    Several workouts at PF, since my heel spurs are causing much pain. My bench (done at home is going strong) did 320x10 365x3 and 315x9 this weekend. I hope to start squatting with my new lifting shoes today. Probably light at first, then see how the heel handles it.

    Did some body weight squats in the new shoes the other day. Will try with weight today or tomorrow. I have gone to the gym this week 3 times, yay.

    Heart doc gave the ticker 2 thumbs up after stress test. :)

    Did a nice work-out the other day, starting with a good open run.

    Can't wait for the pool to open. :cool:

    A protein shake at night to wash down my zinc and magnesium and resting now in postcoital bliss. If that doesn't raise my resting testosterone levels then I don't know what will.

    I got my blue belt in hapkido on Saturday. I tested after an hour-long class. The test itself was a non-stop solid hour. After all that kicking, throwing, grappling, etc., my legs were so sore that night that I refrained from sitting or crouching because it hurt too much to get up again. It was good timing though: We had our spring party at the school that night. So all I did was chat, laugh, eat, and drink. #feltlikelegday #somanywings #pakorapalooza #deathbychocolate

    ^^^Congrats on the belt, dude. I know enough about MA to know that it's hard work. And you need knees for it, lol

    Benching went good last night after my cardio. Hopefully load the bar and squat some tonight.

    Chest and back yesterday, legs today. Sore and wiped out. Hard to focus at work when I have pushed myself. Did dips for chest yesterday, haven't done those for years. So I'm feeling my chest. Oh well, pushing myself is what is leading to progression.

    I've only worked out a couple of days this week. Interruptions via life. I'll be at the house alone tonight so probably do a full body routine and pass out. Hopefully the dog won't get in the way. Maybe cardio tomorrow before I have to go to my Dad's for his b-day celebration

    Last leg workout I squatted 245x 15 and 12, and then did a bunch of other stuff. This time 255x 15 and 12. Looking forward to doing 275x15 in a couple weeks. This workout my bunch of other stuff included a couple sets of hack squats which I haven't done in 22 years. Now my left knee feels fucked. Which reminds me why I haven't done hack squats in 22 years. Fuck.

    I benched press 265x4, which calculates out to a theoretical max of 295-300. Not too shabby.

    I'm detraining. Not by design, but I'll use it. I intend to start a 20 rep squat routine for a couple of months. It's a tough workout, hope I can take it.

    Well, I broke 190 lbs. for the first time ever. The gain most certainly isn't mostly muscle. I've been hovering around 185 lbs. for a while, but I haven't been able to do much to get back down to 175 lbs. since I've been on my meds. I plan on being off the meds by mid June. At that point I'll be training for the Mud Hero race in August. It will be much easier for me to shed deadweight by then.

    For reference, my doctor once told me to try not to go above 18o lbs.

    Squatted for reals on Wednesday. First weighted session in over a month. Ended session with a conservative, and fairly easy, set of 315 for 5. Then did some Romainian deads 5 sets of 10 with 135. Felt pretty good.

    I went to the doc today for a regular physical. Weighed in at 107, clothed but w/o shoes. Blood pressure 102/60, resting heart rate 64. Fasting (until 2pm) for a blood draw for blood analysis and peed in the cup as well.

    My heart arrhythmia didn't show up at all while I was there. I left a copy of my somewhat incomplete food diary for the doc's comments. I'll get my lab results in a couple of days and see how my low carb high fat diet effects my lipids.

    I also managed a successful deadlift of Wednesday's New York Times off of the floor and on to the table in the waiting room.:rolleyes: I have to say I'm glad I'm not a paperboy in NYC.

    In October, I used to drive to work. In November, I moved offices to one I cycle or walk to (one mile).

    I bought myself a fitbit to take a look at some data before the move, and after six months, my resting heart rate has fallen from almost eighty to just over sixty, my weight from about 135kg to just touching 108kg, and my BMI at the weekend fell to *technically* overweight rather than obese.

    So I now need to get below 100kg.
