Keep up the great work everyone. New target goal for being cleared to lift is labor day. hope to be joining you all soon but mine will take a while to get back to w here they should be but at least I will be able to do it.

Thanks to @kaluuyaas on twitter for this Arkells/Bleachers mash up https://twitter.com/i/status/1420490452231413763

Ok all. So I want to find a fun suit (might go tux with fun vest and tie or bowtie) for a pediatric charity event. I want something that might put a smile on a kid or two and I'm fine with it being at the cost of the other adults thinking I'm crazy. I'm in the US and haven't found much. I don't want to pay what it would…

Sorry i haven't been around much. Finally starting to feel right post surgery. Hope all are doing well. Keep up the good work.

@jennacole12 sorry I'm late with this. Truly amazing, inspirational, fantastic and every other superlative possible. So happy it was a great day for you two. Your dedication and work totally paid off. I thought about posting a you did it gif to contrast the phrase that never shall be uttered, lol. Hmmm can't even lose the…

Ok this would be a suit accompaniment for me. Opinions on them? They seem more dressy casual but I think I am liking the shoe the more I see it.

lol but it's true

As we like to say, you get to choose your friends, not your family and often our friends act more like family than our actual family.

I wasn't trying to make you feel like *kitten* for sharing. Ugh. Sorry.

Everyone is killing it. Way to go. I had my torture test (Ct/Myleogram) on Wednesday and am scheduling back surgery for the end of the month. I should get to start lifting again around July 1. It's going to suck to see how much strength i don't have and I may have some limitations but I'm still so stoked just to see at…

Our thoughts are still with them three years later

Congrats on qualifying. I take it the shoulder is being less cranky?

Could you repurpose old-school barbell collars? Not the clamp kind but rather the old school, screw kind - something like these I wonder what the weight on each of those is and whether could find those on FB for sale or the like. I'd bet they weight around a lb.

What can I say, my Canadian roots are permanent https://youtu.be/gt3v7x5p4Fc

Definitely. My brain won't shut off even though I'm tired, so i can't fall asleep when I should thus making me more tired and snowballing the situation. Melatonin used to help but doesn't seem to anymore.

He played fine. Everyone was so excited to have him there, given the effort he had to put in it just to get there. They had a blast.

How is the shoulder?

The phrase - I'm your huckleberry came to my mind for some reason; along with a grin.

Part of me wishes I never would have found this thread and another part of me is glad that I did read the last few pages. @KickassAmazon76, @KosmosKitten, @ReenieHJ, @Miss_Chiev0us, @jjpptt2, @_sw33tpp3a_11 please know that you are in our thoughts.

My wife and I were chatting last night about certain things and how some friends are perhaps more one-way in their communication (receiving rather than supporting) and I mentioned to her that I thought that was why I liked this thread/group and a few others so much, because everyone seems so welcoming, encouraging, etc. It…

So under the category of other achievement that KAA mentioned a while back, this happened shortly before the pandemic (I didn't find this thread or my way back to mfp until after I was injured so no lifting gifs for me yet). Of course, this ex-NHL player more failed on the execution than I made the save but I can still…

JO, there was a guy who played in the charity event from Australia. Long trip to PA but worth it for this type of experience. He and his wife both made the trip and had a blast.

@MelG7777 I like this footage better, stopping former NHLer Darius Kasparaitis on a spin'o'rama breakaway move It's humbling to play against those guys, lol.

Better than Ezra

Enigma

Does this count? Still smh. Though the other angle is hilarious as it looks like I ninja kicked him in a bizarre way.

I miss our ham-bone so much, about broke down yesterday thinking about him and it's been around 4 months.

To add to this train of thought, I'd consider some shoulder stability exercises. Think things like the top two in this - Body blade exercises if you or your gym has one. The old school hold your arms out for minutes (I think of pe as a kid). There are a number of isometric exercises that are used for stability. They were…
