G’day!

K so for the past 2.5 days I have been suffering from the worst flu I have ever had in my entire life. Could not move, could not Squat!!! I don’t even really remember what happened over the past 48 hours, it’s all such a blur… I know my kid kept making me crafts, loL.

Anyway, I woke up semi-alive again today, so I figured I would squat. It went awfully, but I guess that is to be expected.

125 x 3
140 x 3
150 x 4 <–ugly/knee cavey
I got mad that I didn’t just intetionally do perscribed reps so then I just did perscriped reps
150 x 3 <— slightly less ugly/knee cavey.

I dunno why being sick as a dog automatically makes my knees cave when I haven’t had that issue in forever. What if it comes back with a vengence and I am doomed to shit squat forEVER???

um deadlifts
135 x 10
135 x 10
135 x 10
135 x 10
135 x 12

leg ext. 3 x 10 i think

leg spreader
2 x 12

ya I dunno, that’s all I think. I’m still really out of it.

Does anyone know how long I’ll be weak for post flu? I am actually surprised I could even squat the bar, so that’s a good thing I guess. I was just on such a roll with my rep #'s that it would be a shame to have to be weak for the rest of my life or whatever. I dunno. I think I am going to go play zoo tycoon for a while cause I had a dream about it last night.

BEY

You’ll be fine once you get rehydrated homegirl. I pulled a PR today but shat myself a bit and peed orange after. I don’t think I’ll go back and try squatting until I get a lot of fluids in.

You should stick with HR if your soul can bear it! The good thing is that you can move on to a better position every couple years, making more $$$$ and being able to work from home/have flexible hours with each upgrade.

Haha, I remember my first deadlift day after I had the flu, one of the riskiest workouts I’ve had.

744

Get lots of fluid and protein, and listen to your body. A few days rest won’t derail the gain train :slight_smile:

745

I pulled my first 300 pound deadlift with the swine flu. Valentines day 2011

746

Well how come the flu seems to make people better at deadlifting, but worse at squatting ,LOl?

I remember one time I had a really good deadlifting workout mid-flu a few years back. Yesterday was shameful…

I was going to do my 3x3 bench today, but band pull aparts wore me out, HAHA. I figured benching wouldn’t go too well. I also kept non-stop shitting this AM, so like a girly girl, I did the cross trainer :S.

It was actually kind fun/stress free. I felt like I was cardio-dancin’ to my music.

Cross trainer x 45 mins
15 push ups
back ext. 2 x 12

Maybe I’ll do abs at home later. My arms feel tired typing, I don’t know why.
It seems like everyone on T-Nation is either sick, or injured, or sick and injured, or bummed about their squat, heh. I DO NOT WANT TO BE ANOTHER STATISTIC, whatever that means.
I might just do lame cardio for a few days and then start my 3x3 week over with squatting or something, i dunno. I shoulda stayed home yesterday.
WWJWD
What would jim wendler do.
He clearly has no anxiety issues, he’s like the most laid back dude evah.
He would have not been retarded and lifted after waking up drentched in a pile of his own fever induced sweat
OR
If he did go he wouldn’t have been pissed off about having a bad workout.

Last night I was craving pasta, which is weird, because I fucking hate pasta. I mean, i really hate it. I’d eat anything before I’d eat pasta.
Maybe it was tomato sauce cravings, tomatoes have a lot of nutrients and maybe my sickness needs that or something.

K almost done babbling I just have to tell you about THE BEST DREAM EVER!!!

I know I have said previous dreams were the best ever, but I really mean it this time.
**YES it does have the red hot chili peppers in it ** so fuck off if that annoys you.

K SO i was kidnapped
OH First I’ll start at the beginning so I don’t forgET ANY OF it

I was hanging out with Josh Klinghoffer (their guitarist) and we were running around outside this concert stadium laughing and being best friends. Insert some random weird thing about tomato sauce and someone writing their phone number on a band-aid here*
So then he has to get ready to perform so he runs in the back ally of the stadium and i am running behind him trying to catch up and he gets kinda mobbed by fans.
Then I get kidnapped by the group of people who wrote their phone number on a bandaid.
ANd josh looks behind like where’s jenn (??) :confused:

Then anthony starts freaking out because he was my boyfriend
JOSH WHERE THE FUCK DID JENN GO!!! :expressionless:

…
. I… I dunno… she was right behind me and… :S

AND WHAT?! WHERE IS SHE!!!?!!

He was so upset because he loved (loves) me so much.

