Vector Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Done with the challenges for now. This is the log. I am 47, working on getting stronger (again) and getting done with fixin' what's broke only to break it again. So while this is a strength program, it's heavily bent towards my back. I am also trying a lunar cycle of deloads during the third quarter to full moon. My biggest stumbling block is pushing too hard too soon, so I will be reining in my rambunctious side if at all possible. Working a three day a week (ish) schedule. Quote Link to comment

Vector Posted September 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 Sept. 17 2014 Deload (fail!) Today I tore apart an 18 foot long planter left here by the previous homeowners. Made of railroad cross ties. Relocated the ties, half nearby, the other half down the hill and into the garden. Fuckers are heavy, but other than one jammed finger and a few scrapes, I won. Hell of a workout! Quote Link to comment
MogiShade Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 Sept. 17 2014 Deload (fail!) Today I tore apart an 18 foot long planter left here by the previous homeowners. Made of railroad cross ties. Relocated the ties, half nearby, the other half down the hill and into the garden. Fuckers are heavy, but other than one jammed finger and a few scrapes, I won. Hell of a workout! I can imagine, we don't even move them by hand anymore - everything is mechanized. Be careful though, they're full or creosote, a nasty carcinogen. We avoid touching them like the plague and always use thick work gloves. Old ones shouldn't be too bad to handle, though I'd avoid using them in a garden with edibles. But then again, I'm a little paranoid.

Vector Posted September 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 Yeah, I use them downstream only to keep some dirt from washing down the hill. I've got cedar logs from trees I took down for the stuff that is actually anywhere near anything we eat! Heavy bastards, indeed! Quote Link to comment
Vector Posted September 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 Justa note that I am killing my log here. I have decided to outsource my programming to someone else and will be doing all my tracking on their internal site. I'll still come & see what y'all are doing from time to time! all the best- Vector Quote Link to comment

Vector Posted September 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 Bye Vector. I hope that the new program is awesome!It is! The designer is MUCH better at this than I am, and it's a very supportive group. I'll still pop in to other threads I expect, but it doesn't make sense to post his stuff in public as it is his intellectual property. Quote Link to comment

Vector Posted September 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 Just when I thought we had you back...Yeah, right?! I was reading s bunch of stuff from Jason Ferruggia, and decided to join his paid site, which is really dead-on perfect for me. Nice mix of strength work, in a lot of ranges I tend to avoid, with programmed mobility & sprint work. All the shit I avoid, all in one place. Quote Link to comment
AgentsSka Posted September 24, 2014 Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 Sounds like a great fit! Best of luck, bud! 1 Quote Current Challenge || Previous:: 2020 Reset There are a ton of previous challenges that I'm not linking "Freaking pansies.
