  1. First full day of the vacation and we walked 4 kilometers up a steep hill zigzagging to a lighthouse up top. Then to the top of the lighthouse for pictures. Then jogging most of the way down and then running back to our apartment. Also, our apartment is on the 5th floor, so that's 87 steps each time we go up or down. The pizza, pasta and the pastries have been great so far, but I should get some decent activity going while over here as well. It's very good to get some cardio on my feet as well. Biking is one thing, but you won't have great running cardio just by riding a bike.
  2. I said the Triller TV 3 PPV bundle was 49.99e, in fact that was dollars. The purchase price for me was 59.99e, but it is done now, in any case. Not much of an offer, but at least I'll be set until summer.
  3. This combined with the fact that once he's up there he may decide to skateboard back down has me worried. So, if there's only 50% chance he won't JUMP to begin with... damn!
  4. If Okada beating Eddie indeed leads to a big match with PAC at Dynasty, then I'm all for it. That way I get to see both of those matches. I don't like the idea of breaking up the Continental Triple Crown so quickly, though. It must be weird for AEW to catch a lightning in a bottle with Swerve and still have Ospreay and Okada out there waiting. Hangman and MJF will be back at some point, Moxley and Bryan (and Jay White, now too) are still alive and Samoa Joe is the champion during all of this. Even with some guys leaving and others injured, that's still quite the crop of credible top talent to go after the World title. And when they aren't challenging for the belt, the matches against one another will still be amazing. Of course, with the number of PPV's constantly increasing, the need for marquee matches on tap increases as well. Similar situation is developing on the Women's roster as well. There would be plenty of talent to go around if they were given more time. AEW won't run out of big one on one Women's world title matches any time soon, given their pace.
  5. 4 workouts this week, I'll edit the long version in later, but I just need to get it out that an hour or so ago I cleared 881,5 (or 400kg) on Trapbar off the full blocks and also 849 with shoes on. That was the big one, I'll get to the rest of it tomorrow! Editing in: Monday was the usual incline dumbell bench and hammer curls with 88's. Tried the first set with the bench straight up, but due to something going wrong the weights came back down and I banged up my left quad with one of them. Just a bruise, though. Said fuck this, and opted for two notches down and did 4 sets 11, 10 ,9 and 8. Hammer curls, standing double dumbell curls, dumbell chest flies on the floor and a few sets of resistance band lat pull downs. Tuesday was regular bench and seal row pyramids, although with less sets than last week on both. Bench went from 153 to 285 and back down to 153 (I did two sets with 285, five "reps" in total, with only one clean rep), but the 252 set was 10 reps with 8 good ones and only the last rep was shit, so that's fine. Seal Row went from 220 to 352,5 and back down to 220. Obviously, the 352,5 set was quarter reps at best, but I tried to stop the momentum and hold the weight up before slowly letting it back down. The 330 set went surprisingly well before that, at least in the early reps. Wednesday I had shorter time than usual, so I dedicated it to all kinds of ab work. I have slacked off in that department recently. Thursday was indeed Trapbar. Discovered a wonderful synth/shredwave band called Terror Syndrome and listened to it throughout. It seemed to work. Only small deficit and floor-level for warm-ups this time. Found 2 metal rods in the scrap and was able to use them to add another 5,5 lbs to the bar. So, started with 5x254,5 and 5x364,5 off the floor. Then 459 off a smaller deficit without gloves or Versas. Then with gloves and Versas, 536 off the floor. Then, off the blocks 2x565, 2x684, 2x778,5, 1x881,5 (no shoes), 1x849 (shoes on), 3, 2 and 2x754, 5x660 and with a slight rest-pause 12x565. No time for shrugs this time. Next week, we're off to a trip to Italy. I will pack my running gear and resistance band with me, but the steady diet of pizza, pasta and wine will probably do a number on my weight, and that number is north of 200, most likely.
  6. Triller TV is offering a PPV bundle (Dynasty, Double or Nothing and Forbidden Door) for 49.99e. I may as well take them up on that when the next payday comes up.
  7. Well, I do see Willow taking this one and indeed making Statlander question her life choices, but I don't think she will get to squash Riho. Just not giving her an opportunity to surprise Willow would show that Willow has her head in the game, whereas Statlander doesn't. And Stooley will be right there to capitalize on it!
  8. Last week's Collison had many nice things, but I will sum it up in one word: PAC!!!!! Thanks.
  9. I think @The Natural still says a phrase every now and again that is still filtered to my knowledge.
  10. 4 workouts in 4 workdays this week. Started the week with 4 sets of incline dumbell bench with 88's at the conventional 45 degree angle. I believe all sets were 10+ reps due to larger than usual incline. 4 sets of hammer curls as well. Also standing double dumbell bicep curls with 53's, 48,5's, 44's and 39,5's, 6-8 rep range. Tuesday was a Seal-Row pyramid from 154 to 319 and back to 154, with 11 sets in total. Until 264, I went without Versas and after that, with them. I think this pyramid worked better than the 5 sets with 264 I did the last time. This included 7 sets with 264 or more and even the heaviest sets felt better than the 264's last time. At the very end I also did a set of 5 barbell overhead press with 154. Good reps, too. I think that was a record. Wednesday I went for a regular bench pyramid, from 164 to 280 to 154, with reps of 5, 3 and 7. 5's on the way up until 264, then 3's with 269, 275, 280, 275, 264 and 252, then 7's back down to 154. 15 sets in total. Between the heaviest sets I also did about 5 sets of resistance band lat pull-downs. Thursday was Trapbar. Started with actual deficit lifts this time. Standing on 2 blocks, I did 5x260, 3x370 and 1x465 without Versas. That took it out of me and no more deficit after that. I did do 2x509 off the floor before moving on to blocks. Then 2x570,5 off the half blocks, and 1x665 and 2x784 off full blocks. Shoes off 1x873,5 and 1x843,5 then 2, 3, 4 and 3x749 with the last set, shoes back on. Shrugs with 553 (only 5 reps, but still), 469, 370 and 260. Pretty good stuff this week. Weight still around 198 or slightly above 200 lbs. I guess I should try and cut back on the calories to get around 185 or something before the actual cut begins again in a couple of months. No problems otherwise, but abs are a long way off from where they should be.
  11. Well, I do see where you are coming from with that and of course, it didn't help that he did that to his best friend and stable mate, when stuff like that would probably be best reserved for someone who took a dump on your kitten and made you watch. But maybe this is again Ospreay's character being dumb as rocks and he doesn't know any better. He'll just hit anything on anyone, since that's how he's wired?
  12. A very fun show. The main event was very my kind of wrestling! A casual avalanche poison rana! Fuck yeah! Young Bucks were on fire! I thought they would fine Hangman something like 250 bucks, but they suspended him from "the Elite" and acted like it was from AEW. Firing Omega from "The Elite" as well. I guess they want to be the big stars in the group, and then welcome Okada into the fold. Smart move, there! I also missed the "We're NOT sorry, we hate you!" to Sting the first time. That was awesome! Okada-Eddie and Bryan-Ospreay should both be a bunch of fun. Darby acknowledged that he may not return alive from Everest. Please do NOT take the skateboard with you! That was a joke, not a suggestion!
  13. Missed it by a couple of hours, but very happy birthday to @The Natural from Finland, as well! Keep being awesome!
  14. Granted, it was mostly due to Baltimora and the idea of a Luchasaurus that made Jungle Boy one of my biggest favorites in all of AEW, but I was definitely aboard that (jurassic) express! Once he turned, I pretty much hated him as much as I used to like him as a face.
