    The official Workout, Exercise & Diet Thread...

    Updates? Well dudes, updates since it's been about a year... Prefacing all this with I don't use lifting straps or back belts. Just chalk and core stiffness for me. November I pulled #340 as a new 1RM on my Deadlift. Got #365 off the ground to a hover but didn't want to risk the blown...

    What did you do to your bike today?

    I didn't do anything to my bike per se, and I didn't do it today sadly. I'm updating from the last thing that happened to my bike (aka last year). I got a new helmet and visor courtesy of my manfriend/significant other (we're not married, and sad to say we're not boy and girl anymore, sigh...

    Put a face to your name....

    This may have been the longest delayed response ever but...I hear ya 100%...I actually found out about a full contact full gear women's league in Ontario Canada and that got me interested. I just probably shouldn't after the concussions I've had :( But played powderpuff again this year, girls...

    Would a neck guard prevent this type of injury?

    Physics and angles. Me and a girl went head to head in a soccer game and even though I gave her stitches...she gave me a concussion. I didn't realize how bad my neck was out until a year later I strained my mid back doing a 65lb power clean. I had to drop a course in university and register...

    Rider Insurance Policy Change

    I wish insurance was this cheap in Canada. I would be paying $2200/year with no accidents, no tickets, and I'm over 25...I'm just fortunate there's still one insurance company in my area that strikes deals, but I'm still paying more than you guys at $550/year.

    lol all depends where you keep your fat. I don't keep it on my abs, and my muscles make the six pack shape. Some abs just don't do that. We all got our spots of fat, which isn't the worst thing ever :) Although if I didn't keep it where I do I'd get a lot fewer cat calls...which does get...

    No, and I don't plan to because I know how inaccurate the measuring tools are. I go by measurements, the fit of my clothes, and whether or not I can see a six pack lol.

    How's the planks going and goat bags going? Guess I should post an update...Been following Jim Wendler's 5/3/1 program. If you haven't heard of it and you want to go beast mode strong then I suggest you look him up. Because he will make you feel like a wimp. He's a no BS kinda guy and I love...

    What do you drive when your not riding?

    Well, here's what I'll be driving this summer instead of riding... 1990 F150. Nothin special other than the standard paint flecking and chipping off which was normal for those years. Replaced the rusty rims with some cheap steelies for it with a bit beefier tires...other than that it's stock...

    What did you do to your bike today?

    After a lonnnnnnng winter that doesn't seem to wanna quit (there's still snow on the ground)...I started it up. Today, since there was a good long soaker of a rain yesterday, which I'm pretty sure washed all the salt off the road, she's comin out of the garage and I'm taking her for a spin...

    Sounds like bench press and shoulder press. Can vary the incline of the bench, or try your hand at dumbells (dunno how bad your back is). These are Wide grip lat pull down and seated row. Change the grip width (to shoulder width, or narrow grip), and the rotation of your grip (palms facing...
