[thehobbes]

Hai guise! Just got home, brb gone for 15 hours at work! Gonna burn over 4kcals again damnit. Did not eat a single calorie all day due to no time, srs, having secret rage all day at people who get like 10min to eat at work or whatever the fuk that is all about. Trying hard to make it up, got dat dere large bbq salami pizza, pasta bowl with chicken, and cheesy bread garlic things. These cheeky Dominos bros rustled my hams big time, they see my shirt "oh are you guys busy?" No bro I only have 15 hours of sweat, dirt, and rage on me, not busy at all.

I'm hungry.

Yes eating right now, yes halfway through large bbq pizza, still starving, gonna rampage the fark out of this meal, I am a Spartan Ham warrior with spears dipped in rage.

Cot dayum gurl!!!

Nice work.

Not sure what I'm doing tomorrow, if by the grace of the ham gods things are normal at work I may just go out to LTF for a water slide afternoon, would be sweeeet. Until then, brb eating. Also getting an urge to waddle out into the woods behind my house in a loin cloth and Under Armour sports bra and slay all dem white fluffy bunnies and cook them on a spear over my grill as I dance around it in victory.

Not sure the reward of rabbit meat would be sufficient to overcome the amount of calories that would be burned in said hunting expedition. Just sayin'. Although the victory dance may tip the scales. haha.

What do you do? Whatever it is, it sounds hard...and frustrating.

^^^hehe. This reminds of of the killer rabbit scene in Monty Python's Holy Grail LOL

[Scrabbz]

But rabbit meat is so delicious. :P.

[gobbles23]

Hahaha! Poor Hammie! Jelly of that pizza...yummers!!!!

Rabbit....bleck! I'd rather hunt some wild chickens!

[LHarwood]

Ughh at how long your day was.

Booooooom at the mahoooosive meal.

I'm gonna have a treat meal this weekend as I've not had one in months...I never had that pizza I was gonna have a while back.i might have fish n chips..or a beastt burger and chips...decisions. ..decisions.


Or maybe a curry

[rickiecoombs]

Ughh at how long your day was.

Booooooom at the mahoooosive meal.

"Mahoooosive" - I like this word. Unfortunately, I must spread the love before I can rep you again.

HAI HAM!

I am sorry your day was redonkulous... although, when I read that list of food, my mouth started to water furiously. I think envy is one of the seven deadly sins? Is that Catholicism? I'm not catholic. Does that mean I'm allowed to envy? Regardless. Was jelly of the foodz.

Simon is currently attacking something invisible. I am so confused. I share this only because I know you have all teh kittehs, so you probably can nod your head and be all, "Why, yes, they do attack invisible things from time-to-time." And, of course, you're wearing a monocle when you say this.

Holy crap. I am the "r" word today, and it's not even 11am. Sorry about that.

I totally got off track, and cannot remember what I was going to say. I'm going to leave now, before I scare you away and you decide to never speak to me again.



Happy Friday!

[thehobbes]

Hamm-
What do you do?

I own a small trucking company and we're contracted by a major shipping company to pick up and deliver shipments. I own a bunch of trucks and have under 10 employees (who amazingly even as grown ass adults often times fail to come in to work.) I still drive trucks almost daily for a few hours in the morning and then go home and do paperwork/management tasks, but when one of my guys isn't here it turns into a day like yesterday where I'm there for 15hrs and on the road most of that time to get everything covered. I have heard every excuse in existence for why "I can't come in" just short of "a tyrannosaurus rex ate my car this morning."

Whatever it is, it sounds hard...and frustrating.

Understatement of the century. You would probably not even believe half the crazy stories I have about that lol. The norm is carrying a mini fridge on your shoulder running up to someone's house while being chased by the customer's dog and children who all want to bite you lulz.

But rabbit meat is so delicious. :P.

Rabbit Jerky?

Hahaha! Poor Hammie! Jelly of that pizza...yummers!!!! : D

Rabbit....bleck! I'd rather hunt some wild chickens!

