I'd do it for 18-24 mos. then either move back here, Cali, or over to Connecticut and commute to the city. Would be fun before having a family

No worries man. Welcome

**NC_Tarheel** · 10-01-2012, 05:02 AM

Did you actually break your finger or what??? Or did you self diagnose on webmd, rub dirt on it and carry on (my go to option

)

Pretty sure it's broken. No doc yet. Been through 3 bottles of robotussin per dr rock

I approve of this method

I'm convinced that between nsaids, ice and equiblock/tiger balm you could cure 99% of anything wrong with you.

and nyquil. cause if it doesn't feel better, you can usually sleep it off

that being said, I think my hips are in need of some nsaids and equiblock today.

I can squat 3x per week, but if I do yard work for 8 hours my hips and low back feel like sh**.

**FrmrHoss** · 10-01-2012, 05:31 AM

It's definitely broken... feel 99% sure since I did the exact same thing to my finger a few years back playing flag football, did go to the doc, and it looked exactly like that.

Since I actually have seen you and Matt together at the same time, it totally ruined any attempt I had at humor with this post....

quit falling apart on us matt.

broken fingers and biceps injuries aren't cool

you've only got like 30 weeks until the meet

**mmorton** · 10-03-2012, 04:49 AM

Haha I know man. I'll be fine. Just need some more stretching daily. Poundstones helped with the pain

**thom2355** · 10-03-2012, 04:49 AM

Has sharp bicep pains....does poundstones....*raises glass*.

Get your sh*t together Morton. You're the bench anchor leg for Team BBS!!!

**mmorton** · 10-03-2012, 05:13 AM

I just needed to pump as much blood as possible into that bad boy!!

And don't you worry William Thad, I will bring it home for team bbs

On a side note Chris's top triple for squat was 280 today. He got 1. Love you bud

Maybe we could get him a spot to be our handler???

But he would still have to wear his singlet.

Chris...please defend yourself on these allogations

**FrmrHoss** · 10-03-2012, 05:29 AM

I have no defense other than utter shame and embarrassment. That and maybe I really underestimate how much squatting w/ a belt helps me?

I was gonna rag on you, but if you did it beltless I understand.
I've only squatted around 260 without a belt....I just always add it for my top couple of sets.

That being said 5X5 and eat more ****gggooooottttt

Squatting with a belt is different than without. Not to mention, the flexors have to be worn out by now....but they should have the rest of your life to recover.

Don't worry, I still love you guys even if I'm like the bastard child you won't claim until I (a) routinely squat 300 for reps and (b) weigh > 200 lbs

.

His programming specifically calls for weeks with and without the belt so... guess I'll just suck it up for now with the girly weights.

I must say, most out there would not be upset at all about a 280 x 3 (or 3.5 for that matter) on bench.

I say props if that is your bad day. Perhaps that is just because I'm a scrawny weakling, but meh.

I think youre safe with all of the CBL stuff going on.
I haven't caught any hell for trying to get jacked; read: scrawny again (except Inky, she wants me to be fat).

So I'm starting to believe that powerlifters dont' care what you weight, as long as you're slamming down cakes and pies.
