One week of Insanity down, 8 to go! It's kicking my ass, but there's no way I won't shed some serious fat with this. At least I hope there's no way. I would be very depressed if I didn't end up looking any different. I wanna look good, not be in shape! I ain't here to run marathons and shit.

OH HAI JOURNAL

Two weeks off during and after Travis's birth. He is so fucking cute I can't stand it. I can't believe he's all mine!

So now that I had a break, tweaked my neck a little, then recovered tonight was the first night of insanity. It was hard. But I have to do it. For him. For her. For me.

Benched 190 for the full 5x5 last night. I can officially bench my own weight. I think this makes me the strongest man in the world. Next time I will need the ACTUAL Starman music instead of playing it in my head XD ( Read more... )

Doing the 10 lb squat increments. I think it's helping. I found that staring at my nads is the perfect way to get my squats right, it keeps my neck in the right spot and I can see when I've gone low enough.

Doug gave Lance some advice about not going down too slow but to try and drop most of the way instead, so I tried it and it did help conserve a little energy for an extra rep or two. Also Jesse and I have mastered the swinging kick ( Read more... )

Gotta squat lower. Not quite making parallel anymore :P

So today marks four full months of doing Stronglifts 5x5. Here's a record of my total progress since August 3rd ( Read more... )

Due to crowding I did bench press first last night. 180 for the full 5x5! I'm kickin' some ass ( Read more... )

Did not get 275 at ALL yesterday. 4/4/4/2 and I crashed on the safety bars. Dunno what the deal was...maybe lack of food? Energy? Sleep? Creatine loading? Music? Just have to try it again tomorrow ( Read more... )
