@mn5 And @Rancid-Schnitzel sticks to chicks unlike your gay groove-greasing shit. Take that elsewhere. @taniwharugby is now confused and scared.

If you actually googled it fat boy you might manage a respectable amount of chins.

I don't need gay porn malware on my phone. It's cool.

Run this morning - planned for 5km but left calf went pop just after 3km at 18 minutes. Pretty sure it's just a severe cramp but couldn't continue. Walked home 2km.

As expected, weigh in shit house at 97.9kg

Mostly overeating. Reset and go again.

Pushups last night while watching Preacher on my tablet. 5 X 10 so that's coming along nicely.

Chinup session today on the public holiday. 5 X 2 chinups at 5 seconds each. Good burn.

Fucking left shoulder and pec still playing up. Makes me think I'm having chest pain of the wrong sort sometimes, but it never travels so I'm good.

With the chins and pull ups I found it really beneficial to actually film yourself doing it ( or get one of the kids to if you can bribe them ) to make sure you're getting the full ROM. I did and realised I could definitely improve my form although obviously that makes it harder and the reps might drop a bit.

Shit week. Raining most of it, so little running. I'm still bloated to fuck. Weighed in at 97.7 this morning.

Shit house.

NTA

Chinups in the rain:

Neutral grip: 5 sets of 2 = total 10

Supine grip: 2 sets of 2 + 2 sets of 3 = total 10

Pushups (not in the rain): 5 sets of 10 = total 50

Woke up just after 6 (which was a struggle given DST started on the weekend) and the rain had abated, so did 5km in 29:17

Managed to find that rhythm early and just stuck with it. Split the first couple of km at 5:45ish and relaxed from there

You're going good pal. Having met you last year when you were a bit 'softer' I have to confess you're looking a picture of health on your fb pictures. Mind you the copious craft beers we consumed certainly didn't help.

@mn5 the issues happened LONG before I touched down in Aotearoa. You could say I prepped well.

Last night I did some pull ups (pronated grip/overhand) at shoulder width grip and while it was tough, I got through 4 sets of 2 and a set of 3.

Realised in the first two sets I was jumping into the first lift, so I slowed it down which was even tougher

They're tough. I can do 14 genuine dead hang pull ups in a row at about 98kg. Was pushing 20 til I got real and checked my form. Still wanna get to 20 but it'll be tough going. I'm not a 60kg 20 something.....

@mn5 I've always sucked at pull ups, even when I was gym bunny, I couldnt do 10.

Pilates tonight. Kind of nice to be out as Mrs TA has the shits with me over my appalling honesty.
