Yeah we love animals too. My male Akita that got killed by the copperhead snake was $3000 and my black female Akita was $2000. Yeah they’re not cheap, but we also have two little Chiweenies...
Good way to get practice is maybe 10 sets or so for 1 rep with maybe some where between opener and 1st attempt. Typically my jumps at meets will be 5 to 7% depending on the day I am having. From...
You will want to get an opener on the books but I wouldn’t sweat obsessing what your 2nd and 3rd lifts are going to be . Do what feels right when you are there. Adrenaline is going to add...
Thanks, yeah I guess the thing I'm still trying to wrap my head around is coming into this prep - being "cold" / unpracticed on a lot of these lifts I hit 205x1 on squats and 195x1 on bench. But...

thats a big cat! you gotta post another pic like next to a chair or something so I can grasp his size better. My cattle dog (heeler/collie) is about 24lbs for reference, lol!!
The pricing...
This is one of our male Maine Coon cats. He weighs 22 lbs is 42” from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail, no fat, just muscle. I’ve had people ask if he was mixed with Linx, and I’m like...
that probably about right I'd have to do some digging but I'm guessing it was pre-covid last time I really pushed oly so I was probably anywhere from 176-183 at that point. but man it feels great...
I haven’t done clean and jerk since my early 40s. And the most I ever did back then was 255, which that’s the most I ever attempted too, but I was a big boy, so you doing 270 and probably weighing...
I love seeing a guy get three wheels on an oly bar for a clean and jerk. 315 is heavy enough where you are starting to get some whip in the bar and if your timing is off and the whip is coming...

Haha, well the Xero Coasts have the set it and forget it elastic laces. You tie them the way you want them once, the laces are elastic and so you can get them to where they are snug, but can just...
It sure would be nice if they could MRI both in the same session for one fee!
Looks like a good session to me! Rear delt swings have always been a fav! So brutal!
I love that your daughter...

Fingers crossed 🤞 🤞 I'm just finishing week 1 of cycle 6 myself today/tomorrow. But so far it feels like I'm hanging in there!
I think I'm a bigger headcase than some people in this regard...
Yeah man, his approach is absolutely spot on with how to progress smart and safe and avoid injuries. I mean this is my third week of my 6th cycle and weight is still going up, and I don’t plan on...
too cool, congrats!!!! reading your summary of your past PRs and the rebuilding had me thinking so much about Jims approach and what we are doing on this 531, next cycle you're going to come back...
Thanks Kleen…..and that is so true. I never really said it, but at the end of 2024 all the way up until I started this log I was beginning to wonder if I would even be able to bench 225 again. And...
