I found a big 5 and the manager let me put in a bunch of rain tickets on what i want. So now when the shipments come in they automatically hold my items for me and call me to tell me to come in ;0) I told her i owe her big time! I officially love her now lol...

Bought some cheapy weider setup.. its pathetic, but, ive discovered how to utilize it to suit my needs for the mean time ;0)

Works getting stupid now. I flat out refuse to wear a face mask. 100% refuse. Unless i feel sick or feel like i May jeopardize others, then i would... but im not fuggin wearing a tshirt fave mask just to wear it... no way. Fire me first. I cant have restricted breathing. Seriously anything covering my face triggers frantic things deep inside my soul... ill freak dafuq out... now my respirator that i cant wear, free flowing breathing with that. Cant even tell its filtering my breathing. But, cant wear that. A tshirt around my face though, thats accepted lmao...

These fools are bragging about lower numbers than other states.. said everything they’ve implemented is working as expected... yet, they’re not testing anyone.. the numbers are not even truly known.. its crazy..

Today was sit ups and a two mile walk. 1/2 mile worth running... my lungs still have razors in them. Not sure wtf is going on. Never had this before and back in the day i was a big runner... never experienced this before... but I am up to a 1/2 mile instead of 1/4. So that’s progress ;0)

I think people that purposely hoard and sell during the pandemic should get a visit from Dr. Kevorkian! Fuckers. Calisthenics and Cardio has been a breath of fresh air! I have been making crazy ass recipes and eating a lot of meats !! My Max Burritos have been a Godsend and the Fam enjoys them; especially with Guacamole. I have to give my entire clan a huge thumbs up on getting along, 11 of us under one roof(not including my girl:ugggh)miss her)! I am soooo over it and send out good energy to everyone and their families! I’m just doing 1/2 ml Test E 2x a week and watching my macros. I must say that I am enjoying being this lean!! I am not a fan of isolation and look forward to getting back to training my people and myself full force. This situation has really impacted things around and in my life. I have much appreciation for my forum family and glad that I have what I have. I am not one to take things for granted. I know you are the same. Of course my physician is still making me come to my appointments.Damn money grubber!! I hope my burritos/wraps make you think of me in some small way. Your a good friend!

Hell brother i think about you a lot lol.. especially when I’m eating my max wraps n burritos. I always give credit where credits due and when I’m talking to others i simply say ~Brother Max taught me this trick~ I’ve gotten a lot of the things I’ve implemented straight from your words.

I am super stoked to hear that you’re holding up brother! That everything’s going good with the fam... I believe i may have missed what got everyone under a single roof though?

Im definitely grateful for the forum and you guys that i call my brothers. That i have this place i can come to, to escape and read up on and in...

I didn’t even think about guac... I’m buying some this Saturday to put with next weeks meals ;0)

Sending some good vibes your way brother!

The prices are just insane here... even on ebay... i cant wait for everyone to be stuck with their new stuff trying to resell it for their money back later lol...

I just met a youngster tonight who made me lol for real though. I just bought some small plates 5’s, 10s n 20s and a dumbbell bar to put them on... i responded to his ad and he told me there was 3 others in front of me but would let me know if they don’t show up when they said they would... well he shoots me a message and just says .... next ... and gave his address.. i pull up and he just says.. oh thank god... then brings me the items... he said he turned the last 3 buyers away because he was going to be damned if he’s selling weights to any of the dudes who look like they never stepped foot in a gym before but now all of a sudden looking to build a home gym... so he offered them his elliptical, stair climber or bike but said he wouldn’t sell his weights lol... we both ranted for about an hour about the very dudes he turned away causing the spike in costs of weights... he said its the resolutionaries who crowd the gyms for first 2 months of the year and then pay years of membership and don’t show up.. i told him i call them tourists and he lost his shit lol... pretty cool kid if i must say.. we talked shop and he said I’m welcome to come work out anytime on weekends if I’m on the west side of town ever... then i thought how i literally just said this never would happen and here it was... happening lol...

Pretty cool to see such a youngster so passionate about the lifestyle.. he’s in his 3rd year in college, with decent size indeed. Hes going to be an effin monster. No doubt about that. Maybe he will end up in the hood if down the road he proves worthy lol.. not that theres any doubt... tonight proved to me that much. Thats some class act shit right there turning people away only willing to sell to another brother in iron. At the actual normal going rate for used weight.

