Oh lol I see what your saying now ! Yeah but it gets a bit lonely on here on my own til you guys come on lol!
Well I think Jen and I have insomnia so we should be able to keep u company!!
Did I hear you say that you are done with your job for a while? How does that work?
Jen here's a snow pic from last year I found it's right out my front window lol It was crazy![]()
thats awesome! would love to have a white christmas at least once. it would shut the whole state down though lol
Hey zed. Am I supposed to be going ass to grass on squats? If so I ain't doing them right. I'm doing about 90 degrees.

Ah totally chic it's beautiful but a pain in the arse lol I missed shifts last year through it and the poor old lady's across from me from couldn't get anywhere so we had to go shopping for them bless them!!
Nope sweettea no ass to grass squats. Have sugazombie send you that link I sent her awhile back, the pic of the big guy squatting. Thats how you should look. Wide stance, low bar and all about power.![]()

Haha cheeky!! Lmao. Strange isn't it but hey if it works im up for it. Insomnia more like an addiction to EF haha me too !
Yeah I'm done with security til end jan now as no one seems to tour Uk the dec or jan lol maybe too cold for them. And no one can afford tickets with Xmas n that. I don't mind though I have another job only couple hours a day which tides me over with money til then also Elaine's working crazy hours over Xmas so her wage is more than enough even with my huge appetite lol. So then any idea when ur moving Jen?

awwwe thats so sweet of yall to do!
Well, you will probably enjoy the break and have time for working out!!What do you do for your other job?
You know, I really need to figure out when I'm going to move. Ok, school starts Jan. 9th. So I'll probably move the week before to get ready and unpack and get settled. My car is already jammed packed as I've been slowly trying to gather things up that I'll need. I'm obviously leaving all of my furniture and things like that because my husband will still live in our house. However, all of my clothes, bathroom stuff, and some decorations and essential things like MY STEREO I'm brining. So, it looks like I live in my car ATM. I'm still trying to debate what to do for Christmas. We spent thanksgiving with my mother-in-law in Virginia. My mom and dad and grandmother live in Mobile, AL (4 hours away which is actually where I'm moving to for school).....My granddad died recently so I know it's going to be an extremely hard Christmas for my grandmother. They were married like 60 something years. Also, my brother is flying in from Jersey City, which is where he lives, and I typically only get to see him 1 or 2 times a year. Well, the catch is that my husband has my stepson that weekend (Christmas weekend). We have him Friday, Sat and Sun (Christmas morning) but he goes back to his mom's house Christmas evening at 5:00. My husband has to work on Monday as usual. So!!! I'm stumped!! I really want to see my brother and make this Christmas easier on my grandmother. Plus I didn't get to see any of them for THanksgiving. I need to have the inevitable talk with my husband to see just how mad he might get or be at me if I go to Mobile for Christmas!! I want to be with him as well so it's just hard either way.
What will yall do for Christmas? Yall do celebrate Christmas over there right? Know I put my foot in my mouth by telling you Happy thanksgiving!!LOL!!
So, I know I didn't answer your question about moving because I honestly don't know!!I also don't want to miss a day working out so I'll move on the weekend!!! LOL!!
What you got going on today?![]()
Jen here's a snow pic from last year I found it's right out my front window lol It was crazy![]()

Oh chic I don't envy that predicament I hope you manage to come to a decision without stressing too much.
I lol at you packing up your car up already nothing like been prepared Jen haha. As for the stereo good choice I like it aslong as you have music I'm sure u will be fine.
Yeah I will love the break it's sometimes nice just to do nothing lol ,
Today I have gone through my house like a tornado cleaning it lol then I done my other job ( I clean a factory) then came home cooked for my special lady then that's bout it for today lol. Just looking forward to gym tomorrow .
I'm sure no matter what you decide you will have a wonderful Christmas huni. We are going to my parents for lunch I will see my brother and his gf, my sister and her bf my lil niece and my mam and dad should be a lovely day can't wait.

Dead lift 120kg/264lbs - YouTube
Many thanks!
sweettea do your squats exactly like sugazombies. Ive not seen a better squat.
Send me this link?!
Yeah Zeds right your are a real sweetie!! Well tomorrow Elaine's goes to the football match with her dad daytime then night time she has her Christmas party. So I will be calling over to spend the day with my lil mam lol , Sunday Elaine's taking me for Sunday roast my fav meal of the week lol. So how bout you huni? You got your stepson this wkend?
Bless your heart chika you certianly do bust your ass in the gym.
But on your DL your form is off. Reduce weight and you need to have your back exactly like when you do a squat. That flat.
In the vid I couldnt really see what you were doing with your hips cuz the weight was in the way.
Essentially do exactly the same thing that you do when you squat. The only real diff is that you are holding the weight in your hands instead of on your traps/shoulders.
Keep the bar in light contact with your shins, it should just be brushing your pants.
If you can put your cam a little bit in front on the bar I might be able to see better.
Yum...Sunday roast...sounds good. Is it a roast, like beef, or is it an activity?. It would be my fav meal of the week too!! I bet your mom will enjoy your visit.
Maybe y'all can dress up and dance like the you tube video you have posted..the grandancers!! That was hilarious!! Who are the people? Too funny!!
We have my stepson this weekend but only for half the weekend since we will have him next weekend too for Christmas. So we will get him this evening (5) and then his mom will pick him up Saturday afternoon. Most likely we will go Christmas shopping Saturday nite! Need to anyways.
This is kinda freaking me out sugazombie. Reverse flys are for rear delts, supraspinatus, that area...not lats...Workout B......Nice early morning session big huge breakfast of carbs n water then kick arse!!

Yep its addictive.
You progress up in weight every week. Very motivational right there.
And you see yourself gaining slabs of beef, very motivational right there too.
And you look back and see where you started and if you took before pics you look at those....yup, very motivational right there.
It is simple. It is effective. Follow the program just as it is written out and eat. All of this = slabs of muscle on you pretty dam fast!
Very motivational. Very addictive.
Yeah Zed nice words sir!! Slabs beef sounds like my shopping trolly on a Tuesday lol and Jen that's why them roasts do ya good chic lol.

You know we actually have a sign at our gym door saying no grunting it puts other members off lol I pay £420 a year to grunt and that's just what I'll do!! To hell with them! Haha. Thanks sista!!
You're too kind..and yes..super impressed! I've watched your ohp video several times!! Awesome.
Yeah screw that sign..no grunting at the gym..? That's like saying no pork rinds at NASCAR or no drinking at the bar. A grunt is a necessity at the gym!

Sugazombie very nice and very impressive! Also try setting the pins so that the bar is at your chest to start with. Just see if you like that or the way you did it here. Both are fine.
Dam Nice Lift sista!

I still cant really see you back. But from what I could see from your front it looked like the first 2 were pretty good. On that last one it was a struggle for you and it looked like your back did round some.
Be aware of your knees. It kinda looks like they may be caving in just a bit. Better for them to go outwards then inwards.
Love that grunt at the end!
Keep the bar in (light) contact with your legs all the way up. Drop your hips just a little bit more, get a belly full of air and rip it!
Dam nice sugazombie dam dam nice!
I would love to workout with you sometime gurl!![]()
