I guess I'd say its expensive to me compared to my life 5 years ago. But food in general has went up.

2 years ago for me lol. Least I don't spend a ton on supps anymore. Pretty excited for the diet change thou.

I admit eating all that fast food was getting to me

Yeah, I had never heard of it before I got back. It's new down here (well, newish). I shopped at Sams club when I was in NC.

Aldi was the place I thought poor people shopped when I was a kid. Then I grew up and realized that's where all the smart people shop. It's honestly cheaper than the PX
 
jimbuick said:
Tax free, yes. Cheap, no. It was way more expensive to shop at the PX than to shop at Wal-Mart while I was in.

True but it's about location, too. It's cheap for up here where the cost of living is retarded.

If it costs me $5/lb of beef at the grocery store and $2/lb of beef on base, it's cheaper!
 
Our commissary is way cheaper. Got to love the ground turkey for 1.00 a pound and a 3 lb thing of pork chops for 2.99.

I wouldn't be able to compare, I don't eat ground turkey or pork, so I don't know the cost there.


But beef, eggs, milk, chicken breasts, etc. weren't cheaper than Sam's.

Aldi has all the food I need lol.


I don't get too fancy with food. Beef, sauce, noodles, rice, chicken, milk, cheese, eggs.

I'm gonna laugh when the Patriots come back. When there is a whole quarter left, and only a 20 point lead, the Patriots haven't lost. More evidence of your lack of football knowledge.

Your still stuck on that comeback earlier in the year? Have you watched this game? Pretty one sided.

Under 10 to go, broncos up by 13, confident as can be.

If your so set on the pats comeback, let's wager

I'm watching it right now.


I'm not saying the pats are going to win, I'm saying you can't say any game with Tom Brady starting is over until the clock runs out.


I want Denver to win, I said at the beginning of the season that I expected a Seattle v. Denver SB so that's what I want to see.

I'm not knocking Brady, but when I said that, they would need 3 scores.

All that with under 10 to go?

That means some lucky onsiders or some quick stops on d which they just haven't done.

Not impossible but ridiculously unlikely. Especially against a beast like the broncos .

Been over for awhile now jimmy.

I understand where you were coming from. By the pats just didn't look good even on scoring drives, and the clock was against em.

Which is why I like baseball so much more. No time limit.
 
Tricep pain. By the elbow. Felt it from 95 lbs.

145x5
155x5
185x6.
145x14.

Not happy. Easily could have gone more. But past parallel it was a bish.

Trying flairing a little to relieve tension but my shoulder didn't like it, so I just stopped fuvking round with it.

Ill bench again on Friday or Saturday.

Good news is shoulder health. Continues to improve. So that's awesome.

S tbar 90x10x2
A100x7
100x8
100x7
100x7
Face pulls 3x10
50. 3x12

Superset tricep band push down and bicep cable curl. Just to get blood flow.

Meh workout. Pleased with temp and tbar row, not pleased with tricep.
 
Another good thing is my arch is way better. I've used my boss technique to get set up, and I really like it. Definitely feel more leg drive.


Used a different one last week, it wasn't bad, but I engage my legs more using this method to get set up better.
 
The elbow pain could be you over tucking. I noticed last time we benched you tucked to the point your hands were bent way back...which in turn could possibly throw things out of whack.

Could be. It felt bad doing those tricep rope with you last week, but stupidly I kept going.

But I do gotta flair a little more. Just hesitant to do so cause I have no shoulder pain benching anymore
 
Move your grip in if that's the case.
 
Sean1332 said:
lol that's what I call my close grip. Maybe that extra rotation in the shoulder was causing your past issues with your shoulder?

I honestly think it was not keeping retracted and a bb elbow flair that was my issue.
