    Cliff note Non-journal Update Journal

    2023 Olympia Arm Wrestling 242+ RH

    The guy who won it all has only been pulling for 2 years and was unranked coming into the tournament. He’s now 14th in North America. #1 on that list is Devon Larratt. And dude is also a member here at TID, allegedly.

    Arm Wrestling 101

    1 - You can (and should) use your entire body to arm wrestle. As long as your elbow stays on the pad, you can lean and lunge and jerk and drop and lurch, etc. (safely and within reason). It’s a common misconception that you cannot use your body and thus body weight while pulling. You still...

    Carnivore Challenge

    Alright, I’ve done my research and despite [insert many different hesitancies here] I’m going to be following a strict carnivore diet for the next 26 days (I’m already 2 days in and that makes 4 weeks). So far, I’ve eaten copious amounts of eggs and steak and sausage and cheese and been sipping...

    Things I’ve learned since I started arm wrestling…

    1.) muscle soreness/pain is so much better than ligament/tendon/bone soreness and pain. 2.) training like a strongman, powerlifter, bodybuilder, etc, does NOT prepare you for arm wrestling 3.) wrist/hand strength is so much more than grabbing and squeezing 4.) size/looks mean very little 5.)...

    Old man strength is bullshit after what age?

    It’s not old man strength… it’s “this is as hard as I can do this particular thing without hurting myself” strength and it goes down with age after what number? I’m already experiencing it before 40 so I’ll say 34yr is the cutoff where, all else being equal, your body just won’t function at as...

    Added deca to my trt…

    Kickstarted this week, on Monday, at 200mg deca added to my 75-100mg test cyp. Continuing at 50mg/3x/week for a while, added to my test cyp 100% looking for joint relief. Anything else is a bonus. May be in my head but I swear my shoulders already feel better… Adding growth at 2iu/night as...

    Fasting with night being last vs first in the fast.

    I said that I’d give it a try and so I fasted yesterday from 1p until 7a this morning. It wasn’t fun. I’m no rookie to 18hr fasts, I do it all the time. But I was ravenous after my workout at around 6p and I was Hangry with an intentionally capital “H” the rest of the evening. I had trouble...

    Low dose growth or MK677?

    For those that have experience with both, I’m on the cusp of using one or the other again soon. I do have experience with both, but I’m looking for others’ advice here who have run gh for long term anti-aging and recovery, etc. Mk677 is definitely cheaper initially, but does 12.5mg at night...

    Morning warmup routine...

    At the risk of sounding way older than I am, I can no longer just roll out of bed and be ready for anything. I’m stiff and in pain, between my plantar fasciitis and my bone on bone knees, and I look like a fucking drunk cripple getting around for the first 5 minutes. So I’m thinking about...

    Who rides?

    First bike was a Suzuki 650SV as a teen, then been a cruiser guy ever since. I’ve owned a few but sold my last one about 3 years ago and didn’t know how bad I missed it until recently Just picked up this ‘02 Fatboy with a custom Army theme about a month ago. Took it on a Memorial Day ride with...

    Strength training for arm wrestling

    Give me some ideas of things you’ve done in your routines that smoked your forearms and hands/wrists. You can leave out heavy deadlifts and static holds for reasons I don’t want to even get into, but safe to say I was convinced over a very long discussion that deadlifts are terrible for arm...

    2021 Civil War

    Those of you actually calling for violent revolution as the answer for the insanity of the last year and absurdity of the current administration, must have not been to war and/or can’t grasp what a civil war would be like in 2021. It’s not trained soldiers on either side with defined ROE and...

    Arm-wrestling

    Who's into it, who's competed before, and what is it that makes someone great at it? I've been a casual arm-wrestler my whole life. I have pictures of me arm-wrestling my dad when I was 7ish, and more when I was a late teen (beating him finally), and then your various bar matches and drunken...

    My COVID Log

    Day 1 : woke up multiple times this morning, sweaty and cold. Finally got up to piss and could feel the ache in my body. Took my temp, completely normal. Nose stuffy though, food and drink tastes weird. Head felt light and loopy. Got checked, positive for COVID. Been at home all day and have...

    If this works for humans...holy sht

    https://www.pnas.org/content/early/2020/09/01/2014716117 Basically, a drug not only prevents muscle/bone wasting in space mice, but also builds muscle in space mice. “Turns off” myostatin. Worth a read.

    New TRT Regimen?

    @macgyver Recently posted a study of testosterone levels after a shot of test e. Levels peaked at roughly 24 hours. Where you pin and how much you pin, will skew this a bit, but still, that’s way faster than we’ve all been thinking for quite some time. So do we go ahead and start pinning 3-4...

    Veteran’s Day

    Much respect to my fellow veterans. If you’re going out to eat today, and you’re not a veteran, let the vets who go out for free food have a seat first. I’ve talked to many vets who don’t even go out today because the lines are so long and the wait-times are too much. I’m heavily involved in...

    Alternatives to gym

    I don’t know if it’s a mid-life crisis or what, but recently I’ve been wanting to trade my truck in for something electric (Tesla truck, Bollinger, Rivian), I stopped watching football all day Sunday, and I’m looking for alternatives to hitting the gym. I have a kayak I’m going to start taking...
