oh hell yeah! I remember hitting those with all my gear on, helmet, everything, down in the barn when I was 13-14 I cause I read a pro say he always trains in full battle rattle so he's ready for...
Ha! My first weights were red/white/blue vinyl set... with a matching bench. Got it for xmass one year. And I use the word "bench" very liberally. MIGHT have been safe to 200 lbs total 😅
Thank you!
It’s not bad at all the way stuff like DMZ is, but I can tell appetite is starting to take a bit of hit now that it’s been a few weeks of Var and some Tbol more recently.

We are doing the same thing, just at different levels in the game. It's either "This is okay to push today so LFG!!!" or "This ain't ready, go easy, find something else or take a day off..."
As much as I can, I'm definitely skipping things on days that I'm hurting but overall I'm getting a decent amount done. Like today would be a full body with heavy bench but I'm taking a few extra...
Agreed, and if tempted to do something that will make you feel good or gain you some positive attention is not bad either. Do what you enjoy people who think it is douchy or react negatively to...
Glad to hear it!
I do 90% of anything in public in tank tops in the summer, because it’s hot out 🥵 When you have muscles, you just run hotter so you need to. That’s what you call ‘wide privilege’ 😝

Thanks guys, yeah, you're right. I did hit 3400kcal yesterday but according to fitbit burned 3500. Slept so much better though:. I'll drop back down today.
The cognitive side effects were...
Man sorry to hear about the back strain in warmups. But great job sucking it up and still finishing strong. You still put up respectable numbers in spite of the injury. 💪😎👍
Dang, stinks you took a ding right off the bat in warmups - sounds like you actually did peak well, just had the back aggravation & couldn’t display what you are capable of.
That’s a strong...
