I take full responsibility for the lack of LC in the LC thread.

Here, since I got 0 feedback from my log I'll put these backnoods in here.

My shoulders suck and are imbalanced. Anyone else this bad? What do people do about it?

The first is this stretch I like to try and get my right arm into a better overhead position. The 2nd is me just pressing into the frame of the door

Doesn't look so bad to me. Just bulk.

I do need to bulk my shoulders up for sure

SS,

both can't be wrong, although if you were to add another destination I'd go for the fjords-y part in the (south compared to Lofoten) west. It would involve a plane trip and renting a car, the drive from Bergen to the fjords is pretty awesome if you pick the right roads to follow though.

sweet! yea we are planning right now and deciding how much time we have. So the fjords are more awesome in the south? Also, where were those guys on the boat who ended up being in the middle of some huge whale pack?? It was some video on youtube. That's where I wanna be!

Hugo, do you have chat off? I am trying to trash talk here

There is only one goal for April: make the most of every single lasertag match I play in, because I don't know how many times I'll get to play between April 27 and the competition starting July 20. I need to stop deferring and challenge myself in every single game.

Sensei, I am playing a game against yugo but he is playing super slow. Probably some dumb excuse about work. Let's play. I'll challenge u as soon as I can figure out how.
04-01-2015 , 04:15 PM
do it. i can probably play max 2 games. its almost 2am here. can't figure out the challenge button either
04-01-2015 , 04:22 PM
Checked for soorma1 but couldn't find u. Still haven't figured out how to challenge. This software is brutal.

Yeah, the fjords are peak fjord in the south west around Sognefjorden. You don't get this anywhere else:


I've been there a couple of times, one of those places where it's hard fathom how beautiful nature can be. And obv must be experienced first-hand. If you go there I really, really recommend renting a car. 95% of norwegians speak passable english so there's no issue making yourself understood.

Whale safaris are by far most common up north (e.g. in Lofoten). You prob need to book ahead for those.

04-01-2015 , 04:42 PM
SM,
My first ever online screen name was Pinin4theFjords. True story.

I'll surely be whizzing along the coast of Norway in VW Golf
Will let you know what I finally decide my itinerary is going to be!
04-01-2015 , 05:32 PM
Hugo, let me know if u are done playing for a while so I am not sitting staring at a screen for no reason.

I think I just went to "online chess" then went to "start new game", chose "member" instead of "random" and put in your screen name.

However, I also accidentally started a game against a random somehow so I'm playing that one now too it seems lol.

Lol, if you want to just play a game we can find a time and play it all right there. But turn-based is going to be like this, I advise you not to get too excited when playing against ppl who seem to be making a lot of moves and then get slower.

The good news for you is that b/c I had so many things going on at work I'm somewhat distracted.

HBBS: 325x10+
Incline Bench: 205x10+
Pullups: bwx22+
Deadlifts: ??? testing a set to failure today for the first time in several months, maybe 405x6+ by end of month?
Powerclean: 300x1
OHP: 170x10+ (already done 175x10/180x9 but was weighing ~224)
bw: <202, 207 this morning
1.) Nope. Way more obsessed.
2.) Barely made it, 325x10, 335x7
3.) Barely made it again, 205x10
4.) Destroyed, 26
5.) Destroyed, 405x11
6.) Nope. 285x1, 3 attempted powers that turned into fulls @ 295, clark at 300.
7.) 175x9 so yes
8.) 201 on the dot, but was as low as 197.4 so I could have done better toward the end.

April Goals:
Be Less Obsessed with the Dark Sith Lord of Pissening Ments aka the Iron Liar aka The Iron Hobbit, Aka Dark Lord Spaniard, Aka J Cream Slash bodybuilder powerlifter air conditioner aka Jason Giovanni aka Music Musician
HBBS: 350x6+ low reps on skwats this month
FS: 200x10x5 post HBBS
DL: 425x7+
Incline: 210x9+
OHP: 187.5x7+
Pullups: All time PR of 27 but this is probably too ambitious. If I manage 26 again this month I'll be happy.
PC: 295x1/260x3x4
BW: 201->195
DB curls: 45sx15+

Also improve DL form and keep chest up off the floor a bit better.