Karma in a good way. Almost like a circular cycle of karma! That is cool as shit!

Well.... I legitimately just accomplished complete destruction of my arms with 2 - 25lb dumbbells and a 45lb adjustable plate dumbbell... along with that resistance band cheapy gym I’m modifying here and there to better suite my needs and fit my body lol

So, despite there not being that satisfaction when lifting heavier.. there is a new born satisfaction by way if revelation... I’ve been looking at this the completely wrong way! Now i have the opportunity to 100 percent not only perfect my form while using dumbbells (as most of my work is actually with them anyway) in the most strictest of fashion, but i will also be doing so many reps and volume while doing such... Which means, by my mathematical equation, that by the time I’m back in the gym, that same form and strictness will be second nature and just how i do it.. its like martial arts or like bull riding and pretty much any sport right? Repetition and practice. Day in and day out. Until its second nature. The subconscious grabs the reins while the consciousness focuses on the here and now..

For instance, i realized tonight that my wrist curls are retarded. Im lucky that I actually have not experienced an injury of any kind.. its like i have pigeon toes, but for my hands instead... they just go the wrong way. It took so much focus and concentration to take it slow and correct it as it started to drift... I’ve never noticed this before. But its very obvious this is how its been done forever by me... my left arm kickbacks, horrible. I made myself drop to 10lbs on the adjustable plates until i felt it had some control.. my tricep pushdowns... tsk tsk.. cheater cheater rear delts sneaking some assistance in there... reduced resistance until it was in range to concentrate on hitting the intended target.. not its friends to.. which actually proved to be a little challenging.. which tells me this has been the way its been done all this time...

So, I’m actually a little excited now despite feelings prior to tonight. These or this rather, is something I’ve actually thought ive been doing and now i see it needs more work... so nows the opportunity ;0) put my note pad and old school hand held camcorder in the garage. Going back to what i use to do for bull riding. Mental notes first. Where i thought i messed up, what i could do to rectify and practice on overcoming it... then actually watch the ride and see how in-tune i actually was... i was never right in the beginning lol.. last few years though, i new the mistake just before i made it. And that was the mistake. So I’m going to do this now.

Anyway, as I’m trying to hold my phone to type this I’m legit shaking like a paint can shaker. My stomachs a little nauseous and im going to go ahead and fix some post workout, post workout fuel.

Hope everyone’s had a kick ass lockdown day. I braved the fuktardery of Costco, Trader Joes and the grocery store... I’m starting to notice its not sitting well having these people with their stupid effin signs barking orders my way to stay 6’ apart from others while I’m clearly further than 6’ ... i understand they have to or risk being shut down after being fined and charged a misdemeanor.. per governors orders... but people better stop letting that fake power get to their head. Fools acting like they’re the police and shit lol. Fake ass gestapos. As long as they stay 6’ away from me though, all will be well ;0)

Still hanging in there. SO bloody busy.. my workout game has just been consistent and strict. A brother here laid me out a solid plan and already couple weeks in... 15lbs melted off and my body is absolutely freaking the fuk out lol... waiting for my new machine to show up (another new one. The last one wasn’t good enough)

Just wanted to check in and let everyone know im alive ;0)

Todays a glorious day lol my adjustable dumbbells finally made it in. Im super stoled and excited.

Works effin kicking my ass lately.. Maxs shred plan is definitely doing just that. But i think the lesser calories is whooping my ass at work. Lol

Past couple weeks have all been super heavy days. Risers and mainlines. Demo work and stacking new. Completely taxing my body for sure.

Its going to hit the 80’s this week! Im going to for sure disappear into the forest this weekend. They closed the parking lots and trail heads... cant close the side of the road. Im going in ;0)

Fasted 4am hour on bike, chest day in afternoon. Hard day at work. Planted seeds in my new planter box i built and now its time for a shower, a shake and bedtime!

The woods part sounds great!! Yeah the lower calories is definitely a bitch! I love to bulk up and cut down and it isn’t about the clean food part; it’s about the- I want more on my plate! Lol
