Just the IndoBoard flick from earlier
 
I love working with balance boards! It certainly can knock you down a peg or two..... when I was working at the hockey training center some of the kids wanted to see me attempt what we had them doing (i.e. squats on the balance boards), I jumped on and did the same thing you did, they laughed, I got mad and banged out 20 reps perfect form for them... completely out of spite. :D

I dig the shooter tutor in the background!

Day 80​

Summary
Well...here we are again. The reason I say that is I think I need to create a new log again. This one was in training for my boys arrival and it turns out....they're here!!! I know i've already posted pics and you already KNOW they're here....but I wanted to say it again :).

I am going to continue this log until I think of a slick name for the next one....but I sure hope people decide to come on in. Today I played a bit of tennis for my workout but that was about it. I am turning it up a notch starting tomorrow. No joke...i'm really getting into gear now.

Rx 2 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*

Back on track as of today. Ate great today. No more messing around PERIOD. 1-2 cheat meals a week and THATS IT.

What Tomorrow Holds
I am looking at a run/jumprope in the AM, and either some tennis or KB's in the PM.

He's so PICky
Here's Aiden enjoying his rest time

1. They are both over 6lbs at birth so thats awesome! Aiden is 8 ounces heavier right now though.
2. Aiden's hair is actually thicker than Riley's if you can believe it, haha. Its pretty darn intense! Both of them have also opened their eyes at me already and farted on me so that was nice
3. Mom is healthy and tired.
4. No diapers ALONE yet....but I did help with both and put some bacitracin on them and such.
5. They are like...amazing. Aiden sleeps A LOT (I know all babies do...but this is different). he falls asleep while eating, haha. Riley is great...he has a lot of gas, like...a lot. Aiden likes to spit up a good deal too.
 
Lil Irish baby Deuces! That's awesome, man.

That's a great scene from Pursuit of Happiness. Hard work, self reliance, and a basic moral understanding. That guy is proof that that's all it takes in the United States.

You're totally right....I love that scene, and that movie for that exact reason. You put your all into something and believe it...and it's going to happen for you. Screw anyone who says differently.
 
I just had a real good workout and now im showering up and gonna spend some time with my boys. I think it's definitely going to be a good day :approve:
 
Congrats Chuck !! :D

MST is going to have to start making formula :p :lol:

I'm happy for ya bud !

That brings up my question. When are you gonna start putting protein in their formula? :wave2: They look great Chuck. Congrats again.

haha I have to see if they are lactose intolerant first so I know what kind of protein and brand to go with...duh.

actually if you saw them, they don't need protein right now...lol. They are big for twins and trust me, also strong!
 
And if Riley is already farting like you say, more protein might be a bad idea. :)

Day 81​

Summary
Sorry I didnt get this up last night everyone. Some people asked me if I wanted to get a celebratory drink and I decided to meet up since it's been ages since i've seen them. Only had 2-3 drinks so I didn't KILL yesterdays hard work....and I will get back to work today.

Yesterday morning I had a fun weight session and then I went to see my boys and then I hit an hours worth of tennis. I am going to try and sneak in as many "two a days" as I can to try and work this into shape faster. We'll see how it goes!

The Session
BB Power Clean
2 sets x 6 reps x 85lbs
BB Power Clean + Overhead Press
2 sets x 6 reps x 85lbs
BB Deadlift + Shrug
4 sets x 6 reps x 165lbs
Muscle Snatch
4 sets x 6 reps x bar weight
Unilateral Leg Work
Rx 1 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*
Rx 2 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*
Rx 3 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*

Then...

Tennis Rally
60 minutes

Nutrition
100% clear and awesome until the few drinks at the end of the night. No harm, No foul as far as I see it. It was worth it to see some old pals.

What Tomorrow Holds
Am workout is looking bleak since it's already 10:30 and I have to get showered, eat, and out the door to get over to the boys at noon. Definitely "something" for the PM though.

He's so PICky
Here is Aiden right after he pooped on my hand...and then passed back out in my lap.

Day 82​
Summary
Well since I didnt get to do my online stuff last night because I went out, I ended up not having an AM workout today because I was doing internet stuff instead. I will be doing a weight workout tomorrow morning for sure though. I did play some afternoon tennis today which was good, before it started raining that is. We got about an hour in but I was hitting GREAT and I wish we could have kept going.

