The Consequences of Fitness

[UConnJulie]

No ... no guilt ... why fool yourself that you didn't have that lick off the peanut butter spoon? Is it really calorie-free?

[Lost Dog]

I do lick the spoon. But, if I don't, I won't get the cals I think I'm taking in and go into starvation mode and get fat.

You can just jump rope for that, ya know...

...but anyway. Workout time.

Unlike Benji up there ^^ who tested out all the DBs in the gym for burs and balance problems, I worked out. And it was brutal.

Body Weight, 189lbs

A1, Dbl DB Cleans, 5x3, 55lbs
A2, Plyo Pushups, 5x3

B1, Zercher Squats, 5x5, 185/205/205/205/205
B2, Renegade Row/Pushup, 4xMax (8/8/8/6), 25lbs

C, DB Swings, 3x20, 75

F'ing hardest workout EVER

[RedLefty]

Hey, I did DB swings today too! But with 25 lbs... not your 75 lbs...

Then your ass ain't sore, then? Good for you, because mine's still hurtin' I did knock out a workout yesterday though. Just because I was in withdrawal...

You and your hands, sheesh. Aren't they just two big callouses yet?

He's going for the Steve Cotter forearm composition.

And by the way, LD, I did my own kick-ass workout yesterday, thank you very much

[UConnJulie]

Hey ... where's my post?!?! I posted earlier ... to RL ... all I said was "Sally".

Hey, I was up to 45 pounders today. Not full-on Sally anymore. More like an East German woman from the 1960s. Well, maybe not that strong. Maybe at least a Swedish tomboy with above-average strength?

We can't all be stigmata buttboys.

[Lost Dog]

I'm way confused.

I posted the stuff that RL and Phaedrus responded to. Then that was all gone. I posted it again, at which time Julie's awkwardly placed "sally" appeared, seemingly out of no where. Then, that was gone, too (my 2nd attempt and Julie's wit). I posted the WTF? and went to the gym. I get back and my WTF and Julie's WTF are there still, but nothing else. I go to post AGAIN and everything comes back EXCEPT my 2nd post of yesterday's workout (which I'd deleted as a duplicate, earlier). Crap. My head is spinning.

Tonight's workout

A, DB Clean & Push Press, 5x5, 65/70/75/75/75

B1, Single Leg Squat onto bench, 5xMax (3/2/2/2) - laughable. pathetic.
B2, BB BO Row, 5x5, 155/175/185/185/185

C1, Overhead Shrug, 3x12, 75
C2, Single Leg RDL (2 DBs), 3x12 per leg, 25

My single leggedness is sorta lame. I can do split squats, lunges, reverse lunges, and step ups, but I was pathetic on the single leg squats. I even needed a 25lbs plate at arms length. The RDLs were super shaky, too. Not as bad as the squats, but still. Work to do. Ugh.

The DB Clean and Push Presses were almost a total workout. I could've stopped and been pretty well done. They were brutal.

[Lost Dog]

It happened again!

[Lost Dog]

No it didn't.

Wish it to the cornfield Ben! Wish it to the cornfield!

[Aoife]

Otto thinks it might be some weird way the load is split... and that somehow every once in a while we slip into bizarro world.

[Ogedei]

Bizarro world where we are all still fat?