We have wild turkeys running amuck out here, srs, mostly in the residential neighborhoods around a lot of wooded areas, those suckers get BIG.

Ughh at how long your day was.

Ughh is right, at least it wasn't 95 degrees this time.

Booooooom at the mahoooosive meal.

Mmmmm! Do you guys have a whole fascination with Chinese take-out like we do in this country? Those restaurants are everywhere here. Obviously ours is Americanized as fark, wondered if it was similar with you guys.

Seven deadly sins?! Oh lawd I don't remember all of them but I think I'd probably score at least a 6 out of 7 on that list lol. Is "fighting with people at Costco" or "tripping little kids who walk on your lawn" on there? lol

Oh of course, completely normal! That's called the Cat Crazies my friend, they are actually chasing ghosts of chickens, cows, and hams that you have eaten in feast.

What freaks me out though is when my kitteh is napping beside me while I'm on my laptop, all peaceful and everything. Then jumps up in a startle and stares at "nothing" by the fireplace as if there's someone over there but it is 2am and I'm the only one home.

I totally got off track, and cannot remember what I was going to say. I'm going to leave now, before I scare you away and you decide to never speak to me again.



Happy Friday!

Lol, there is nothing that could ever scare me away! (Except maybe a gigantic scary centipede! Wouldpeepants/10) Happy Friday!


Decent day, work was smooth, decided to just come home after (weather sucks, rain, thunder, dark out) and snack and take a nap. Yes I prefer to live like a happy kindergartener. Plan is lifting tomorrow at LTF.

[LHarwood]

yeah we have loooads. We have a few china towns as well.

I do like chinese but it ain't my fave tho.

[jjeane]

Happy Friday Hammie! I may have missed it but did you make it to the waterslide?
LOL at MMA and the rabbit hunt being worth while. I will say skinning a rabbit is a whole lot easier than a turkey!

[dreahere]

I think those both get subsumed under "wrath."

Happy Saturday, Hammie!

I did not! It rained every day that I would've had time to go. Going today though!

Ok then I have committed a lot of wrath.

Farking bad ass workout! Feltgoodham.jpg Elbow is doing tons better, still wearing an Ace strap for a couple things to be safe, it's also really not rustled anymore when I'm at work for like 15hrs straight sprinting with mini fridges on my shoulder. People love dem mini fridges.

Funny water slide story. Just when I climbed to the top they were like oh hold on we had a water slide accident. They had to get that big net out cause somebody lost something in the pool, first I thought a kid crapped again but I think it was jewelry or a toe, I dunno. So I had to wait for the lifeguards to retrieve this thing and they're taking their sweet time staring at it and whatnot. I'm the only person on the platform next to this 20yr old lifeguard chick and since I just drank my protein shake 5 minutes ago the protein farts are kicking in pretty bad lol. So I'm trying to point myself away from her all nonchalantly and fart off the platform, making weird faces too, she's watching the people at the bottom then kinda looking at me like wtf are you doing? Lol I think she knew. I was thinking "oh god, hurry up!" I almost went back down the stairs but was trying hard to play it off like nothing was happening there. They finally got the pool situated below and I went, propelled down the water slide with extreme force from my powerful protein farts.

Lulz at BittyBro, yeah I use Versa Grips for all my db rows. I find that if I don't I use my arm too much to pull instead of my back. Haters can refer to my 290lb double overhand chalk only DL.

[-=FLEX=-]

Solid work Hammy.

Ahhh. Makes sense why you are always talking about carrying stuff. Yeah. Some ppl are just lazy. I don't get it. The only time I've ever called in last minute at my job is when I hurt my back and literally couldn't get off the chiropractor's table.

Lol I realized that too and ended up eating a whole bag of Turkey Jerky.

You get props for recommending that turkey jerky thread. Love it!! In fact, I'm thinking of incorporating it into recipes. It's that delish.

