Try the TRX.

I am not sure what that is?

I had a pretty beast workout of wednesday, i smoked out my dips with 135 lbs hanging i did 2 sets 5, 4 reps. I was talking with a young guy there, maybe 17 years old... now that i think about it haha i am only 22 so yeah.. anyways he was super depressed after he watched me do my dips and was asking a billion questions about my workout and lifestyle >_< haha and my cousin was there, it was weird they were so impressed and i was rather disappointed i didn't get the 5 th rep on the second set.... After talking to them its kind of clear that there ideals in life just aren't overly ambitious and pushing for more and needing more just isn't a necessity.

Todays workout had its moments, my chest was really sore yesterday and today as well, i could not get it to loosen up no matter what i tried and i only got 2 reps @ 225 lbs on the flat bench bar bell, you win some you lose some and I'm ready to win =D Got 3 and 1 rep @ 3 plates while doing my dips, and my head was feeling buggy, i have been battling a cold for the last 2 weeks and i am very pissed off about it... being sick shows weakness... and i am not a fan of that... My girlfriend is coming home this weekend so some cuddles should make me feel better =D Life in the broader spectrum is amazing at the moment, its just fighting the hell out of me in the day to day....

Had a fantastic workout! I am still sick and my breathing/oxygenation was not good but the workout was =D Hit all my numbers, my ongoing injuries are feeling really good, did lots of stretching and manages to stitch out my extremely sore muscles which completely failed to recover from mondays workout, but thats life of being sick... Did my new ab workout again.... OMFG i am loving it! gives a fantastic burn and does not touch your abs =D Did cardio... i have not done any cardio since the beginning of september... i have been on and off my cold and having the girlfriend... but i did it today, got 6 miles in 12 minutes if you work the math through thats averaging 50 km/h, which is satisfactory =D i will probably work that up to 30 minutes and kick some butt this winter, plus i am looking into spandex pants so i can unicycle in the cold... ooo yeah!

Minecraft is officially released this friday! SO EXCITED!!!! been playing it since early alpha and like may/june ish of 2010 there was about 40 000 purchased copies when i joined, nows there over 4.1 million and 15+ million registered users, this game is going to be insane!

Unicycling in winter= brain injury.

Unicycling in winter= brain injury.

Under regular circumstances yes, i will be wearing my snowboarding gear though... $160 burton helmet, Anon goggles, and a bandana for the face. If i attempted it with a hat i would over heat and destroy my noggin....


Had a decent workout, nothing overly exception, was having a lot of breathing issues from my cold and flem build up in my throat. I did 11 miles on the spin bike at a cool 50 km/h average which includes warm up and cool down. It was a decent day.

There seems to be a weird shift at the gym... For some unknown reason all the regulars that have been there far longer then i have, have recently started noticing my hieght vs my weights, and have been asking me for rather in depth details on different workouts and how often i do it and they are always disappointed... Apparently hitting top weight every other day is weird, and expected that kind of performance out of yourself is weird, and wanting to push for much more is also weird. I don't get it... i am there to get shit done. I used to idolize these people and was in awe of there size and strength, after a while of body building and seeing my own progression none of them seem impressive anymore, there lifting form is weak, there quite un even and a lot of them are jerks... I am going to keep on keepen on =D

Life is such a weird thing... People seem to really take note when someone is giving off a positive vibe, i have been a bit depressed lately with my girlfriend begin so far away and not being able to help her from day to day with what ever, i have been sick for 4 weeks, and i am just feeling generally down... but if you look at the whole picture my life is starting to come together at an alarming rate and i am extremely happy, so i tell people, if i am complaining i am just getting to picky.

MY workout today went well, did some negative @ 305 lb dips after my 2 successful reps, did 5 really nice clean reps on the flat bench bar bell @ 205 lbs, did my new core workout, i have been trying to name it... i believe the yoga pose is called the cat stretch or something, so maybe i will call it the lion stand >_< It is the epic version after all =D

Todays workout in one word... CARNAGE!!! I wasn't feeling overly ambitious... nothing special, i forgot 1/2 my shorts (the inner spandex liner in the laundry...) and figured it out about 5/8 of my way to the gym so it was a 10 minute walk back, and then restarting... So i got there later then i wanted to, with my hip now feeling achy because of all the walking... I got stretched and it was all going well, i felt pretty good but nothing over the top and i was kind of tired if anything... I started with some flat bench which has become a usual warm up for me and i did 2 sets 3 reps @ 205 lbs... which is no record but i didn't even almost feel it... I did not have a spotter and no one around i trusted so i just moved on to the bench machine. I have even fighting this thing for 2 months and hovering around the 250 top weight and sometimes hitting 270 with 290 as stack. I really wanted the stack... and today i got it >_< 3 reps @ 290 lbs... It was a beast effort! But my arms just were not warming up... So i then hit dips... did 3 reps at a warm up with 3 plates and wanted the 4th... i have been dreaming about 4 plates for months... working so hard, through injury and disappointment... i had a valiant effort at it. I do not consider lifting myself into a up start position a rep although i do lift myself, so according to my standards i got 1/2 a rep... i got down and 1/2 way back up before i lost it, i was not able to lift it after that so i did some nice and easy 6 seconds negatives with the 4 plates, 4 reps, and called it for that, i dropped to 3 plates and did a set of 5. I did my 10 mile sprint in 19:45 which is a FANTASTIC time for me seeing as my previous best for the year was 20:10. I was forgetting to breathe because my legs were not tiring... and forgetting to drink water because i was barely sweating... i think i may have broken this 5-6 week cold and i could breathe, which seemed to make everything easy... so i made it hard >__< I had a request today to film and yotube a few of my workouts because some people were rather impressed, and not just randoms but some big guys that have been at this A LOT longer then i have O_O it was rather flattering =D

Monday, had a decent workout nothing over the top... had issues getting a pump going, was stiff during my cardio but still got 10 miles in 19:43.

Wednesday, had a MUCH better workout, i had not recovered from monday and was feeling really stif and sore but i pushed through it, my cardio felt weak and sluggish but when i got to the 10 mile marie and check my time... i almost passed out... i did it in 19 minutes even... i have NEVER gotten 10 miles in the time. Just had a great all round workout, chatted up some people and showed some young guys some new workouts with the dip belt. It was just a good day.

Did not have an outstanding workout, i just lacked the pump... i tried and tried and tried, and had some great sets but just couldn't get myself into that "zone" I did my 10 mile sprint in 19:30, it was okay? Sunday i will be taking ym girlfriend so it should be a better workout =D

Sounds like you're getting burned out from always pushing maximal weight.A cold shouldn't last that long.Injury is around the corner with those dips.

Depsite my best attempts i just had a fail workout... I had a good sleep friday night, and a decent sleep saturday, but saturday after noon i had a nap with ym girlfriend and she fell asleep on my arm funny and it basically just re ignored my right shoulder... i don't know if its actually re injured or just aggravated but it killed my workout, i couldn't stretch it very well and it was extremely sore. I did my 10 mile sprint in 19:43, 3 plates on my dips, 185 flat bench, 145 shoulder press, i tried my best but it just wasn't working....
