Training day 02-18-2013

In the midst of the chaos, I found time to hit a PR in the floor press today. Don’t remember if it is an all time PR as I have to look back on my old logs, but it’s definitely been a long time since I hit this number laying on the floor.

I’m a rather large mammal. L-holds are Satan for me. Straight up pitchfork to the face lord of the underworld type of movement.

As my iPod blared Agnostic Front (again, screw death metal) I held my big ass on for dear life and thought of warm weather as my abs and hip flexors were screaming mercy in foreign languages. Preferably Espanol since I understand some of that.

Time to head home and cook large quantities of some meat product.

Maybe I’ll be cliche and post a pic of my food…. Maybe not.
