It probably wasn’t wrong in any way, but my head made up that I was doign this crazy chest bounce that I totally wasn’t doing. :slight_smile:

bicep curls 40lbs 2 x 12

Life news:

I have to go shopping today so I can buy a batman lunch kit for work.
I squatted/front squatted/push pressed my kid yesterday and he thought it was the funnest thing ever. He needs to work on keeping his body straighter though :/.

OHH THE HORROR!

I am thinking about titles for my blog and I was wondering if I could call it this:

“Are you there vagina? It’s me, Jenn.”[/quote]

How about “The Spiralling Meat Staircase Of Awesome” or “Jenn’s Smashtastic Power Life”?[/quote]

HAHA!!!

My mom thought both of those were wonderful by the way…[/quote]

Learning together is fun! Nice lifting btw.

Too tired for google translate today, friends.

Hello.

K front squats
So I got to 115 and could not for the life of me motivate myself to do more than one rep. I was thinking, holy hell, this is going to be the most awful workout of my entire life if I can’t even find the strength to do more than 1 @115. Especially since motivation is NEVER an issue for me.
ANyway… sucked it up eventually

Dead.

You know how some mornings you feel like you could just sleep forever and you sorta keep waking up and feeling like you can’t move and falling right back asleep? Then you think you’ve slept in untl like 10 but it’s usally only around 7ish, ha-ha.

I dunno, it’s like the most tired feeling in the world…
That is how I felt my whole workout.

No idea why. Maybe I over masturbated yesterday… There should be no such thing :O!

I remember a long time ago I sorta thought this dude I knew from work was hot, but he didn’t typically give me the time of day. Then he moved to BC and during this time I went from 150lbs to 115lbs and he came back to visit for christmas and he said to me
“Wow, you look really hot now. I might actually wanna do you.”
I semi-punched him and then deleted him off my facebook. It felt very weird to me that I felt MORE disrspected when I was skinny than when I was fat. Like I was mad that guys noticed me, but didn’t care to before.
But then I got fat again and less weak and whatever. I feel like guys should like me just the way I am.

But then there was a thread on T-Nation and people posted saying something like “Blah blah, girls just say guys should like them just the way they are as an excuse to justify being fat.”

I don’t feel like that though. I have a huge fucking appetite and I like to lift heavy shit often. It’s just my lifestyle.
I’m not a cardio bunny and I don’t want to eat salad for supper because that isn’t beefy enough…

I honestly have no idea how I found the energy to lose so much weight.
I did it for a boy though. I was fucking someone who was embarrassed about me so when we stopped fucking I went into hardcore weight loss mode and nothing else mattered.
Then he ended up trying to do me again when he found out how much weight I lost and I got to turn him down, then I decided I was allowed to get fat again.
That is so fucked up.
Guys never hit on me fat, but I like my huge ass and it was so fucking weird for me to be walking around without it for so long.
Like I was always so aware of it. I knew I could go into a room filled with chicks and I would, without a doubt, have the biggest most noticable ass there. When it was gone I felt invisible.

I’m not sure I really have a point.
I like fat guys, why don’t they like me?

BYE

I personally like my woman thick and strong looking and couldn’t care less if they carry a bit of extra fat. Different strokes for different folks.

Just do yo thing gurl…

Hey Spock, looks like you’ve made some pretty good strength gains since the last time i stopped by - great work!

Sounds like your friend from work is a bit of a douche, I agree with above poster, strong women are hot.

funny story i reconnected a few years ago with the first girl i ever hooked up with, turns out she went on to place 3rd in a womens powerlifting championship in romania or something - haha (she’s clearly way stronger than me). (Also she’s married to a woman).

hmmm that was a random tangent.

awkward silence

good shi

Spock I think most guys don’t want their woman to get fat because they aren’t attracted to them anymore. Honestly, I like a girl with a thick butt and she can have a little extra fat but not a lot. Different guys like different things. Like others have said multiple times, you will eventually find someone.

No hello’s today, fuckers! BUSYBUSYBUSY!!!

Holy shitttte! How the hell do people work full-time, and be moms and powerlifters all at the same time?!

