I work in international development. The programs I manage deal primarily with disaster risk reduction and humanitarian assistance, so, for example, responding comprehensively to the flooding in Pakistan. Although if you ask adarq, I'm a spy for the CIA.
I want/need:
- a scale
- a tiger tail
- a different place to do jumps
Tiger tail like from vinnie the pooh?
Tiger tail like this:
Also, lol @ "vinnie" the pooh. You Europeans...

What?

BW = idk
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = none
DIET = fine, more veggies than usual because half the people made salad for the staff meeting/pot luck at work today
Gym was a complete waste. I was at work til 8:20 so didn't get to the gym until 9, then realized that the worthless, snivelling old fucks were having their weekly game so I couldn't use the court. I am terrible at improvising in the gym, once thrown from my planned workout I'm lost. So I did some SMR, shot the shit with a guy I'm gonna take snatch lessons from sometime soon, who has all the SMR toys imaginable. Then once the fucks stopped playing, I did some sprinter's warm ups and did 5 sprints. They felt great, light and fast. Then I tried one jump and slipped, got pissed and at that point it was 9:45, the gym was closing in 15 minutes and I called it a night.

You left handed? One of the owners of my gym was a pro rugby player who retired and then came to the US, where he promptly made the US National Team (shows you how good we are at rugby...we get other people's retirees...). Point is, he can still one-handed snatch 135 so easily, it's ridiculous. Such a badass move. Nice work.

^^^ What he said. Why would you spend so much money when there's a much, much cheaper option?
EDIT: I had forgotten the heavy metals discussion from last summer but went back and looked... I don't remember why I singled those two out but I assume it's because when I looked around they had the highest heavy metal content. Or something like that. But again, I wouldn't worry about it too much. If that's what's standing between you and Muscle Milk, go ahead and flush that money right down the toilet.

40/30/20/10 squat/crunch/push up(/2) ladder -- short and easy, just to get blood flowing a little bit
stretch
where's the ADARQ (TM) format wtf?????
Wasn't planning to use it for random SMR/stretching/cardio days, but maybe I should...
Why are you squatting so light lately? An injury i missed or getting back from xmas off?
Checked fast a few pages back but didn't find anything...
Injured hip mildly after I got my new squatting shoes, so I rested a bit, backed way off and went back to higher reps to try to get the tissues conditioned properly before I get back into heavier stuff.
