Post Edited: 14.04.2014 @ 16:56 PM by MuscleDemon Pikefingers said: Book your flights mate. I think there's a pretty good chance that we can have you sleeping on a floor (or in a cupboard somewhere). Failing that, the house in on the beach so you could just sleep there and be Florida's most ripped beach hobo. 600 is the cheapest they get nowadays unfortunately. Those goblet squats sound tricky. You never fail to make me smile with your absurd yet whimsical humour.  I may go to Ireland as well the week before so have to check dates but you are right as flights are likely to only get more expensive. With goblet squats the most challenging part is in fact throwing the weight up to position. They are really fun though and a replication of an alternative front squat. | |||

The more you berate him the more he will rant and try to prove you wrong.Wish him good luck or just ignore him please and then his tirade of nonsense may end or at the very least subside. Don't feed the troll. | |||

Pikefingers said:Strong deficit deadlifting there Mr S. I know it's not really how you're training these days, but have you thought recently about seeing what your 1RM would be? -Maybe just for s**ts and giggles (preferably not during the lift)? I failed 215 at the knees yesterday. -I think you should go an knock out a 220 just to remind us that you're the p4p deadlift boss. I hadn't thought about testing a 1RM and I believe it will detract from training efficiently. We can have s**ts and giggles aplenty in Florida. I checked the flights and they are approximately £600. Which is a bit much yet I still have it in mind to come. I am still the p4p boss, I don't need to remind you | |||

Post Edited: 12.04.2014 @ 13:40 PM by MuscleDemon Saturday 5th April 2014 5km in 35mins 45secs: 2km jog 1km sprint and walk intervals 2km walk First time long distance running in over a decade. Did it for fun and became inpatient after 2km and had an impulse to go faster. Explosive sprinting and stopping during the 3rd km followed by a 2km leisurely walk towards the finish line. Terrible time for a 5km yet I didn't care, it was still exercise. I came around 250th out of 300 or so people. Considering I had a relaxing walk for the last 2km I have no idea how I beat approximately 50 people.

Pikefingers said:Good to see some squats making it into your programme. They will definitely help you put on that next 10kg - and will also make you look more like a boss for the girls on the beach at my wedding in FL. Robster please, I am a boss with the ladies already. A further 10kg matched with my subtle charm will transmogrify me further in to a Demi-God. | |||

Funky_monkey said:60 second time limits on those events! 2.5xBW deadlift for 13 reps in 60 seconds was pretty impressive. Might host another one in September. Was good to see you. Ohh it was 60 seconds...thanks for making that point clear. Thank you for the comment! Would definitely love to compete again Yaman. | |||
