After procrastinating for too long...Might as well start this now; 8/4/11 Bodyweight ~245 19:30-20:45 PWO meal:Greek yogurt, 3 brats on double fiber bread with brown mustard, water and a coffee. 21:15 Front squat 45#X10(warmup/stretch) 45#X10 65#X10 95#X8 135#X8 185#X8 Rear Squat 225#X6 275#X3 245#X4 All squats are to thighs parallel, slightly wider than shoulder width stance. Hex bar Deadlift (I'm assuming the bar weighs 50#, it could be more/less) 230#X6 280#X6 320#X4 370#X4 Cybex reclined leg press, moderately wide stance (no clue about the weight here, I list only the pounds added. I just use this to get a good stretch on the hams/glutes) 270#X8 450#X8 540#X4 Lunges 50#X8 70#X8 90#X8 Cable/stack upright seated leg press(just because I had a little left in me) (the numbers dont mean much on this machine, I just use what feels appropriate) 1/2 the stack X 10 whole stack X 11 PostWO meal:28 oz Gatorade, 1 tsp glutamine, 20 oz water Fortunately the 7mm kidney stone currently lodged in my ureter didnt interrupt the fun. I plan on throwing practice this Saturday if the stone plays nice. We'll see... ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants? No Ma'am...hot steel balls!" Jerry Clower |

8/6/11 Throwing practice with John Allen. ~1 1/2 hrs(?) in the heat. 42WOB Light Hammer LWFD caber didnt keep count of anything, but picked up some pointers that I'm sure will help me. The afterworkout pool and beer was refreshing and therapeutic. Thanks John!

Im feeling grouchy and irritable... I need to find a meathead gym that doesnt allow smedium shirts, metrosexuals and wannabe male strippers. It'd also be nice if I could lift without feeling like Im in the f***in club because of the too loud music. grumble grumble me:"Hey man, you using that rack?" tool:"yes, I only have one more set" me:"But youre not using the rack, right? Youre just using the mirror?" tool:"Oh, yeah, but I only have one set left" me:"Ok, so I can use this rack then?" tool:"O, uhm, yeah, I can just move back..." me:"Thanks"

8/27/11 and 8/28/11
Not exactly a workout, but after 1-1/2 weeks of doing nothing but eating pain meds every day, laying about the house in a warm bath and doing not much at all, this was a workout; Saturday; Assemble and paint 5 beehive boxes, assemble 20 frames. Load up and drive to the homestead. Check out my dad's old garden tractor, spend 2 hrs identifying problems, taking apart a few pieces. Lots of rust, a few black widows, no scrapes, cuts or bites...ok, some mosquito bites but they dont count. 
PWO meal; homemade veggie soup and lemonade. Sunday; Open and inspect all the hives. Put on the two boxes I prepared from the day before. Realize I have to catch a swarm, set up a catch box. Rehydrate. Finish diagnosing the garden tractor. Grunted and sweated for a few more hours breaking things loose, filing, scraping, cleaning, turning wrenches and such. Test drive, success. PWO meal; Grilled salmon, steak, zucchini squash, bellpeppers, potato salad, limeade. If that dont make me throw far, nothing will.  ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants?

9/12/11 "PWO nutrition": a couple of Sam Adams Octoberfests and a steak after work. 15 or so stone throws at ~80% 15 Sheaf throws (17lb) at ~80%, just focusing on getting it to fall behind me and peak in the right spot, height dont matter much if I keep bouncing it off the uprights.

Had a great time at Charleston 9/17. Good bunch of guys and impressive competitors. At 250lbs I was still the little guy! haha! I got a PR in the LWFD, 55'11". yay! Felt great the day after, but by Monday my shoulders were starting to feel sore. By Wednesday my left shoulder was hurting a little and today it's still hurting and a bit stiff. Ergo, no working out for me until I feel better. WTF? DOMS in the rotator cuff? Light stretching, ice/heat and ibuprofen only. ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants?

