My current goal is two-fold. One is to get strong as fuck, so I can start competing nationally when I turn forty. The other is to get big. 70's big.

My goals are:

1.  Lose weight, and
2.  Get 70s big, therefore
3.  Stay sexy for my wife.

Weights for me started as a physical challenge but very quickly became predominantly a head-game. I think that's normal

Seems to be.

I attempted to read this thread but all I can see in my head is Arnold Schwarzenegger's body with Roger's head sitting on top of it like the cherry on top of a horrifying shitstorm sundae that could reach out and strangle a person for looking hungry. I'm not sure Discordia is ready for such power.

It must be tested for science.

For whatever reason, I was a total creampuff today.  I DID the workout, but I was struggling the whole time.

And it wasn't Monday's berserk workout, either, because I've felt fine since.  I was just the lazy.  But I did it anyway.

I totally have those days. I'm always really grateful when I push through them because I always feel 10x better after sweating it out.

Yeah, and then Friday was lower body day.  We don't talk about lower body day.

Tomorrow, though, is bench day, which is my favorite day of the week.

The bench is for shoving all of your problems and disappointments straight up until they stop bothering you.

I use the deadlift for that. The Bench is my mortal enemy, and must be defeated.


On that note: my new bench program works as fuck. 11 lbs more in four weeks, as opposed to the 2 lbs gain during my last 12-week cycle with my old program.

This is who I feel about lower body day.  It must be DONE and DONE and DONE until it stops hurting, or I die.
