Rest day for me today...took the little one and wife to a wildlife preserve/petting zoo deal for family day. Good time, had lots of animals you'd see at the zoo plus got to take a family pic holding a baby kangaroo :D. I love those things, would love to have one as a pet.lol. Anyways, nice to spend some qt with the family for a change...business as usual tomorrow. Think its delts and calves day. Hope the holiday weekend's treating y'all brothers good!

Trained legs yesterday. I'm behind on those so its time to get back on it.

Chris, that sounds great. Those times recharge our lives and gives us the things that make life rich.

You all have a great holiday weekend and have some barbecue and a beer. I did.

Tris

Was having a great father/son workout until something shitty happened. I got to the gym 45mins before he did so was about to leave and he was still doing some db flyes. He's had an issue with a swollen elbow, tennis elbow maybe? But he refuses to give up, wont just let it heal...so he has me hand him the 75's and busts out 8 reps. I say "you wanna try the 85's?" He's like "yeah, lets do it". I tell him i was just kidding, better not push it...but now he wants to go heavy.lol. I said "idk dad, thats a serious weight jump" to which he replied "I'm a pretty serious old man!" Keep in mind he is 67 years old, so thats quite a bit of weight for somebody his age. He gets 3 good reps with the 85's and i say "come on one more!" Then a nasty pop comes from his elbow and he drops the db's on his chest on the 4th rep. He got up and it popped back into place, but within minutes a big fucking tumor appeared hanging off his elbow :( I felt like shit, i was joking around about going to the 85's but he wanted to prove himself to me...he refuses to get "old", but this was kind of an eye opener for him-that he's damn near 70 and his body wont let him do what he wants to do. Idk, just feel sorry for him and thought i'd share it i guess. I know it's gonna bother me when i get to that age where there's nothing you can do about it, father time gets us all...

Matt, he looks like a tough man. What happened?

Had a GREAT shoulder workout today. Trying to ramp it up. Training partner was pushing me and I was dishing it right back.

Good to see everyone stopping in!
