I really enjoy this thread too and I always check it every single day.  It's my fav thread on getbig because here we can all chill, discuss our training and sometimes follow with some banter.  We are all here to motivate each other and help one another.  It's a tight good little group.  Sending love to you guys from the ocean.     Thank you for making it a great thread.

I've got to train bis and tris today and I am bored thinking about it.  I need to mix it up as it feels as though I do the same thing all the time when it comes to arms.  I will go to gym soon and then post up.

On one hand, it is a bummer only having one car, but on the other hand, you had to pedal you mountain bike through the snow. How does that work anyway?

Here it is Monday, the first workout day of the week and I had to attend a board meeting (I'm the chair, so I can hardly get out of it). Anyway the meeting lasted longer than usual. By the time I got back to West Linn, it was nearly dinner time. Once I have dinner, I'm done. My best time to work out is around 2:00 p.m. I am not a morning person at all, so mornings are out. When I worked, my shift ended at 2:30 p.m. I could be at the gym before 3:00 p.m. and home before 5:00 p.m. I need to work this system into my current schedule.

My wife fixed deep fried chicken with tater tots and peas for dinner. I know fried food isn't on most fitness buff's diets, but she got the fat hot enough that nothing was the least bit oily. Anyway, being fit is my thing and not so much hers.

I wish I had seen this before I went to gym Alex.  Anyway good advice, I will use it next time.  So I didn't do much volumn today as it felt as though I was going through the motions...wasn't really into it.  I tried to do a standing over head tricep extension but it hurt my elbows and they started clicking so I stopped it after 8 reps. 

tris, bis


Tricep pressdowns V bar x 5 sets
db standing over head tricep extensions x 1 set
rope pressdowns x 3 sets
Ezy bar curls x 3 sets
straight bar curls x 3 sets

well the Germans being efficient people have great cycle paths and clear them fast. The snow was deep but not so deep you could not cycle but it was much harder. I just had to watch the down hill cycling as it was a bit tricky. Prime you sound like you have a great wife who looks after you..

The paths and roads are perfectly clean.  I always love seeing these pics Donny.  I dream about being in the snow.

But yes take pics I love them...I imagine I am burying my nose in all that snow.  Nose delight..
