There will be 3 entrances: one must be benched open, one squatted open, and third deadlifted open.

Too many bros getting their homes broken into. Am I the only one who had it happen while being at home?

THIS WOULD BE SO SICK. Can Soulman be our personal chef?

WTF? Cliffs?

DW,

Are you talking about 3 alternate entrances, or would you have to complete all three exercises to "unlock" the entrance?

I don't even remember the last time I locked my doors and I've never been broken into.

imo 3 alternatives, so injuredbros can still get home

Cliffs required

Bonus points if satanists were involved

DW,

Oh that's a good point. A little empathy would be good. So long as they take the punishment once they're back on their feet.

Sounds like a God of War mini-game this way; I like it.

What if we had a difficulty level set up for the entrance? Like so that you could require an extra exercise or defeat a squad of ninjas to get inside?

I do indeed volunteer to be the chef and sommelier. It will be glorious.

Break-in happened about two years ago, happened around 4 am on a Monday morning. I had forgotten to lock the door to the porch. Woke up by loud sounds in the living room on the floor above me, took a while to process what was happening before realizing someone was in my house. Got out of bed, first thing I saw was someone descending the stairs about 2-3 yards away from me. Shut the door close, yelled out for the guy to GTFO, called 911. Dude almost kicked the door in before running away. Police came 30 secs later, never caught the guy.

I sleep with a big mag light by my bed now. I'm sure I would have used a gun/any other weapon if I had had it at the time. Given that I was bare nekkid without any weapons and he was coming at me from above, closing the door and calling the police seemed like the prudent move. And yes, I thought about all of that in the 0.5 secs I had to make a decision.

First thing I did after it was over? Post about it in the LC thread ldo.

LOL a true H&Fer sharing the news in the LC thread asap.

You should keep a bar by your bedside with your max DL weight stacked on it. That way if this ever happens again, you can point to it, show off your max 1-rep, and watch the burglar flee in terror.

Does fake Busto have to show off his noobness in every LC thread post?

Yeah, SM's max DL wouldn't scare anyone; if anything, it would embolden the burglar to troll him while robbing his house.

That's cold. But I LOLd anyway.

I fully acknowledge that the same thing is true about my max DL, btw.

So I just got my first week training plan from Mike t. It calls for band resisted deadlifts. I looked on YouTube and all the suggestions I saw didn't really apply to me. Anyone know a way to set these up without dumbbells?

Man, splenda >>>>> stevia

Step on the bands?

Splenda has a crazy weird taste compared to Sweet & Low or Equal.

Weird, I don't get that. I can't really taste any difference between the 3 non-stevia ones tbh.

Not sure if I have bands that small

Damn JF. . Lie in wait with a 12 gauge loaded with rock salt seems like it would be cathartic.

Weasel, other people can probably answer this better than me, but for a bigger band can't you attach each end of the band to the ends of the barbell, then step on the center of the band?

This happened to me too. It was in about 1991, though.
