So how is the new gym you train at?

Not nearly as much equipment and free weights as I am use to, but also not nearly as many people, so everything pretty much balances out. I have access to everything I need, and the 24/7 aspect is really nice.
 
24/7 is the shit.

I am suffering from the aftermath of 4th of July partying. I ate a lot of shit, drank a ton of beer, and smoked a few packs of cigarettes. On top of it all, I wrestled with friends on hard wood floors. I body slammed one buddy. My legs have a lot of bruises on my legs and shoulders.

Other than that, I feel tip top. A few days of fun won't do massive damage to my training, and it was good for the soul.

Fuck yeah! Squats felt damn strong today. I am starting to feel like the good ole days. I upped my calories substantially, because I had hit a dieting slump. I can see the difference big time in my power and strength. My forearms really seemed to have a lot of power.

I blew out my shorts on the third set of squats. They were too big anyway. I had lost so much fat in my mid section that my camo shorts were starting to bag, and they were hanging off my ass when I went down for rep 10 on set 3. Sounded like a bomb went off.

I am going to lift like this for a few more days, and then I will decide on a new diet plan, because my last one stopped working.

Woto woot! Dips look better. I struggled with the military pressing today, but I think that is just because I spent myself doing dumbbell presses. My forearms are starting to look cool hell. I am starting to see all of those tiny little muscles like a strand of small cables. The forearm work is finally paying off.

Thanks follows. Truth is, it feels like I found the power to make the decision and maintained the fortitude to stick to it from somewhere other than myself. My brain chemistry seems to be balanced out. I think I have had a lot of good fortune lately, and it pulled me out of my slump.

Great workout. I am going to Savoy it, because my calories are being cut dramatically, so my power power and strength gains will probably stop for a while. Damn SLDLs were insane today. I felt very happy about those. Squats are looking good.

Fucking calve raises keep being interrupted by cramps. Anytime I go over 160 lbs on the seated calve raises I catch cramps in my calves. Its pissing me off.

Forearms are growing like crazy. If anyone wants to increase the size of their forearms, go buy a cable roller. These things freaking rock.
 
Every time i come in here you've taken a few leaps forward! Looking awesome :)
 
315 lbs squats for reps already. wtf!!

Good fortune. I needed something help me pull myself out of my slump, plus my last job was killing me slowly. Jobs can do that. The wrong ones can suck every bit of life right out of you.

Hell yes and dammit and the same time! I showed awesome gains in areas that I had been struggling in, but that wasn't my goal. I thought I had cut enough calories to trim down, but my weight has stayed pretty stead at 250. I am getting stronger, but not all that much leaner.

I will try to stay on the bright side and remember that progress is progress even if it wasn't in the areas I was aiming form.

Well I cut calories again, and I feel like shit. I barely made it through the workout. I only cut maybe 300 calories from my daily intake. Maybe something else had me feeling shitty.

I have some sort of injury of the hip. I'm not sure what. It never hurts until I squat and even then, it only hurts when I wear a lifting belt. I am unsure what is going on there, but I decided to squat narrow stance, and it didn't bother me.

Fucking calve cramps are pissing me off. I am unsure of the cause of that, too.

Hell yeah mofo! Great workout, and I needed it, too. I had been facing a 5 day long funk. I took off today and opted to work Saturday. I could barely even get out of bed this morning. I dragged myself to the gym, and seemed to come out of the funk by my second set of bench presses.

If there is a God, and I get to see God for judgment, I am going to say" Oh hey God, you remember that bipolar thing you gave me..." at this point I am going to kick him as hard as I can in the balls.
 
Way to go Kelju. nice to see you get excited again.
