I picked it up today at work for a lark, and my pants cracked a little in the rear end region. Salty hog owns

Stockholm

The gym is called "Bear Hole - only men allowed"

Only men are allowed, for hog reasons

Is there a preponderance of Tom of Finland attire at this gym, by any chance?

There's a dude at my gym who wears a "Tom's Gang" shirt, it's awesome.

Everyone was so stunned when they saw baby boy's great big sharpie notes that a gang-tag was made out of it.

I will also do squats today and pump that butt

But I will not even attempt any PR's. I've injuried myself too many times doing PR squats and as an old man it's just not worth it. Maybe next time I do a steroid cycle I'll go for new PR's because with all that extra testosterone in your body you feel young and invulnerable again

You can do a PR without maxing out. Heavy triples or whatever

It's okay if you have any questions.


If you've only ever lifted a weight for 6 reps, and then you lift it for 7, that's also a PR.

I AM UNJUSTIFIABLY PROUD OF MY SPAGHETTI BOLOGNESE RECIPE

YES, IT IS AN INCREDIBLY SIMPLE DISH

NO, IT IS NOT NORMAL TO USE A PEPPERAMI INSTEAD OF MINCED MEAT

YES, THERE IS TOO MUCH SALT IN MY RECIPE

NO, I WON'T STOP SHARING IT

I just had a absolutely dogshit day deadlifting, did 185 for 1 with difficulty, got 1 rep of 177.5 but couldn't get anything else to budge off the floor.

My bench is also plateauing, luckily my squat continues to rocket up because bodies are weird.

I avoid back squats because they set off my neck/shoulder issues. Trying to get back (haha) into them, not impressed with the results so far.

Mike Tuchscherer took a couple years off back squat and deadlifts replacing them with front squat because of back problems now he's back to back squatting 515 for easy 10s.

Callus chat, what do y'all use for maintenance? I've got some decent buildup under my fingers and while I've never ripped/torn anything I know it's going to happen eventually. Pumice stone? Moisturizer? Pee?

The first year or so I had a lot of callus issues. Now my skin is pretty padded and smooth. I’m guessing my grip/form got better? I had pitted calluses for a long time.

Maybe start using coconut butter to charge your crystals?

I have to rub my infant son down with Aveeno baby eczema lotion and it turns out that really has done a number on my calluses even doing a lot of heavy gymnastic work so while YMMV I would personally recommend this product.

Just alternate hands when you lotion up before charging your jo crystals and you'll kill two birds with one atlas stone.
