Since nobody really talks lifting anymore. I’ll try to keep it going. Been fighting for this win for a while. Finally got my 200lb keg press and got it super easy too. Slowly but surely becoming a more well rounded athlete with all these weird strongman implements and lifts.

I decided to give myself the week off while I'm figuring out my new job. Then hopefully try out a new schedule next week.

 

Bodyweight workouts perhaps? Or absolutely 0 activity?

 

Did the same thing last week. Mandatory OT so just took me the week off lifting.

2 weeks out and I’m feeling fcking great for this comp. Deadlift is gonna be my weakest event but I’m going to come home as Rhode Island’s Strongest u90kg

 

Hey, word on the street is that steroids shrink your junk. Looks like your junk is growing.

 

It’s the dick to ball ratio. Ya know what I mean? Two things getting smaller makes something else look bigger hahahaha

 

Ummm..Rhode Island?

 

Yep that’s the comp.

Hmm, about an hour from my front door

 

RIP to Rich Piana. That's a classic line

 

Wish it was the same for us. About 9-10 hour drive unfortunately but stoked to see more states and eat some real pizza and bagels in New York

 

Ahhh where else are you heading?

 

Doing some lifting, farmers carries and cardio every day at work.

 

Checking in. I've poked in and out here and there before. Just signed up for a local 5k downtown, Spartan half marathon, and downtown half. I have 50 days to be ready to race at the spartan. Getting over a two week cold ATM and I'm still not 100%. Been pushing fluids and vitamins to no avail, just cant shake it. Going for a 3 mile hike tomorrow with 60lbs followed by a 5k trail run followed by a 3 mile 60 lb hike to get back to the truck. Just downloaded strava and now I have the urge to track my miles a little better and work on some better times.

 

I have two and a half hour trail run scheduled tomorrow. Its been raining all day today and tomorrow. Pretty sure its gonna be a tough mudder like run lol.

I’m prepping for a half too in a couple weeks so I may just do it on the road to prep for that.

 

Muddy runs are my favorite. My wife hates them. Dogs come back filthy lol. Icy runs are the ones I don't like.
