Var's TP-PT Journal

[Little Wing]

Missed yesterday (worked a 13 hr day) and today. Found out last night that I'm going camping/hiking in Maine all weekend. I'll be back in the gym Monday and consistent from then on. Between the shoulder/neck injury and this little trip, I havent been myself lately. I'm so excited about heading up to Maine. It'll be my first mountain of the season and its a 4000 footer!

Good News = Var is coming to Maine

. Bad News = girlfriend

I live by Mt. Katahdin. Not much of a climb but I hear the nude hiking is fun.

 

[Var]

Katahdin isnt much of a climb or Speck??? I've always wanted to do Katahdin. The Knifes Edge looks amazing!!!

[PreMier]

Maybe its because you DIDNT do legs?

Will you take some measurements?

Thanks man! I know I shouldnt, but I just cant go heavy on shrugs without them. Its the only exercise I still use them for. Might be time to throw them out, huh?
