Ripped for Raro 2016
-
<p>I don't get the itch but I don't dig a poorly manicured moustache. As long as my mo is nice and tidy I'm good, even if the rest of my beard is feral!</p>
-
Mine is kept reasonably short, as it gets longer it looks wispy and I look more like a homeless person.
-
<p>Here's a photo of me so far boys, bit of work to do on the bulk, definition and beard but slow progress is still progress right ?</p>

<p>It's just my massive legs making it look smaller bro, honest.</p> -
<p>Burpees and Pilates ( I would have preferred Pie and Lattes ) over the weekend and the former again this morning. I love and hate their ability to have you sucking in the big ones after only a couple of minutes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>'You're looking a bit trimmer" said Mum when I dropped the boys off this morning. I'm sure it was only the slimming navy blue hoody though.....</p> -

<p>Itches usually around that time but then subsides and you don't notice it.</p>

<p>How about when it is required for, um er, more intimate duties?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm at a week and 2 days now and the itch is getting to me. I'm tempted to ride it out, but I'm not sure if the beard comes with many benefits. I'm not too keen on shampooing my face.</p> -
<p>I think what so much of this comes down to is that some women love beards, but most don't. Mine is in the latter category which gives me the shits cos I don't want to actually bother shaving while on holiday.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Going out on a biting cold day after a shave this morning wasn't particularly pleasant.</p> -
<p>MN5 - it's sun smart to have a beard, natural sun screen from those harsh UVs.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Takes buggar all extra time to shampoo the beard.</p> -

<p>With my Celtic complexion I really must pay heed to that comment TR. Will tell the other half quicksmart.</p> -
<p>100kg on the dot this morning. Rather pleased with that as it's all come off the middle and not the chest or arms by the looks of things. At 105kg I wasn't hugely overweight for my height of 190cm ( this is a genuine measured at Police College height, not a Cane4life fantasy height, Paeks has met me, he will confirm this )</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Really happy with how things have gone and only missing the piss every now and again. Workouts consist of doing at least something every single day....hill walks and burpees for fitness, dips, chins, pull ups, explosive plyometrics etc are taking care of the rest at the moment although the bar in the garage is loaded with about 150kg so is demanding that I rip out a few deadlifts everytime I walk past so will see if the magic is still there.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm also making sure I get heaps of sleep and I think that is really helping me, I wake up and have a coffee but that's just out of habit rather than actually feeling like I need it.</p> -
<p>You know that if you drop to double digits you cease to exist aye!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Jokes aside good work on the weight loss bro - you are tracking really well and once your body gets used to no alcohol things speed up. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I would have placed you at 189.9cm but will defer to Police measurements!</p> -

<p>If I got Canes4Life to measure me I'd hit 195cm. Easy.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Todays workout consisted of helping the removal guys with couches, washing machines, tables etc up some fucken nasty paths at my place. I was paying by the hour so even though they said "naaa bro it's cool" I wanted to help to a ) save money cos I'm Scottish and b ) get a bit of HIIT training. Doing that shit all day would get ya in decent shape that's for sure.</p> -
<p>ha you can imagine C4L...it is 8 inches! </p>
-
<p>Fuck it sucks not being absolutely awesome at everything.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Tonight's Pies and Lattes class actually hurt my abs ( or where my abs should be ) and I'm sure that was on account of some of the awkward lifting of shit I had to do today. Something definitely twinged a bit but luckily the evil instructor took pity on her poor better half and we stretched out and changed exercises, no way I could bail out on the one I was doing especially not with 20 odd women and a few blokes, the pain occurred when I was rolled up but luckily stretched out right after and things eased.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm gonna get roped into doing this shit on the beach over in raro too, thank god I don't know anyone there.</p> -
<p>I'm sure your downward doggy style into saluting chocolate starfish to the sun are top notch bro!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Reckon that pies and lattes (love that btw) will do you no end of good long term. My mate has been doing a yoga class once a week, bit earlier to see improvements though. Then again he's a flexible bastard already - but it'll def help his core.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Meh, not being 100% all round awesome just gives you stuff to work on... and since you do that awesomely you <em>are </em>actually awesome all the time! too easy skux</p> -

<p>Have you been hanging with Ma'a, Victor and the Saveas again ?</p> -
<p>I listen to Darcy and he has Nathan Fien on pretty regularly. That's his piss take line for Darcy.</p>
-
<p>What music does the sound play?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I listen to RS (in car) and The Rock (at work) although some of the afternoon shit on the rock is tiresome.</p>