So I don’t remember how flea found out where I was, but they all got in this fucking huge monster truck to come resuce me.
It was actually a monster truck version of the hummer flea drove in the by the way video. THe tires were fucking massive, and very hydrolicy. Just bouncin’ along. Anthony was siitting in the back being really pissed off. Chad kicked flea out of the driver’s seat and flea had to ride a bike to come find me HAHAH. Then his bike fell apart so he got a different bike.
ANd he went behind some ally ways and found me before they could come get me and ya
Then I woke up
Which really sucks cause I wanted to have freshly rescued sex with anthony HAHAH.

Oh man, sleeping is great.

K DIE HARD 2DAY

Zoo tycoon news:

So the plot of land I selected for my zoo is beautiful. Lots of trees and some ravines with a great big area of natural water with some nice rock formations in it and what not. The PERFECT spot for my swim shack, which also happens to be the biggest money maker in my zoo. I think I’ve made like 40 000 in profit on that thing. The problem is, it is very hard to build pathway on cliffs and hills, and I want to make access as easy as possible to allow people to get to my swim shack. Well, I was sitting there fiddling with it for an hour yesteray and now I think I made it worse. There used to be like 50 people swimming around down there and now there’s like 10.
Meanwhile, my lions were totally over producing and my polar ber exibit has gone to shit. Fucking landscape modification. You’ll be the death of me!
Oh well, I should have it sorted by the end of today before my kid gets home, then he kicks me off cause it’s his comptuer :S.

He likes to build animal fighting cages.

I used to have a game called Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis, which was essentially a rebranded Zoo Tycoon with dinosaurs. Dinosaur fighting cages were awesome

good.

I don’t know if anyone remembers this, but remember when I told ya’ll some guy semi maybe smiled at me at the gym who was maybe wearing a rolling stones t-shirt at some point or another, and I thought he saw my rolling stones t-shirt and felt that we were soul mates.

Anyway, that guy needs a nick name…
Ummmmmmm

I’ll call him bradshaw HAHHHA, I have no idea why. He kinda looks like his name could be Bradshaw. FIrst or last.

…

So bradshaw always attempted smiling at me and I kinda avoided it for a time, but then we got in this thing were smiling was a regular occurance. Though it never progressed from a smile to a hello.

UNTIL that time i got my haircut and he told me he liked my haircut.
:open_mouth:
A compliment before a hello!
So the comliment paved way for hello’s being a regular occurance.
Now we are in this awkward hello type of situation because we’ve surely progressed past hello’s into how are you’s, but nothing is really paving the way to the how are you.
No close quarters liftings, nothing but quick passings by.

But we see each other daily and past by each other all the time, so it’s like which time will be our hello?
The first time, and then like 10 awkawrd un acknowledged passings by to follow, or the final time, when we’re both near the stretching mats?
Today was awkward because I thought our hello time was about to occur, but then it didn’t, then there was no good time for it to occur later, so we kinda missed the boat today.
THAT makes tomorrow’s hello’s stressful because we may have regressed back to simply smiling.

Men are so complicated.
I usually think every guy in the world finds me repulsive, but I am actually like 98% sure this guy really likes me and is too chicken to do anything about it.

I think I would make a really good girlfriend because I would be so damn appreciative that someone was willing to be my boyfriend I’d really put in a top quality woo-ing effort, ya know?

uMM so I dunno my point really, bradshaw is making me act all goofy and shit, LOL. He doesn’t make my legs feel heavy like JW:Gym edition though. JW Gym:Edition turns my legs to rubber and makes my heart feel like it’s going to beat out of my chest.

N E WAY

If I remember correctly, you could drive the jeep yourself in 3rd person. If dinosaurs escaped you could also tranquilize them from your helicopter. I’m gutted that I gave it away in my early “get away from the computer and move around a bit more” fitness stages.

754

He’s probably interested but it is very hard to progress a relationship in the gym. Most people assume that everyone wants to be left alone in the gym. He probably finds you as complicated or moreso than you find him.

I’m coming up on my two-years-since-i-had-sex iversary, so I’m kinda depressed, I guess.
I don’t think I ever made it to the two year mark before, 18-19 months ya, but two years. That’s a long time to not have even touched a member of the opposite sex, or to not have even touched the opposite sex’s member.

Maybe I’ll buy myself those batman chucks as an anniversary present, but that shoppoholics show told me that I need to learn how to deny myself things I want or I’ll have an addiction problem.

UMM I saw TMNT lego at the store the other day :O! It looked really cool. I want someone to build awesome lego shit with, and then we can have lego wars and stuff like me and my brother used to do. Gabe sucks at playing lego. We build the thing, then it’s done. I want my wars, I want my story lines!!

Oh yesterday I did 30mins cardio/chinups/push ups/ab circuit/back ext.
