ill the entire time and for about 3 days after haha.
I know we covered this but it’s fresh in my mind this morning. Apparently I’m a visual person and unless I see you doing something I get suspicious…
I find myself calling bullshit on stuff because I’ve seen lots of posts and no photos or videos of personal achievements. How can I believe you?
I kind of feel like I’m being a dick, but on the other hand I wouldn’t hire an online coach based on a screen name and written advice. I need to see you and see a reason to listen to you (other than the fact that you sound smart when you type).
You don’t even have to reveal your identity around here. Black out your face or cut off your head in the shot. Just give me something.

And yet plenty of people…
My brother in law (a beast of a PLer/strongman competitor) pointed out to me that a few “swiped” articles combined with people new to the sport who don’t understand lifting with gear and what sounds impressive to a layman not actually being even a mediocre accomplishment can take someone pretty fat… I mean far.

I recently got hired on at Costco, and I don’t know what’s more irritating.
Someone complaining about how long I’m taking with their orders when they asked for like 6 hotdogs, 2 brisket sandwiches, an entire 18” pizza, this weird ass deep fried thing filled with shredded cheese, and like 3 sodas and a sugar covered sundae. God forbid you have to wait a couple of mins. OR, my supervisors who complain that us new hires don’t leave work on time. Maybe we’d leave early if we didn’t have to clean up their section of the food court because they leave early.
