Welcome to the Pub!


Welcome O' Bro of the Iron.

Put away your cares,
wash the rust and blood stained chalk from your hands,
order up a pint.

Time stands still here.

On the topic of weight, I'm sitting at low 240's these days, 75 pounds over where I started. Also lost at least an inch of height in that time.

In other news, what in the fuck is in the water at Quest? At USAPL men's nationals so far, their lifters have done:

Doc Holliday 695 @ 66
Maliek Derstine 882.5 @83
Charlie Conner 900@93

Capp hasn't gone yet, but he'll go huge.

Guys like Conway, Ricks, Vang and Rivas didn't come to this meet, but are strong as hell too.

When it comes to single ply, they are by far the best team in north America. Folks should check out their youtube page: https://www.youtube.com/user/QuestAthletics1/videos , highlights being Derstine and Ricks' individual lifts along with the Quest weekend videos.
 
Legend of Zelda games are the bomb. I suggest finding a Super Nintendo emulator online, buying a controller for your computer, and playing Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Probably my favourite game for the SNES.

The last one for the GameCube (Twilight Princess) was solid too. Wind Waker (also on GameCube) was good but kinda suffered by having to travel around on a boat all the time though the actual quests and dungeons were great. Ocarina of Time on the N64 is often considered the best of the series but I haven't played it.

The Nintendo 3DS has plenty of good games, including two Zeldas (a remake of a Link to the Past) and a new one. Since KA is an afficionado of the Greatest Gaming Series Ever And It's Not Even Close, I am guessing he either has one or is planning to get one. So updated Zelda action is a possibility for him.
I have not played and do not own any Zelda game though I'm being convinced to look in to them. Might get one for 3DS or download an emulator. Does being confused about the "Zelda timeline" take away from the games?

Actually, I never played one either!

If you have an Android device, the DraStic emulator is great option - works incredibly well. But playing on my daughter's 3DS has left me really impressed with those things. So if it were me and I had my own 3DS, I would probably get one for that.
 
How's life and training going, Legio?

Hey man. Things are going pretty well. After about five months of not training, unless you count pull ups, I can finally use a barbell again. I've taken an interest in bike sprinting and have spent a fair amount of time training or that. Fortunately, squatting and pulling are staples of sprint training(or so I've gathered from the trackies), so I have a good excuse to still lift. Also, don't have to worry about my weight so it's been pretty progressive. Fun stuff.

Work keeps me covered up but it's still 90% enjoyable. So, I can't complain.

How's things for you my man?
 
Am I allowed to drink in this Pub, or am I still Banned?

I'm happy for you to stop by for a swift one. From your log I can see you have at least made an effort to improve your shoulder mobility.


Plus, the last pub was slooooow.
 
Had bacon and eggs for breakfast. For a bedtime snack, I'll have steak and eggs.
 
I had pancakes and eggs for breakfast. Now I'm having fried egg sandwich.

I like the cut of your jibb, tosa.
 
I had smoked bacon and scrambled eggs for breakfast. Tomorrow will be smoked bacon and poached eggs. Back to work tomorrow after a good few weeks off, which means back to my regular gym.
 
If you add up the heaviest deadlifts done in competition by these three russians you get 2690 pounds. Sick
