I love your signature:

 

Have you ever loved someone so much you didn't care what happened to yourself?

You Just had to be with them.

If they look at you, your heart stops.

If you feel their breath on your skin, you just ache.

Have you ever craved someone so much you didn't exist anymore?

 

Thats how i feel about me.

 

Anyway keep up the good work and good luck with the Riugby in a few weeks.

Nice to see you around here again. I know you're busy and that is great! Me too. Thanks again for thinking of me the other day. My roommates all think you're great! V.V. won't be the same without you but we know we'll see you again one of these days.....possibly over in your neck of the woods

 

I'm doing overhead presses a couple of times a week and thought of you because you were doing them out here last year. I love compound movements and I'm working hard to ad more of them in to my program all the time.

 

Keep on lifting heavy and have fun!

Hey Robert,

Thanks Robert, Still busy, on top of other things I have to look for a new place to live, one of my housemates has been getting more and more difficult to live with and I have been putting up with it, the final straw was when he came home and started ranting on about how vegan food smelt nausiating and ing. I fought back, so now I have to move in the next few weeks...

I'm pretty disappointed about missing VV, but I'm thinking about a visit over your way towards the end of this year or next year, depending on how things go.

Great to hear that you are doing overhead presses, they are such a great exercise. I can't actually do them at the moment due to some tendonitis in my elbow - Cleaning the weight to my chest seems to aggrevate it pretty badly...

Thought it was about time for an UPDATE

 

Height - 192cm - This hasn't Changed from Last time

Weight - 230 - I've lost weight in the last few weeks, been pretty stressed and not felt like eating

Other - Tendonitis in my elbow is slowly improving, I just can't do certain exercises. Ankle is improving also Physio and acupuncture seem to be working, so should be back on the Rugby field in 2 weeks

Improvements - Lost bodyfat from my stomach - gone in a hole on my belt, which is nice, Increased strength through the Upper back and shoulders.

Problem Areas - Legs have fallen away a little as I've not been able to train them properly for 7 weeks, Getting back into it now, should start squatting again soon, once I have improved balance (My ankle has forgotten how to balance etc - so I'm still getting that back - standing on wobble boards etc)

You giant vegan-beast of a man!

 

I just noticed your training log has had over 35,000 views!

 

Thank you

I think it's great that so many people have checked out my log, Even though I'm not gaining massive amounts of muscle or strength.

I guess the log is a good illustration of what it takes to stay at a certain level, with injuries and whatever else life throws your way.

Thursday - Was meant to have Rugby Training, but when we arrived at the ground it has been closed due to the rain.

I had spent the whole day siking myself up for training, as it is cold and wet at the moment, so it was a bit of a let down to not actually train.
