 Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17888 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | I sit at work, and I don't have to move too often, maybe once an hour or so, every time I have stood today I have instinctively tensed my quads and have received the most glorious achy feeling. I have enjoyed it very much. | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17888 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Wednesday, 30th May, start 16:00 Bench, very raw 20 x 15 20 x 15 20 x 15 And now in the manner of Cornelius Tempington 40 x 3 50 x 3 60 x 3 70 x 3 80 x 3 90 x 3 92 x 3 95 x 3 97 x 3 100 x 3 I can't say these are fun, well I could put it would be untrue. At 100 I could barely lift the bugger back up, but I spoke to the physio about these and there is definitely mileage in them, he also approves of ditching the Sunday bench session. Close grip 65 x 8 75 x 8 85 x 8 95 x 8 105 x 4 First time in three figures for these in quite a while. I was never going to get the eight, but I decided to give it a go and to see just how far I could get. Four was reasonable, I'm happy enough with that. Physio tonight and the arch in the left foot is reappearing and the knees are happier, so finally, after what seems like an eternity or two, there is light at the end of the tunnel | ||

You may dislike the name but it is worth a watch, there are times I appear to be in genuine distress, it must be quite amusing. Cosgrove does Cornelius one week, high volume/low weight the next, then Cornelius the week after and heavy the week after that. So only one week in four is heavy and he informs me that it is working quite well. Of course his reasons and aims are different to mine, but it still works. | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17888 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Friday, 1st June, start 16:00 Quiet tonight and very hot Tbar row, weights in pounds 50 x 20 75 x 20 100 x 20 125 x 10 150 x 10 175 x 10 175 x 10 175 x 10 I had a thought that I might do twenties for a change and a bit less weight, but three sets in I thought "bugger this for a game of soldiers", twenty is far more than I thought it was and the weight reduction would have been severe so I reverted back to the norm. Tbar shrug, still pounds 150 x 10 175 x 10 200 x 10 200 x 10 200 x 10 Pulldown to front, narrow grip, kilos now 50 x 10 60 x 10 70 x 10 70 x 10 70 x 10 Sweating like a good 'un and again quite a bit of it went in my eyes. Not sure what tomorrow holds, it is the Derby and my favourite race of the year - the Epsom dash, the fastest five furlong sprint course in the country. I have to go to the post office in the morning so I may just swing by the bookies on the way back to see if there is anything I cannot resist. So maybe, I can say no more than that, then again, maybe not. | ||

 Sugdens crazy old person. Member 4936, 7288 posts SQ 270, BP 155, DL 270695.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Probably stupid thought but at thought came to me. I feel pity for people who are down on their luck, so I make it a point to try to be positive. Sometimes I get kicked in the nutz investing my heart to help. Is being arrogant and rude to a person only being kind an intelligent thing to do? Funny thing is dude you weigh as much as me, I am nearly 2 x your age and stronger. And for the owner of the playground in my neck of the woods, fix the stupidity on the site. 3 mistakes I pointed out and tried to help you but your self contaminated blood made you a hard guy. Benched some Logged some tomorrow 5am I change my ways. Sugden Barbell thank you! I had a rough day! | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17888 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Wandered up to the post office around nine this morning, called for tea and toast at a cafe round the corner just after that, I did call in at the bookies as I was passing and I did place a cash bet in a creature in the Epsom Dash so I will be watching at 3:45 this afternoon. I did also get stopped by three different people while in transit and had three different and rather enjoyable conversations as a result. So basically a half hour chore took two hours. Is this what retirement is like ? | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17888 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Up early this morning and away to pick up the good Doctor and then on to Stalybridge to referee the annual push pull, there were a sight more pushers than there were pullers but it made for a relatively quick and entertaining day. Very hot and rather tired, I'll have to work a nap in sometime soon. | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17888 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Monday, 4th June, start 16:10 Deadlift 60 x 3 60 x 3 60 x 3 100 x 3 140 x 3 160 x 3 180 x 3 200 x 3 210 x 1 Deadlifted in the squat boots tonight which was a good move, the 200 triple was the best of the recent efforts, no problems at any point and especially not with grip, I did a single at 210 just for the sake of it and as it was only 10 kilos more and a single I did not give it the respect it deserved and as a consequence it was harder than it should have been, won't make that mistake again. Best news of all though it that the knees are happy. A while longer for the knees and a bit more focus on the actual lift and I could be borderline cheerful in a while.  | ||
