Oh my lol NOV haha good thing you explained it I was in the dark. Kept coming up with next official visit

As for the lady with the bred heifer - man that pisses me off big time, no though or concern for the well being of the animal. I have been involved with a dog forum for many years and one of my biggest pet peeves is people breeding their dogs young - you don't even know what you have at the end of your leash until they are at minimum 2! How do you know if they are breed worthy ends up being about $.

Great work on the benching and glad to hear moving is going relatively well.

Hey DM! The lady bought the calf as a weaned heifer. She was breed when she bought her and no one knew. The man should have known better than to keep that age heifer in with a bull. The sad thing is the other cow she brought over turned out to be a freemartin. A freemartin is a sterile heifer that comes from a bull heifer twin. So the man totally screwed her. Luckily her husband loaded the cows since neither of them we "breedable" and they are now back at her place and no longer my responsibility. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind helping people at all, but if you are gonna breed cows you need to have the facilities to do so. Also, please do not drop your liabilities at my door with out transferring ownership. Off the soap box now.
Hoping for more badazz benching Thurs.

It sure did.

So, no workout today. The cow working turned into a rodeo cause of the other lady's cows. I have 3 due in OCt. One of my beef cows didn't take, so we will rebreed her. I am not upset about it cause I would like all my beef cows to calve in the spring and all but one of my milkers to calve in the fall. So fun!!
Tomorrow is Oly day. I am also gonna start 5/3/1 on squats, deads, and OHP. Hubs has to go to Houston tomorrow so I can get my shiz together then. YIPPEE!!! Also should hopefully have computers up and running at the new place by the end of the week!!

HIL are you causing trouble again?


Hi JJ! You are busy, busy!!!

[gobbles23]

Oh, hope you have a wonderful workout today!!!!

[pharty]

Dear lordy what have I missed?
I fee like I've been saying that a lot. I feel awful.

Sooooooooo the new workouts seem awesome!!! I have no plans to change mine but I like following others
Poor cows. Seems pretty complicated. How often does the breeding "not take"?

[geek23ka]

i am not aware of poverty reps? what are these poverty reps?

are you feeling sorry for me???? lol


531 is awesome, jjean. i'm loving it.

[howimliving]

How often does the breeding "not take"?

the majority of the time the breeding "doesn't take" due to the cow either having a headache, feeling fat or too busy watching bridget jones' diary

i am not aware of poverty reps? what are these poverty reps?

meaning i don't have high reps but i give out what i have

[geek23ka]

HIL is trouble!
Man Swooshie, I keep telling myself that all I have to do is make it to 2 weeks from tomorrow. Then no more drving back and forth, all the shiz should be moved, hopefully more sleep and I can eat more. JJ is tired.

Oh, hope you have a wonderful workout today!!!!

Thanks Lori. it was okay. Challenging.

I felt the same way when trying to catch up on yours this am. I was about to reply on your weight and DL and the cow kicked the bucket and I had milk all over.
On the breeding, it takes more than not. In this case I am breeding her back for her 2nd calf. Heifers in this situation are nursing and still growing. So they are a little harder. I realize now she had more milk than I thought, her calf was just a huge hog. Most people don't keep cows that don't breed back. But I am not in this for the money and it solves a problem it would have taken e a couple years to solve in getting her to calf in the spring again.

531 is awesome, jjean. i'm loving it.

I do like 5/3/1. I like the way he thinks. I feel like I am not doing enough sets though. I guess that is what accessory exercises are for.

What ever. Some of us are still stuck in the 100's!

Happy Hump Day!!

These are two of my milkers. We were hanging out by the creek and a coyote had just walked by. Should have brought my shotgun.

Today was Oly day. It went okay. I thought it was going smoothly til I hit the 70# range. I will post the vid, but only watch it if you need some comic relief for today as it was one big fail.
Single Clean and Jerk
3x45
50
55
60
65
70 fail



Front squats week 1 5/3/1 90% max is 103.5
5x45
5x67
5x78
8x88 was hoping for 10

So since the 70 clean was a fail and I didn't get 10 on the AMRAP I decided to try out the sled.



It weighs 107#. I did 5 laps- push down pull back up. Next time I will pull down and push up. There is a slight slope to the alley way. These will check your ego in no time. But even though I thought I would die after, about 30 min later I felt like a BMF!!

[geek23ka]

you were tenacious trying to get that 70 clean. sometimes my brain hits a snag and i cant sort how to physically do something and its so frustrating, but if i wait a few days and try again, it happens like magic.

the sled looks like a torture rack. haha. i wish i had access to one of those. oh the doms it would give.

Normally 70 is really not a problem. So that was why I kept trying. But there are good Oly days and bad ones. The lower weight ones felt great so I am not going to get all bent out of shape about it.
I'll let you know how the legs feel tomorrow.

[thehobbes]

Damn girl, way to give that c&j your best efforts, you'll nail it next time.

Thanks Woody!! Oly lifting is great some days and not do great others, but I keep trying.
On the sled, well sled>treadmill
The cows are B and A1. Both are really great milkers and easy keepers. I have been lucky.
