I would hate to be stuck with only 1 beer, though. Even though they have many delicious varieties, their stout tastes like shit.

Yanick · 08-29-2006, 12:47 AM

all seems to be in order in here.

btw, heineken owns all beer!

**Dale Mabry** · 08-29-2006, 05:20 AM

Hey, Yan...I'll be in NYC for the US Open next weekend if you want to parttake in some beverages while I am there.

Bah, I think Heineken is way overrated. I had it in Holland and it was better, but I swear to God it's all skunked in the US.

I concur about it being skunked here, although I have never been to Holland. I do know that all of the good Canadian beer is skunked in the US when compared to the actul good stuff up there.

**IainDaniel** · 08-29-2006, 09:38 AM

I seriously think the green bottles are a big problem. They let too much light in.

**P-funk** · 08-29-2006, 10:06 AM

teh US Open is a fun time. My clients used to give me tickets every year.

The worst part about it is waiting in the huge line to get into the Stadium. The subway ride out there is packed as hell too.

Did you figure out where you are going to stay?

Weekend of the 9th, I may get there early Friday, or I may wait til 3 or 4pm, don't know yet. We are definitely going out Friday and Saturday from what I have been told.

**Dale Mabry** · 08-30-2006, 09:55 AM

Bench Throw-80+bar 4x4
Plyo push-up-4x3

Low Intensity Push
Bench Press-225 2x12, 1x9, 1x11
DB Shoulder Press-35s 4x12

Assistance
Chest Flye-45s 2x10
Tri Pushdown (Single Pulley)-90 2x10

Med ball over/under-4x30 seconds

So, today sucked, high reps, nuff said. Switched to single pulley for the tri pushdowns, double pulley was maxed out. Couldn't get all reps in on bench, kind of rushed the first couple of rest intervals, trying to keep with 2 minutes when I should have went with 3 since the reps were so high, oh well. Stomach still feels like shit from the weekend.

Bakerboy · 08-30-2006, 10:36 AM

Instead of bench throws why don't you get yourself a skinny girlfriend and bench throw her? Just an idea. She's kind of cute.

I'll take 2.

**Dale Mabry** · 08-31-2006, 12:18 PM

Plyos-
1-leg jump to box(30")-4x3
Multi-jump to box(30", 40")-4x4
Lateral Scissor (Ladder)-2 sets each side
Lateral Shuffle w/change of direction-2x20 yds each side

Did some decels and sprint form work afterward.

My jumps sucked ass today, don't know if it is from overtraining or because I have been sick. May need to consider unloading a week, I will know better tomorrow after I Power Clean.

**Dale Mabry** · 09-02-2006, 10:50 AM

Today-

Power Cleans-185x2, 225x2, 245x1, 245x1, 225x1, 225x1
DB Power Snatch-90s 4x2

Med Intensity Pull
Cable Row-180 4x8
Reverse Grip Pulldowns-180 4x8

Assistance-
Pullover-70 2x10
DB Curls-40s 2x10
Rear Delt Raises-35s 2x10

Strength felt good, power not so much. Both 245 sets on the Power Clean required me to step in to the weight or I would have lost it. The bar didn't travel as high as last week which is in line with my plyos being not as good. My guess is that my CNS is tweaked and needs some time off which makes sense with strength being fine but power dropping...Deloading commences next week after 2 days off. Good times.

Dale, with your fancy footwork you would be a killer on the dance circuit.

**Dale Mabry** · 09-05-2006, 12:13 PM

So, today was the start of deloading. I did mostly core stuff with some light cardio intervals.

Snatch Grip Figure 8 walks-115 4x10 yds
Zercher walks (Backward/Forward)-4x15 yds
Reverse Squat-Just fucking around to see if it did anything, it really didn't.

Cardio-8.5mph 30 second intervals, 90 seconds rest 15 minutes

**P-funk** · 09-05-2006, 02:42 PM

I can't believe it! We've got no food, we've got no jobs, our pets heads are falling off!
