don't know particulars but he was surely stealing whatever it was to buy drugs. my youngest brother is mentally ill and a hardcore drug addict. it's a very sad state of affairs when i'm relieved that he's in jail. deeply sad, too, obviously. but that's a general feeling, not specific to him being in jail.

There is no problem that is too big to be solved.  I know what he is going through.  And he needs to find somethign in life that he is passionate about that will fill the void that he has, and drugs obviously is not the answer.

finding something he's passionate about would help, but he's powerfully mentally ill, so that's not really going to be enough. thanks for the words, though.

then probably some time to ponder over his life, does he really want continue to do crimes that could end him in prison, think about the people who are affected by it, relatives i.e. you parents, etc, would be good for him.
how long is he in for?

That's a pretty strong standing DB OHP. I'd be struggling to do that much seated.

I mean, the root of most mental illnesses is a problem with the heart and mind.  Some physical aspects of it can be genetics, but after all we all inherit something inevitable; human traits/characteristics/flaws.  Obviously there is a GREAT mind and body connection, and mental illnesses do cause some chemical imbalances in the brain and vice versa, and there are meds that help chemical imbalances, BUT that won't fix the core problem that all humans have, which is this need to feel good, content, happy, joy, etc.  It's just that most people look for those things in the wrong areas of life.

thanks for the words, man. i disagree with you but appreciate the sentiment all the same.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: awake but kind of blah, not very amped

- warm up

- SVJ x 10
went for PR's, as prescribed. best was about 1.5 knuckles over the vent. no idea how high that is, i'll try to remember to bring a measuring tape the next time i'm at the gym. right knee tweaked on the third jump but i shook it out and stretched a bit and it was okay.

- pull ups x 13
went for a PR, strict form. weak

- push ups x 32
as above. weak. my posterior delts fatigued first. what's up with that?

- GHR sit up, elbow to opposite knee x 60
max reps in 120s. not as horrible as the above. didn't have a spotter so i used GHR, think i could get close to 79 with a spotter on the ground.

- stretch

WEIGHT: 179
SORENESS: hip flexors, abs
ACHES/INJURIES: left hamstring not painful but i feel it
MENTAL STATE: motivated but rushed

- warm up

- SVJ x 7-8
better than the other day, most jumps were a full knuckle or more over the vent.

- squat 325 x 5
this is a PR, i think, but it was not a great set. knees caved too much on fourth and fifth reps. otherwise fine. i blame my sore abs and hip flexors.

- OHP 45 x 13
went to F on left arm, right arm followed

- various chin ups and pull ups

- stretch

a good friend of mine is in town for like one day and i don't get a lot of chances to see him because he lives in california. so i cut this workout short. time to go chill. depending on how i feel on saturday i might try for a PR in the squat.
