Re: RIGHT OF PASSAGE II
Some folks like to post up their meals they eat in their journals for different reasons so I figure I would do the same as I have done off and on in the past.
I doubt very seriously you will see this everyday thing from me cos I really don't see the point, but I will post up a meal or 2 from time to time.
I generally eat clean and good most days, but I'm human and I will eat what I want and when I want.
Most times I eat 5-7 meals a day.
If I miss a meal of don't get to eat as much in a meal as I want to as compared to others eating habits I really don't care and I won't lose any sleep over it.
So; with that being said my meal for the day for this past Saturday evening was:
1- grilled 22oz proterhouse steak (cooked medium rare)
1- 4qt bowl of fresh leafy rabbit food
1- medium sweet potato with light cinnamon only
2- well made margaritas (no salt)
1- 16oz half and half sweet tea
This was my I really don't give a rat's ass Saturday evening meal in a way.
Ever get tired of people playing you (and you know they are)?
Yep, that's me.
Ever get tired of different people lying to you (and you know they are)?
Yep, that's me.
Ever get tired of different people ignoring you (and you know they are)?
Yep, that's me.
Ever get tired of different people thinking they're so much better than you (when they're really no better than you are)?
Yep, that's me.
I really don't care.
Talk to me or not. Leave the way you came.
I got other things I need to do if you have no time for me.
Pissed? No, just indifferent to some things is all.

Re: RIGHT OF PASSAGE II
Meal of the day for me today (Saturday 9 Nov 13) is a 3 quart mixing bowl over half full of Lucky Charms and skim milk.
Oh man that was some good stuff right there!
What is that I hear through my pc?
All the bodybuilders mouths dropping open wishing they had a bowl too and saying out loud, "No wonder you powerlifters are fat!"
Well, I'll have you know I'm a powerlifter trapped in a bodybuilder's body. So there, lol.

I dunno why I even do these or b/b for that matter.
Even though I've been known to throw some weight around on the 2 exercises at times.
I just don't seem to get anything from them not matter which style of form I use.
It's just the point of variety for my back that I do these.
Chins, pulldowns and low rows do it more for me.

16 minutes
Target Stretch:
about 20 minutes
Comments:
Solo.
Still a good training day.
I almost had an all raw deadlift day but it's all good.
The primary exercise was 100% raw and I'm good with that.
