I use a crazy straw as much as possible

Update: Here is a new web series that I am going to do. It involves multiple members of the football team. I hope you guys find it interesting because there are MANY more of these in the works/have been done already.


Long weekend. Had to work Friday and Saturday. Absolutely exhausted. Shit got real Saturday night. There were a few brawls going on at work and we had to handle a few assholes. Norman and I were pulling this guy out and he had his buddies all pulling him the other way. It was awkward as fuck cause I had him by the boot and belt and his pants were coming off. I don’t think they took us seriously at first because this is what we looked like



O well.

Had a nice end of the weekend. Went to a party for the swim team. It was to mark the end of their season so everyone was having a blast. Let’s just say some one found an axe in the back yard and the house is minus a tree now.

So fucking tired

If you guys have any video requests please feel free to say them in the comments. I am trying to do a few videos in the next week. Already have one planned to show you guys the bench set-up.

Good Toast

Update: Some one has searched “Pussy Squat” in the search function. I really am curious to the context of that lol.

Here is a recent Press video. It’s 245×3. Whenever you train for meets you don’t really Press much, but I have had time to Press lately since the surgery. I didn’t really Press until a few weeks ago cause my butt hurt. Trying to press 275 before the next meet.


I’ll update the post later cause I gotta go back to Ironworks so here is a picture of Bane


Here is a sweet glimpse of Normans new press. I call it the Norman Press. It really hits the delts and hips in a way that only the sexy latino heat can do. We only tried a few sets before the gym had to get flood insurance. Ya know, for all the bitches.

Mobbing is the bee’s knees

Mobbed the piss out of my shoulders last night. Had a mash party with my bestie whilst watching Van Helsing. Hugh Jackman is real fuckin jacked. Did some shoulder work and mashed my scap/traps. Had a great bench day earlier today. I feel like the solid sleep and mobbing the night before really did some good.

In other news had a great weekend. Partied with my bro and some friends. The night before we went out, this asshole got so drunk he literally couldn’t move anymore (I was working). I was convinced he was dead.



The following night we all looked good as fuck when we went out. Little to say that the rug jacket didn’t make it out alive



These were two randos me and my bro took a picture with. Didn’t know who they fuck they were or where this picture came from. My brother is on the left. He is a doctor.

My Buddies . . .

Update: This Mobb video is for Kincain

This here is Skyler. He is the Assitant Director of Strength and Conditioning here at Georgia Southern. He has been getting substantially stronger throughout the semester. As a former baseball player, pitcher I believe, he has been kicking some ass in the gym. He can also walk on his hands, which is way cooler than my gay dancing abilities.


Here is another buddy of mine, his name is Taylor.



This little bastard is strong as shit. he can probably pull more than you, weighing 160, than you at 200. Here is his 435×3


(If it’s sideways give it a second to change)

I got some strong friends. Stronger and funnier than yours.

“No time for fear, that comes later!”

My god . . .


The new batman series is without a doubt my favorite trilogy. I LOVE the villains. Bad guys have always had this allure to me. They get to put on these masks/face paint and be a totally different person. I can’t wait to see Bane in the new movie. I remember eating lunch with my dad after seeing The Dark Knight and he said to me “Dude, they have to put Bane in the next movie. There is no one else that would work.” The old bastard totally called it.

In other news. Work blows. Here is an example of my buddies and I livin it up working at a bar. They got me working 3 nights a week and I clean the bar during the day for extra cash. Very tiring.

Thats my buddy Zach. We venture to the hot tub/Sauna pretty frequently to loosen up and stretch to get rid of some DOMS. Training is well. I pulled for the first time on Tuesday and I can’t tell you how excited I am to lift heavy again. Sore as shit from M/T btw. Been eating more and trying to get my weight up as well. The long road to recovery is upon me and I can’t wait to hate myself all along the way. For now, enjoy my sweet ass in the pic above.

Gonna go see Chronicle this weekend. I hope it doesn’t fucking suck. It got an 85% on Rottentomatoes.com so I suppose its awesome. Rotten is a pretty legit site. It usually is on point with how I rate and like movies.

Questions?

The Grey

. . . next time you see said females AC you should take pics of them and post them here. You know so I may or may not masturbate to them.
–Stroup

I’ll give him credit for that one. Solid A+ humor.



Once more into the fray… Into the last good fight I’ll ever know… Live or die on this day… Live or die on this day…

That was a quote from the movie “The Grey”. If you haven’t seen it, then get your ass to the theatre and bring a box of sad tissues, not happy ones. My buddies and I went and watched it yesterday at the local cinema and we all about cried our fucking eyes out. Liam Neeson is such a good actor it’s fucking insane. His voice would make any ladies and or gay dudes pants drop. I had to pull mine up a few times. I consider this movie pretty awesome. Not many movies actually get me to get into the whole “Willing suspension of disbelief” anymore, but this one certainly had my attention the whole time. I got choked up several times throughout the movie and almost cried my eyes out when Liam Neeson delivered some of his dialogue involving his wife. We had to get ice-cream to cheer us up afterwards. Go see it.

