NO BULLSHIT TRAINING THREAD..........JUST TRAINING !

[wes]

I have not trained for awhile now but I went into the garage today and my kids had got me one of those seated leg ext/curl machines for home use!   I can now do the stuff to improve my one leg!!

I know this isn't real training yet but more than a few of you I consider very inspirational to me and a few weeks back I bought a similar machine that arrived damaged and had to send it back.  Then another bill came up that was more important and so I just decided I would of course pay that bill and save the money again for one of these.

I just tried it out with 10 lbs for my one good leg and I got 7 good reps before that was it.  For a man that could at one time easily do 750lbs for over 10 good reps, well...that meant a LOT and so I share this with you my family of iron here and yes, I am literally in tear of gratitude and joy to my children and to my brothers including all of you her and our sisters, Buttercup, Princess and  Miss Jane that inspire me and have been so kind!! 

I left my crutches about ten feet away an will rest and recover my heart is THUNDERING at this pussy accomplishment.  If I die tonight and do not come back know my friends that I die more myself than I have been in over a decade.  My heart really is pounding!!

Just keep on pushing and never quit my friend......NO MATTER WHAT!!

have you trained today or just gone down to the basement and tried a 1RM on something?

My thanks to all.  I asked my wife to bring me the nitroglycerin in the event i was having a heart attack and that did not help.  So I went in and the ER said I was fine but it was good to check with them as it is highly likely I wouldn't know if I was having a heart attack or not.  I drove myself because my wife i not feeling well.   

The doctor talked with me and said it was just an emotional response gone wild most likely because of the present from our children to me and then doing that set with tiny weight, so yes bhanky, you are stronger than I am. 

But not from 20 years ago, LOL! Only today counts kiddo, I get it.    Still, it is Christmas in July for me.  I talked with one of my brothers, the retired law enforcement one and he mentioned again how bad I looked when I visited them (his wife is an ER/ICU RN) a couple of months (I think) ago.  I told him i am getting better.

I was supposed to leave last Tuesday to visit my oldest brother but was told not to risk it for another month or so and so I stayed home. It looks like they were kinda right.  I was also supposed to go visit my little sister in the midwest but that too was set on the back burner for now.    The doctor said I could train with light weights but to watch the emotional roller coaster. 

Thanks again, gentlemen.

well done Scott

Amen to that.

Scott is a good dude.  I like the fact that, in spite of the fact that he's well-read and obviously very intelligent, he routinely says he regards himself a dullard.

I'm only 45, but I feel the same way   I'm definitely not as smart as I used to be, but I think I'm just smart enough to realize that the older I get, the less I truly *know* beyond routines and that I have, at best, a superficial understanding of the world.

In the words of one of my former employees, a wily old black man:  "You take a man who think he know everything, and you got a man who don't know a goddamn thing."

How 'bout every Thanksgiving you give thanks you didn't (try to) beat me up.  There I was with my trademark Lofstrands and not a word out of you as you walked by me. 

Here is reality if you had harmed me.  You would have gone directly to jail to be someone's Bottom Bitch. And no, you would not have turned into the "white tornado" and whupped ass.   Just STFU and grow the fuck up you pathetic little manlette.

YOU FUCKING DICKHEAD!

Godamn these look good more packages on the way but the 55 and 10s showed up today. I mean yeah you can train with rocks but these calibrated rogue plates look good and I will be able to fit smaller increments on the bar as my plates are too wide for the curl bar.

[38 returns]

Have to agree with Brian for once


Rogue are really nice

I know from my own perspective if I ever intend to cherry pick a Mickey Mouse strength event because I am too scared to actually compete against people I would insist on the very best equipment!

What must Betty think? Sorry Em. I mean Em. What must Em think. Not Betty. Definitely not Betty.
