Exercise for the day: putting up with the Mrs TA's emotional shit as the prospect of moving out of our house of thirteen years starts to form as a reality in her mind.
Honestly she only wanted to do it because one of her friends moved to an even nicer, newer place than the vapid, skinny, tart had already. Mrs TA promptly got all moist about the nice kitchens we saw in display homes in the area.
Now she's having a fucking moment about it all, thinking about the fact it's our first home, our kids have never lived anywhere else etc etc.
If I'd have known she was going to get all weepy like this I could have easily sold her on a kitchen renovation and saved myself a couple of hundred K. Admittedly the prospect of a bigger garage appeals...
Jeez-o-fkn-pete I reckon the Red Baron is due in on the next train the way this is looking. Hopefully the slimy fluffybunnys we put in charge of selling it get us what we want.
Besides that it was 37 degrees here today so fuck exercise.
Peace out.

<p>Yeah Morty is well freckled though. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Walked twice this week for 3km each. One at work, one this morning after trying to run again. Looks like that left Achilles hasn't come good even after long rest, so will get into the physio and see what's up with my alignment there.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Contemplating a quick lifting session... or a beer. Stay tuned.</p> -
Only noticed it when I started running again after that rugby tournament, so I reckon I've probably had a rib popped which messes with my whole back/hip alignment. Walking isn't the same, I can tolerate that, though I've noticed a twinge in my right quad when I do so.<br /><br />Will try to get in with the physio next week to get it straight. Then I'll get back to short, sharp runs (5 km or less) and sprint training

Bit of a change up tonight - went back and did a Shift Weight (Pull ups and push press starting with 5 of each then dropping 1 per at fail - 20 minutes):<br /><br />5s: 4<br />4s: 8<br />3s: 4<br />2s: 8<br />1s: 1<br /><br />Total reps = 81<br />Weight was 94 kg me + 50kg weight = 144kg.<br /><br />Total shifted is therefore: 11664kg.<br /><br />Not bad for first time back.

Been a bad week eating wise but the old man passed away on Tuesday morning so I've been a little distracted.<br />
<br />
Not entirely unexpected when he's a 67 year old who had had a couple of massive heart issues in the past, and was probably a few years lucky that way. <br />
<br />
Thankfully we got to see him recently (they live interstate and are mad caravan grey nomads), but it didn't make the whole episode suck any less...<br />
<br />
The message is: don't smoke two packs a day, watch your eating, and listen to the doctor! -
<p>aw shit bro, really sorry to hear about your dad passing away. Hope you and the family are doing ok</p>

<p>So the only exercise I've done in the week was Sunday morning immediately after the weigh-in above! (Or the "With in" as my autocorrect likes to put it).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Walk 3km in 25:51, then run 1km in 4:45, then walk 1km in 9:36.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Weigh in on Sunday: 91.7kg, Chest 105, Waist 98, Hips 102, Callipers nothing different.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hopefully with the house shit now sorted out, I can get in a couple of garage sessions and some bike riding. I think I'm fucked for now on the distance running - left achilles is just not liking it at all, so barring some physio, which I don't have time for anyway, I'll just stick to weights and maybe try a couple of sprint sessions on grass</p> -
<p>try my latest pull up routine-and you can extend it to other exercises: <span style="font-size:14px;">do your max reps, then every 5 seconds do another-continue till failure.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Reason: builds strength and stamina, great from forearm workout too.</p>
<p>I did 52 total (15+37) with 5 second breaks all the way, will aim more of course.</p> -