First I lol'ed at "a kid crapped again?"

Then I lol'ed at the image of you being propelled down a slide by your own flatulence.

Hammie-I always learn a lot in your journal and it makes me LMBO.

[thehobbes]

Solid work Hammy.

LMAO, thanks FLEX, that's one of the funnier gifs I've seen, those people need to eat some chicken wings or something though! They're soooo skinny! Do they even pizza?

You get props for recommending that turkey jerky thread. Love it!! In fact, I'm thinking of incorporating it into recipes. It's that delish.

Oh I love that stuff! Almost went through an entire box I bought already lol. Good thing I have all these Amazon points, dat shiz is expensive!

Fuuuuark you are strong.

When will it be my turn for unassisted pullups?

Not bad for pulling 170lbs of ham up there eh? (Would be 167 but I don't do pullups/chin-ups nekkid, my fancy pancy gym frowns on that.)

Okay. Newb question if you don't mind answering. If you do, no worries, I'll stop pestering you.

also: Congrats on the PR.

Haha, ask me whatever you want. Hammer Strength Rows - that is the plate loaded row mechanism, each side is independent of the other, so I'm doing 2.5 Plates Per Side with how I write that up. Face pulls are this:



Great for shoulder mobility/upper back strength.

First I lol'ed at "a kid crapped again?"

Then I lol'ed at the image of you being propelled down a slide by your own flatulence.

Hammie-I always learn a lot in your journal and it makes me LMBO.

Dem protein farts lol.

Farrrrk that's cool! HAM STRENGTH!

LOL I believe I'm developing a complex around here.

Excellent work Hammie!! You have some so far on the chin pulls as of late!! TOTALLY mirin'
Row PR as well.
LOL about the lifeguard chick! I hope you yelled I AM HAM!! as you slide down the slide!

Thanks JJ, I am no small ham to hoist up on those bw chins/pulls heehee, I iz proud. I always yell I AM HAM, the lifeguards are used to it by now.

Those green shorts are pretty cool in your bench video and yes I am a wizard.

Those are my wild parrot shorts of peace UA, someone must be sub'd to Ham Nation.

BENCH PRESS DAY

SUPPS:
PRE: Novem 1 pack
INTRA: Con-Cret 2 scoops
POST: ON Protein 2 scoops

LOCATION: Home gym
BODY WEIGHT: 167

WARMUP:
-Arm circles
-Cuban Press

CHEST:
DB Bench Press:
35s x 15
45s x 15

BB Bench Press:
*still deloading on this, did vids from diff angles to see if anything is uneven - it is!
45x12
75x10
105x10
135x8
145x8 (vid from front)
145x8 (vid from side)
145x7
125x10


145x8 set 1, ok I found my problem, rt arm is coming down unevenly, not as tucked, not as deep, must fix asap


Yes I realize my camera is crooked as fark, could not figure out why and tried for like 5min to fix that. But anyways my arms are not coming down exactly evenly. I'll continue to vid from the front on all sets and try to tuck that other arm better.

145x8 set 2, looks even as fark from this angle, weird


RC WORK:
Standing Y/T/Ls with hold:
5s for 15, 15, 15
7.5s for 15, 15, 15
10s for 11, 10, 12 brutal

Int. Band Rotations w/ hold (Red): 1x12

Ext. Band Rotations w/ hold (Red): 1x15


Alright, so something's up with my bench as far as my arms being uneven. First I'm gonna use a level on the floor to see if it's slanted at all and maybe the rack needs to be turned around. Then will have to video all sets from the front and it looks like I need to tuck that right arm more (which it looks fine from the side) or perhaps bring it a tad lower. I'll get a better video set up of it and see where exactly the problem is starting. This does explain why each side of my chest gets sore in a different spot though. Now I know and can fix it. (See people in LHOTP times didn't have video cameras so they'd just have to deal with benching unevenly for years and years. )

You mirin' my wild parrot shorts of peace?

Yeah.
