    One from tonight.....My 'old school' gym moment.

    Never been a big 'filter' guy. But I snapped this pic and with a B&W filter, it reminded me of the old school pics from back in the day. I am a fan of the 70's and 80's bodybuilding. I spent much of my youth dreaming to try to look like that one day. The craziest thing now is I look at...

    First gym selfie in a while

    Took my first gym selfie in a loooong time tonight. Been bringing down my weight. (trying some unconventional dieting). Essentially I still do IF, but 2-3 days a week I do a harder fast. I only eat 1 meal. No cal counting, and the fat is coming off easy with almost no effort. I...

    Any car guys in here?

    In the spirit of @SAD who rides thread, figured I would start a thread for any car nuts in the group. For me, I have really gotten into car stuff as my son has gotten older. He is the motivation behind it, and we now do car events whenever we are not busy with soccer. We are lucky that we...

    Been almost 3 years with an IF (intermittent fasting) lifestyle

    I have posted about this before. But I just had another annual physical and I am reminded of the wonders of I.F. For those that dont know, I used to be the guy eating 5-6 meals a day. I weighed and tracked macros fanatically for years. I would eat structured surpluses for 4-5 months and then...

    Lunch.... Cant think of a better way to get 60g of protein!

    Craving some wings. Been a few months since I had any good ones. Went to store and bought a big pack of fresh wings and butchered them. My sauce is simple. 1tbs butter, red hot, and pure capsaicin extract (use last part at your own risk). I make them hot enough that you cant stop eating...

    My gym screwing around with membership dues

    When COVID hit, my gym suspended its memberships and paused billing. Its a lifetime fitness. I went there because it was close to where I brought my daughter to dance, but for the past year before covid, she had not been going there and I just went out of habit. I have a full gym at home...

    First time benching 315 in 2 years

    Cant let @FLEXjs have all the recuperating OG lifting cred around here :D Since my back injury 2 years ago I have not gone heavy benching as I have instability which when I tried to push heavier weight would result in breaking form and hurting myself and sometimes lower back spasms. I have...

    Funny Corona communications

    Everyone has nothing to do so my family (probably like a lot of others) has been hitting up the group texts a lot lately. My mom reached out this morning to update on what she was up to. I could not resist the response! Feel free to share any funny exchanges.

Come home from gym tonight to find my daughter, who just got her license on Sat, drove to Dunkin Donuts and brought everyone some donuts, and my wife stocked the freezer. 8 new tubs of icecream/sherbert.... :)...
