Nothin' But a Peanut!

Does anybody else look at our traffic?  We have like, 100 views a day!

Yesterday's workout:

Squat 375lbs: 5/3/3, 365lbs x 3.  Crap.  It's all about nutrition and rest.  I haven't slept well the last few days and I ate less than usual the day before.

Press: 140lbs: 5/5/3.  Crap again.  See  the above.  The first set was the closest I'd ever come to fainting during a set.  I had my belt pretty tight, and took a deep breath and held it before starting to press.  I started getting tunnel vision like, 3 reps in.  Can't believe i managed to finish it.

Deadlift: mostly worked on form.  Did some reps at 325, 345, 365.

I recently watched Ronnie Coleman's training video called "The Unbelievable".  It's pretty hilarious and you guys should check it out.  The best line is: "Everybody wanna be a bodybuilder, but don't NOBODY wanna lift no heavy ass weight!"  His voice is also really high for someone who is 300lbs @ 5% bodyfat.  Also before any lift he likes to say either "light weight!" or "nothin but a peanut!".  I've found myself doing this recently.

I won't fault him for not hitting depth because he probably...can't?  He just has too much leg muscle.

  1. This is hilarious. I'm definitely yelling light weight before every snatch.

    Also hilarious that people in India read this.

    Can't say I've ever pushed myself hard enough to come close to passing out. Though I can see how on presses you dint want to be taking breaths between sets. I'll have to work harder I guess.
