It's official, 40 plates, 8, 25lbs and a near hernia later........ I can leg press a fuchin ton!!!!!  My ass, back and legs have hit a level of soreness previously unknown.
25 set w/o straps on shrugs, working for reps......ended up with near 1k reps from 225-405.
Triceps, I peaked out 20 repping 240
Incline bench 8 sets of 10 @225

Church and shooting range is all I have planned for tomorrow. 

[spc]

I spent a god AWFUL amount at the range.  Put 200rds down range and even the cheapest .45 is $21/box.    I took it out to 30yds for 50rds and every one hit solidly inside the 3rd ring.  Gotta get different sights, between the haze of gunpowder and low lighting, acquiring the sight takes a lot longer than I'd like.  Got yelled at for double tapping  I've got about 1000rds through the RIA without an f2f.  Not bad for a cheap weapon. Came home reeking of gun powder, grabbed my 'ammo-can-o-PMCS' and did some cleaning on the back porch while enjoying a beer. (sharpened up the spyderco a little too, it's been on cardboard duty and needed a fresh edge)  Life is good.

Thus the reason I reload, the price of .45 ammo. Wifes CCW class sucked they gave em less than a minute to police their brass when they were done firing. She brought home 7 out of 50 casings. I was a little peeved.

Reloading may be in my future, but first I'm going to find a good gun club.  I'm sick of paying the range $20/hr and having to buy their ammo.


On Topic:
Just under 3 hours tonight.  40 sets shrugs w/o straps pyramid build up/down peak 405.  Tricep Extensions, rep'd 240.........hit muscle failure................twice........in 20 sets....10 at peak weight.    Did a 25 minute cool down on elliptical at 180 SPM.

yeah, i HATE bench too. especially their stupid form. lower to chest, HOLD FOR 1 SECOND, press, then HOLD some friggin' more, then rack. so....needless to say, not much. heheheh. but a lot for a chick. I will leave it at that. LOL

I've been out of the gym at Docs request for a few days and decided to not do any back work today just to keep neck strain down.   Did 15 warmup and 15 cool down on elliptical,  about 30 minutes of bag work with 20's, reverse grip curls and behind the back wrist curls.

I could barely grip the steering wheel on the way home


Joined a small, semi-local gun club that's out in the boonies.  Shot a little skeet, put 100rds through the 1911, tried a Glock 36 out.  Pretty impressed with the glock as a concealed, though it takes a little getting used to from a 1911 since it's about 1/2 the weight.   When I ultimately buy a more concealable piece it is definitely in the running and has a huge price advantage of my other option, an HK USP compact.

WHOA!!!! thats a little ridiculous.  Ay my local outdoor range of awesomeness , knob creek range, you pay $12(i think, could be 10) for all day.  $12 open to close.  And your own ammo.  woot woot.  Gotta love KY.

The place I go now is 300 a year in dues, unlimited use 24hrs a day, very private, 2 locked gates, and only 150 members.

Terry, you're more up to speed on the current supplement market.

I'm trying to find something with 500 or so mg of L-tryptophan, hopefully with a B complex and maybe tyrosine, omega-3s, and DL-phenylalanine.  Know of anything, besides simple protein increases and turkey? 
Either that, or straight shots of serotonin.  By the gallon.  I wanna drown my limbic system into submission.


Something with moderate glucose concentration would be nice.  The insulin helps the amino acids past the blood-brain barrier. 

[spc]

All the L-tryp supplements were pulled from the market by manufacturers in the early 90's.  Generally speaking, it was deemed a bad idea.  Googling you can find a few that appear to still be supplying it in the US (you may or may not get something with actual tryptophan content, these are the people supplying 'prohormones') or you can order from a Chinese or British site.  There are no legal problems, as the FDA never took any action.

Think it'll help with giving up the smokes?  Hell it just might.

Close. 





I read about it being pulled from the shelves, but I thought it had been corrected.  It was incorrectly recalled because Japanese suppliers had contaminated a supplement batch ( ).
Guess I'll go back to supplemental protein until I find a trustworthy supplier.  I'm still trying to find the correct dosage, anyway, without having to worry about blood testing.  Some MD/PhD's are saying up to 2 or 3 GRAMS twice daily, some as little as 0.2 g. 

You still a fan of St. John's Wart?  What's the loading time?   

How's the heavy lifting?  Busted any more bars? 

[spc]

The SJW keeps pretty much just adds length to my fuse. I still lose it pretty bad, it just takes longer.  I've given the crazy heavy stuff a rest because my neck got jacked in the wreck, I'm hitting a chiro tomorrow. I have however been focusing on my forearms a lot and put the heavy bag through a wall last week while doing weighted bag work. The gym owner got pissed and took it down, think I'm gonna buy my own and put it in the garage. 

[wladziu]

Par for the course, then. 


When did you wreck? 

[spc]

2.5 weeks ago.  My neck feels better now.  I was in the attic changing the AC filter and there was a fuching possum up there.  I freaked, jumped, hit my head on a fuching rafter and ran screaming like a little girl only to return later and shoot the SOB.  I don't fuch with those little bastards, they can be mean as hell.

when i lived in arkansas i had one come into my house through the front door. i was back in my bedroom and apparently my brother in law didnt get the front door shut all the way. i was reading a magazine and heard something rustling around in my room. looked over and the little fucker was taking dvds off the shelf. i asked what the f%$k they were doing and where did it come from. just looked at me, then walked out. i grabbed the bat and followed behind. it ran into the bathroom and unfortunately was cornered so turned around, made some kinda battle cry and charged me. i got lucky with the first swing, dazing it well enough to swing again and kill it. had i missed the first time, well.....it might have hurt. it was only a juvenile but still, very, very aggressive when cornered. i was shocked at how fast it moved.

stomp on em. i hate em.
