my gym has one of those things but it's lost. i use two pairs of hand towels, folded up. what i should do (will do next time) is stack them longwise across my lap.

i mean yeah it's obviously useless for athletes, but even if i were fattier than i am at the same height and weight it would be ridiculous to say i was overweight. i'm thin.

FFMI (using 10% bf, which i think is a reasonable guess at the moment) i got 22.1/22.2.

WEIGHT: 189 (171 -- heading the right way)
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right hip, ankles a little (?)
MENTAL STATE: good, a little tired

- warm up

- MB toss x 12
not great but better than the other day. will post vid soon of first four throws.

- DL bound x 4,4,4
each set progressively better

- squat 325 x 1; paused 275 x 1,1,1,1,1
325 was too slow for my liking so i backed off. bar popped far off shoulders on every rep.

- hip thrust 275 x 12,12
uncomfortable in the groinal region.

gym closed.

god i'm borderline overweight, 24.4.

there was an op/ed recently in the NYT about how people being overweight doesn't increase morbidity when you look at population-wide data. but then again if i'm almost overweight and chris is overweight by the most widely-accepted metric, then maybe the problem is that the metric is worthless.

it finally snowed here last night. 0 inches of accumulation. but hey, better than rain.

4311
That sucks man, our lab passed away this summer at age 15. :( I use the gym as a retreat, music up and refuse to think anything negative.

thanks chris. i use the gym that way, too, but from time to time whatever is affecting me just has the effect of deadening me or killing motivation. it's always temporary, i'll be back on the horse tonight.

thanks man.

WEIGHT: ??? (172.8)
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: dead, combination of tired and drained/sad

- warm up

- MB toss x 12
really bad, only got a few past the white line.

- rest of workout

i think this is the second time recently i've bagged a workout because of feeling dead. gonna give myself a pass today because of izzie but that's not a good habit.

also, added 3 more lbs to the weight vest last night, which i think is all it can take. not sure where the other 2 lbs are supposed to go, there are no more slots.

you should change your signature, was my point.  :lololol:

i wonder if my work capacity is just awful. i never get 30 jumps in because by that point performance has dropped off so much that it doesn't count as ME work anymore.

my family's older dog, izzie, died this morning after getting progressively sicker and weaker over the last few weeks. she'd had tumor for a while and was mostly blind and deaf but up until a couple of weeks ago she was still spry, running to greet the door and wagging her butt as hard as she could to say hello. but then she pretty much stopped eating and that was that. my parents took her to the animal hospital this morning to have her put down peacefully.

she was 17.

rest in peace, izzie.

At this point, on TVS, you're Dreyth on adarq.org

Congrats, but I'm mostly boggled by the number of reps and that you PR'd so late. That's amazing.
