I used a belt this morning to do my deadlift routine (5x5's). The Internets sez I shouldn't, only for 1RM lifts, but it felt real good. Should I not use a belt for regular sets? I feel like 5x5's are heavy enough that a belt is justified. 🤷‍♂️
 
At the weight room this morning, this hot chick is working with a pro trainer. Trainer goes:

-Good good. Just make sure you engage the triceps.

The chick whispers something.

-The back of your arm.

😅
 
Felt good today. Didn't need to stop. Nice weather is such a big factor in my runs.

I got winter cycling gear so I can hopefully NOT have to run this winter. 🤪 So far so good. Waiting on a set of knobby tires for my beater road bike.

184.8lbs this morning. Last time I was this light was in 2004. I was betting Habs games like a degenerate at SIA.

I’m not doing that but I do regularly take a cold shower. As cold as I can get it. I start off luke warm and then slowly knock it down to as cold as I can get it. Takes you breath away.

Tiger Woods does ice baths after every round of golf.
 
Can’t drink a glass of egg nog 3 times a week and just do weight training boys

That's the spirit, Tronner! :cheers:

I cycled in -4C/25F weather last week. Feltgoodman.

Got some Fizik winter overshoes yesterday. I should be able to ride most if not all winter with these in Toronto.

I did a so-called Ronnestad workout last night on the bike trainer. It's named after a scientist who figured out that short 30/15 intervals (30 seconds hard, 15 seconds easy) are better at improving performance than longer steady-state intervals (say block of 10 minutes around your threshold power).

I was scared of it when I started but I quickly realized that I would have no trouble completing it.

YEAH BITCHES.
 
Longest run yet. Felt great. Had a pitcher of margaritas at company Christmas party last night which probably wasn't smart. Down to 198 as of yesterday. Still have a beer belly but fok it.
