    No bueno. Si?

    Ah, nope I'm 6.2, Loïc is 6 feet tall.


    He is a Renaissance Man, learns by trial and error, doesn't need a special licence to do anything, not afraid to try new things, sure he made mistakes but he is still a Happy Camper/Sauvage of Pogo Pogo.


    Sure, he did get hurt, we all do when we go out and play.

    Please. We all know you really went over there to pick up that shiny pink kettlebell you bought from him.

    Not a garage, just a really big shed that's halfway finished. Cheap and nasty york bar on the platform, B&R bar at the back, and a new 28mm black bar from strengthshop (I like the way 28mm bars feel on my back better than 29mm). 100kg bumpers, 115kg iron, half decent rack (bought different j hooks though, the one's it came with weren't great) and a rickety adjustable bench that I fear might buckle and seriously fuck me up. Platform is a few layers of scrap wood with a nice layer of plywood on top. The layers aren't attached, they just sit on top of each other, but I don't think it's going to cause any problems. Thinking of rotating everything around since getting plates on and off the bar is a pain, and recording angles are limited.

    Cool, looks like a Ice Fishing Hut, how many times have you put the barbell through the window?, how long can you keep breathing with the window closed?

    They do look quite similar, although I think mine is a nicer shade of green.



    Thankfully 0 times. Minimizing the risk of window smashing is probably another reason to rotate everything around. Not sure what you mean about the breathing.

    That is a beautiful setting, I was just wondering if you had ever passed out due to a lack of oxygen, ice fishing guys usually just sit inside and hide from the wind and there wifes, they arent doing anything strenuous.

    Weird, I'm meeting up with a bunch of guys tomorrow at a pub and we are heading out to see the Toronto Scottish Rugby team play a "Big" game,
    many of my friend used to play for them and I played the game in South Africa.

    One thing you can say about chair squat boy, he's probably got a really high testosterone level.

    More shed pictures please. I really want a shed now!

    Forgot to mention the best part. This is what the other half of it looks like (the gym is actually an extension built after that exterior picture was taken). So inbetween sets you get to have a lie down, read the forums, make a cup of tea etc without having to go back into the house. It's a pretty cosy situation.
