It’s been raining daily here to where you couldn’t mow - everyone’s grass is jungle mode. Today is dry & sunny before more rain this weekend though, so today’s mowing day for sure!
the past week we went from hot sun, to warm rain for a couple days, which the plants needed. then wind, which blew the plants dry, before we came back to hot direct sun. which means less scorching...
We're also getting the heat & humidity here in the northeast. 94 yesterday, 93 today and it stormed something crazy last night too. So it's just like walking out into a steam room.
I honestly have a hard time tracking this weekend, all I know is everything is sore today, lol.
Friday was a fridge day, wife found a great replacement for the "beer fridge" (which we actually...
I hear you on the reps!
Honestly it's a bit of a mindset shift. For decades I always ran bro split stuff and did 10 reps as the goal, then when I switched to more strength focused work lately...
My drake duck is on top of the hen twice a day minimum. Often at 2am. I wonder if I can get blood work done on him, dudes gotta be blastin something right?
In my opinion, you should blast as fast as you can through that low level work (if it’s part of the prescribed 5/3/1 sets) if you can. If it’s just suggested warmup though, I’d say just do what...
took two days but squat doms are here. holy moly.
I should be deadlifting today, but not sure schedule will allow. Tomorrow I have a tight window to build a run for my meat birds. they're at 2...
You're starting calculations look good @Dustin07 - with maybe only bench having started a bit higher comparatively than your other lifts, but as long as you're hitting the numbers no issue there!
I get competitive too when I look over and see someone working on the same or similar exercise I’m hitting, especially Bench and OHP. Ha, and when I’m on a deload week, like this week, I have to...

Bench 295 rather than 305
OHP 185 rather than 205
After one cycle and into week 1 of Cycle 2, the...
I don't subscribe to height identity, you should not either. I am under 5'8, and I am just a man.
If we are thinking positively you are a man who puts his family first, and takes care of...
Thanks man, sometimes I need my AM bros to prop me up! [emoji38] Was there yesterday and I took the shirt off (yes, I'm one of those dudes that generally keeps his shirt on in the pool unless I've...

Yes definitely; at least here in the Midwest skinny fat or outright fat is the norm for a dad at the pool. So if you can show any muscle tone or just not be as fat, you are on the fitter half of...
I just keep a gallon of salted crystal lite in the fridge at all times, which I pounded through this weekend. and lately I'll just eat a packet or a couple of salt at work and wash it down with my...
