JLee Training Log Vol1

[JLee]

Yes sir. 5 to 515. Got tomorrow off though

 

[Bigmurph6]

Enjoy your 4th brother sorry you gotta work

 

[Poppy]

Working man!

That’s a long day brother. Is your picnic basket packed full?

 

[JLee]

Appreciate that. I’ll make the most of it. It’s OT plus holiday pay so it works out fine. Besides it’s been cold and raining almost all weekend! Not much fun and festivities going on anyway

 

[JLee]

Breakfast, snack, lunch and dinner! I have my dinner before I leave and have a small snack before bed. There’s a couple of lifters at my job so I’m not the only person coming in with bags of food!

 

[Poppy]

Hahaha you sound exactly like me!!! Get that premium pay.

Had an old man tell me a long tome ago, concerning premium pay, “boy, would you walk out your front door and step over a hundred dollar bill or would you bend down and pick it up?”

I’ve never forgotten that.

 

[JLee]

My kids are older now so working the holidays isn’t a big deal anymore.

 

[Poppy]

Got to feed the @JLee machine!

 

[Bigmurph6]

Ahh that sucks we have had rain also its been hot and nasty out I hope that it doesn’t rain tonight a couple of places already did there show because of the weather

 

[Poppy]

So you got up at 0-dark thirty… went to the gym and trained, legs no less, and working a 12 hour shift… 5a-5p?

You’re the poster child for FOCUSED!

 

[Bigmurph6]

Terminators everywhere at ugmuscle lol

 

[herrubermensch]

That is our defining characteristic.

 

[Bigmurph6]

It truly is brother we gotta stay indestructible and use metal parts

 

[JLee]

Lol. I wish. If I go after work I’m tired and my training sucks. The only draw back is if work sucks and I’m running around I pay for it. I usually luck out because it’s not to often.

 

[herrubermensch]

Following this! I really appreciate that we have so many experienced lifters in their 40s and 50s (and soon, ahem @Poppy, their 60s!) on the board putting out their routines and diets and protocols.

 

[JLee]

The bonus of being there that early…it’s empty. Occasionally there might be one person there but that’s rare.

 

[Poppy]

@JLee I know you’re a humble guy brother. But you’re a pace setter. Like it or not you’ve got many guys looking at your dedication and focus and feeding off of it.

 

[Poppy]

@herrubermensch

I caught that! Blahahaha.

I want to be the “good example” of an old guy.

The two brothers in the movie Secondhand Lions.

 

[JLee]

Nope. I just have no life except for work and the gym. It’s hard to find time to socialize when you work the majority of the weekends. Nobody wants to hangout on a Wednesday!

 

[Poppy]

Hahaha i hear ya
