Got all my gear in this week. Knee sleeves , new wrist wraps , new straps, and a smaller lever belt since I’ve lost some waist size and can now squeeze into a medium. Was nice and carbed up...

Haha, I just picture you tying your shoes like it is a race and finishing with an explosive pull on the rabbit ears!!!! Snap... AHHHH CRAP. Not again!!!!
Yeah, and they honestly do look nicer...
They look pretty good, and I know what you mean about pics not always doing their shoes justice. Definitely good enough to pass in the office with a business casual outfit for sure.
Stinks about...
Those shoes look sharp… the main thing is they are comfortable. I have to have good shoes with all the walking I do or my plantar fasciitis will act up and make me pay.
my feet have really been beat to hell lately. I have some 13+ year old leather cole hahn boots (that half boot/lace up size) that I love but I've had them to the cobbler to be redone twice and...
Yesterday was a relatively uneventful day. I wore my new Xero Glenn's their casual dress shoes for the first time. They fit MUCH better than the Xero Coast which are definitely just a little too...
Glad to see you back on AM and posting! Someone's got to class up this joint.

I thought there was some sort of positive hormonal carryover when you over stimulate the body with a high weight, GH or something. I really can't remember exactly what it was, might even just be...
I don't think I would have used the word backfired after all the talk about him squeezing his glutes while thinking of you. Just sayin!
I am sure of this, there is a lot of carry-over...
Progressive Range of Motion (PROM) is how George Leeman pulled into the 800s, and many guys have used his program for it successfully. I think Terry Todd (RIP) is one of the earlier guys to...
when I was doing them a lot it was in that moment of desperation when I was just willing to try anything to fix my back. I do think they had some positive carryover, but Segs post above reminded...
We are your safe space brother! Also I don't think any of us ever try to post our worst shots. Well unless maybe there is a transformation contest, then bloat it out, don't shave and don't flex...
I did a lot of glute bridges during my rehab. the big 3 for me were the RDL's, very high rack pull Deadlifts to get heavy weight in my hands, which I think stimulates growth/recovery, but safely...
