Press

1x3.

Good workout today.

Ate about 8k calories yesterday mostly in the form of pumpkin pie because it's the best. It will have no effect on my weight loss progress because science. I'll be in the 190s before the New Year so excited about that.

Week 5 weigh-in: 201.6
A little over 16lbs lost. 21.6 to go. Should take me out til around end of March or April.

I should eat more pumpkin pie to accelerate the process.

Press
1x1

Curls.

My press sure has suffered a lot due to my weight loss. I know I know it's fake weight loss. I've really lost 0lbs. Pretty sure once I lose 15 more it will drop substantially.

Haha yeah. I should've probably gone for 240, but I think I'll save that for when I get to 190.

Or just some bumpers that are color-coded to indicate how much they weigh!

Yeah they're a definite plus besides the obvious safety aspect, I like that you can do pin presses with them.

Due to crossfit helium plates, the judges can only credit you with 175lb for those lifts.

I'm not liking that exchange rate. I guess I should invest in some solid gold plates to fight inflation.

From the camera angle, only two 45lb plates are able to be confirmed by the judges. They had to apply the minimum bumper size of 10lb for the other four plates.

I think there are 5lb bumpers. So you are being very generous.

smallest i have seen is 10. BUT, Spyu is quite crafty and is well rolled. I bet he could order some 5 pounders custom that look like 45's and really git those numbers up there

Crossfit has to make the games exciting to watch. So they have developed the latest in fake weight technology. It has done wonders for my PRs.

Just buy a bunch of these and then just add a '4' on there and you're ready to rock.

Yeah, I’m all for making things look more impressive than they are but I’ve never found bumpers below 5kg and even they don’t have as much bounce in them as the larger weights.