Anyway I have decided to go back to the routine I was doing leading up to my meet because it was some of the best training time I have ever done and it’s not as time consuming, which is good right now.

few sets of 8 on seated leg press to pass time

I don’t know how I feel about my oly shoes these days…
Shouldn’t I just make my ankles have good mobility so I don’t need a raised heel? My calf mucles hurt a lot/all the time and I think it’s those shoes. I’ve never had that problem before.

I think I worry so much about form that it stops me from getting stronger.

I was talking to my boss and it turns out she is a HUGE plants VS zombies fan! WOO hOO!!! Also, her youngest son’s name is Gabriel!!!

Oh and lastly, I had one of the most wonderfully odd dreams last night and I want to tell you people about it.

I was in a car driving with some grumpy boy and I started making out with him. The kissing was weird, but he stopped being grunmpy. It was in that moment that I realized I was kissing the love of my life. I felt these true feelings like I was actually kissing THE person of my dreams, the person that I was meant to be with.
It was really nice because I have never kissed a person in real life that’s actually really liked me at all or whtever.
Anyway, we were making out and it was like we were going to move in together or something and be together for the rest of our lives, but then he went into sticker mode.
Sticker mode is from paper mario sticker star where you have to go into sticker mode to like take off doors that are upside down and then they become stickers and you can stick them on properly once you put them in your sticker book or whatever.
So this boy turns into a sticker and I am freaking out trying to get him back into being a human being again, but he remains a sticker.
THen I woke up.
So I mean, it was kinda sad, but kinda cool at the same time.

AHOY MATEY’S!

WELL I DUNNO FRIENDS! There’s something about squats that drives me totally crazy. Yesterday’s sloppy-ness was unacceptable! It’s like there’s nothing more that I want in the whole world than a really strong squat. I feel like I gotta work at it everyday cause it makes me feel super productive. I am gonna add squats to all my workouts somehow, just cause I say so. !

Today I did this
Squats
95 x 8
105 x 8
115 x 8
125 x 8
135 x 8 <–actually did 9 cause one rep felt like one leg was working harder than the other and I thought one wasn’t deep enough which is totally dumb because even me not going deep as usual would still probably be way deeper than I need, LOL.
115 x 10
105 x 10

Really kept control of everything, NO SLOPPY SLOPPY!!

military press
65 x 8
70 x 8

All of that was really fucking boring and made me hate myself for doing all the same shit all the bro’s were doing…

WHATEVVAAAA

Work went well, I got to do the wellness wednesday’s thing so I lead a series of stretches for everyone that no one could really do LOL.

I love target.

I hate a dream that mike tyson raped me and my friend and he was put in jail which, for some reason, was the women’s change room of my gym.
So I went to go check on him behind bars, but he was just in the change room joking around with some other dudes and I was mad.
Also something in that was about the code word being bacon.
Not like code word but umm… what is that word when you’re like dirty fucking someone and you need a word so they know when to actually stop because “don’t stop” doesn’t mean don’t stop or whatever.
FUCK what is that word???

Safe word???

Whatever
Mine and mike tysons safe word was bacon and I said bacon but he didn’t stop or something???
Wow.

TOODLES

BYE

Safe word. I like how you dream.

I once used bacon grease to massage a girl. She was cool with it since she was Paleo.

YELLO

K pretty good, one set of 135 x 6 bugged my ocd cause umm the bar was sorta movey or something? I dunno, my form itself was perfect and not sloppy like every rep felt the same and controlled so maybe the bar movey shouldn’t matter or whatever , k ya

life news :

Um nothing really. Had another great dream where I was in the front row at the Academy awards and I was telling people sitting beside me about the first time that I felt sexually attracted to Robert Downey JR. It was that scene in ironman 1 where he was like pounding that metal and it was all hot and sweaty and muscle jiggly or whatever ya.
Then Robert downey JR got on stage to be a presenter for the next award and i was just exstatic.
I want to add him to my list of people I would do in this world.
Here is my updated list:
ANthony
Robert
JW: Gym edition.

No one else.
I will update this often to keep it current so no one gets confused :slight_smile:
