Some running this morning and over the weekend. Running without the weight vest does indeed feel like cheating at this point, but it does feel nice to get some distance in without having to slow down to a brisk walk constantly. Got the rest of the photoshoot pictures and the backshot that became my newest profile pic is an all-timer. I guess those Seal Rows, pull downs and Meadows' Rows ended up paying off, and shrugs too, I guess? Not quite as happy with these overall, compared to last year, but the couple of gems in there make up for it. Also, this does prove that going on a serious bulk and constantly trying to go heavy with most moves and significantly cutting down the reps for the most part is the way to go, going forward as well. For the next couple of weeks, it will just be maintenance and recovery and refeed and trying to mentally prepare for the next 12 month cycle of this grind.

And if you want to make us proud, thou shalt suck that teet until the very last fucking drop and we will cheer and salute your ass!

When Toni Storm yelled "Eat Shit, Bitch!" on two different occasions to Mercedes during the last face to face, it summed up my sentiment very accurately! If this goes the way I assume it will, I am going to be bummed out, although I must admit Mercedes' belt collection is starting to be super impressive, I am not going to dispute that for a second!

@Technico Support "OnlyFins" I see you already have an account, but yes, that's the one!

@DreamBroken My man, I just put up my training montage video on the general wrestling talk thread and it features The Man Who Made a Monster by Dance with the Dead and since you are pretty much the only dude who knows the band, I just wanted to give you a heads up, if you want to check it out! I'm on summer holiday now, so I can finally catch up on TNA as well!

If I already got one veiled request here, there must be some dudes out there ready to pay for it. Chicks, not so much...

So you should be pretty F'n jacked at this point, because that is a huge cut! The weather here in Finland has been cold as fuck for June/July, especially compared to last May//July which was awesome. The problem is that it has also rained a whole lot, so it has ruined more than a few cardios for me, but I still made the F'n cut this year, too! Anyway, keep up the awesome work, those are some badass numbers as far as losing pounds is concerned!

@Technico Support Where is your weight at currently? Do you feel like the shed pounds have improved your cardio further? I mean I remember you telling that your cardio has always been on a good level despite being a big guy! I ran without the weight vest last weekend and it felt like cheating !

One of my oldest friends is a fan, too! I mean he is a fan of hundreds of bands, just like you and me, but he's the only one who has mentioned Mortician to me before. He was praising them, if I recall correctly. Definitely not hating on them, that's for sure!

I'm only at Fyter Fest so far and was watching Thekla's entrance thinking "Damn, she should really team up with Lady Frost... I wonder who she's going up aga...HOLY SHIT!!!" Sadly, too much of a squash, but I'm sure these two would have a better, more competitive match in them for sure! Casually starting the Summer Blockbuster with Ospreay vs Swerve 2! This ought to be nice... yeah, but I called the 30-minute draw! Okada showing respect to Kenny, only to blindside the shit out of him was a dick move! While I think Bowens' gimmick is very cheesily tacked on (go with one or the other) I think his music is awesome and him going against all these great workers who are total douches (Prickochet, Okada and Fletcher) is working pretty well. Mortos vs Bandido is a dream match that I have been waiting for a good while now! Me and Bandido currently share a physique, just look at us!

All In just purchased via Triller TV, there was some discount going on, so the price was only 17e to begin with and with 2e worth of Google Play credits, it ended up costing 15e, which is a steal if there ever was one! I'm so far behind the shows at the moment that I have no real idea of the card, but I already know that it will be worth THAT price, even with Mox in the main event.

That wasn't the song I was using, but I did make a very squat based video for my wife. Obviously, that one is not going on YouTube. We did joke that If I'm desperate enough for money in the near future, another kind of account isn't out of the question, however.

I think I'm going to have to consider this at least pro wrestling adjacent for the first time, so I post this here and not the fitness thread, but: Here's me lifting things and putting them back down to the tune The Outrunners' most "famous" theme, The Man Who Made a Monster by Dance with the Dead! https://youtu.be/LQ_cfu_LqqM And I'm pretty sure that is going to be the only wrestling theme I will make a video of, but we'll see?

The grueling photoshoot is done, with some crazy shots in there, but I'm afraid there is way less usable (possible) profile pics in the lot, but it did have a couple double bicep shots from the back that almost made my head explode! So, money well spent.

And I will take that as a huge compliment, whether it is intended as such or not! I salute you!
