As I wrote before I bought a barbell!

I will train upper body today.

COOL!

[flanders77]

Training is progressing very well!
Thanks to "MUSCLE MEMORY!!!" I already do deadlifts 10 reps with 90kg (198pd.) and biceps curls 10 reps with 45kg (99pd.). I will soon have my rack for squats ready and will add them to my weekly routine which also includes ring training (chest, core, upper back, iron cross, dips), handstand training with handstand push-ups and many yoga asanas.

Awesome! Great stuff man! That is fantastich! Have fun lifting!

I will be taking a vacation with my family from Monday for 2 weeks. I will do yoga and bodyweight exercises (maybe even at the beach as a VV2007-revival!).
I will enjoy the time with my kids and Anke and will be back soon and even more laid back then before!

good to read this thread again -

I miss flanders...he is one of my all time favorites and when people talk about vegan vacation 07 his name comes up as one of the favorites for many people.

He has also been one of the biggest supporters of Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness over the past 4 years that we have had this current forum.

Miss you David!

Hey Robert!

I miss you, too, and you are one of my all time favorites as well!
It is great to see how vbb&f grows all the time and how you tamih!
Magnus' prophecy from 2007 concerning my bb-ambitions became reality. I am much more into yoga than bb right now and I am in a yoga teacher training class right now.
I still do some exercises in my personal gym but the focus shifted.
Every once in a while I visit the forum but I do not invest as much time into writing posts than before.
I want to stay in contact to those I know personally or via online-conversations. Many forum members I have strong emotional ties to and I am really interested in knowing how their life is going. I just noticed that I am still on position 27 concerning overall posts

No need to miss me because we are all connected through our positive feeling towards eachother.

See you,

[robert]

Cool and I totally respect and appreciate that....my friend Ravi who you met at Vegan Vacation is doing the same thing....he is not on the forum anymore, is now a Yoga Teacher and loves it! He doesn't do bodybuilding anymore but he and I are very good friends and visit each other often as we're only 3 hours away in a car.

Great that you are pursuing a real passion for you. I will keep in touch for sure. I want to know how your family is doing and seeing updates of them growing and great stuff like that.

Yes, your name comes up a lot as exactly what you said...close emotional ties, people really connected with you very well and I have recently seen a few people from Vegan Vacation 07 and they remember it well.

Have fun doing what you love to do....that is ultimately, the most important thing.

All the best!

So you want to see how they grow? This pics cover the time from late summer last year until today.
Milo is already 1,5 years old and Marla is 4!

[robert]

That's what I'm talking about! Making it happen! Love seeing the pics! Been watching them grow for years now and it is excellent!

Fun to see friends and their families over the years. I really appreciate the pics and I know Jessifly and Tasha and many others will be pumped to see these too!

Great stuff, your family is great!

LLOL @

That's what I'm talking about!

since that's exactly what I was going to say - that's what it's about. Sweet. thanks for posting flanders

[flanders77]

Thanks buddies!
I feel blessed by having the opportunity to accompany these wonderful little human beings on their way.
Parents face the challenge of having to enable their kids to leave them and master life on their own. I enjoy every second in the presence of my family. They teach me to to enjoy being completely here and now.

Again thank you,

[robert]

So cool to see your posts and see your family....you're still like family to many of us out here and still have more Vegan Bodybuilding & FITNESS (as you say) clothing than almost anyone

All the best my friend!
