i didn't realize how severe BPD is irl til i read that TR

Infected liver and enlarged spleen.

No clue whats going on yet, more in depth results in the morning.

feel better and best of luck chim

+1

Good luck, and hope that things get diagnosed and fixed quickly.

I must be broken. I squat 235 5 reps and I press 95 5 reps. I don't understand why my squat is so much more and my press is so much less.

just do SS, the gains will come.

SS's progression is much better for squat/deadlift than it is for bench/press. most people exhaust their upper body gains quicker than the lower body ones but don't switch up their programming when they should

i squat 215 and press 80

should i start going up by 5 when i feel it's hard or not until I actually fail?

are you by any chance a tyrannosaurus?

well I've done 225 for 3x5 reps. But I've also done 135 for 3x5 at press.


This is a common theme I notice here and at H&F. Everyone's squat numbers are proportionally much higher than their bench and press numbers than mine. Before break I did 195 at 3x5 on Bench.

My conclusion is that I am perfect and you guys are all weak in your upper body. This may or may not be correct.

In reality I think it's because I used to be a bench monkey, then even when I started doing lower body, I never did SS per se. So my programming has been slightly different than yours, so I think there are slight strength differences. It may also be genetic. I've always had broad shoulders so I may just naturally have a slightly stronger upper body compared to my lower body. Or I could just be a pussy in my lower body (esp given that it hasn't gotten nearly as much work over the years as the upper body).

also Chim - best of luck. I hope everything works out.

Everything will be fine.

I only assume they wouldn't have let me leave the ER if it was that serious.

Careful with that. I know a guy who left the ER after receiving a clean bill of health and was dead within 10 minutes after leaving. He was so busy listening to the ER staff that he did not see the Mack Truck coming and... well you can guess the rest of it.

true story.










well almost true.

^--I lolled

Man goes to Hospital. Leaves. Dies.

Joining in the wishes for chim's good health.

Otherwise, that ER will have some spleenin' to do.

Due to the overwhelming amount of BS I received via AIM and in the rocky horror game thread, the remainder of my TR will not be posted at this time.

wth is happening to pog?

Between Warteens quiz and this.. just awful.

seriously...this is ridiculous. Does it make all of you feel better and more secure in your own life to put someone else down?

I understand at times that WW gets heated when egos clash, but there is zero reason to put someone down in a "community thread", especially when there actually are people who enjoyed reading it.

Enty needs to repost that novel IMO.

I enjoyed the TR. what was wrong with it anyway?

I'm trying to work out why in the world hifi would get crap over the TR. Haven't come up with anything yet.

I want to know what happens at THAT old house

Damn new people, off the lawn.