Maybe I should just stop working out all together. It's been since before Charleston that I have even darkened the door of the gym or practiced throwing. But I did really well at Scotland County this weekend, finished the year on a high note. PRs in HWFD and LWFD (thanks John Allen for the coaching!) I never thought Id get close to 60' in the LWFD but I pulled it out of somewhere and threw a 59'7.5" !
HWFD, my goal for the year was to reach 25'...I got a 27'1" ! Turned the caber all three times. Did decent in everything else but hammer....still tugging on it, c'est la vie. While at the games my brothers wife had her baby, so that was a bonus. 
And last but not least, I got to hang out with a great bunch of guys for a crisp October day and had a downright stupid fun time. All the PRs and numbers and competition was great, but the best part was just hanging out with my friends(old and new) all weekend. Just good people and I'm fortunate to be able to step on the field with all of them. ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants? No Ma'am...hot steel balls!" Jerry Clower |

I like reading the different training logs, I sometimes LOL because I am doing NOTHING like everybody else. My workouts are are less than 20 minutes in the gym and less than an hour when throwing. Usually train alone, don't like getting chatty in the gym. I may post a training log one day (when I have some respectable numbers) but until then, I'll just keep reading everybody else's.

Guess I should hang my head in shame, huh?
Im just working a lot, and spending time "recuperating." I'd like to say it's because Ive been deer hunting too much, but that would be a lie, it's work. I did make it into the gym Monday and did some incline presses and some lat pulldowns. ugh...

Went to VA last week to do a little hunting. Climbing
those hills was certainly fun. Starting a 3 day a week lifting, 2 throwing practice routine for about the next 5 weeks. Emphasis on increasing cardio and stamina. We'll see how well I can stick to it. Work and hunting season do take their toll on the clock. 12/05 Started off with 15 minutes on the elliptical. So much better on the joints than the treadmill, IMO. Incline bench 4 sets of 8-10 Lat cable pulls 4x10 Smiff(th) mil press

okey dokey then... Midnight thirty 12/22-12/23 had a wild hair and went to the gym and messed around..... Havent really done any Clean and presses since high school so, it's ugly.... first one, 185 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyPv7fGFgNQ" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyPv7fGFgNQ
then a swing and a miss on 225...I LOL'd at my lack of flexibility http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hP1BHqXPXCw" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hP1BHqXPXCw
and finished up with a PR deadlift of 405 ugly, but I'll take it for now. Definitely need to work on grip strength, woulda had it on the previous attempt but it rolled right out, had to use straps because the "gym" doesnt allow chalk. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Cb-Q2pSZEg" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Cb-Q2pSZEg

I figure if enough people point and yell "You're not doing it right!" then maybe I can try to learn and make perhaps some gains. On that note... 12/27/11 Some incline benching, not much... A couple sets of 225 for 8-10 reps then this trainwreck..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHQ-hq8m-X8" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHQ-hq8m-X8
So watching this I'm hearing Henry Rollins song in my head....."

12/29/11 Met my old college buddy in Shelby for our once a year "go to the gym and catch up and shoot the shit session" Started out with squats and old times a few warmup sets with the bar, 135 and 225...8rep 315 x1 then a PR 330X2 although I dont think the first one was low enough to count. You can hear my buddy making fun of me for recording this "Capture the moment..." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMwpSdQJAoE" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMwpSdQJAoE
then deadlifts, 225x8 for a few sets then I was feeling froggy and thought I'd jump on this while Tom made fun of my Lumberjack look.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlkZ3MPQuuY" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlkZ3MPQuuY
so, yeah....grip strength is in my near future. It felt good but my nubby little fingers didn't comply. That was attempt two. Had to get something off the floor so back to 315x4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4af5ziY684" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4af5ziY684
After that we did some leg presses on the machine 3x8 and talk about mutual friends and family. He is a teacher and now works with my high school football coach from 20 years ago, small world. Then some lat pulldowns for a few sets, inevitably politics comes up....He was doing calf raises between sets. I wasnt since I was blessed with good Cornish genetics and he is a straight up guido who needs to do calf raises. Ended with some rowing at which point the topic was still politics but now he had also moved on to saying I looked like a Viking in a long boat so I got that going for me.  Afterwards, Denny's ultimate omelette and talking about old times again.....all in all a good evening. ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants? No Ma'am...hot steel balls!"

Did you not use chalk? If not, that is the answer to your DL grip problem.

I was visiting a buddy's regular place. The gym didnt allow chalk. Neither does my regular place, they keep yelling at me and threatening to cancel my membership. That's ok, I'm gonna "... take that deal 'n' crawfish..." then go to a real gym soon. 1/1/12 Went to the club today, didnt get any drinks or pick up any chicks, just did some military presses kinda light, kinda 8 reps, kinda 6-7 sets then a few curls and triceps extensions It's my pre-deload week, next week I do mostly nothing. ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants?

