Sun., 9/07. 224.6#. So., I was marveling at the aisle of useless fitness stuff at the local Target, when I found one of those big neoprene torso wrap things. Marketed for sweating off your belly fat, I assume. I see it as a nice under-belt back warmer.
OHP: 45x..., 95x8, 135x5, 162.5x2 - bar was unbalanced with a twoie on one side and a fiver on the other. I didn't care. 182.5 x 3,3,4 - hit a good groove there finally. 145x8,8,8.
Cable Row: 195x5,5,5,5,10.
the neoprene corset comes off, and I fall out of it like a slow-cooked boneless leg roast.
Side Delts: 15x12,12,12.
tamales, scrambled eggs, and chicken wings. and watermelon.
back actually feels really good. I can easily see this developing into me jamming myself into a scuba suit one size too small. Next stops will be compression shorts and something for the shoulders.

Dips: 5, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10. gettin' there. Where, I dunno, but I'm gettin' there.
the neoprene corset is under the shirt today. somehow, it makes the belt even harder to prong. and the sweat. oh, the sweat...
nuts & cheese - excuse me, I should be more specific: pistachios and Jarlsberg (adjusts monocle).
venison stew, watermelon.

Sun., 9/22. 221.6#. Sunday funday here. All the serious lifters taking up all the squat racks, and then there's us. Since there's no spring collars left, everything goes up by 5 pounds from the screw collars.
