Lift Hard and often, and enjoy life!
Quick into, been on forums for quite a while. Most recently in Hexfecta journal and before that it was the Trifecta. And a bunch of individual journals before that.
An amazing new life opportunity uprooted me from the mountains to the beach this year. Now that i'm finally settled on the other side of the country and getting adjusted, it is time to get back at it!
Been battling through a few injuries over the past few years so there is room for improvements. But injuries are part of the game of life. As a testicular cancer survivor- 13 years now - (knocks on wood), motivation comes easy for me.
New gyms, new motivation, new opportunity. I may not be in my natural element right now, but I'm excited where life has taken me so let's get to it.

First real delt session in about 4 months. Still recovering from injury. Will take my time ramping up strength, especially on delts. CGBP felt strong. Expecting some relatively quick increases here. CGBP as usual feels strongest mid workout. Few reps in tank on those setsLast edited by nwskier; 01-11-2016 at 09:41 PM.

Subbed. Glad to see you not having to deal with the stress of job hunting and moving anymore.
There will come a day when I tire of listening to 80's music. That day is not today.

I'm in Tim! You aren't in Jackson hole anymore? What injury did you sustain that affects your pull ups?

Master P! How you going mate? great to see you budOriginally Posted by wabeer1
not sure, but think it was a bicep tendon strain or 'golfer's elbow' (I don't golf - it's just what it's called). Taking it easy right now before going hard on pullups againOriginally Posted by nads786
wish that was the case. working too much and trying to live life. work travel ramping up as well so it's been limiting my lifting schedule and being active on the forums.Originally Posted by StressMonkey

You're benching has always been so consistent! Without the mountains how are you staying in cardiovascular shape?

It would have been cool to catch up thereOriginally Posted by nwskier
Great place though ... I just loved South beach, and Miami ws a great break away from the cold after the week of skiing in Vail. Very cool that there are twice a day flights from Miami to Eagle so that gives you some nice options for some weekend powder hunting
And you know I was in New York on the 30thOriginally Posted by nwskier
doesn't look like you've had any loss of strength despite being busy with the job ... sick volume o the flat bench and you nailed a killer droplet on the inclines!Originally Posted by nwskier
Any plans or goals from your training in Miami? Get the shreds on for the beach babes?