I can see that if I want to make any progress the "brah" gyms won't cut it. This
is the place I usually go to years ago before I left Charlotte... used to be decent, now it's a dump. They
have sternly warned me about chalk and "dropping" weights....shit, Im
not even strong and they cant handle it, I'd love to see some real
weight get moved there. Theyd freak out.It's definitely got the "club" atmosphere...i.e. obnoxiously loud music and no shortage of tools. So for your amusement and entertainment; Yes thats Lady Gaga or some other godawful popmusic tripe playing too damned loud.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbbJNxAqbOc" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbbJNxAqbOc What is that ? Thunder? Carpet bombing? Earthquake? No, it's a too loud, bass heavy sound system. I think I need a mixed drink because I think Im at the club. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6UmJUB1qfc" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6UmJUB1qfc And this is just simply LAME...and yes, more obnoxiously loud music. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4A6oU6C2RDM" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4A6oU6C2RDM I'm just making do with it....was a little desperate to find a gym when I moved back to Charlotte, had a buddy who lifts here and its only $20 a month but this is not a growth environment. Not for me at least. Not any more.
Not to get all sentimental and such, but since I started throwing, my time lifting has become what it used to be, and that's a wonderful thing. Reading the training logs is also inspiring and motivational and informative. Glad I didnt wait until I was too old to get into this, but certainly wish it had been sooner. ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants? No Ma'am...hot steel balls!"

1/13/12 Isometric conditioning. 7 hours in the car driving to Florida. Happy Birfday to me. 1/14/12 Had a blast shagging for the Masters. The caber-off between Bill Gray and Buck Buchanan was fun to watch. Congrats to John Allen ftw. Fun times all day. North/South didn't fail to impress, even though the North won. 1/15/12 I got to play with the Bs. It was good to see old friends and meet some new ones. No PRs but it felt great to be out there trying to hang with 20 somethings and doing pretty well at it, considering. Got a good baseline of what I need to get to for MWC and to move to As. In a word; reps. Still, it's all good.Heres some video of a fat, hairy 40 something in a skirt if anyone wants to critique and offer suggestions.

Tim, thanks for all the help Saturday. I heard you had a great day Sunday, congrats. Hammer : arms need to stay long behind you, let your biceps brush your nose as they go by your face and lean back. Caber : carry caber belly button high and throw sooner. You take to long to plant and pull. This allows the caber to get to far in front of you. WFD : try releasing off the right foot. This allows the hips to stay in it longer. ------------- Remember Kay Cummings, Father of the Highland Games in the Southeast and my friend. Lets Go Run With The Big Dogs! |

When you come into the second turn, when the left foot lands keep the body weight on the right foot and turn the ankle out.

I only had video of those events. Besides, my sheaf doesnt look nearly as good as yours, who wants to see that.? If John is having a practice I'd love to come down for that. Last time I went he helped add 5 feet to my LWFD Im not going to compete much before MWC(that's what Im telling myself) so lots of practice and strength training are going to be my focus for the next 3 months. ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants?

01/23/12 The ankle bursitis wasnt so inflamed so I figured it was time to go pick some things up. Started off with front squats. This is a lift that I want to do more of, so in that vein I played around with it a bit. Bar x 10 x 2 95x 8 115x4 135x4 185x2 205x2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OIlv5w0BnI&feature=BFa&list=PLF413BC72D4BBA857&lf=plpp_video" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OIlv5w0BnI&feature=BFa&list=PLF413BC72D4BBA857&lf=plpp_video
225x2?! Yeah, that first rep DID suck. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHOPVKgXahY" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHOPVKgXahY
225x2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApqDp9yVyH0" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApqDp9yVyH0
Obviously this is a lift I need to devote some time to and remediate myself on proper form and don't worry about weight. Really like the way it hit my glutes, though I don't know if it should or not. Sumo style Deadlifts 135x8 135x7 185x6 225x4 315x9 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OX59B_JJqk&feature=BFa&list=PLF413BC72D4BBA857&lf=plpp_video" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OX59B_JJqk&feature=BFa&list=PLF413BC72D4BBA857&lf=plpp_video
315x10 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQi_06m1mok&feature=autoplay&list=PLF413BC72D4BBA857&lf=plpp_video&playnext=1" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQi_06m1mok&feature=autoplay&list=PLF413BC72D4BBA857&lf=plpp_video&playnext=1
The first set with 315 was exhausting, the second made me nauseous , so...win.cool down on the bike and the treadmill mental note to self, must do more cardio and increase stamina for the next month ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants?

