SevenofSeven Posted May 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 Yesterday had to go pick up Son5 from school, he was sick. There went most of the day. Not happy that I had an energy drink to help get through it. Uniform on today and hoping for a quiet one! Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment

SevenofSeven Posted May 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2016 The site is being funny with some of my posts and stuff! Finished week 9 of the cube last night with heavy squat. Then messed about a bit and did deadlifts. Totally funny though, after doing a single 100kg squat, went to do an 83.5kg and nearly lost it. The old legs kinda went "nope" the brain went "YES", finally pushed it up but it was the oddest feeling! Deadlifts, 108.5kg, 120kg, 126kg. Hoping for 130kg on Saturday. Mothers Day today and Soccer and all the other stuff. Thought Sunday was a day of rest. 1 Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment

Had to zoom the phone as far as it would go, they were closer to the fence when I drove by, but took off when I reversed back. As far as getting close, not likely. There are holiday destinations that encourage feeding, so you can get up close and personal, but I wouldn't trust an essentially wild animal. Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment

SevenofSeven Posted May 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 Test Day: 14/05/2016 Weather: Awesome, slight breeze, few clouds, but more sun and hovering around 20 degrees C. The shed is awesome comfortable! Food: Bacon, eggs, tomato, avacado, coffee. Weight: 107.8kg ( little heavy but nothing to stress about.........yet ) Worries: nervous, knee is still looking ugly but not as bad as Thursday, no pain, feeling pretty good. Slept well, actually feel rested. OK, the nuts of the story: Warm Up: Lots of stretching, skipping, disclocations, arms swings, leg swings, basic movements at BW. Slightly out of breath, beginning to sweat. Squats: 1x5@41kg warm up 1x3@81kg warm up 1x2@91kg warm up 1x1@101kg belted, strong and smooth, got Hairy to spot for me. 1x1@106kg belted, strong and smooth, Hairy spotting. 1x1@111kg belted, strong, smooth, even Hairy gave me a high five after I stopped bouncing around! NEW PR Feeling like I still had plenty in the tank and was sorely tempted to go 116kg, but you know Deadlifts! Bench: 1x5@40kg warm up 1x3@50kg warm up 1x1@70kg started well, but had a hitch just off the chest, put pushed it out and finished the lift! Hairy was spotter. 1x1@72.5kg fail. Start was good, got to chest, pause, began press and about 4" up got stuck. Needed Hairy to help, hmmmm, this is proving to be my weakest lift! Deadlift: 1x3@91kg warm up 1x1@121kg belted and feeling rather fast and on point! 1x1@126kg belted and on point. Previous PR. felt really good! 1x1@131kg belted, had a slight sticking point at knees but finished strong locking out at the top! NEW PR! 1x1@136kg belted, got to just below the knees and just no. But that's cool, this one was just for shits and giggles! No super records today but PR'd squat and DL so mega happy with that! Knee is all good, but did wear leggings under knee sleeves because I think that is my problem, my knee sleeves are wearing and getting stretched out and seem to support less. No photos of lifts because Sons were busy and Hairy was spotting, but did get photos of barbell loaded with PR weights. Will add later. (If photo thing doesn't piss me off). Fuck Yeah! 2 Quote Wait!

SevenofSeven Posted May 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 Wow, it's cold. Off to be part of the Breast Cancer Fun Run in Greenbushes. Not running but Ambulance support.

SevenofSeven Posted May 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 It's Monday and time to get things happening! Priorities though, Game of Thrones first, then school! Tonight heading back to Madcow. Taking it slow and should be hitting maxes in week 5, if I got it right. I like the first couple of weeks are lighter! Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment
SevenofSeven Posted May 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Madcow Round 2 15/05/2016 Warm Up: Skipping, stretching, stuff involving hanging off the ute parked in my shed! Squats: 1x5@46kg 1x5@56kg 1x5@71kg 1x5@81kg 1x5@91kg These were a little harder than I thought they should have been. The last rep on the last set was just downright ugly! Bench: 1x5@30kg 1x5@35kg 1x5@40kg 1x5@50kg 1x5@55kg Bench on the other hand was surprisingly a joy.........go figure! BOR: 1x5@25kg 1x5@30kg 1x5@35kg 1x5@40kg 1x5@45kg Powered through these! Felt surprisingly strong in the upper back/lats........cool! No accessories, which cut my time in the shed in half, but felt strangely weird not to have done something. I aim to remedy that and do some accessory type things. The only concern I have going into this is squatting every session and how badly my knee might end up hating me. As it is now it is not too bad. Guess new knee sleeves aren't as far away as I thought. 1 Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment

However, we are never going to have a satisfactory ending to the books now, why couldn't he just finish the saga and have an ending to the characters, then whatever happens in the show happens. You can't have the show and then the book. IDK???? Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment
