LOL tnx man...I will go for 55's next week and see what I can manage. My endurance has gotten better but my general strength on all pushing movements sucks!

yea they are never fun but I'm a hard headed SOB that bottles things up and I just explode when stress levels peak. I have been trying to hold back all summer b/c I know she is taking summer classes working full time etc etc and has alot on her plate but something jsut snapped LOL.

All is well now past 2 days we have talked it out and things should be on the ups...I hope



Posted by: DeadBolt

Sorry for the MIA...I had an archery tourny this weekend again in PA. About a 5-6 hour ride and we drove out friday morning at 2am and stayed at a hotel till sunday afternoon. Had a great time shot pretty good and did a shit load of hiking. The tourny was held as a Denton Hill Ski Resort which as you would guess is just a bunch of MASSIVE mountains for people to normalls ski down. Yea well we hiked up these bastards. Man what an ass whoopin this weekend was. Hot humid and a shit load of hiking.

I didn't go to the gym mondya for cardio b/c my legs were so sore (still are but oh well) yesterday I had to take continued learning (thats what the state calls it I call it bullshit) for my EMT cert. So right after work I went to the class and then needed sleep b/c I was so tired!

Today I did get into the gym before work and had a great workout. Deadlifts were down but I expected it...I adjusted some lower weights and really had a solid workout!

Deadlift
305*7 r/p *1 r/p *1

BB Row
135*20 r/p *8 r/p *8
~~time to add some weight here...I did these to fatigue not failure I still had more in me.

Pulldown
135*8
~~those BB rows took alot more outta me then I though

DB Milt Press
45s*19

DB Side Lateral
30s*13

Rope Face Pull
100*18

BB Shrug
185*18

Abz 260 reps - 5 exercises

Cardio:
6 min HIIT cardio walk/sprint
10 min eliptical 80% MHR

Done! After this weekend (monday morning) the scale said 184...this morning the scale read 180!!! I know most of that weight was water weight due to the shit tastic food (lots of cold cuts and crap) but I was 181 last week so that means I lost another LB!!!

I have a bet w/ my girl that I can reach my goal of 170 by sept 15 and she has her own goal. The winner gets waited on hand and foot at the firemans convention I'm hoping I win!

I shoot an 05 Switchback LOL...I'm deadly out to 50 yards. Thats why I went to the recurve...when I can group 5 outta 5 in a 2inch square at 50 yards its not hard anymore. I wanted more of a challange....

All the bows on the market these days are deadly though...my buddy just bought the new diamond black ice and its stellar bro!!

sept 8th starts early bow and I will hunt right through till jan 31. I'll only be hunting w/ the bow except opening day of shotgun...its a tradition w/ everyone. I will probably be taking the youths out w/ the shotgun for an early youth hunt but theyw ill be doing the shooting I'll be doing the guiding.



Posted by: katt

what do they shoot with shotguns? Birds? How young of kids?

New Jersey offers youth hunting days for the children before the woods get over crowded...they do it for all animals throughout the year to get the kids interested. Youth shotgun for deer is during the rut which is also in the middle of permit bow so since I would be hunting that day anyway I just bring the children out and make it as fun as possible for them. Last year we shot a deer I'm hoping we get 2 this year one for each of the kids!!

Here are my two lil buddies I brought out last year...





Posted by: katt

Nice pic! I bet they have a great time!


I never really thought about the option of shooting big game with a shotgun.. we use rifles all the time, since we're out for elk and all...

It's always fun hunting in the rut though,, the animals are so distracted



Posted by: the other half

very nice bow. i just got my bear kodiak 50# recurve set back up.
i havent hunted with a bow since i left montana in 88. i felt really good to shot it agian. although it will take a lot of pratice for me to hit 5 out of 5 even i a 6 in square. katt n i take a 10 day elk hunt every year. just the two of us. and then for deer we take my daughter and sometime one of her friends.
there is nothing more fun than see the look on their faces when u see something. my daughter missed her doe last year-with a rifle-hopefully she does better this year.

They love it!

Yea out there ya'll use rifles...here in jersey we aren't allowed to use a rifle. I can't wait to go for elk w/ my recurve though...man what a rush it will be to be within 15 yards of such a massive animal!!! God I can't wait LOL.

Thanks bud! Glad to hear you set the kodiak up...I was shooting a bear tigercat before this one. They are great bows! I'm confident out to 20 yards w/ my recurve no further but this season if I hunt w/ it I will limit myself to 15yards and under. Just outta respect for the animal! I dont believe in marginal shots...if that arrow soars I'm bringing meat home.

Sounds like ya'll have a great time every year going for elk...I hope to get out there one year for it. Its a big dream of mine!

I enjoy hunting w/ someone new to hunting more so then hunting for myself....you are correct the look on a younging face after the harvest an animal is priceless! I'm hooked ont aking kids hunting there is no bigger pleasure in the woods for me!



Posted by: katt

I know my hubby wants to get back into bow hunting...

But me...... shit, I have a hard enough time not shaking at 100 yards... I can't even imagine the adrenaline rush I would get at 35...

Oh dont start I'm warning you b/c its the end of all its all you will want to do!! And 35 is far LOL...try 6-18 yards is the average shot on the east coast. Out there a little more...but when you can smell the animal as it exhales and you can actually feel the warmth of the animal its so close thats when you get the full affects of bowhunting. I love actually being close enough I can put the arrow between the 2 ribs I want its an awsome thing!

Well I love stalking w/ the bow...I plan to do alot more this year but last year I did it alot. Its my favorite form of hunting! I have started doing it more and more prepping for the woods out west so I'm confident in my abilities! I'm not good at many things but sneaking into a deers bedding grounds and lettin an arrow fly I'm damn good at LOL...I'm a short fat guy but deadly on my feet w/ a bow in my hand



Posted by: DeadBolt

im plotting when i can get legs in...im covering a few hours for the person coming in to take over my shift so i will get out at like 9 am and start my next shift at noon 1200-2000. I will be super tired and legs is going be a killer but I think I'll just og light and suck it up right after work!



Posted by: b_reed23

THAT is a beautiful bow! I agree with Katt...I can't hunt with a bow...I'm just not patient enough...I hunted with a Shotgun up north, and use a rifle now that I'm in Tennessee

Yea some people just can't do it LOL...I use to hunt w/ the shotgun and muzzleloader for the longest time but it lost its affect. I'm debating selling mine all off heh.

In my hunting club there is one woman hunter and she is a champ. My girl has no desire to go out hunting...she has made an effort over the past 2 and a half years to learn alot about nature and deer and appreciate them but she wont ever hunt. Those are her words not mine LOL...would be awsome though.



Posted by: DeadBolt

Well never got a chance to do legs...I worked a 28hour shift and we were non stop running calls the entire shift. I went home got a few hours of sleep and now I need to head up the country to bail and stack hey...my buddy called me and said he needed some help. So Iw ill go put some tree stands up this afternoon but morning is hay time! Im sooooo tired 6 hours of sleep in 3 days isn't enough!

She hasn't worked out for a while b/c she is taking double classes over the summer and working full time. She just doesn't have the time but next week is her last week of summer class (which is really a crazy schedual) so she said she will start working out again.

She has however continued to lose weight steadily and is looking amazing! Now I just need to get her to add some LBM and and she will be amazing LOL. I want her to start some strength training...nothing crazy just something light to start out with so we will see when she is ready and I will help her out with that. I dunno why she doesn't start a journal...she keeps one anyway so I told her to make one here everyone would love her! Maybe this time around she will heh...

I went to go do that saturday but I ended up bailing and stacking hay all afternoon. We did like 8 wagons so by the time that was done the summer heat was at its peak I was friggin DRAINED! I said F it I'll save it for another day.

Hopefully this year I'll have 3 different properties to hunt...two will be bow only for the early season and my private land I will most likely reserve for gun hunting so I really dont need to hang any stands just yet but wanted to get some up if those other 2 properties dont go through.

Thursday into friday I worked some killer hours and then couldn't sleep so I hung out with my girl. Got like 5 hours of sleep and woke up at sunup to go hang treestands but ended up bailing and stacking hay all day! We did alot and I mean alot heh but ended up not hanging stands b/c I was just to tired. Went home saturday evening showered up and went out with my buddy and some friends b/c he is moving to florida tomorrow so it was our last night out. I kept the diet good had a salad no drinking! Then went to go home and stopped by my fathers place to find someone poured paint thinner on his truck so we spent the night washing his truck and hating this town.

Sunday got another 3-4 hours sleep then went to shoot my bow all morning up on the mountain w/ a few guys then came home and relaxed with my girl. I slept like a rock last night though heh.

This morning went in for some cardio HIIT style!

20 minutes HIIT treadmill
1 minute walk / 1 minute run intervals
starting heart rates after first minute of each 83/130
ending heart rates after last minute of each 150/188

Negative NJ has the worst gun laws in the country! Our first responders are cops though...I dont get outta my rig till a cop has gone in and declared the scene safe!



Posted by: WantItBad

In WI in some cities they require EMTS to be law enforcement certified so they can carry if they are first on scene and shit hits the fan

I wish LOL

NJ protocols state we stay in our rig until deemed safe and if we feel threatened to bail out and relocate several blocks away to wait for PD...I'd rather just carry and solve things. Sure would make life alot easier w/ alot of these sum bags I pick up!

hey!
I saw an episode like that of Walker, Texas Ranger!
The firetruck pulls up to put out a fire..and all the gangmembers were whooting at them...so they backed off...while showing immense acting ablility to want to put out the little old lady's house!
Right after they backed up and stayed inside the cab of the firetruck where it was safe, as we all know, TV firetrucks are bullet proof...along comes Walker and Trevet in the trusty Dodge Ram....stone face...emotionless....they pull up and commence to right the wrong!
WHOOO!!!!!! Exciting stuff, there boys! Happy ending and all!

Im staying tuned in for the series LOL Im HOOKED!!!!



Posted by: DeadBolt

Well heres another "you know your doing good when"..

"you know your doing good when"... a cheat is adding an extra little bit of dressing on your salad and counting out 7 crutons b/c those are the only carbs you had all day oh and 2 spoon full of oatmeal this morning



Posted by: DeadBolt

I went low in cals today I can feel it when I get this hungry at night.

Today did cardio on empty stomach..

M1- 2 eggs 1 cup brocoli 3 venison sausage links 2 tablespoons of cooked oatmeal (was to full by the time I got to that LOL)

M2- pear

M3- 6oz grilled chicken 2 cups mixed veggies

M4- chicken ceasar salad w/ 7 crutons 1 hard boiled egg cucumbers 1 apple

M5- 1 cottage cheese double 1 plum (still to come)

Yea I know I said I ate low LOL...I slept in extra late (10am) then got up and went to the gym for cardio. By the time I got some food cooked and everything it was 11:30. I ate the pear at 2 (was doing so many things around the house I forgot about food plus the heat kills my hunger. Got to work at 6pm and ate my dinner b/c i was starving then ate again at 9 once again starving now its going on 11 and I will eat my CC and try to rest and not think about food b/c im all out LOL.

We'll see what happens 2morrow...there will be more cals just from carbs b/c tomorrow is a anerobic day. Odds are there will be a slice of bread w/ 1tsp of jam, 1 1/2 scoops whey w/ water (pre workout) and a full serving of oats, 1 1/2 scoops whey w/ water (post w/o) but that will hopefully be it for carbs. I know another meal for tomorrow will be 6oz chx 2 cups veggies. What ever else I eat will be a wing it meal.

Posted by: katt

And no one got him last year..... he's still out there.....

down in the draws.....

I'd better be upping my cardio



Posted by: the other half

there is a reason why he is big.
we got pictures of him on three different occasion. all at night.
he didnt get big being stupid. we will have to see who is smarter this year



Posted by: DeadBolt

Best of luck to you guys in getting him! He's a brute! I have faith man is always smarter just do all you can it willc ome together.

The other year we had a 6 1/2 year old doe running around my property nobody could manage to get...I made it my mission (and a bet with my buddy) I could tag her by seasons end. I enjoyed that season so much...I used every trick I knew but she was so damn smart its not even funny! They dont get that way overnight though!



Posted by: DeadBolt

Heya ya'll hope everyone had a good weekend. I went down to south jersey to visit my father for the weekend. He needed some help doing work around the house. Didn't get much sleep all weekend and bustedmy ass for 3 days.

Came home monday afternoon thenw ent straight to work. I have to go back in a few hours as well...pulling some extra shifts this week!

I tried going to the gym but the pain just stopped me! My back is THROBBING and my shoulder is KILLING me! I didn't even get through my warmup before the pain was just to much. Now I need to get to work and I doubt I will get a workout in this week no time to rest up properly and I'm not risking injury.



Posted by: katt

helping parents around the house... familiar story for us as well.. It's like "while you're here, could you??"

Rest up - better to heal those injuries rather than make them worse! But you know that..

Using DBs should help either strengthen whatever is weak in your shoulder,

or at least relieve some of the pain because you arent reaggravating it.

For now, take some ibuprofin and ice dem hurtses

hey DB



Posted by: b_reed23

get well soon db!!!!!!!



Posted by: DeadBolt

Heya ya'll sorry I ended up taking the week off from the gym! I was just working WAY WAY WAY to many hours and getting no sleep. Im glad I did b/c I feel much better after it. Body is feeling better as well. Back pain is gone but shoulder pain is still there!

FISHORCUTBAIT - Theres no strengthening a severed rotator...just strengthening everythign around it so I can get by day to day lol.

I had qualification yesterday for a piece of property to hunt and went hiking saturday w/ a buddy of mine. This weekend I put a few miles on each day so the klegs were a bit tired this AM lol.

BUT back in the gym as always and keeping w/ my diet of course! Also started my new workout and I LOVE IT! The new exercises felt great to do and next weeks should be even better b/c I will have adjusted to the weights and I can move some real numbers around instead of the light ones I used today.

Deadlift
275*9 *2 *2

DB Row
60s*21 *6 *6
~~have to add alot more weight next week lol

HS High Row
140*13
~~up the weight here as well!

WG Cable Row
150*9
~~lower the weight next week and keep form

BB Milt Press
115*13 *5 *5
~~up next week ever so slightly

HS Side Lateral (single arm)
100*11

B/O Lateral
30s*18
~~up the weight again

DB Shrug
70s*16 *6 *5

Abz 150 reps total - did lower reps high weights on these will do that for a while now.

Shoulder therapy

Cardio 10m HIIT Treadmill (legs were to wobbly after this weekend and the deadlifts lol)

All in all a great workout I felt really good. Went light b/c it was a new workout and I just took a week off but next week I hope to really put some nicer numbers up for everyone lol. After eating like crapola all weekend b/c I was away I kept my numbers decent and was still 178 this morning. So after no working out all week and eating like crap I remained the same weight. I was happy about that.



Posted by: Burner02

looks like a good workout....but..u used bb agani for mil press...aren't you going to nix that for DBs for a while?

I was using DBs for my Milt Presses but it hurts like hell for me to get them in position. So I do my Military Presses in the smith machine where I can limit the range of motion so i dont have to bring the pressure to low. With the DBs I would hurt myself every time trying to get them from my knees up to my shoulder then pressing them up from that height. I will try this for a little bit to see if it helps.



Posted by: Burner02

gotcha. hope it works out!



Posted by: DeadBolt

me too LOL



Posted by: DeadBolt

Just found out I have to go to court next month some bitch who isn't even legal is bringing me to court. I got into an accident back in 2000 and this shit is still going on!!! No idea WTF is gonna happen but I barely remember the friggin accident.

Posted by: DeadBolt

Burner LOL

Well alot of shit has happened lately and its major life changing crap to.

Ill post the workout first then get into it.

I enjoyed this new workout went light and just eased myself into most.

Inc DB Press
55s*11 *4
~~ only one rest pause b/c I couldn't get the DBs up the 3rd time LOL and no spotter

Low Pulley Cable X Over
40s*9

Pushups
BW*11

DB Curl
30s*13 *5

BB Skull Crusher
70*6 *2

Next week I will do 3 rest pauses for them instead of 2 but this week had to ease into the new workout. Nothing else b/c I have alot to do.



Posted by: DeadBolt

Now for everything else.

I am moving for sure...about 45 minutes away from where I currently live. New house and all that good stuff only thing is its in 3 weeks. So I will have to re-arrange my work schedual, I will also be leaving my fire dept of 5 years tomorrow (really hard for me to type my resignation letter this morning), leaving alot of friends, have to find a new gym (that really sux I love my place), I have court next month some time which will determine alot, I am still holding out for a new job around here which is a never ending battyle and is driving me crazy, I wont be able to go on my vacation. And to top it all off my girl is leaving me b/c of the vacation...theres alot to go with that but I'm not getting into it. So right now my life has gone to shit and theres nothing I can do about it. I'm sure I will be gone from here for a long time very soon. Not sure how life will be day to day right now but I hope things workout for the best b/c its to the point I can't deal with it right now my stress level is through the roof! And to top it off the only person I can ussually go to is breaking up with me so its really shitty right now!



Posted by: Burner02

well, shit, hoss..sorry to hear about that.
Hope it all works out. I'd suggest you should move up here...we have fires and deer and stuff to shoot at as well....
Sorry to hear about the GF...we've both been thru that, so we know how that is...
u should stay...if ther's one thing I know...its that coming here does help.
take care



Posted by: Triple Threat

Sorry to hear about the rough goings, DB. Here's hoping that things start to improve soon.



Posted by: katt

If it wasn't meant to be,,, it's not meant to be dead.... It's hard, but there are billions of people out there,, and you'll find that "perfect" gal,, the one that loves to hunt, appreciates your job,, and loves you for who you are.. There is a person out there for everyone.

It hurts now, but in the end, it will be better for you and make you stronger... take it from someone that's had alot of years of "making me stronger" ..hahaha.. it's all ok,, you're a great guy with a good head on your shoulders



Posted by: b_reed23

I second what Katt said....also, she is not the only one you have to turn too...I know it's not the same, but you have all of us as well



Posted by: DeadBolt

Well things got better then worse then better then worse. Its a never ending fucking battle but I did get in to the gym today after a hellish shift for some legs! Never did em last week so the weights are pretty sad but its a workout non the less!

Squats
225*14 *4 *3

Leg Press
360*13

SLDL
185*8 *3 *3

Sitting Leg Curl
100*13

Seated Calf Raise
90*17

Abz

Started lean extreme today and I am enjoying it on the first day. I was beat tired after work so I took a little nap then took my second dose of LE and hit the gym. I felt very energetic; weak but energetic non the less lol.

Can't wait to see how it does for me!

Me and the Mrs have talked all week and were fine until tonight where she pissed me off beyond belief!!! I dont know why she would act like that knowing the problems we have. Alone she is a ball of moosh but around our friends she has to act like a hard ass and try and be better then me. I dont understand her...like she is still in highschool trying to fit into the kewl kid group. Its fucking bullshit and I'm sick of it...I have matured beyond that and she had better figure it out or else!



Posted by: DeadBolt

Well little by little things are getting better! Not sure WTF is going on but its coming one step at a time. The Mrs and I are stable for now and I plan to leave it that way lol.

Went away to help my father do work at his house. Build a new wall partition for the dogs and did some other odds and ends. I also sprained my ankle in his back yard (fuckin hole covered w/ grass) so no gym today! Tomorrow I will get in there and cut out the deadlifts but the next few weeks are going to be very busy! I have alot on my plate!



Posted by: the other half

hey deadbolt, u know there are a few things that are great stress relievers, the gym, your bow, and your guns, just to start, get out in the woods and shot a squrriel, or some stumps. if u are like me, a day in the outdoors is some of the best medicine for me. keep the head up and take care of #1.

Sounds to me like you're just going to have to keep her locked in the bedroom.

oh, my bad.



Posted by: WantItBad

Sorry about all the bullshit you will get through it



Posted by: DeadBolt

katt and theotherhalf...LMFAO you guys are great! So when is elk seasona nd wherew is the closest motel i can stay at?

Everyone thank you for thwe kind words sorry I've been MIA for a while!! Well here it goes!

Since I was last here i did go away on my extyended weekend vacation and it was a total FLOP! Big waste of money if you ask me. My ex (yes I said ex ) and I did nothing but fight. After that bogus vacation which stressed me out more I broke up with my girlfrien of 3 years...then 3 days later I quit the fire dept of 5 years, then the next day I packed all my shit into my truck and move an hour and a half away from everything i have ever known!!!

So pretty much my life has made a complete 180 I am way out of my comfort zone, alone, and now fat. I haven't been to the gym or even exercised in ages, life has thrown alot at me and I pretty much broke down for a few weeks doing nothing but mope and shoot my bow every now and again.

Yesterday was my first step at moving on and I went hunting for a few hours with my brother. I have been sick for the past week with a nasty cold/cough but I had to get out in the woods! I am getting better little by little but I will give it another week or two then i will start doing some cardio (outside) and some circuit training b/c i dont have a gym nearby anymore. I am still investigating though LOL.

So all in all my life has fallen apart and shattered but i am piecing it together bit by bit ever so slowely and soon enough iw ill be back on my feet in full swing! I am still working with the hospital so I commute and hour and a half each way 3x week for work but I do enjoy the area I live in. I have a TON of space, built my own archery range (ill post a pic of it later) from 5 yards to 40 yards I have deer in my backyard (shhhh dont tell anyone though I'm saving them for another 2 years so I can have a real wall hanger, and my new hunting spot is only 15 minutes away! So I think things will really turn out OK as long as i dont ever think it!

Oh yea and now that I have my computer up and running I will be around again...man i missed all you guys!

burner, there are a few other things you can do in the mountians that sound like a few other animals. i've heard sounds that resemble coyotes, moose in the rut(thats the interesting one) and deer huffing at you, and growling bears. and most of these are just from our tent or bathroom.

Man I haven't worked out in the past few weeks and shit man I can fuckin feel it. Every day after work I feel like a truck hit me I'm so sore from the stupidist shit. The other day I was watering the garden and stretched out my 150foot length of hose and started pulling it hand over hand when i was done. I woke up the next day and was sore as hell. I was a damned fireman and use to hump around hundreds of feet of hose every day and it never bothered me with 120lbs of gear on now a simple garden hose makes me sore.

Bullshit I say pure bullshit!

This is the funniest song ever...my brother has it on his myspace and I just had to post it LOL



Folks, Id like to sing a song about the American Dream
About me, about you
About the way our American hearts beat way down in the bottom of our chests
About that special feeling we get in the cockles of our hearts
Maybe below the cockles,
Maybe in the sub cockle area,
Maybe in the liver, maybe in the kidneys,
Maybe even in the colon, we dont know

Im just a regular Joe, with a regular job
Im your average white, suburbanized slob
I like football and porno and books about war
I got an average house, with a nice hardwood floor
My wife and my job, my kids and my car
My feet on my table, and a Cuban cigar

But sometimes that just aint enough to keep a man like me interested
(oh no, no way, uh uh)
No I gotta go out and have fun at someone elses expense
(woah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah)
I drive really slow in the ultra fast lane
While people behind me are going insane

Im an asshole (hes an asshole,what an asshole)
Im an asshole (hes an asshole, such an asshole)

I use public toilets and I piss on the seat
I walk around in the summer time saying "how about this heat?"

Im an asshole (hes an asshole,what an asshole)
Im an asshole (hes the worlds biggest asshole)

Sometimes I park in handicapped spaces
While handicapped people make handicapped faces

Im an asshole (hes an asshole,what an asshole)
Im an asshole (hes a real fucking asshole)

Maybe I shouldnt be singing this song
Ranting and raving and carrying on
Maybe theyre right when they tell me Im wrong...
Nah

Im an asshole (hes an asshole,what an asshole)
Im an asshole (hes the worlds biggest asshole)

You know what Im gonna do
Im gonna get myself a 1967 Cadillac Eldorado convertible
Hot pink, with whale skin hubcaps
And all leather cow interior
And big brown baby seal eyes for head lights (yeah)
And Im gonna drive in that baby at 115 miles per hour
Gettin' 1 mile per gallon,
Sucking down Quarter Pounder cheeseburgers from McDonalds
In the old fashioned non-biodegradable styrofoam containers
And when Im done sucking down those greeseball burgers
Im gonna wipe my mouth with the American flag
And then Im gonna toss the styrofoam containers right out the side
And there aint a goddamn thing anybody can do about it
You know why, because weve got the bombs, thats why
2 words, nuclear fucking weapons, OK?
Russia, Germany, Romania, they can have all the democracy they want
They can have a big democracy cakewalk
Right through the middle of Tiananmen Square
and it wont make a lick of difference
Because weve got the bombs, OK?
John Wayne's not dead, hes frozen, and as soon as we find a cure for cancer
Were gonna thaw out the duke and hes gonna be pretty pissed off
You know why,
Have you ever taken a cold shower, well multiply that by 15 million times
Thats how pissed off the dukes gonna be!
I'm gonna get the Duke, and John Cassavetes,
and Lee Marvin, and Sam Peckinpah, and a case of whiskey,
and drive down to Texas and say.....

(Hey! You know, you really are an asshole!)
Why don't you just shut up and sing the song, pal?
Im an asshole (hes an asshole.what an asshole)
Im an asshole (hes the worlds biggest asshole)

A-S-S-H-O-L-E
Everybody
A-S-S-H-O-L-E

Muscle memory will be your savior...... after a week of sheer pain!

That's what keeps us there,, just the thought of going through "that" again.



Posted by: DeadBolt

I will love every moment of it!!! I live for that and in this new house I think diet will be much easier!

Plus my new partner is going to workout with me and is very health concious so it will be a good influence!



Posted by: Pylon

Yup, I'm going through the same thing now. I like to think of it as my penance for not being in the gym for the last few months.



Posted by: Burner02

the iron shall set you free!

I shoot a compound as well...mathews switchback

Also shoot 2 different recurves. Recurves are more challenging. I haven't shot my compound in ages but b/c I sent my hunting recurve out for new limbs I have to hunt with the compound...pulled it out of the case and its the same as it always was 5 outta 5 arrows in a 2inch square from 5 yards all the way out to 50 yards. At this point its no challenge but i love hunting so if its what i have to use i will use it LOL. But if that deer is within 50 yards its TOAST!
