not eating crap is so goddamn hard! thats why ive given in and gone on a permanent bulk hahaha i did some good lifts in my early 20's before i had any problems, doubt ill ever match them again........gotta plod on though! ceilings solid, as long as i dont drop anything from too high i dont reckon ill go through it, my ma wouldnt be impressed if i did ive been watching loads of benedikt magnusson videos have you seen how strong this guy is? he does some mental deadlifts with no straps etc.....worth a look

thanks Rob, now i have found exercises i can do that dont aggravate any injuries i have i just stick to them but change the intensity techniques that we always discuss and so on. i find its possible to keep gaining with the same exercise as long as you change the intensity techniques, weight, rep schemes, rest between sets and stuff. some times ill move my feet on the leg press etc, or change my grip slightly doing bench press but nothing major. just managed 100kg bench tonight for 10 reps too.......i think i could have got maybe one or two moren if i had a spotter but im in my bedroom and dont want to get stuck as no one will hear my screams with death metal blairing haha hope all is good with you pal

some lifts i was happy with this week... 60kg olympic barbell curls 10 strict reps. was happy with this as the 20 discs look awesome. 100kg leg extensions 19 reps 260kg calf press on leg press machine 20 reps. 100.7kg bodyweight now

hey Ross, hows things boss? glad to see you enjoying HIT

looking strong as f**k mate!

hey buddy, try ignoring the scales for a few weeks and just use the mirror, the scales can literally drive you mental if your not careful, and as you said the body fluctuates alot depending on what youve eaten, what time of the day you weigh, how much exercise etc.....mirror is far more accurate in my opinion

holy shit Rob, what a cat, animals do some truly amazing things some times!

weighing 99.4kg was hoping for 100 by september maybe 105 by then?? will post some new pics soon.

alrite Ross, ive always had a problem with zoos, even before i was a vegan.......i think its horrible and a shame to bring animals in from the wild into small enclosures just for the public to come and gawp at. I know some of the places they are kept are alot bigger than they used to be but they still arent wild, penguins brought from the arctic and put in a little pen in britain with a swimming tank etc.......its totally wrong. Some of the animals have huge territories and habitats which cannot be replicated no matter what in a zoo........it can be argued that we are keeping some of the endangered species safe by putting them in a zoo, but i dont really see that as fair either. Why should we condemn an animal to be locked up just because it is the last, im sure the creature wouldnt agree that its a good idea. People say, "yeh but youve got a dog and thats and animal being kept out of the natural world" but its different as i havent gone out into the wild to catch my dog just to keep it........its a difficult one, but thats just my opinion on the subject bro, i couldnt work in one, but we all have different thoughts on things and whos to say im right your wrong or vice versa........id be interested to hear others thoughts also

ah right i see..........sounds like heaven haha , im going to make one this weekend, if you dont hear from me for a while its because i cant walk to the computer

just thinking, in your opinion Rob would there be any benefit to doing it in different positions too? such as just before full lockout?

thats the coolest thing ive ever seen! gotta make me one of those, finally a way i may be able to train legs at home

bit of motivation anyone?? fast forward to 3.30mins

nice how much different stuff you do in your training Andi, cross fit looks like fun i suppose you get the best of both worlds from it......fitness and strength. you still eating to gain weight?

hey Bob, welcome to the forum and good luck with your goals. everyone here is more than happy to help with anything mike

looks like your making some good gains mate, especially if your keeping the same fat %........good job

hey buddy, good to see someone giving HIT a go! awesome way to train when done right.......a good gauge of if you doing it right is if you feel like or want to do another set then the first one wasnt intense enough i find when i get it just right i feel so sick, my muscles are almost numb feeling and my brain wont function properly for a few minutes......sounds really bad but it works. alot the of HIT way of training is in the mind, it can be quite difficult to actually push yourself that far if your not used to it but when you do learn how its done right you realise how much harder you can push yourself than you have before. hopefully the HIT man Rob will chime in now he has a much better way of putting things than me good luck if you continue with it oh yeah, i watched someone interviewing dorian yates on youtube, they were saying that you need to do more than one set, his responsewas........"come and train with me, and i can gaurantee you will not want to do another set"

Yes sir!!!! Looking forward to sharing my journey jeez thats impressive, very impressive! good luck with the journey i will definitely follow along

alright mate, looks like this will be an interesting journal to follow did i read that right.......a 227 KILO bench???

vegan easter eggs! nice! were they good? fingers crossed for the job pal

never seem to get a chance to come on here these days, still training and eating hard though, weighing 97.7kg at the moment managed to keep the gut in check this bulk too, no six pack but its flat ish

hmmmm i might eat some of my birds eggs then, feels a bit of a waste not eating really.........i really miss wild fish but i think ill try and not eat it as i have lectured everyone i know so much about it i will never live it down lol your father in laws sounds like my kinda place, is it a dairy farm? my training is a bit all over the place at the minute as iam so busy, iam still training hard but its pretty disorganised to be honest lol good to see the diet and training is going well for you mate, have you thought more about doing some videos? mike

hey Rob, training looks good pal, do you train outside when your at home? hope all is well over there.......sounds like the weather is pretty good in ireland (i listen to radio nova from dublin everyday). doyou think the fish and eggs are making a difference? ive contemplated eating eggs, as i keep hens and ducks. mike

hey Nicole, welcome to the community! good luck with your goals mike

RIP jim hellwig the ultimate warrior, one of the people i aspired to look like when i was a kid.
