250x1 ok just found out THIS is my max really haha I thought since I could get 235x5 I could go 265, but it took me 3 attempts and a guy mentioning something hurtful to me to get me to do this. Über PR HEREfirst time with 250 and didn't give up, not ashamed I couldn't get the 250x3 hehe, I'll adjust to make this my max for the 5/3/1 week to see if I can get more than 1 rep...bear with me guys I know it's stupid to be happy about a fail or such a low weight on dead lifts

I loved this workout haha and I feel like I didn't f*ck my back up maxing out
Form-X notes:
-Same results, though I feel like the recovery between sets is improving a lot too, might be a benefit over prolonged use, but what I do notice even better every workout is mind muscle connection.

Yes thanks for asking man, I had a new insulin pump sent to me, but the whole night wait was horrid as i was up every three hours to take a corrective shot.

Great attitude to have!
FixedThanks man, i try to keep things on the shaker cup half full side.
Any of you guys in the army know whats necessary to join and serve?...Just wondering, because most likely I will try to join sooner rather than later...(Not joking...completely serious...)
When I joined it was High School diploma, basically clean police record (some things can be overlooked or waivered, DUI's aren't good.) Passing asvab (Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery), and a pass on your physical. I think it should still hold true.

What does de Asvab thing mean?
It's a test that you take, it determines how smart you are already about a bunch of stuff like electric circuits and a bunch of rudimentary science and math.
Graduated valedictorian, almost an engineer in college, i'm not as built as you guys but great shape...arrested once for wreckless driving and went to court and had it removed since it was first offense...Think I can get it?...Its my last resource I got...if not I'm gonna need another back up plan...
Yeah you will be fine, but seriously, I edited my post. Get a kush job, they all pay the same, and to be honest you can get promoted way faster in non combat arms positions, plus it's easier on your body. All my buddies who were in for days had bad knees elbows and stuff from long ruck marches and lack of sleep, pluss stress over time.
It'll toughen me up...Might be my way to finally face some stuff in my life again...thanks bud been of great help.
Not a problem man, ya let basic training toughen you up. Then report to your job behind a desk for 1.5 hr lunches and breaks to go lift in the AM. You will thank me in 10 years when you're a Sergeant First Class making bank, driving a sick whip cause you haven't paid rent or for food since you can remember joining.
I don't think they would let a guy with an unfinished diploma at college be Sergent First Class...but the 1.5hr lunch break plus break times in the AM to train does sound tempting...What do you do in an office job at the army?...will I get to serve in the Middle East? I got some Karma to pay...And seriously I am tired of carrying around so many demons...some time in Iraq might serve as time to make up for many sh1t in my life...
They definitely would, SFC is an NCO rank you can get well paid and well respected without a college diploma. In an army office job you just do filing or there are all kinds of office jobs tbh I would do post office because the hottest chicks worked in the post office in Iraq, or do something with aviation, but on the ground. It's a boatload of work to become a pilot but the dudes on the ground in aviation just chill pretty much. Their flight suits were always super clean when I saw them. Pretty much everyone in the army can get in on a deployment. The greatest thing about being there as someone with a desk job is you work inside, you don't have to be out in the heat or cold or sun for days at a time. The bases over there are probably like mall of america by now. I left Iraq in 2005 and we had built a huge PX and BK Subway and Pizza Hut on my dirthole base by then. You could get a sick setup in the Green Zone or you never know I haven't been for awhile but I always said if I had to go again I would be a poagie (non combat arms soldier).

Right :blink: bulking timeYes but get to 155 before basic training bc I hear u lose AT LEAST ten pounds from all the activity and lack of sleep/food.
I have thought about it...got some major hook ups for joining border patrol...thought about it too.Go be a cop bro![]()
Then I guess I do have a shotIt ain't the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog!
