Ron Paul is the only candidate from any party (with the possible exception of Gary Johnson) who understands what the problem truly is, and the solution.

It is that simple.

It's from one of the greatest books of the 2oth century...."The Boomer Bible".

Here's one my brother just sent:

"May those who accept their fate find happiness. Those who defy it, glory."

Here's some righteous quotage for all (who can name the source without google?):

CHAPTER 4

1 In the light of the fire that had been started by the Shuteye Train,

2 The punks saw musicians who knew nothing about music,

3 Lyricists who knew nothing about words,

4 Revolutionaries who knew nothing about ideas,

5 And not much else.

6 In the glow of the first light they had ever seen,

7 They wondered why they didn't know anything,

8 And why it had never seemed important before,

9 Although they could see that it was important,

10 Because it is obviously an important discovery when you discover you are a nobody,

11 Who knows nothing,

12 And don't even know why.

Life was so crazy that I missed having a meaningful work-out on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (all I managed was a few pull-ups here, a few push-ups there). Uggghhh!

Monday:

100 pull-ups
100 chin-ups
250 push-ups
200 sit-ups
250 squats
400 calf raises


Ran out of time to do weights or the heavy bag or tabata.....but I'm at 2860 push-ups for the month (only 140 to go).

Dont yo think the shear volume of your workouts is preventing your injury from healing fully? I mean a thousand push ups this month, when had it time to heal? I would try to limit your workouts to 2x a week. Short intense session to boost metabolism and speed up recovery and than use the rest of the week to actually heal. Good luck!

2x per week? No way!

But you may be right in that I should stop (or at least minimize) any exercise that includes my arms for a few weeks.

I shoulda read that before today's work-out.....

505 push-ups
200 squats
800 calf raises


205 of the push-ups were pyramid sets. Total for this month's challenge: 1510 (up 610 for the month).

Finally back at it "full time", though the arm injury isn't as healed as I thought. Had to quit pulls & chins...the aching pain is rather constant.

Monday:

30 pulls
30 chins
300 squats
500 calf raises
355 push-ups

tabata:
   stair sprints
   sit-ups
   squats
(160)
   sit-ups
   stair sprints


The push-ups were split into 2 groups - regular sets (150) pre-tabata and a pyramid set (5 to 15 to 5 = 205) post-tabata. I thought the pyramid set was gonna kill me.....

No punching bag or weights until this arm feels better.

Rockin' work-out, man!

SkinnyDevil, whats your max pullups when rested? My current goal is 20.


Tops for me is 41 pulls and 40 chins. But that was a few years back (I tried to do 44 on my 44th birthday, but not only fell short a few chins, but my form was pretty dismal).

My form is cleaned up quite a bit, but the most I've done this year in a single stretch is about 25 during a face-to-face pull-up challenge.

Awesome. I didn't know your injury prevented you from playing. If so, glad that is finally fixed up.

No, no - it didn't stop me from playing guitar, it stopped me from hitting my punching bag. I'd be in real trouble if I couldn't play guitar (other than music, I'm not qualified to do much).

Waiting on the vid!!!!

Thursday:

3 sets Total Gym
200 push-ups
200 sit-ups
200 squats
weight work
(total body...25 minutes)

About 40 minutes total...no breaks at all.