The Session
Tennis Rally
60 minutes
Unilateral Leg Work
Rx 1 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*
Rx 2 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*
Rx 3 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*


Nutrition
On point all day. Only issue being that I waited too long after waking for my first time eating (about 3 hours)....but I did have some aminos in there so hopefully it worked itself out.

What Tomorrow Holds
Certainly an AM weights workout and to see my beautiful boys, then who knows for the PM.

He's so PICky
Anyone that wishes to buy me this skateboard, feel free.

Day 83​
Summary
Since no one has tried to give me any creative names just yet for a new log....I guess I am going to run this one into sunday (end it on Father's Day), and then Monday begin a new one. I hope people will come follow along...I could use the support.

Today I was very happy being with my boys and then I had a good KB workout. I wanted to workout in the AM and run in the PM...but I just had too much to get done this morning. I was outrageously sweaty and ravenously hungry by the time this workout was done. Maybe because I used some Crushing Punch Ragnarok beforehand...and I rarely use Ragnarok instead of Cre-02 anymore...PLUS I normally go caff free and this was the caff version.

The Session
24kg Kettlebell Swing
4 sets x 10 reps
24kg Kettlebell Power Snatch
3 sets x 10 reps - right arm
3 sets x 10 reps - left arm
24kg Kettlebell High Pull
3 sets x 8 reps - right arm
3 sets x 8 reps - left arm
24kg Kettlebell Power Clean
3 sets x 10 reps - right arm
3 sets x 10 reps - left arm
Unilateral Leg Work
Rx 1 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*
Rx 2 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*
Rx 3 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*


Nutrition
Super solid all day today. Its still early in the night...but I have dedicated myself to doing well. I wont be missing tonight. Tomorrow I am going to a "interesting foods" buffet....lol, but I won't do bad there either. I think I am trying frogs legs for the first time tomorrow night.

What Tomorrow Holds
I want to get out on the courts if the weather is permitting...and if not, definitely either some weights or some yoga or DMC.

He's so PICky
Riley and I just kinda chillin out

Day 84​
Summary
Well firstly, thanks to everyone that has so far said they'll be following along in my new log. I havent yet thought of a name...but im not overly concerned really, haha.

Yesterday was wild in many ways. I played 2 hours of tennis which drained the crap out of me, and then I ate terribly. I would say both of my cheat meals for the week were wrapped up in yesterday. First was that "odd" foods buffet where I tried things like KimChi and Frogs Legs for the first time ever. Most of the food was good...but yeah, not great for you. Then ended up going out again just to get to hangout with my best friend and his girlfriend...but they wanted dinner so we went to Red Robin (Yummmmm) and I got a burger that I barely touched....but I drank 2 margaritas, haha.

I am doing this update now, taking a shower, spending time with my boys, figuring out a workout for today, and then who knows what...lol. All I know is spending money is not an option for a few days.

The Session
Tennis Rally/Volley
120 minutes
Unilateral Leg Work
Rx 1 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*
Rx 2 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*
Rx 3 - 60 seconds *ea. leg*


Nutrition
Bad. Just bad.

What Tomorrow Holds
My shoulders and upper back are still a tad sore from the awesome KB workout from 2 days ago...so not totally sure yet.

He's so PICky
Definitely had Frogs Legs for the first time. They didnt really taste like anything though. A lot of people have said it tastes like chicken...but I was expecting that and honestly, it didnt taste like anything at all.
Invalid Link Removed

I also tried KimChi for the first time and I really really liked it. Very hot but good taste. I'd eat it again today if I had any, haha

Kimchi and frod legs? Chuck's going east Asian on us.

Click to expand...

Ive wanted to try KimChi for a long long time now....and the Frog's legs were inspired by watching Andrew Zimmern. I said out loud "i'd try them" and my buddy didnt think I would and he said "if you do, I will too"...and that was that :)
 
I've heard that frog legs are very hard to cook right. Supposedly, a very light breading and frying them is the best way to have them. Emphasis on "light breading." That's just what I'm told. I've never had them before. I remember I'd always go to the supermarket with my mom when I was little and liked to look at them. I always thought it was so weird that people ate frogs. Even when I was little I had thoughts like, "Only a poor person would have to eat frogs." - Aren't they down-home, Southern, on the bayou type food?
