Have seen a couple of stretching programmes online which I am tempted to order because since I'm not doing Pilates my already limited flexibility has gotten worse which is not ideal. It would be quite nice to add the splits to my array of tricks and obviously at 42 things are only gonna get worse before they get better if nothing is done about it !
Good park session yesterday, freezing in the shade but satisfying busting out some dips, chins etc.

I need to do more pilates. Started going for a bit to the wife's classes but meant that needed someone to look after the kids while I went and not too interested in going to some of the other trainers classes. Maybe should as it is farken good
Yeah blokes seize up much quicker than women overall which sux, not entirely sure why that is.

Got back into a good tire flipping session on Saturday and by crikey the hammies and guns are feeling it today. That combined with a big bodyweight dip session ( over 100 reps spread over a few sets ) means I'm screaming for a day or two off. Have also made a massive pot of Cajun Gumbo soup which has lasted a few days so mrs MN5 and I have been pretty good with the eats too apart from a few glasses of red.
Getting some niggly pain in the right arm tendons as well so better pay attention to that.
I'm also wary of the massive hours I'm spending behind the wheel for work, not good for anyone to sit down like that for ages on end at any age let alone early 40s.

Couple of questions. Are you back with the missus and are you a bus driver now?

Aha. But in relationship and lots of driving. The first one is great 👍.
But yeah driving sucks. Anything more than 2 hours drives me insane.

@MN5 meant to say well done! caught the FB update. Noice work good sir
Thanks me old mate. She's exactly half my weight and nice and active although coming back from surgery so taking things easy. We are looking into stuff we can do together, she has a background in body sculpting, yoga etc. Martial Artist too but my superior reach and controlled aggression means I could waste her if I had to

Arguably one of the the most fucked up things I've read on TSF. But also the funniest.

Woke up in my hotel and realised I haven't done much physical for a few days so decided on some flying Superman push ups to speed up the metabolism for the day ( most of which will involve sitting in a car ) I also saw an abandoned looking playground on my drive up here so will pop in for a few chins/dips on the way back provided this fantastic Naki weather holds up.
If Charles Bronson ( prisoner not the actor although he was jacked as fuck too ) can get strong and fit in solitary confinement there's no reason why the rest of us can't.
I am feeling hungry though and lunch isn't til 12 !!!

Had a steak, chips and salad at the pub alongside a stout I managed to sit on for about half an hour. Fucken shitloads of highway patrol men up and down the country and DIC would be quite the CLM. I love Stout in cold, rainy weather.
I also popped in to visit an old mate up the Coast, her partner is an ex circus performer so I had a great time scaling the apparatus ! their kids are already well into it and will be a pair of spider monkeys. Definitely gonna take my boys up for a hoon on the bars, rings and ropes.
Super workout that.

Well gotta confess the DOMS is setting in from yesterdays climbing but I should really go out and do some big curls seeing as every day is arm day. @Paekakboyz @Rancid-Schnitzel @JK it's on the interweb so definitely true. Watch, learn and be inspired.
