ANYWAYS…Im back from my vacay and I went 3-0 in arm wrestling and 1 - 0 in free style wrestling, as drunk fat guys and natives kept on challenging me[/quote]
Welcome back!
Yeah what is it with the foreigner arm wrestling challenge thing?
I kept getting challenged in Turkey a few years back. We were buying a rug and we’d haggled the salesman down from £800 to £500 when he said we could have the rug for free if I could beat his brother in law in an arm wrestle. Obviously he was pretty confident I’d lose. I wasn’t keen because I hadn’t even seen this guy, but he ran out excitedly and got him from another shop so I didn’t have much choice. I was expecting some 7ft tall hairy foreheaded behemoth, but he was a normal sized guy, bigger than me, but he didn’t look like he lifted. Anyway, surrounded by a group of locals, I just managed to beat him and then the filthy, greasy, lying Turkish bastard laughed uncomfortably and said he’d just been joking all along. Fucker!! So I paid the full £500 for the rug and had a sore shoulder the rest of my holiday.
Are you looking forward to your DOMS?
Son of a bitch! I wouldn’t of bought the rug on principal!
x2 on the sore shoulder I don’t know the last time I arm wrestled anyone!

Well shit, now I’m going to have to try weighted pushups.
And you incline numbers are redic. If my flat bench numbers get to that level I’ll be thinkin I’m the boss.
I’m lol’ing at the thought of me arm wrestling Matty. That won’t work too well lol
Glad you’re back <3
I always thought I had something going on with pushups… until I saw your video. I’m no longe rimpressed with myself.
Glad you’re back ya big bastard!
damn. i thought i was bad ass for weighting planks. weighted push-ups… hmm… maybe i should give 'em a try.
You will now be known as Abercrombie to me from hear on out.
your vacation sounds like a blast, minus the cutty sun barf episode.
and like giterdone said above, your incline bench is ridiculous. No shoulder pain the day after these?
Gosh, Matty, I can’t imagine why people aren’t lining up begging to arm wrestle you.
Git - Lol, ill be trying those box squats because of your vid.
Nikki - There you are! whats good!?
Kent - My pushups are easier since my gut prohibits me from going all the way down lol.
Alexus - The thought of weighted planks make me soil myself:)
Print - Why? cuz of my outfit! shit I had no clean clothes! BTW you were like 25 when the Jets won their superbowl why the fuck do you not have a log up in here!
Yonkey - Its odd but flat benching kills my shoulder but inclines feel great.
Cav - It must of been beer muscles or something but everyone wanted to challenge me, after declining I said fuck it…and the pressure was on!

NOTES: Another overall good session, I will go for max weight on the MP’s next week gonna try the vaunted and fleeting 225 next week, gonna lower the reps before so I have enough in the tank. Im also starting again with the idea of some sort of squat movement everyday I train, Front Squats today…ehhh…but my quadzzz got swole yo!
Started my new gig today for the next few weeks because of training my hours are 8 - 4…SWEET!
Ill catch up with y’all later!
Great push ups, hell great lifting. When going for the max mp, go a little narrower than usual unless your hands are usually very narrow. Hope that made sense.
Absolutely does Harry, thanks!
