My bench is holding at 295, OHP is 210, and squats and deads are coming back after an injury (fell of a ladder and did a number on my back) and should be back into the mid 300s/low 400s pretty soon. Bodyweight is stagnant at 265 though, not losing much :( has me frustrated! Hopefully next week I can get 3x5 with 275 on squats and get back to getting stronger vs making up lost ground. Injuries suck.

I just started back after 1.5 weeks off (mostly). I'm worried it could be worse but so far so good. I started to develop what I think was tendinitis from over-use of heavy weighted chins and pulls. I cut rack-chins from my accessory work in the mean time and stopped curling until further notice. I'm sitting at a 200 1RM bench, unknown max squat (eager to find out, my last setup I couldn't go heavy without fear of an accident) but I've hit 250 no problem so I think I have some room, and 305 for my PR deadlift. I was stuck at crappy numbers on my bench for the longest. My OHP is a joke, AC joint in my left shoulder is fubared from an accident. It clicks when I bench, and it impinges easily from OHP - though with the new setup I can possibly get around that from a starting point where I don't clean the weight into position.

Saw a sweet vid last week on reddit where this dude squattted 905 Raw and couldn't do more due to the bar not supporting it. Reddit came together and bought the guy a super thick bar that could hold excess of over 1000lbs so he can get practicing.

saw his squat, hadn't heard about the bar :D Mine's only rated 600, hoping to get a Texas Power Bar or something soon. And a swiss bar with the various width neutral grips; that should make some of the pressing more joint friendly.

I pretty much took an all day nap yesterday. Having the flu sucks.

Not to mention all of the ratings you must already possess just to start the process. $3,000/hour + fuel implies an investment of $30K or so to get your type certificate.

First you'd need to find CAD software that is compatible with a 20-year-old version of UNIX on MIPS. You do realize that a modern Android smartphone probably has more compute horsepower than an SGI Indy?

I've been in the Pacific Northwest now for about a year and a half, and... I actually like the weather. It doesn't get as hot as PHL does, yet it doesn't get as cold. We get more cloudy days, and maybe a bit more rain. Bellevue itself seems to be in a bit of a bubble, too - nearby Kirkland, Redmond and Woodinville will get snow, but Bellevue would get rain, if anything. People keep telling me "oh, Seattle gets a ton of rain" - and that's probably true for Seattle, but most "rainy days" are so light you don't even need to put a hood up.

We almost made it through the season without getting snow - we got a light dusting yesterday morning, according to my roommates. I slept through it.

Isn't your main goal to just be healthy? 295 is a damn good bench. I think you should focus on getting fit more than lifting more, dude. I can't remember how tall you are, but if you're under 6' I think it's time to really focus on getting the diet and cardio stuff going.

Yo JBI, don't you have a Sansa Clip?

I have a phone for most of my portable music needs, but I want something for the gym. I want some small, lightweight, not Apple (I just really don't want to use iTunes if I don't have to), and will play at least a few codecs. Just wondering what you thought of it.

Yup, I have a Clip+. Great sounding little player, and expandable with micro-SD cards. My only complaint is that the clip on the newer Clips could be sturdier; the hinge broke after a few months. Fortunately I don't actually clip my Clip so it didn't really matter to me.

I got a Clip+ for my wife for Christmas a couple of years ago. It's still working nicely and it works with Linux on the host computer.
