RAIDERS

Well it's football season. The Raiders are playing right now against the Broncos. I thought they were just getting their second drive of the game going. They fumbled on an end around, minus 15 yards. FUCK MY LIFE.

Oh, its 17-0 Broncos with 2:14 in the first half.
Ditka commending Gene Upshaw was ridiculously awkward.
SOOO the second half gets started with a punt.
Now it's 24-0 with 8:23 in the third. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK.
WOW. This is terrible. When did Lane Kiffin change his name to Mike Shula? The Raiders are playing terribly. Just terribly.
Hey, guess what! D'Angelo Hall fucking sucks!
OH THANK GOD! Ashely Lelie? 27-7, 13:08 in the 4th.
Now Run-DMC and Derrick Burgess are in the locker room getting checked out. Oh, marvelous.
Oh, hey. How does 34-7 sound. Fucking shitty is how.
The Raiders have officially given up. Maybe not all of them but Jake Grove and Robert Bust-ery sure have.
While the Raiders aren't doing nearly as bad as opening night against San Diego 2 years ago, they are still fucking shitty. I don't know what they need to do but Christ they need to do something. It's been 5 fucking years of this shit. And now it looks like its gonna be 6. FUCKING ENOUGH. Oh Great FUCK YOU MIKE SHANNAHAN! AL DAVIS FIRED YOU 20 FUCKING YEARS AGO! HE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW WHERE HE IS ANYMORE! YOU HAVE TO FUCKING RUN UP THE SCORE! NOW? REALLY? YOU FEEL THE NEED TO MAKE IT 41-7? FUCK YOU YOU ARE A FUCKING COCK BAG! GUESS WHAT! YOU AREN'T A FUCKING OFFENSIVE GENIUS! YOU'RE JUST HIRED WHO FIGURED OUT THAT ELWAY NEEDED A RUNNING GAME AND YOU HAVE BEEN COASTING ON THAT SHIT FOR A DECADE! FUCK YOU AND FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU!
Well thank god for Justin Fargas. OH IT WOULD BE HARD TO LOOK BETTER THAN DENVER TONIGHT? THINK ABOUT HOW THEY'RE PLAYING! WE SUCK! THANK YOU JUSTIN FARGAS FOR PLAYING HARD!
Hey! Look at that. Touchdown Ronald Curry. 41-14. Gross.

To paraphrase Jim Wendler, This song would be amazing if it was tuned a little lower and the lyrics were more on the screaming side.

Do you remember?

I should really wait until September to post this.

Umm, sorry sir. I must have tapped over it.

Rhodes and Vincent derided me last night when we went to the dinner with BFJ after benching. I'm going to be doing 5 sets of 3 to 5 reps for my main lift on what are now my squat and dead lift days then 5 sets of 10 for two assistance lifts and one ab exercise. I got a tire today too and I'm making it into a sled per the strong people's advice. I'm probably going to try to pull it everyday, just a little to warm up before lifting and a lot for some extra workouts. Wallingford is now the plan.

Deeds

I got behind in my posting, I don't remember a bunch of sessions. It doesn't matter anyway because I'm starting on some new shit. All that needs to be said is that I it a 405 squat finally and a 441 pull in Mass. Time for deeds.

I used up too much energy warming up my squats. 395 was difficult enough that I decided to leave with a 10 pound PR instead of possibly dumping 405. The 455 pull was gross as I was stuck about 6-12 inches off the floor for what seemed like a long time. It was too big a jump.

RE Bench

Speed Bench
95x4x3

I wanted to do a lot more but i wanted to get in and out of the gym so i cut the warm up short and i skipped the blue heat. As a result my shoulders were killing me after those 4 sets. So i called it a deload and left.

Not much to say about this one. I went from loving volume to fucking abhoring it. PS, the pumps sucks donkey dick. Hence my shrug reps falling on each set as my grip disappeared.

I wanted to do two more sets of box squats but I had to dump the third rep with 275. I knew I wasn't going to get it before I even got down to the box. My pulls were set up poorly. There as no tension at the bottom but at about mid shin the tension got ridiculous.

Low numbers=one group. Also I had a phenomenal night with my highest bench of any kind. Also I think I finally learned how to take a handoff and I can get it with my arms locked and my shoulders tight. I have been ordered to remove 3 board work from my training for a while as i need to work on my low end strentgh. So I figure I will go on a three week rotation of 2 board, 1 board, and full rom over the next 6 weeks. What Vincent Dizenzo says goes. This is also the start of my training cycle that I still need to write up for the meat in September. I should probably work on that. And also go to bed. Skwaats tomorrow.

the B team trained with the big boys due to numbers. it was pretty good up until the end when i kept getting beasted. i finally got it up but it involved my ass being up as far as i could get it. I was about and inch from lockout for like 8 seconds. it blew but i got it and its a big PR for me so im counting it.


04-17
extra workout
pallet overhead press 3x25
pallet curl 1x10
I figured that since i was sick i should do something before benching tomorrow. I would have done more curls but i wanted to watch tv and i didnt want to spend the time figuring out where how my grip should be. i would guesstimate the pallet is about 40lbs

Can You Blow Me Where The Pampers Is?

Working for 11.5 hours on 4-ish hours of sleep blows. I used up everything I had left in my tin at my first break, and I spilled most of it on my floor last night so there was dog fur and hair in it too, so I had no more lips after that. I bought two tins on my way home though. I'm gonna get another tomorrow because I will finally know the joys of being a grandmother, subjugated yet honored.

That or I found a place where I can finally try Red Man dip.

P.S.

P.S. I smell bad too.

Why

Why do I stay up until 2 a.m. watching cartoons when I have to get up in 5 hours for work? Only I have to get up in 4 hours because I didn't shower tonight?
