I'm that guy. From the thing. Animation Director, Co-founder @animdiversityfund, Indie Game Dev making @bestgooddog, other stuff, sometimes I lift things, sometimes I smoke meats. Hi. Also Sammie the Velociraptor lives here.
Four Years Ago Me really wanted to make Now Me hate him, didn't he?
I purposely left a placeholder 🤌 animation in for when you eat or drink consumables and this is my favorite comment from the stream lol
Squatty Squatty time. Front squat sets of 3 up to 215#, felt good. Finished with 2 sets to failure each of Front Squat Holds, Leg Extensions, Leg Curls, and Reverse Hypers. Training time 50min.
Sunday is International Bench Day, right? Sets of 3 to 205# (205 needed a 2/1 split, whoopsie). Felt good! Finished with 2 sets to failure each of Ab Fallouts, Seated Rows, Reverse Hypers, Bicep Curls, Tri Ext, Standing Leg Curls. Training time 45 min, done in time to take Sammie to the dog park.
I picked things up and put them down! Log C&P up to 180#, felt meh. Front Squats up to 205#, felt eh. Finished with sets to failure of Front Hold, Lat Pulldowns, and Reverse Hypers. Also brought the ole lifting belt in one notch. Felt good!
Tonight was Front Squat singles up to 225#, Front Squat Holds, & Reverse Hypers w/my “we don’t have space for a real RH so let’s make one out of a plyo box, cable machine, & spud belt.” Worked great! Training time 45min. Weight at session start: 243#. Down 7lbs since I started lifting again. Wheeee
Rage Doubles today on Bench. 3 x 2 x 205#. Finished with sets to failure of seated rows, ab fallouts, biceps, triceps, IYT raises. It’s nice to be able to walk downstairs from my home office and take things out on the iron. Training time 45min.
Farmer Walks! 50’ uphill/downhill, 3 sets of 175# per hand. Skipped the fourth as my back started getting a bit niggly and I ain’t fuckin’ around with that. Quick training today after being on my feet all day yesterday.
Had a great deadlift day that ended in a minor back spasm. Sets of 3 up to 300#, but my back decided to spasm after the second rep of 300#. I’m fine, just frustrated, and the spasms are letting up. I’ll do a Starr rehab protocol this week and get back to it soon.
Welp, not all training days are good ones, but I got it mostly done. Bench sets of 5 to 205# (took two sets this time-progress!) Silver dollar DL 5/3/1 x 300/400/500#. Failed the 500# spectacularly. Finished w/failure sets of ab fallouts, circus rows, biceps, triceps, IYTs. Training time 70min.
After yet another week off (this time for a mocap trip), I’m back. Log sets of 3 up to 190#. First rep on 190 was iffy. Front Squats sets of 3 up to 235#. Did the 235 as 3 singles (not on purpose!) Guess I’ll stay there next week. Finisher accessory was a 1.5 mile Sammie walk with Jess. 80min.
Busy week prepping for a mocap trip next week, so Thursday’s training day is today! Bench sets of 5 up to 205# (took 3 sets, so I’m staying there next time). Accessories all sets to failure- Circus DB Row, Ab Fallouts, biceps, triceps, IYT raises. Training time 45min.
