But imagine how quickly you'll lose weight once your corpse starts to decompose. Most effective pill EVAR.

Well I suppose at least the worms would get a dam good meal out of me.

They would soon loose their appetite, stop eating and die, this would then be transferred to birds.....and so forth.

Rip, human race.

Worms making all kinds of gainz, welcome our new wriggly overlords.

I'm probably more amused by this than I should be:

The reps at the water fountain were great! I hope she recognised him and just didn't say anything or else she's gullible enough to do anything!

I'm a bit surprised how genuinely funny he was tbh, cracked up at the water fountain reps.

From what I've seen when he's done interviews and things is just just a genuinely funny guy and all round legend.

If you've ready his autobiography, he is just a legend - end of!

I'm pretty sure I read the whole thing in an austrian accent in my head

Indie · 23 Jan 2014 at 10:58

I don't think I've ever met a person that dislikes him in any way, shape or form!

Yes! Especially when he says "bull****"!

I dropped my bench press on my face today. Someone ran over to rescue me so was quite embarrassing and now got a big scrape on my cheek.

Doing sl5x5, feel like a de-load but sticking strictly to the routine I need to fail again. In fairness, it was the last rep of 5x5 so better than Monday.

Did you try to rack it without your arms locked or something?

davestar_delux · 24 Jan 2014 at 18:48

I'm not sure what I did... didn't have clips on so one side went and then...

Oh, your own fault then. Put the bloody clips on. Grinds my gears.

icecold · 24 Jan 2014 at 21:00

Were you wearing gloves? Why was the bar over your face?

brb I never bench with clips

Delvis · 24 Jan 2014 at 21:09

Phaggot.
My point was chep gyms (like mine) have weights that literally slip off if you breath on them without clips, id rather not risk it....especially as my movements are about as symetrical as a one legged cat with toast on its face.

davestar_delux · 24 Jan 2014 at 23:31

Yeah lessons learned, I clip on the OHP because I have a few plates on.

But I'm pretty light on bench at the moment so had not seen the need for clips so far I guess. It's not something that has really been mentioned to do until you screw up.

I only posted as I thought it might entertain some people.

Delvis · 25 Jan 2014 at 08:24

Oh it did

We need pics though...
