    I not complain.
    Funny thing though. Old people are supposed to become invisible, which is what i expected to happen at the gym. But lots of members, male and female, have come up to me at times and expressed admiration for what i do. Even though i'm a fkn pussy. The other week a female powerlifter type, high school age, very short, weighs nothing, squats 115 k, came up to me and said i am her favourite squatter! Go figure ....

    Luckily some people know to respect their elders. My neighbor Al will be 92 next month. He still hunts, scuba dives and does shooting meets. When I had a BBQ at my house with a group of my old co workers I invited him over. He was the center of attention. Keep up the good work my friend and enjoy the compliments.

    Weighed this morning, after 6 months of 16/8 diet, and my weight has gone from 85 k to 90.4. Time for a serious cut. I'll do the 5/2 which has worked in the past. I guess my press, which is affected by weight loss won't be going up any more for the duration.

    Heels raise. (80 k) 10. (90) 10. (100) 10.

    One arm chest supported rows. (25 k) 14. 13.

    Trap bar deadlift. Low handles. (67.5 k) 3. (87.5) 3. (100) 3. 3. (97.5) 3.

    training time 1 hour and 2 minutes.
