Tomorrow is going to be worse.. no shovelling but two leg sessions...

My lats are on fire.
 
Wow!! Pure insanity!! I bet they are!!
 
2-a-days?! We're going to see you in the next Olympic Games holding the torch for canadia! Haha. Great work man!!!
 
You're not human, Wasme! Crazy workouts in crazy weather!!!!!
 
I have been following your log for a long time and i really admire your will to train, especially your morning runs! I find your log very motivational.

I will be moving to the GTA in August and i could use your help about where to get gym equipment. I have found a place called keystone fitness in Vaughan that sells used equipment. Do you know anything about them? It's early to be thinking about all this but i like to plan ahead so that my budget stays tight.
I don't know in which area you are, but i will be near Woodbridge, if you know of any good gyms around there I would be very thankful.
I look forward to your 5/3/1 setup as i am also doing 5/3/1 currently.
 
2/days of the same muscles is insane.

Alright man.. fellow Canadian! Where are you moving from? Definitely can send you in the right direction. I will check out Keystone for you. I get a fair bit of my stuff from a place called Fitness Avenue (Downsview/Yorkdale area). Prices are great, and the equipment is legit. Good idea to plan ahead, especially when you want your budget to stay on point. Know where Woodbridge is and will look into some gyms for you as well, I am basically in the 401/DVP area. If you want feel free to PM me.

Thanks for the kind words, great to have you along ... thanks for speaking up!

I don't know how you can manage these workouts!

My plan is a home gym, but it will take me a couple of months to set it up as i have a lot of things to take care of first (schools, drivers license, furniture to name a few). I will be joining a gym only for a short time so don't spend a lot of time looking for me.

I am moving from Athens Greece, can't wait to start shovelling snow for cardio!

In a couple of months i'll ask you about where to supplements.

Thanks for your help and good luck walking today.
 
DAMNZZZZZZZ Killer sessions brother and on top of 2 a days snow work smh. True beast is always here man. I wish I could shovel some but no so lucky In bama. I think Kat would have better chance in SC then us down here. It keeps toying with us but barley missing us. Hope everyone has a good weekend. Keep ole pack in prayers. I work at Homeland Security and if this Gov shut down happens, I could be without a job til they reopen. Plus since were contract, we don't get pack pay :(

I work for the Gov't up here too pack (in IT) ... the union is negotiating our new contract and it is going poorly... threat of a strike looms... awesome for working out, crappy for keeping our roof over my gym equipment, errr I mean kids..

Edit: You and Kat are welcome anytime to come shovel my driveway... in fact once your done we'll sit on the back deck in our shorts, sandals and hockey jerseys with a beer eating one of Kat's cakes!
 
Slacker!! You should do some leg pressing or something like that on leg days...lol

You must be taking some pain killers or acupuncture prior to these workouts. Not sure how you pulled off that 2nd workout...

LOL, Gotta tell ya Brian, at the end of the 3rd giant set.. I didnt know if I could do the 4th but then thought its only a few more reps.. and got through it. Total mental battle. Legs, and glutes from top to bottom hurt today.
 
Man that sounds so good that I actually don't mind if it shut downs lol. Beer with hommie, shorts in cold weather Kat's cake or heck just having Kat round is good enough for me lol.

Thanks Hyde! (and Puccah)...

Eating has been a problem, as I've been starving all the time and hasn't been the cleanest that's for sure. Will really try and clean things up next week though. As for sleep, I am exhausted. Had a 'quick nap' at my desk at work yesterday.
