    Thor's Thunder: Electrake's Epic Training Tales

    Last week I got my full 4 days in, moving back towards routine. This morning was pretty brutal after the weekend of beer and debauchery at the beer festival lol. Yes, two days after it was over. Squats bench Single arm upright rows straight arms pull downs Working to be more regularly on...

    Thanks man, it's a motivating community to be a part of. I'm so sore today 🤣 getting after it in a few hours, programming has been keeping me up until the wee hours of the morning lately. Probably my biggest hurdle these days, establishing a sleep routine. Basically reverted to the army "sleep...

    What they post online doesn't seem very encompassing, so I'll definitely call ahead. I appreciate the tip!

    Literally a tab I have open right now! I'll be down there working a beer festival this weekend, hoping to swing through.

    You can have my grass from the Boone area. I hate it.

    That would be amazing, I'll keep my eye out for that brand, I can see why you wouldn't buy new $$$

    I actually hit concerts over there pretty regularly, but it is 2 hours. Closer to me in both Asheville and Hickory are used equipment warehouses, hadn't considered them until now..

    I was joking with my buddy that when I stopped lifting I'd been trying to slim down anyway. I just took the crash course this time

    I almost reached out a few times via text, looking through the forums here you've been busy! Hyde is right, I forgot about the bands I have in storage still, I'll have to go snag those tomorrow. I'll check out that brand, there are a few specialized pieces of equipment I'm keeping an eye out...

    Forgot about that one... Still pulling heavy from moving kegs and grain sacks around. Guess I'll do some shopping. Edit: I appreciate y'all still being around, definitely a few names I am happy to see still kicking around.

    I'll post another starting pic here for motivation the beginning of next week. This week is about establishing routine and shaking off the dust. Next week will be about goals and where I want to be.

    The loss was a bit of both, I was down 20ish lbs from the stress of everything, the rest definitely wasn't helped by blowing down lines constantly. It was easy to put down, thankfully, once I got the courage to step on the scale. Thankfully it wasn't ruining the bank accounts and didn't cause...

    In the spirit of the forum, I'll mention I have a pretty hefty SNS stack I'm working in to. A picture is easier than typing, but I'm working into everything as I'm more convinced that I'm sticking with my guns. I've been taking the brain/memory/stress stuff and powders for months anyway, working...

    Hey guys, been a while... Last year was a doozy, up until about a month ago even. I'll spare most of the details, but from the divorce, 2 demanding damn near full time jobs, Helene, brush with nose candy that went too long, and other stuff, I'm back in the saddle. Diet is nailed back in, and I...

    I definitely agree with you, and have been eyeballing some Titan racks and gear. I'm still leaning towards the spare bedroom, I have a buddy coming over to volunteer in the disaster here who is an ex-GC gone engineer, going to propose what gphagan1 was saying and see if I can't get an in person...

    I'm the same way with sweating, I don't do layers well for physically activity. Long term goal at this house is an out building, but I had been toying around with a lean-to type thing off the back of the house, something i can convert into a bbq/smoke shack when I can.

    Keep them coming! I'd reeeeeally like to utilize the space in the basement, but I'm 5'11" ish, and it gets cold af here in the winter. I do roll my rower out there, have a TRX anchor, and multiple tires and sledges. Come to think of it... I've been awfully stagnant since the storm...
