Clearly I need to learn more about California... I had no idea we had a volcano! Also I think it's easier for me to remember SoCal since there was such a Spanish influence for places, whereas it's.... pretty wonder bread in northern Cali. I'd like to make the trip out with my gf. But we'll either fly up or rent a car. Long trips in either of our cars sucks.


BTW, apart from boo, does anyone keep in touch with caroline? Anyone know if she's alright. I haven't seen her post in a few days. Or boo kidnapped her and took her to Vermont for the maple syrup and complimentary hotel apples.

There are a few volcanoes in California. Mount Shasta is another. You should definitely rent a 4WD SUV and make the trip up.

I'm guessing Sweet Caroline is preoccupied with her new lady love.

So the free lunch worked! Okay wait, I've spent most of my adult life thinking Shasta was in Washington state. Sigh. *stops bugging Erik and goes off to read Wiki pages on California topography*

Shasta is close to the Oregon border.

You know what would be cool? Drive north and visit the national parks along the way and then fly back to SoCal. There's Sequoia and Kings, Yosemite, Lassen, and Redwoods. You can also visit SF, Point Reyes, and Lake Tahoe.

I've been to a few of those places, actually. And yeah, I forgot you could drop off the car at a business location without penalty. Just gotta find time for it.

You gotta *make* the time. All work and no play, will kill you with regret.

Well SH8T! Ended up with a bunch of rice caked on the bottom




I suck at this.

[Nate118]

Haven't got to watch/listen yet, but this should be bonar material if you lift.

Thank you for this.

I'm 30 mins in, but do you have any cliffs for reference?

[muruku]

I'm right here! Is boo taking me to Vermont? boo? I love apples and maple syrup, let's go!

Haha I leave for my vacation next week actually

I've been a little bit preoccupied these last few days with work and also because my grandmother is in the hospital. The family has been in a bit of a panic as it took a lot of convincing to get her admitted. We're still trying to diagnose the issue (originally we thought that she had had a stroke or a series of minor strokes) and it's a little bit up in the air.

Thanks for checking in How are you guys doing?

Wunderbar!

I kinda feel bad for my wife because after the Ohio trip I can take the weight off, she however can not.

She will soon enough, like a massive dump; only it's a kid.

You will miss sleep soon enough.

Always nice when you take a massive dump and suddenly you're 5 pounds lighter.

I'm catching up on sleep right now, wish I could bank some of it.

She wants to drop weight for a friend's wedding that she's a bridesmaid in. I won't let her try until 6 weeks after. And even then she's going to be burning through calories breastfeeding.

I remember when my sister had her first kid, dropped almost all the weight without changing diet, just all the being active with a baby burned the calories.

The problem is she has an appetite for a girl and she's not as accepting of vegetables as I am. On top of that she has 60 hour work weeks where they order pizza at tournaments. Dropping weight is difficult for her.

When's your due date, Jd?

And I'm of the belief that if wifey ends up holding onto some weight after having the baby it's not a big deal. I think she'll really be surprised how active one is with a newborn. Pushing a stroller, preparing meals, etc., it's a lot of schlepping!

She's due Nov 15th. I'm not worried about her holding on to some baby weight, her blood work is spectacular mostly due to the muscle she built in high school. We're both rather big people and will remain that way, just don't need to be AS big as we had gotten.

And I do the cooking, that's awfully sexist of you to assume she cooks.

I didn't say she would be doing the cooking Just call me "Miss Misogynist"!

[ErikTheElectric]

Coffee Coffee.


I'm thinking that fridays should be donut days..

[VmissileX]

Definetly moving to California one day/10

I just expected so much more from you.

But srs, thanks for asking and I hope things are going well with you.

Tell her to hold off until Nov. 20, that way me and your son can have the same B-Day.

Never realized how many people I know are in November. My friend here at work is the 15th, my wife's niece is the 17th, and now you.

What sucks is this. Wife's birthday is September 25th, Anniversary is October 3rd, Now the kid's birthday in November, Christmas in December.

I will spend from my birthday through the Holidays working overtime to pay for all of this.

TFW, I get paid salary... No overtime.

That has to suck; this month i get my next raise, and it will be ~7.5%. I'll see about $250-300 take home on each check; and one OT shift will be up to about $300 take home.

The irony being all that I pay in taxes, goes to paying for my own wage and the prison itself too.

[jampottt]

Still have 2 left from the 6 pack of them I got for $20 on clearance. Might need to bust one out this weekend...

They were GOAT. Didn't even feel full/regretful after finishing them either. Romanian Deadlifts came up a dream this morning.

Coffee Coffee.

Almost had my first donut today, free donuts at work, by the time I got there they were all gone.

..

Having the worst time with my old bank at the moment. They provided me with false information, which has left my account in horrific shape. They've accepted liability but won't compensate it to the full tune. Madness.

Same with my wife, she works for the state.

Whats up guys!

I really need to get back in here on a regular basis, lol.

[themonkay]

Thank you for this.

I'm 30 mins in, but do you have any cliffs for reference?

Shoot. Lol, I'm not really sure if I can do it justice by cliffing it, but some random interesting points made:
- the max recoverable volume is used in the context of someone's goals, not necessarily someone's absolute physiological max recoverable volume (MRV)
- if you're getting stronger consistently week by week, you're not pushing towards your MRV
- if you're complaining about a deload, there's a good chance you don't need it, nor will you benefit from it (hi 531 noobs)
- volume is best measured when staying at the same intensity area. For example, it doesn't really make sense to compare volume of 50%x5x10 to 85%x3x5
- layne is fukin nuts (in a good way)
