Deadlift 5x3@300lbs

Rack Pull 4x3 3x225,3x225,3x295,3x325

Barbell Row 4x3 3x105,3x105,3x115

One Arm Dumbbell Row 3xFailure@55lbs

My roommate came to lift with me again, he even told me me to wake him up if he wasn’t up by the time I was going to go to the gym.  I guess he’s serious about lifting this summer and trying to cut some weight which is a good thing, I hope he’s able to do that.  I never realized how competitive I can be until my roommate started lifting with me.  If he felt up to putting weight on the bar for his lifts I had to put weight on too.  I did my deadlifts a little bit differently today.  For a long time I’d just being pulling triples and increasing weight till I couldn’t pull triples and then I’d pull singles until I hit one that felt like a grind.  Pulling five triples at 300 was much harder than what I used to do for deadlifts.  Towards the end I could feel my grip weakening so I’ll need to work on that.

Local Vengeance Killing by Living Sacrifice


“FOR THE CAUSE, MY TRIAL, MY JUDGMENT, MY RETRIBUTION
A NEW MACHINE LEAVING ALL BEHIND
MERCY WILL ONLY COMPLICATE
FILL THE SPACE INSIDE, SHOOT TO KILL THE WOUNDED
THE CALLOUSED TONGUE
MY AIM IS PRECISE, ARMED WITH MY OWN FAILURES, THE
COST OF BEING YOU
BRACE YOURSELF LIKE A MAN
YOU FAIL TO QUALIFY, IT’S ONLY PERSONAL, JUST BEING…
A NEW MACHINE, A NEW MACHINE MY AIM IS PRECISE, MY RETRIBUTION”

theycallmemiketaylor asked: No I appreciate it! I hate contributing to interwebz myths like that haha.

haha, good! Usually I don’t care about internet myths but when they drag my childhood into that crosses a line.

What’s a cardio?

I did some HIIT today, this was the first cardio in months.  I figured since it’s summer and I can run outside I don’t really have an excuse to not do cardio any more.  I went to a track near by and just sprinted the straight away five times with about 3 minutes in between sprints. 

I bought some L-Arginine and Beta-Alanine in pill form from a local health food store just for kicks and to see what happens when I take them before I workout.  I took one pill of each before running and I’m not sure if it made a difference.  I noticed that  I did not seem to have the lactic acid burn that I usually get as a result of sprints, perhaps as a result of the amino acids.  I’m going to keep taking them and experiment with the dosage to see what happens.

I also picked up some target brand whey protein today to try out.  It’s nothing special, but I wasn’t expecting anything great.  The taste is tolerable and it mixes well so that was a pleasant surprise.  The ingredient list is pretty simple but the first ingredient listen is whey concentrate and the second is whey isolate so I’ll take that as a good sign as well.

This is the real last Calvin and Hobbes strip.  The internet is retarded some times.

I’m drinking whiskey and coke out of my shaker bottle, I think I just took being a bro to a whole new level.  Maybe I should throw some whey protein and creatine in there too.
