Old Mans Updated Progress

[Poppy]

My diet was weird. My sister and hubby have a genuine mansion with a walkout lower level (basement). It’s a whole living area with kitchen and bath. We were able to prepare breakfast and snacks there.

I maintained my protein and carbs at about 130@day. Fat was minimal.

Did light push. Bp with cambered ladder bar 135x12x3
Shoulders tris pecs abs

7 mins on treadmill

10 over/unders. Swim 34 feet on top of water 34 feet back under.

Belt squats

4 plates 4x12 with abs in between. Nuttn fancy or exotic.

Calves, heavy bag for 4 mins (through a zz top song) 10 min moderate/brisk walk

What do your “fat grips” do for you when doing close bench?

 

[Poppy]

For me it relieves the pain I have in my hands, especially thumbs. I put my pointers on the very inboard of the grips and my thumbs off the grips on the inboard side around the bar. The grips are aligned with the smooth part of bar.

My hands are fubar…my thumbs (the only thing that keeps me in the higher order of the phylum) are the worst.

Just do body to head hair transplant

 

[Jonny]

Maybe we could start a kiddie to raise money for poppy’s transplant.

 

[Poppy]

No transplant!!!

Maybe a tub of grease for my combover…

 

[Poppy]

Actually after closer examination of my big head…I think I might have a “pack of hotdogs” under my hair…hmmmm shaving my head would put them on display for everyone’s viewing enjoyment.

Combover or shaved head…decisions decisions
