Training I expect I'll continue for 10 more weeks with a strength then possibly a power cycle, then as Spring hits it'll be time for a short break.

I had a dream about deadlifting last night. Should I be conserned? Currently I'm trying a program in which I only deadlift every four weeks, and even then it's quite light. I sure love that lift. Even if this program works, I will stop doing it after the 12-16 weeks or so. Because Deadlifting > everything.

Re: Random crap
No. Don't be concerned. This is normal. All normal people want to be powerlifers down deep, whether they admit it or not. If you had dreamed of being a bodybuilder, I'd recommend therapy.Dub wrote:I had a dream about deadlifting last night. Should I be conserned?

Well, we've gotten our passports with our shiny, new, multiple-entry visas for PNG. We are now on track to leave early Tuesday, and to arrive back in our beloved Highlands on Friday. Workout schedule will suffer some until we're back there.

Re: Random crap
I learned today that the two new barbells at my gym are 55 lbs, not 45 lbs. Consequently, many of my recent lifts were more than I thought.

I benched last night whilst wearing a weight belt.

You'll be wearing it for curls next.
And don't try and pretend you don't do curls. I know you do.
Re: Random crap
haha, just seen that. I do train biceps.
In the last 10 weeks, i've had one bicep curl variation per week. 3 x 10 of reverse curls (these seem to really help sore elbows, btw - I forgot about them until recently).
The 10 weeks before that is was normal EZ bar curls, 3 x 10.
I actually have full intention of doing more arm work but it's been difficult to consistently fit more than that in so far. Still, though, it's progress.

Re: Random crap
For some reason I was thinking about "Quantum Leap" today, and how different that show would have been if the Scott Bakula character was a complete, irresponsible jerk. Some poor guy would wake up and find a note that read as follows:
"Hey, I borrowed your body for about a week. Sorry about the herpes. Also, you're gonna want to stay away from Baltimore. The police are going to be looking for you there. In fact, you better stay out of Maryland entirely. Meanwhile, if a guy named Vinny shows up looking for his money, you need to pay him. He's not the kind of person you play games with.
Smell ya later,
Sam
PS) Your wife's sister is WILD! I'm pretty sure your wife heard us though. My bad."

Re: Random crap
I am now the oldest missionary on Kudjip Station, where we live in Papua New Guinea. There may be a few older locals here, but I doubt it, since most retire here at 55. The previously oldest just left to take a new assignment. This is a little bit like being the oldest person in town. Happily it's a very small town.

I broke two wrist straps on one set today ... first one, then the other, within a second of each other.
