Chest and biceps today. Very good.
Due to school holidays have been training every morning with the gf. She likes to walk to and from gym (about 20min each way) which is a good warmup/warmdown. Don’t usually have time when kids have to get to school.Fark the GF hammers it in the gym as well. Does heaps of that Les Mills interval pump whatever training. Those ridiculous harpies who crap on about being strong and independent should take a look at what a real strong and independent woman actually looks like. I’m very lucky.
Good shit, do any other muscles even matter ?

They’re probably also the easiest to train. Chest in particular is easy to hammer, whether through BP, dips or push-ups.

Didn’t think I’d be swimming this week but got a text last night from Hitler asking if I wanted to go this morning. Yes please Herr Hitler.
They say when you have 1 week out of the water it takes 3 weeks to catch up. With me it takes 3 months. Hitler didn’t exactly allow me to ease into it. He gave me a set of options, all of which inflicted pain (different sets of 400m - chose one with 25max at the start of each 100. Then some land work inbetween.
Tough, but went quickly and was glad to get in the water again.

I’m loving all sorts of chest variations at the moment, definitely good to mix things up a bit although ya gotta watch the tendons and shoulders when going heavy.

Saturday: Not the best communication, but swimming also on on Saturday so stoked about that. Was another pretty tough session with a few max efforts.
Followed that up by running for 1h30min. Made about 16.5km. It hurt but that’s all part of it I guess. Found a route that isn’t quite as hilly, but it wasn’t exactly flat. Went to town on the eating after that. Had normal breakfast but then a pack of Mission corn chips with 2 tins of sweet chilli shredded chicken, then 2 chicken schnitzels with rice, then another 3 schnitzels with a pizza. Also had 2 slices of vegemite toast, 2 protein bars, 3 cups of berries, two muesli bars and a bowl of peanuts. I disgust myself.

@rancid-schnitzel What size schnitzel are we talking bout here?
Belgian cafe? Frozen from supermarket? Home made?
5 in a day is quite impressive though. How you got your name has me wondering ...

Frozen from supermarket. About medium sized. Not those huge ones you get from a Munich Brauhaus.
If I had to choose a last meal it would be schnitzel with Bratkartoffeln.

I love me some good schnitzel, breadcrumb, flour and eggs and you can’t go wrong although it is a messy process. It’s not something I have at a restaurant too often cos I just haven’t found much that is really good in my opinion.

They generally do them pretty well over here although I have had some shockers. Doesn’t compare to what you get in Germany though 😋

My boys took me and their stepdad ( “took” being a weird way of saying it as we had to pay haha ) to the Munchen Beer Garden for Father’s Day a couple of years back, bloody good spot with the big long tables and everyone indulging in some schnitzel, Bavarian beer and perving at the bar wenches ( well, only I did that )

Those places are generally great value. A good hearty feed, awesome beer and fine entertainment (he he). I’d love to set up a proper beer garden at my place. That would be cool. What’s interesting with Germany though is that there are very different drinking cultures even from town to town. For instance where my old man comes from (NW Germany) they don’t drink those massive beers you get in Bavaria. They prefer 0.3l. In Cologne they go even smaller with 0.2l and glasses that almost look like test tubes. But then 20 min away you get Dusseldorf where they prefer dark beer. It’s pretty damn cool.
Hmmm, ironic we’re discussing beer and fried food on a fitness forum 😁

I know, I don’t have a sweet tooth and never eat pastries, cakes, lollies etc but fried food and beer are a massive weakness if I’m not careful.
We had our beer from the big steins, good fun stuff !

@voodoo said in Building myself back up:
I do veal schnitzel at least once per week for myself. It's not cheap, and now the bloody kids have figured out they like it too. Quick pan fry to get it golden brown and smash it with lemon juice. Magic.
True, completely forgot that, so fucken delicious.

All this talk about schnitzel is making me insanely hungry! And it’s still 5 days until cheat day😫.

Have it without the crumbs, that still counts. Just add a shitload of lemon juice to it.