I think I read somewhere that Bo Jackson's idea of a good workout was dragging a 300 pound deer out of the woods..... 1/28/12 After loading up and driving 7 hours from Charlotte to Engelhard, NC, I grabbed a 4hr nap. Woke at 3:00am Saturday. Drove another 1-1/2 miles to the waterfowl impoundment and unloaded the canoe, the decoys, the shotgun and the ammo box. Put on the neoprene waders... Dragged all of that 1/4 of a mile across grass to the canal, paddled 300 yards, set the decoys and waited for another hour or so until sunup. Endured mosquitoes and chilly dampness for another 5 hrs. Saw some black ducks and a teal or two, but no shot available...around 11am, shot a swan. Loaded the decoys and the swan, paddled back to the bank, drug the canoe and gear plus the 25 pound bird and 20 pounds of swampwater back to the car. Loaded up, drove back to the campsite, hung all my stuff up to dry and took a nap. Woke with cramps. Stretched, walked it out. Drove home.Quickest swan hunt ever. Happy to unofficially end hunting season on a high note. ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants? No Ma'am...hot steel balls!" Jerry Clower |

2/17-2/19 Spent the weekend swinging a bushaxe, some folks calls it a sling blade or a Kaiser blade, I call it a bush axe. Anyways, I swung that bush axe and cleared off some trees and saplings and whatnot back at the hunting grounds. Carried some bags of concrete and lumber and roofing material. Put a roof over my friends shed where we do blacksmithing. Mashed in some carapils and carafoam malts, refrigerated the extract to boil and pitch later this week. May ride the mtn bike this week....then Jacksonville this weekend. No lifting, too much ache and tightness. Foam roller and pressure point massages and stretching this week. ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants? No Ma'am...hot steel balls!" Jerry Clower |

2/23 Got back on the mtn bike for the first time in a long time. Not for just a little glide around the neighborhood, either. Did about 8 miles of trails. Wow. My cardio absolutely sucks. Legs had no problem whatsoever but I was sucking wind like a fish. Coulda been the extra 30 pounds of insulation.Having been out of trailriding for a while, I had slow response times and a clumsy feel, lucky I didn't eat dirt at any point.. The eye-body coordination is not there like it was way back. Going to do a little more of this, think it'll be good for the CNS and the heart/lungs. Springs coming anyway, need to shed the winter coat...and it's more funner than an elliptical. ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants? No Ma'am...hot steel balls!"

Trying to teach my younger two the joy of bikes and that type of thing and they have one of those little push scooter things with the tiny 5 inch wheels. I just grabbed that and started down the drive and almost got my health deductible out of the way early in the year. Slow response time and clumsy was understatement. I verbally instructed from there with pointing and sitting.

Myles, Use it or lose it, right? LOL I spent a few years trail-riding nearly everyday. Didn't ever compete or anything (just wasn't my thing)but had crazy endurance and I rode/ride because it's just damned FUN. I think that's important in any kind of sport or extracurricular. Now that I am back in the Charlotte area there are plenty of trail parks to go play at. When I was in Charleston it was...not boring, but certainly not very challenging when everything is flat. I am glad I got a good bike that can handle the extra me that I have acquired these past few years. If I can drop 20 lbs by Spring I should be good to go.I think mine is an '02.... http://spokesbikes.com/product/05specialized-rockhopper-comp-4039.htm" rel="nofollow - http://spokesbikes.com/product/05specialized-rockhopper-comp-4039.htm At the time it cost more than my car...heck, it costs more than my car now! ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants?

Thanks to all the Masters who tolerated me over the weekend in Jacksonville. I know I still got milk on my breath, but it was a pleasure and a privilege to be able to throw with you guys, despite my youth. Congrats to Rob Hatch (nWo ftw!) on taking home the win. ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants? No Ma'am...hot steel balls!" Jerry Clower |

I was hesitant to shave. Figured that with the baby face you guys would make me go throw with the Bs, or worse...take me to the info booth to see if they could locate the parents of a lost little boy. I had a blast throwing with you guys. Florida is always fun and the Masters just make it more funner! ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants? No Ma'am...hot steel balls!"

No lifting, no throwing. Nevertheless, I've been doing a lot of Spring garden/yard work and riding the bike. Still have beehives to move and prep for the spring bloom. Yesterday, after spending a couple of hours fighting with a tiller I figured what the hey, I been putting stones out of the garden, might as well work on some shot drills. So I did a few braemars, some 1/2 South Africans and a few fulls. Felt good. I think I may have needed the break just to reset the system. ------------- "What's the matter boy? you got ants in your pants? No Ma'am...hot steel balls!" Jerry Clower |
