I'm sure that's rough. Seems like a pretty crazy week. And that band is pretty cool too. Only like half a song in, but I like them so far! I'm extremely picky of the lyrics I choose to listen to though, so we'll see about it. So far "Deceiver of the gods" sounds like it's about Loki. I wonder if these guys liked The Avengers....... 1 Quote "Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back." - Captain Malcolm Reynolds Current Challenge Also, I Agree With Tank™ Link to comment

Buff Brogan Posted October 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 so, i've been meaning to update and what not, but haven't had the heart/drive. still been training though. two of my friends and co-workers had twins early tuesday morning... on what should've been the happiest day of their lives, she passed away shortly after delivery. i'm posting a link to help my friend in his time of need. if you want to donate/share i thank you in advance. just trying to get the word further out therehttp://gfwd.at/1FTZ0lS Quote LEVEL: 7 Furyan Ranger - Battle Log - in lieu of this challenge don't look back, we aren't going that way: Rebirth - Wrestlemania Dark Raider vs KZacher From Tartarus with Love - Wrath of the Furyan - it's a secret! - FIGHT! - You can go your own way - The Rational Gaze - Rise from Death to Knife this Beast(part 3-the agony) - Demonized(part 2) - By Demons Be Driven(part 1) - Link to comment

Buff Brogan Posted May 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 in lieu of a challenge, i thought i'd resurrect this battle log to help me stay honest and consistent with my training as well as make sure i spend some time on here at least a few days a week. honestly, i've missed this place. A LOT. i'm not sure what compelled me to log back in last week, but i'd been thinking of all my friends on here for some time now. maybe a happy accident. who knows. the reality is, i started off very strong on the boards and stayed very consistent for the first year or so. around that time, life threw me some curve balls and i pulled the batman smoke screen disappearing act. when i returned, i think i was trying to be too many places at once on the boards while simultaneously trying to be too many places at once. not making that mistake again. with that said, no challenge for me this go around, and the next challenge we'll have to wait and see how it all pans out. for that reason, i'm not following a ton of threads, just kinda bouncing around and seeing where the winds take me. to catch everyone up, life has changed a lot for me in my last absence, but i'm in a good place mentally i think. i now have 2 bands, Iron Shroud(which some of you had heard about the last time i was on the boards) which is a metal band. and KayFabe, which is a thrash/punk band(more to come on this later). that's all i'll really get into for now. fitness wise, i've been able to get myself into pretty damn good shape since jan. but, some back story, June/July of 2020 i was very overweight (243 lbs of not much muscle), diagnosed as type 2 diabetic, cholesterol sky high, and high blood pressure. a few weeks ago, no diabetes, no high cholesterol, and perfect blood pressure. i'm now at 198 lbs - which is virtually the same as what my fighting weight was. sadly, my life in combat training and sports had to come to an end after several injuries and discovering i have mild scoliosis as well as degenerative disc disease. these things have also made me alter the way that i train overall. however, i refuse to give up on myself and will continue to do all i can to have a healthy lifestyle and improve my overall longevity and quality of life. i know that was a lot to digest, so i'll finally update this with my workouts thus far for the week. 5.10: Back & Bi's Machine low rows: 4 sets - drop sets only receive 10 sec rest between initial set and drop set(for all workouts) 10 reps at 90 lbs 10 reps at 80 lbs 10 reps at 80 lbs - drop set 20 reps 60 lbs 10 reps at 70 lbs - drop set 20 reps 50 lbs - drop set 10 reps 50 lbs seated cable row: 4 sets 10 reps at 140 lbs 10 reps at 160 lbs 10 reps at 120 lbs - drop set 20 reps 90 lbs 10 reps at 100 lbs - drop set 20 reps 80 lbs - 10 reps 80 lbs chest supported dumbbell row: 4 sets 10 reps at 50 lbs 10 reps at 40 lbs 10 reps at 30 lbs - drop set 20 reps 20 lbs 10 reps at 30 lbs - drop set 20 reps 20 lbs - 10 reps 20 lbs Lat pull downs: 4 sets 10 reps at 115 lbs 10 reps at 115 lbs 10 reps at 115 lbs - drop set 20 reps 85 lbs 10 reps at 90 lbs - drop set 20 reps 70 lbs - 10 reps 70 lbs spider cable curls: 4 sets 10 reps at 100 lbs 10 reps at 95 lbs 10 reps at 85 lbs - drop set 20 reps 65 lbs 10 reps at 80 lbs - drop set 20 reps 65 lbs - 10 reps 65 lbs high pully cable curls: 4 sets 10 reps at 20 lbs 10 reps at 15 lbs 10 reps at 15 lbs - drop set 20 reps 10 lbs 10 reps at 15 lbs - drop set 16 reps 10 lbs - 10 reps 10 lbs 5.11: Shoulders and tri's chest supported rear delt raises: 4 sets - drop sets only receive 10 sec rest between initial set and drop set(for all workouts) 10 reps at 20 lbs 10 reps at 20 lbs 10 reps at 20 lbs - drop set 20 reps 10 lbs 10 reps at 20 lbs - drop set 16 reps 10 lbs - 10 reps 10 lbs machine incline shoulder press: 4 sets 10 reps at 70 lbs 10 reps at 80 lbs 10 reps at 80 lbs - drop set 20 reps 50 lbs 10 reps at 70 lbs - drop set 15 reps 40 lbs - 10 reps 50 lbs dumbbell lat raises: 4 sets 10 reps at 20 lbs 10 reps at 20 lbs 10 reps at 20 lbs - drop set 20 reps 10 lbs 10 reps at 15 lbs - drop set 20 reps 10 lbs - 10 reps 15 lbs upright rows: 4 sets 10 reps at 60 lbs 10 reps at 70 lbs 10 reps at 60 lbs - drop set 20 reps 40 lbs 10 reps at 50 lbs - drop set 20 reps 40 lbs - 10 reps 40 lbs tri cable press downs: 4 sets 10 reps at 40 lbs 10 reps at 50 lbs 10 reps at 50 lbs - drop set 20 reps 40 lbs 10 reps at 50 lbs - drop set 20 reps 40 lbs - 10 reps 40 lbs reverse grip tri push downs 10 reps at 30 lbs 10 reps at 40 lbs 10 reps at 30 lbs - drop set 20 reps 20 lbs 10 reps at 30 lbs - drop set 20 reps 20 lbs - 10 reps 20 lbs lying cable tri ext: 10 reps at 35 lbs 10 reps at 35 lbs 10 reps at 35 lbs - drop set 20 reps 25 lbs 10 reps at 30 lbs - drop set 20 reps 20 lbs - 10 reps 20 lbs 2 Quote LEVEL: 7 Furyan Ranger - Battle Log - in lieu of this challenge don't look back, we aren't going that way: Rebirth - Wrestlemania Dark Raider vs KZacher From Tartarus with Love - Wrath of the Furyan - it's a secret! - FIGHT! - You can go your own way - The Rational Gaze - Rise from Death to Knife this Beast(part 3-the agony) - Demonized(part 2) - By Demons Be Driven(part 1) - Link to comment

