    “More practice” seems like every coach’s mantra, caramel, lol. Go for it!

    I am hitting the weights today. BOOM.

    Good morning workout today. Best deadlift session I have had in a month. Pulled 3x5x225 for work sets. Pretty good for an old guy. More weight next time. YAASSS!

    So...I started with an unplanned “cold sprint” this morning for a “warm up”...LOL! There was a Pikachu in a Mimikyu costume about 3-3 1/2 blocks away at the Pokéstop/church.
    I ran like Hell!!! :p

    I'm enjoying the last two weekends of rehab and non training, Started with yoga practice this morning and tonight we're heading to an outdoor party that is a Woodstock themed event. The outfits, music and food will all reflect that era. I'm guessing Jimi Hendrix may show up. ;)

    Tomorrow, we're taking part in the annual "Tower Toot" fundraiser, which is a steep 1.5mile up hill hike to a Tower on a beautiful Ridgeline. Great views of the fall foliage, coupled with music, food, etc. Looking forward to it.

    The "slacker" season ends on Nov 4th, when I start a training regimen under a new coach. Will feel good to get back in the game!

    Stay Cool.

    Hey kids, had an eventful weekend. For starters the Porsche/Lamborghini car show and needless to say it was filled with boys showing off their toys and prospective buyers. I had no idea those cars cost so much money. There was a used one for $375k. That was the only one with a price tag on it. Go figure. Outside of that, my new program has loads and loads of squats. My thighs has the feeling of jello (lol). I had the honor of watching the 2019 USA Powerlifting Raw Nationals on Sunday. 9 ladies were in the 84+ kilo category and I couldn't stop screaming and cheering them on. I'm beyond motivated to keep training. Welcome newbies. Have a great day kids.

    @caramel - So which one is now in your driveway, a Porsche or a Lamborghini? :)

    BTW: You're turning into a powerlifting machine!

    Great day kids, There's one word to describe my body and it's simple "SORE". I had a serious cardio circuit including running. I'm ready to eat a ton now. Have a great day kids.

    DJ, I left the car show empty handed. They just didn't have the right color (lol).

    You're right, I am becoming obsessed with Power Lifting.

    I am so envious of all of you with your regular workouts! I have done little to nothing this past while. I am headed out on vacation where we are hiking for 6 days. Am so looking forward to that. My life has been far too busy and I need to slow down and get back to my regular workouts. Hoping vacation is the kick start I need.

    I have been bad this week...mostly working on my cosplay, not getting workouts in, but still plenty of walking, so I got that going for me!

    This past week I finally made it back into the gym for the first time in several weeks, and decided now would be a good time to transition away from my full-body program into a classic push-pull-legs split.

    Between doubling the chest/back work on their respective days plus dealing with returning to lifting, DOMS got a hold of me something fierce the last couple days! Not sure if I regret having missed leg day but being able to still walk, lol. (Actually I did deadlifts on back day, so my hamstrings have been telling me all about how much they missed working out...)

    Happy Monday kids....Hope all of you had a great weekend. My weekend was cardio loaded. I ran a bit and it was nice until that heel spur started burning. Cryotherapy is really helping. 3 minutes in -110 degrees Celsius is absolutely cold but it's definitely helping with a few annoying aches. On today's menu was squats, banded squats and deadlifts. Hot HIIT to loosen up the tightness. By now you should know I am a SUCKER for punishment. Have a great day kids.
