An Iron marathon is where you take an empty a barbell (empty in my case) and you do one curl, then pass the bar to your partner who does 1 rep then passes it back and you do 2 then they do 2, and so on and so forth. You work your way up to 10 reps at one time and then back down to 1. Those last 3 sets (3,2,1) are rough and your feel like a giant Puss for struggling with 3 reps. I love it!

Here are some different shots from my workouts/pup walks this past week. Will do official wrap up later Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I would suggest the undisputed series for pump movies, especially the third. Yuri boyka (character name) is an absolutely bad ass Russian. If watching him won't make you want to work out I don't know what will that is Yuri Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Merchandising, merchandising, where the real money from the movie is made.

only when you blink

Tell him that you are actually identical cousins. see what he says then

Just used said anger to DESTROY my deadlift. Was supposed to pull 210 for AMRAP (figured 2or 3) hit it for 6! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don't today took a turn for the worst just found out from my manager I've been placed on probation at work because a customer screwed up their deposit and is blaming me because that customer has a lot of money they're taking actions against me the customer responsible for their screwup well I'm on my want to break now and I am going to the gym to lift anger switch directly into the iron no chance to stew at sll Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You are awesome you know that? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

120 I got up for 2. Could have gotten a third maybe but I didn't want to try for it and drop it on my head. I am using both. I calculated my deadlift and Bench but used my actual OHP. I want to be the guy in the AF that can out run or out lift a marine (and out fight once I get into a martial arts school once im in). That is all mainly cause I want to be the exception to the rule you are talking about. Throwing the Iron around makes me feel amazing! My supervisor is being a Royal B* today, however my response in my head is "Yep and I can outlift you and your husband combined. WHAT NOW!?!?!?!?!?" hehe my inner monolog sounds alot like a 14 year old boy that is trying to be bigger than he is. *note to self: help inner self get through puberty so he is more intimidating*

Okay I can say with 100% certainty that 5/3/1 works to increase your strength QUICK! I am on week 3 of my 5/3/1 and today was Press day. My 1RM at the beginning was 105lbs. I screwed up my math bad today. I calculated the bar at 25lbs instead of 45lbs so all of my lifts (for the press) were 20lbs HEAVIER than they were supposed to be. My 1rep lift (90% of my 1RM) was supposed to be 100lbs; it was 120lbs. THAT’S 15LBS HEAVIER THAN MY ORIGINAL 1 REP MAX!!!!!!!!!! BOOYAAAAAA!!!! After wards I realized that and did the correct weight for the accessory lifts, I added in 2 accessory lifts as well. I did close grip bench, pull downs (in place of chin ups cause I can't do one yet) and straight bar curl. I added in an Iron Curl Marathon which is a pyramid lift it looked like 45lbsX1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 (it is supposed to be done with a partner and after your reps you had off to the partner, I just set the bar back onto the rack for the time a partner would have the bar) Then shrugs came in 1 set of 135 for 8 and 1 set of 185 for 6. My shoulders and biceps and upper back are going to be TOASTED tomorrow. GOD I love being back in the gym and making GAINZ! In other news, met with the recruiter on Monday, and as I said before I am going to be going into either Services (Hotel/restaurant / Gym management) or Materials Acquisition (Warehouse Management). I found out that no matter what I go in for, the Air Force automatically puts me on the track to get a degree in that field, I may have to take a few extra classes but I will end with at least an associates in that field. (Probably business management for either of those) I can also go to the Community College of the Air Force, because I am automatically enrolled. Also while in the CCAF I can get as many associate degrees as I can manage, AND the Air Force will foot the bill for me to get as many Bachelor degrees as I can. Anything over a Bachelor I will need to pay for BUT I can dip into my GI Bill and have that pay for it.

It was a good day overall. got a call from the insurance company and I got 3K MORE than I thought I was going to for my Jeep, met with the AF Recruiter and got some good answers. I am going to be going for either Services (managing Restraint/Hotel/Gym) or Materials acquisition (warehouse management) not cyber policing, looking in the long run I think I would enjoy those two more and they would let me do more when I get out.

Today is going to be a good day, none of my alarms went off this am, I scrambled to get ready for work within 20 minutes, I work a half day then get to fight with insurance companies over a rental THEN get to go to talk to the Air Force recruiter and who knows what after that...but today is going to be a good day. I can feel it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Does anyone else get the feeling it is going to be THIS GUYS fault when the zombie apocalypse rolls around? Anywho have you tried sweating it out man? Works wonders for me when I feel crummy, head to the gym(ymca for me) and stick yourself in the sauna with a bottle of ice water with lemon and just sweat yourself. I did it when I thought I was coming down with the flue and I kid you not in pretty sure I drained all my sickness out of my pours. Hope you feel better man. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just got a call this am that the doctors believe my great grandmother is going to make a full recovery! and the stress slides off my shoulders (atleast some of it) hitting the gym after work today (1230ish) and then grabbing the pup, running errands, picking up pizza, and doing some D&D with the friends as long as the wife feels up to it! BAM going to be a good day

pic of our guard dog on the beach behind the spoiler Kishi, If it is getting warmer, I would suggest grab coffee to go then go for a walk, exercise and chatting is always good!

Kishi, 20 seconds beast mode, ask the lady out. DO IT NOW!!!!! I'm cheering for you man

I think I just had a revelation everyone says the basic is almost more of a mental game then physical so the whole point of basic is to mentally break you down and test you to see if you can make it and handle the stresses I think life is been trying to prepare me for that but throwing all of the shit if I don't break from this then I won't break at basic. Having that line of thought makes me feel better almost I'm not sure why but it just makes me feel less stressed as stupid as that sounds maybe it's because I feel like all of this is actually going somewhere or building up to something not just random events and there's nothing I can do I don't know we will see Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Update on Ggrandma, she is speaking in complete sentences (which don't make sense) which is an improvement over earlier today. She had a stroke but there isn't really any slurring of her words. She is very confused and scared because of no knowing why she is left alone. I'm spending the night at the hospital with her so my aunt (her daughter) can go home and get some rest. Work knows that I may not be in tomorrow. Gotta say as much as I get frustrated by my job they are awesome about family shit. Tonight when my assistant manager found out about my great grandmother, my AMs response was "and why the fuck are you still here? Cash up and go there." Tidy was better at work. I think it was because my supervisor was not there and she is the source of a lot of the negativity. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh yeah one more thing to add to the bad news column evidently my great grandmother is in the hospital right now either having had or is having a stroke and they don't know if she's going to make it through the night Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
