insanity Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 Gotta love Council downsizing. They are sending out pamphlets about getting fit, staying healthy, but it's all about Zumba, Body Pump and Les Fucking Mills. Cardio, cardio, cardio.Had that same problem at my work. They had a group "get fit" contest. The measurement for what group won... Weight loss. 1 Quote "Insanity - you make my world a better place man, you really do!

Everything was fine until DL's, I have to do something about my grip! Today when I hit the 85kg, the bar resettles in my left hand and nearly tears my calluses off! It hasn't mattered before but for some reason they caught today. Mid set, started using mixed grip.........not a favourite of mine. Got to the close grip bench and I'm as weak as a kitten, these were really grinding. On the upshot, I managed a photo of my new T-shirt will post it when I get into town this arvo. Quote Wait!

Son1's GF brought her dog down this time.......we warned her about Lilly not being social, seems things were going ok, then random dude goes driving through property and Lilly gets all hackles up, and decides GF's poodle thingy looks like a mighty fine chew toy! I just wish people would heed the warnings. Poodle thingy is ok, just shaken up...........LOL pun not intended.Anyway back to life and washing and housework.......and it's raining. 1 Quote Wait!

Stonie Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Ahh, not a lot you can do when you warn or tell people something and they ignore you nonetheless, except wait for them to learn the hard way. xD How bad was the rain today? If Mr. Tea wasn't sick I would have dragged him up the Stirling Ranges to see the snow that was apparently happening there because it was so cold. xD 1 Quote Stonie They/Them Currently reading: Good Omens by Terry Pratchet & Neil Gaiman Currently playing: Outer Worlds (Xbox) Current DnD character: A radio presenter who’s magical bardic weapon is a portable radio broadcaster’s kit Link to comment

But they are planning on moving to Bridgetown, so may be able to work on her some more!Well I hope you can get through to her. ive just about given up trying to get through to the people in my life these days. I even gave up trying to get through to my wife at one point, which oddly enough was exactly what it was that got through to Her in the end. 1 Quote Dwarf Warrior I am today what I made myself yesterday, I will be tomorrow what I make of myself today.

SevenofSeven Posted August 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Figured that since I have a Scout camp next weekend I am going to knock out 3 Madcow workouts 3 days in a row, which is not ideal, but I am on a roll with 3x a week lifting. The following week will be the same as I have a Venturer camp/Mud Run/Awesome weekend! Pretty confident it shouldn't mess things up too badly........we'll see eh? 1 Quote Wait! What............?

Take care of yourself alright? That's a lot of stress on your CNS two weeks in a row. Get as much sleep as you can and be sure to eat. Also, if you start to wear down, it'd be better that you skip a workout than injure yourself. 1 Quote Dwarf Warrior I am today what I made myself yesterday, I will be tomorrow what I make of myself today.

SevenofSeven Posted August 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 I'll take it easy juni0r83, I have a cunning plan!So marked out the campsites for next weekend, built a Leaders gateway, which looks impressive and hung out with some really great country Leaders. So much more laid back than some of the city Leaders I have met.So here we are Sunday afternoon and I have a huge case of CBF'd. Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment

SevenofSeven Posted August 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 Monday 10.8.2015Madcow Week 3:Warm Up:The usual, bit of this bit of that.Squats:1x5@40kg1x5@45kg1x5@55kg1x5@65kg1x5@75kgWeird tweeky thing happening in my left knee, almost like nerve pinch feeling. Once warmed up though it's all good. Almost didn't get up on my last rep, don't know what happened there, not a feeling I wish to repeat. Haven't lifted 75kg for a little while, but wasn't horrendously tough, weird.Bench:1x5@25kg1x5@30kg1x5@35kg1x5@40kg1x5@45kgNothing to report, still shifting these ok.BOR:1x5@20kg1x5@25kg1x5@30kg1x5@35kg1x5@40kgFelt like she hulk, had control over these all the way, slow steady and concentrating on last and arms in. Liked these today!Ok, because I plan on consecutive lifting days this week due to camp, I am canning the accessories, hoping not to fry CNS and everything else. Keen for it. 1 Quote Wait!

SevenofSeven Posted August 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 TuesdayMadcow Week 3Warm Up:Usual shyte, plus BW Squatsx10 and 30kg Squatsx5Squats:1x5@40kg1x5@45kg2x5@55kgOHP:1x5@20kg2x5@25kg1x5@30kgDeadlift:1x5@65kg1x5@75kg1x5@90kg1x1@100kg ( 3 more attempts but couldn't pull past my knees, fuck it all )1x5@80kg So everything working great until my 100kg pull WTF? Feeling great, had eaten, nothing too taxing prior to lift, but fuck me if I couldn't get it past my bloody knees. So to compensate smashed out 5 @ 80kg no problems, which then made me feel worse because of my fails.A plus is that grip was not an issue, even though the condensation was ridiculous, so using my weaker hand with a pinch grip to haul plates around the shed seems to be working. Another plus, my Thursday morning just opened up so don't have to do heavy triples tomorrow but can fit them in the day after! Woot!I must admit though feeling a little overwhelmed at the moment. Seems everything is aligning this week so I have less time to do what I need to do and seem to be putting band aids on everything, just to reach the end of the day!Is Deadlifting once a week enough? Do I do a Deadlift day? Fucked if I know. Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment
SevenofSeven Posted August 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 I spent money on some stuff for me today, I got a purple lifting belt which is. Going to take forever to get here and some purple and orange knee sleeves, which should be here in a week or so.Excited much Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment
SevenofSeven Posted August 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Off to the pool for work in service, laps, CPR and paperwork. Really looking forward to the laps, it has been too long since I went swimming.Youngest lad is coming with me! He is a water baby too! Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment
