After enjoying the fruits of your labors, we all need a place to chill. This is that place. Totally senseless irrelevant banter encouraged.

30 day cold shower challenge !!!

Post by dill786 »

update..

still weigh 15 stones which is 210 pounds, added more weights to my routine as I am getting stronger and lifting heavier. I stopped skipping for a while but now it's not as cold outdoors I am skipping again, around 20 mins of it before I start lifting, not used the pull-up bar since I screwed it into the wall, still can't do one fucking pull up lol, now I m heavier but my goal is to do 10 straight pull-ups so that's what I going to work towards.

don't miss cigs or weed at all now, don't even casually think about them as I used to a while ago, It has been around 28 months since I last smoked

My mate was saying to join the gym but fuck it, it's downtown and I have to go through the traffic and park up and it's just a hassle, I have motivation so ill be ok but I know what he means as if I work out with other people ill be more motivated and there's a certain amount of comradery
and they have lots more machines too plus the sauna and the steam room, the sauna is really good for the health that is why these NORDIC bastards are so fit and healthy, they usually go into the sauna 3 times a week, studies have been done that saunas are really good for your health.

back when i was in climbing shape i could crank out mabe 22 pullups
my climbing partner could do 50 plus
saw a top boulderer crank out 19 one arm pullup recently

remember being asked how many i could do and my answer was 'why would i want to do one???"

campus'ing is far more useful
combines the pull with a throw to a higher edge or bar

damn never knew


The smokers had 15% higher total testosterone levels and 13% higher free testosterone levels when compared to men who never smoked in their lives. Even more surprising was that increasing the number of cigarettes per day appeared to simultaneously increase both total and free testosterone levels
