Stuffed Superdud: Bumpy road to respectable lifting

[idlehands]

It all read a bit like Bukowsky, but with a better snatch (cheap and trite double-entendre is deliberate).

Good god man
I can't tell if i want them to hook up or not yet anymore.
Will it ruin the seasons chemistry?

Goddamnit for making me post here again

Okay I just caught up. Okay so marriage is still the endgame here like I said last time, but let's flesh this out a bit - make a move at some point when it's good, which sounds like it happens oh let's see...all the time...then after you've become a thing - for pete's sake don't talk about it though, don't ask her if you're a thing, or have boring conversations about it - after a year or so of this, don't even propose to her, just set a date and get married on the beach somewhere. I mean you can tell her about it, don't like surprise her on the beach with a minister or anything dumb like that, but if she balks ahead of time just say "You don't want to get married?" with a slightly arched brow in the same exact tone you'd say "You don't want to go to the beach?" and she'll say "Well I didn't say that" and hook, line, sinker.

Listen to ithryn. He has a better handle on the situation than you do.

Then again, your Uber driver has a better handle on the situation than you do.

I say, leave it as it is and it's gonna be a success, it's got Ross and Rachel written all over it.

Didn't Rachel end up with Joey?

[SJB]

I believe they were called the Wailers

Thanks, could not place them for the life of me.

That was a great update SSD. I almost spit out some mocha with the checking your tonsils comment.

I lifted today! Well, relatively lightly but still.

Clean high pull + clean 1+2
20kg x many to warm up the elbow
40x1x2
50x1
60x1
70x1
80x1
90x1
98x1
105x1

Clean pull
110x3
120x3
130x3
140x3
150x3
160x3
170x3

Elbow feeling good. Must have shaken something loose recently. ROM still not optimal, but much better than before and almost no soreness.

[stuffedsuperdud]

Moar half-hearted fun:

Squat:
20kg x a few
60x5
100x5
130x3
150x3
170x3
180x3
187x3
170x3
whatever

Press 1.0
20x5
50x5
50x5
60x5x3

Nothing difficult but I'm sort of LP'ing this. Noticeable loss of strength on the right triceps, possibly from me babying that arm these past several months. Elbow felt better after the three sets of fahve.

Today was Lyudmila's last day at work, and she went out with one helluva bang, telling her boss to go fuck himself, throwing her badge at the security officer, and driving off the base at 2PM with a middle finger sticking out of the driver side door. Fear not though: she's actually somehow been promoted out of this whole mess, as some outgoing DARPA manager decided she was qualified to cover his existing programs, and she will only be a few blocks down the road. And hopefully in a better mood outside of work.

I've been under the weather for the past few days and training has suffered as a result. I also know that this week, I'll only be able to train today and Friday, if that, so coach had me fill the gap today with just:

Snatch:
20kg x many to warm up. Felt slow and awkward
40x4,3
50x3
60x3
70x3
80x1,3 (1st set was a clusterfuck)
75x2

Slow couple of days with no stories. Also, my left thumb and right elbow are kinda sore which isn't helping.