cn3wton Posted May 12, 2021 Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 Welcome back dude! I had a friend who I used to do Crossfit with years back. He was amazing one of the most driven people. Then he found out about some conditions he had. He pretty much had to stop Crossfit on the spot. It was crazy to me. I went over to his house to put some vinyl on his motorcyle and had a beer with him and chatted. He was happy and laughing and I asked him how he was doing. And he said that while it upset him at first he knew it was something he couldn't change. He could get pissed off or he could find something he could do and devote himself to that. It was an incredible mindshift that goes to show you that just because you have to step away from one thing it simply means an opportunity opens up elsewhere! 2 Quote "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us." - J.R.R Tolkien "Progress, not perfection."

All of the other issues, i.e. weight/diabetes/bp/etc, were all a result of my own developed bad habits. i know i'm a monster when i'm motivated, but that same thing is true for anything damning i seem to do as well. all or nothing kinda guy if you will. 3 Quote LEVEL: 7 Furyan Ranger - Battle Log - in lieu of this challenge don't look back, we aren't going that way: Rebirth - Wrestlemania Dark Raider vs KZacher From Tartarus with Love - Wrath of the Furyan - it's a secret! - FIGHT! - You can go your own way - The Rational Gaze - Rise from Death to Knife this Beast(part 3-the agony) - Demonized(part 2) - By Demons Be Driven(part 1) - Link to comment

cn3wton Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 I was just discussing something similar to "all or nothing". It seems people have a tendency to define themselves in particular ways. For instance a fat person is fat and thats how they define themselves. Then they start losing weight and suddenly they are the person pushing to lose weight. Then they find something like crossfit and they identify as the crazy no holds barred workout addict in the family. At least thats my story. Once you feel that you arent that thing you drop it and it becomes so hard to identify as that again. At least from my and my friends experience. Brains are wierd. 2 Quote "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us." - J.R.R Tolkien "Progress, not perfection."