In other news, I got my stitches out and have started to train regularly again. Tomorrow will be the first day I can deadlift again since the day before surgery. I was actually able to set-up for bench with an arch and my legs on the ground today. Felt gooood and slightly awkward. Can’t wait to fill out my clothes again and not feel like a total self-hating-douche-asshole that’s on suicide watch who wears a star wars mask while his friend plays Skyrim

Yolk

So I was in Ironworks last Tuesday and one of the coaches said I looked skinny with my new hair cut. Most likely due to the fact I havent been able to train cause of my surgery, so I started to do the neck machine. Ya know, forward, sides, and back. It was the first time I did the neck machine in like 4 years. I was on the tail end of my workout when the girls tennis team came in to start their workout. I was gonna finish mine with the neck machine. I already felt awkward doing it because I was shy about it. So I start. I notice one of the tennis girls is looking at me. In my head I said “God dammit”. She proceeds to say “Um WhaT Is ThAt GUy DoINg?!?!”

“THatS WeirD”

In my head again I was like FUCKING GOD DAMMIT. The whole tennis team proceeds to turn their heads and look at me. It was like vvvvwwwoooosh as all their little heads rotated towards me. The girl who was coaching them said thats the neck machine. I sat there as they all stared at me and I was like (real quietly) “Yeah, . . . its . . . the neck machine . . . ”

So anyways they start their workout and the GHD is right in front of the neck machine and some girls are near me. One girl says “LIke Why ARe YoU DoINg That?” “BIg NEcks On GUyS ARE GRosSE”

I had to refuse to say “Well it looks like we aren’t fucking then”

I gave her this real vague explanation on why I was doing them. I didnt wanna say, well coach Howard said I look skinny and now I am self conscious. Later on that night . . .

I was at work and its Dollar Daquiri night. Very Popular. I was doing cover at the door and I glance up and its two of the tennis girls. I hear them giggle. Again I say to myself God Dammit. I hear them say “IS ThAT ThE NECk GuY?!?!?!”

They proceed to giggle. I proceed to hate my life. I would def fuck the shit out of both of them though. Huge neck and all.

Couldn’t hate “According to Jim” any more than I hate myself

Update: New post cumming Thursday. A nice little story about me being awkward. Involves love, passion, women, and me saying God Dammit a lot.

I couldn’t think of a title for this and “According to Jim” just so happens to be on tv right in front of me. Jim Blushi is the un-funny member of that family.

Had a long fuckin week last week. Worked 3 nights and a few mid-days during the week. Made a good bit of money though. For anyone who doesn’t know, I Bounce at a bar here in Statesboro and my second job is cleaning that same bar and another one next to it during the day. It’s about 30+ hours a week depending on how late we get out at night. Very draining and very annoying. You really see how people are when they drink some loud mouth soup and are convinced that they are superman. No one ever fights fair (as in 1v1) and no one ACTUALLY fights. It’s always some pussy that blind-sides someone or some dick-hole running his mouth who isn’t gonna do anything about shit anyway. I deal with people who run their mouth all night. My response to them is “If you wanna fight’em tell his ass to come outside into the parking lot and let’s fucking do this”. They never do it because that would mean that they didn’t have ten of their friends to fight the guy for him. Sigh. Training makes everything alright though. Stress free with just about everything else.

This is a glimpse of what my nightlife is. It was taken before xmas break. I do cover at the door.



That’s my buddy Evan. He is about 6 foot 265. A rather large man.

In other news it was my G/F’s b-day two days ago. She turned 24 and she couldn’t be any prettier. Here is a pic of here that I took when she came to visit. She was eating cake and I told her to smile. Zoomed in all the way and took a bunch of pictures.

Let’s talk about my ass

Seriously,

For anyone that consistently checks, my ass is doing just fine. The swelling is going down and the incision has been scabbing over for the past few days. It still looks great in skinny jeans. I can sit just about normal now and I have been going back to the gym. Benched 355×1 with my legs on the bench and no belt. Wasn’t that hard, but it was awkward. Actually squatted Saturday too. Did 135x5x3. The stitches didn’t bother me at all. They are worse if I lean over to pick something up.

Glad to be able to lift again and glad to be back at school with my buddies

Speaking of buddies . . .



This here is Zach. He is a lineman here at Georgia Southern and he looks fucking awesome in that pic. I had to share. Zach is real fuckin funny and his sense of humor is real awkward, I like it. He looks like Burgess Meredith as the penguin, to me.
