5 am rolled around and I just rolled over. Get to it tonight.
KMC, when I first read your post I thought you wrote,‘Jwilly is stupid for training that hard that early’. Then I realized you wrote ‘stud’. But I still laughed.

Sometimes I think I am stupid for getting up so damn early! But I’m no stud. I have been getting up early ever since graduating college for work. Now I get up 20 minutes earlier and report to work 20 minutes later. Plus I dont sleep worth a crap, so its not a big deal for me.
I have a lot of respect for people like you JW. I can get up early for work or to take the kids to hockey but getting up and lifting is entirely different. I’m sticking with calling you ‘stud’.
All I do early is get on the hamster wheel, I have had some stints lifting early but it just doesn’t work well for me. I am much more of an afternoon lifter these days.
i used to lift at 5am up to a couple years ago, then my schedule changed. now, when i try to lift in the morning, my lower back/hips are super tight, and I can’t get them to loosen up. all i can do early is drag my sled…
JW isnt stupid, but that is a funny typo, I dont know how I used to get up at 4 and run, do hills
other equally obnoxious shit go to wrestling practice etc.
I am getting soft, really I have NO grip in the morning and am too tight.
kmc
Funny, I can get up and do an hour of cardio, walk miles, go fishing, etc., but I can’t lift a damn thing until late morning or afternoon.

You left out the most important part! Did it kick your butt?
…another crazy one…
Eco, that is a sick day of training. The 265x12 bench and bent row alone is hardcore. Must have felt pretty spent after that day.
nice work bro!
nice work bro!

I second that! More d@mned complexes! And your’s don’t look any kinder than j-willys. Glutttons for punishment.
Great work eco…
Thanks guys. Last night did kick my ass. I’m not losing weight any more to look pretty. I went to the doc after years of not going. I was 276 lbs, high BP and all my blood numbers are very bad. So now I have fear pushing me into shape. I go back in three months and see where things are then.
9/5
complex first wave 6 reps, second 5 reps down to 1 rep.
1.dead lift
2.RDL
3.BB row
4.clean
5.front squat
6.push press
7.squat
8.GM
The first 2 rounds I used 95lbs the rest I used 135lbs. Good (tough) workout.
I have faith you will exceed your goals.
Thank you Dan. I feel very motivated.
More stuff I did today:
- a lot of tire dragging-forwrds,backwards and sideways
some of the following:
2.sprinting
3.stone carry
4.sledge hammer
I may have done to much today. I’m pre-medicating with motrin before bed.

They’ll have to rename this forum to,‘Hot Guys Over 35’.
MM, I’m not as good as you at multi-tasking - staying strong while getting svelt. I’ll have to get all ripped then get the bench,squat and dead numbers back up. You’ll be benching twice your bodyweight in no time.
