HMmMM, i think that’s all I did…

Ya, good.

OHYES my bar adventure that I am sure ya’ll are just DYING to hear about.

A week ago I went to the bar. WEll, it was a pub I suppose, but it seems very bar like. Slightly less douchey than a NORMAL bar, so it’s like a par, or a bub, bab, ya.
A boy asked for my number, :O! Actually, he got his friend to ask for my number, :O! THat’s even better, I think.

AND HE was a bouncer so he was sober :O!
Keeps gettin’ better…

He texted me the next day!

:open_mouth:

ANd this past saturday he texted me and asked about my week!

:open_mouth:
:open_mouth:

But he never asked me out on a date. I have this mission to like go out on a real date with a real live man/boy before 2013, but I might have to change it to sometime DURING 2013 instead :/. NO PRESSURE.

KBYE

I believe most of them are the vocal minority. Don’t give it a second thought. You’re a cool girl with a really unique personality.

The saying “leave some in the tank” doesn’t mean “use your 5rm for your last attempt”
Be more aggressive ya big goober!

NON! I have come to the conclusion that this is the BESt, no fail powerlifting meet method anyone has EVER CREATED IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD!!!

467

K good, hard day today

Squats
140 x 8
145 x 8
150 x 8

Good mornings
85 x 10
95 x 8
95 x 8

Leg extensions
3 x 10 ramped

back ext

I think the reason my squat sucks is because I do not put enough effort into it. If deadlifts feel hard it’s like awesome, but if squats feel hard I act like a baby.

From now on my squats have to feel like HELLL.
Only way they gonn’ stop sucking!!

K I am getting anxiety about my squat (again/still)

It’s just WRONG OKAY PEOPLE! WRRRRONG.

Not like super wrong, but wrong enough that seeing myself do it embarrasses me.

I am going to attempt high bar squatting CRYYYYYYY
I suck at high bar squatting, but maybe i can get proper from this way, I dunno.
maybe at my next meet I’ll be able to squat 135 with high bar :/.
Today 95 felt heavy :O.
I am going to throw in light squats a few times a week to get used to this new shizzzz.

K, ya.

High bar has been a lifesaver for me. If it goes up then so does my low bar. It feels more natural and keeps my shoulders healthy, so I do it almost exclusively now.

Spock - This log is an absolute hoot, one of only a handful I follow, and I don’t even care about powerlifting. I really enjoy your humour, honesty and the way you express yourself. Reckon you’re someone who’d be really cool to know in real life. Well done on chasing down your life and lifting goals - keep going :slight_smile: Rob

472

What’s wrong? Knee caving?

Judging from your meet vid you have a really wide stance. Move in your feet a bit and point the toes a bit more forward, less “out”.

473

“Why do we fall?”

It’s my forward leaning that is buggin me now! I realized I squat totally wrong and use 100% the wrong muscles. I don’t think my legs do anything really, I have no idea what i use to squat, but it ain’t ma legs.

LEGs=WEAKKKKKKK

476

Where did you get the notion that it’s “Wrong?”

477

K gonna change things up a smidgen, not because it wasn’t working, but because I need to really work on this new squat from, and well, I was sorta bored. I AM also not “meet prepping” so I can do whatever the hells i WANT :P.

95 x 8
105 x 8
115 x 8
125 x 6
135 x 5

Front squats
95 x 6
95 x 6
105 x 4
115 x 3
120 x 2
95 x 6

chin ups

Cable ropey abs

back ext 1 x 25

Leg lifts x 25
bicycle crunches x 50

Felt pretty good even though I am sick and snotty, etc…
Only 2 of my reps felt off when I squatted today! Usually every rep feels different, that is how I knew things weren’t A-okay.
I am excited about this, clearly…

UM life news:
Dating goal for 2012 is looking grim… Eharmony is BULLSHIT, fyi. I’ve gotten like 10 matches in a MONTH and zero messages
DIe world.

oh, but today a boy at the gym offered to spot me while I was squatting
o O

HAHA LOOK AT THAT AWESOME FACE MADE UP!

He was listening to eminem on his ipod too, which is all I would have needed to like him if i was still 14.

ANYWAYyyyyy,maybe I’ll just take myself out on a fucking date. I LIKE TO SET GOALS AND ACHIEVE GOALS, BIOOTCHES.
UM What else…

I think I should prebuy tickets to see django unchained or however you spell it, on christmas day. Might be busy as shit, BUT I MUST MUST MUST see movies the day they come out cause i like to review them in my facebook status. It’s important to me..
