Nice of you to drop in Frenchie 
Huh. So when the rest of us get grey hair, it gets lighter instead of darker. Sure wish I had your condition, would save me money on hair dye.

I think it has more to do with my father. When he was a kid, his hair was white blond, but it turned black - I mean black-black, very black - once he hit his teens. I think I got some of that, but in slower motion. The grey is overtaking the process though.

All I had time for. Been a chorehorse all day and went to a fine calamari dinner with my brother-in-law and my wifeās sister. Iāll finish the presses and pullups tomorrow.
Debating whether to kick the weight up or start doing doubles. Original plan was 8 doubles and then 8 triples and then increase while going back to singles, but Iām itching to boost the poundage.
Might be a good idea to stick to the plan given that you are coming back from an injury.

You are right. Slow and steady, then.
slow and steady for the win
8ās are good volume.
love me some good calamari.
You should have asked curling guy if you could work in.

I wouldāve, but he was using more weight than I can curl right now (SOB). I did do some seated incline curls that day, 35ās 5x3 and my biceps are still sore. So I thought I would sneer at him for being stronger than me.

Yeah. Like when I want to use the squat rack, but the guyās using it for curls . . . and heās the biggest guy in the gym . . . heās curling what I bench . . . what do I do?

Kick him in the shins, and run home to Momma?
Seriously though, I think a guy has earned the right to curl in the squat rack IF he needs to use the big wheels. Itās the pissants with the two tens on the bar that annoy me; and thatās not a reference to the weight being used, but to the lack of consideration.

Did this at lunch hour. Kept the rest periods shorter than usual since I didnāt want to take a whole bunch of time and wanted a shower after. Squats felt really good and I may settle on 265 or 275 for the next round. Except for the time compression nothing felt too difficult.
nice snatch! not sure whyā¦ but you looked kinda like house in that vid.
i always thought that blonde people got white hair as they aged whereas dark haired people got iron grey. i really really really really want snow white hair when i get oldā¦ but figured iād be more grey since my hair is brown. but maybe that is not true??

Did this tonight because there will be no time tomorrow. Curls hurt my wrists. Too much time on the keyboard and not enough in the gym.
to much time on the keyboard hunched over like quasimodo for me.

My wifeās hair is brown, but she is skipping the grey step. She has striking bands of White in her hair at her temples and crown when she chooses not to color it. Itās really quite attractive, but a disadvantage in her employment.
