Solid stuff right there natty t- i'm in the same kind of the thing right now w/ my girl. except w/ the breaking up on valentines day thing. Sorry to here that, but I'm sure you'll be alright. You probably got a few lined up just waiting to get w/ you huh? Just keep doing what you got to do and everything will work out how it's suppose to.

thanks man.

it's all good. I think i'm gonna take a girl break for awhile while i fix my body.

less than a month ago we were engaged. she was older, 23, and we had plans to get married, she'd help me pay for college, we'd start building a family when i started grad school...stuff like that. She broke up with me at 4 a.m. valentines morning, after i spent all night up worried sick about her because i couldn't get a hold of her she had been supposed to call me at 11. (she went to 6th street in austin, tx, which is basically one of the biggest party streets in america)


it was more depressing than anything. she's the only person i've let myself get close to since my freshman year in highschool.


I'm back to being alone, which is very much the way i like it.

Damn, bro. Sorry to hear that. February is still fresh enough to get extremely agitated by seeing her, no doubt. Relational hardships can be overwhelming. I've had a couple, and each one worse then the previous, which was a bit maddening and cumulatively depressing, but it will all work out as long as you don't permanently close in.

To put things in a tough love perspective, better to have had this happen now, where the cut is clean, then 5 years into a marriage where property, financies and potential children are intertwined. That's more like a slow & messy tearing away, then a clean cut.

Stay up, bro, and try to stay away from destructive behavior. I've ingested my fair share of reality anaesthetics, and those were some wasted years.

yea man that is one thing i'm happy about. atleast we didn't have the family started and everything.

honestly dude, there was a hot chick lifting weights last night in the weight room and if i didn't spend so much time making fun of guys for hitting on girls while they work out i would have asked her for a spot...

could that have been some of my motivation

[natty texan]

well i did legs today. (i've not really been following my laid out plan =/ )

squats-2 sets of 8 with 225 regular and 2 sets of 8 bench squats.
RDL's- 2 sets of 14 with 135
lying leg curls- 4 sets of 8 with 85
bench step ups- 3 sets of 10 on each leg with 35's in hand.

did abs then headed home.

[natty texan]

I felt good today, started out strong then went flat near the end. I've not got my stamina built up yet. =/

[jdg487]

How did those box squats feel? I haven't done some of those in ages, but they used to be very fun.

[natty texan]

I love em. When I'm stationary on the bench I envision myself in the three point and when i fire off the snap i fire off the bench.

[DR.D]

Nah man I played at Oakridge. That's cool man I had a friend who went to n.d. state too but he got too cold and came back.

welcome to the log fellow texas brother

Don't Mess With Texas! lol

[TexasLifter89]

I've got three schools I'd like to play for right now.
Texas A&m would be the dream school
Texas State
University of North Dakota (all my family is from there, i just got luck enough to be the only one born in Texas)

I go to A&M and have a few friends who play on the team. It shouldn't be too hard if you perform well

really man?

that's awesome. yeah...i'm really hoping to atleast back up at full back. few people i've met love blocking people as much as i do. i'm just not big enough for o line

[natty texan]

just placed my supplement order.

should be here in a few days

[shaddow]

Mind if I tag along?

[natty texan]

Mind if I tag along?

you're very welcome to tag along.

I'll take all the advice/support i can get

[natty texan]

--stole this idea from texaslifter. this is the song that i always start out with when i'm squatting.

okay did back today. (i've not been following my outline at all )

Dead Lifts-5 sets of 5 with the following weights in descending order. 285, 275, 265, 245, 235. it's a 10 pound improvement from last week. I've been getting these intense lower back pumps.
Close Grip T-bar rows- 4 sets of 10 with 90 pounds + whatever the sled weighs
Wide Grip T-Bar Rows-2 Sets of 15 with 45 pounds + whatever the sled weighs
Straight Bar Curls- 3 sets of 10 with 95 lbs. I decided i'm going to do curls every other back day.

I didn't get in untill 8:30 and they kicked me out at 9 so that's all I got done today. I guess I should mention every rep of every set I do is a "negative"...I didn't really know it had a name but anyway i try to explode the weight up and as it's going down i try to count to atleast 5 before it's down...it's what our football coaches made us do...is this okay vol??

[natty texan]
