Now when Job’s three friends heard of all these troubles that had come upon him, each of them set out... to go and console and comfort him... They sat with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his suffering was very great. -Job 2:11-13. In my years as a funeral director, and in my time as a chaplain, I saw people avoid the grief of others because they did not know what to say. We do not have to say anything. Presence speaks volumes, and can mean more than any platitude. In fact, these guys did just fine until they opened their mouths.

Strongman grip training with new axel bar. Reallt working Day of the Deads differently as my whole workout has something for every lifter. Conventional deads for power and strength, axel for strongman, and finished with a superset of Snatch grip deads w/ uprights rows. Good times had by me.

Just tried Shaun T's Insanity Cardio (what am I, 15 yrs too late?). Yeah, didn't even make it to 2nd full round of Heismans. New goal, since I hate cardio!

25 miles, 103 degrees outside....aggghhh. I miss the air conditioned gym!

Balance for me means that Monday through Friday it’s strict eating and counting of macros. But Saturday and Sunday all I do is eat healthy because there is no way I want to spend all day cooking a bunch of separate meals since I am cooking for me and the kids. It also means that once in a while (like today) I eat M ‘n’ M’s and binge play World of Warcraft........ 😜

Is it possible to have a weak workout after a strong leg day?! Chest and Back this morning ... Not so strong! No PRs ... Just pushed through. Trying to get some definition ... Just gotta work on my diet a little better. After my workout, I did a set of 22s for Vets and those who suffer from depression. A poignant 22, a long time friend reported that a gym friend of his had taken his life this week. Ya know ... It's hard to detect when someone's in pain. But with consistent messaging and compassion, I can only hope that if you're in pain, please speak up. We want you around for a long time.🙏 Suicide Prevention Hotline (800) 273-8255 Now GO WASH YOUR HANDS! 🧽🖐️🖐️🖐️🖐️🖐️🖐️ GET A MASK! 😷😷😷 DON'T BE STUPID.... CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELF ...
