Lost At Sea Lifting
Friedrich: I bet the islands off the coast are beautiful. We stayed on Koi Ya Noi for a week, and chartered a boat around a dozen or so island. Hong island is gorgeous.
Trump 2025 - Resuming The National Nightmare Of Peace And Prosperity (Part 2)
Scale would be the question for me. A watchman watching a corner in the event something happens is fundamentally different than a camera, or more accurately a system of cameras automatically aggregating the movement of millions of innocent people to be stored in a database and accessed retroactively - for whatever reason. A better analogy for your point would be whether or not I had a problem with a watchman following me around every single time I left my house, taking notes and recording my l
The Right Now Acting Left
Hearing lots of crying about the raid of Omar’s house……. Look, this is part of the game both sides play, they all use the doj they control to raid the other sides house. BOTH sides do this and BOTH sides KNOW it’s going to happen to them. Stop crying about these clowns getting raided, there is nothing YOU can do it about, worry about yourself because if the shit hits the fan none of that will even matter.
Old Guy Strength
10/14/26 Treadmill: 30 minutes Heavy Bag: 3 - 3 minute rounds Bike: 10 minutes Ski Simulator: 5 minutes Self-Propelled Treadmill: 10 minutes That was a pretty good fat burning session. I still have lawn mowing on the agenda today.
Dchris’s Grappling with Age
October 13 — 223.0 Training — Operator Week 3, Session A (90% of TM) Low-incline bench — 3×5 @ 205 Belt squat — 3×5 @ 360 Barbell row — 3×5 @ 225 Notes: Rest 2–3 min between work sets. 5am after the plunge. Got every rep, none of it easy. Worth noting: the prescription at 90% is 3×3, not 3×5. I had the rep scheme wrong in my notes. Happy to see strength is still up. I haven’t done heavy belt squats in a few months, nor BB rowed in years.. and that incline bench is maybe technically a rep PR. I don’t recall.
10 Miles Back Again
@simo74 Looks like it, yeah. It rained for about a week straight when i decided to put it away so it didn’t turn into a bag of concrete. Obviously, as soon as i did, summer came back. Work for today: 2 hours climbing. Steep physical stuff again because thats just more fun
Weird, but impressive
Straight-forward pressing day. Feeling not too terrible. The heavy set used the bare minimum amount of “push”. I feel like a dirty cheater when I do it, but I also know it is pretty effective. The lighter sets afterward are all BtN.

Doug Hepburn program
Good question — Hepburn’s stuff is about as old school as it gets and it’s honestly refreshing how simple it is. The whole idea is double progression: you lock in a weight, and instead of adding weight every week you add reps (or sets) with that same weight until you earn the right to go heavier.
A Firefighter Family Man’s Training Log
I live/train in the Upper Snake River Valley. I am 90 minutes from Yellowstone and about 90 minutes from Jackson Hole. Last year was a very warm winter. But it can get to -25 to -30 degrees Fahrenheit. Personally I like to gentle breezes of the Grand Cayman, but I cannot get my wife to retire their.

Glad they caught it. They found a cancerous spot on my arm about a month ago and froze it off. I’ll definitely be going back yearly. It’s such an easy thing to get checked.
TM79’s Training Journal
Pool Swim (25 Yard) 2,500 Meters (2,750 Yards, 110 Laps) 54:25, 1:58/100 Yards, 740 Calories, 133 BPM Comments: This was a wild swim and (likely) a heck of a way to end the summer (trunks) season. The thing about swimming is that it’s boring. You just stare at a line at the bottom of the pool. No music. Just raw dogging it. A man and his thoughts….. and you can only breath once every 5-10 seconds. LOL So today I decided I was going to play a little mental game. I decided to start my watch and just swim.
