  1. 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.
  2. And I will take that as a huge compliment, whether it is intended as such or not! I salute you!
  3. Took this year's first photo of the cut today, after a 55-minute jog/stairs, sauna and 90 minute pump workout outside . I will probably go back to the professional photos for my profile pic, but I put this up, so you can see it's business as usual, even at almost 48 years old!
  4. The PPV was amazing, but that main event was the reason why work out, why I listen to music and why I fucking drink! That was all the shit even worth going through this life at this point! The best things! The guy I wanted to win lost, and I was fine with that because the other guy had reasons too! And I'm not the guy who will save the day, but I can be the guy whose sacrifice will help turn the tide. This is why I still watch wrestling and even if I hate watching it sober, I still do, sometimes, so that the times I watch it the way it was meant to be watched, actually means something! Thanks and if you don't like Hangman or Ospreay, please stop watching wrestling, you are not needed here!
  5. This is from the time I went full Trapbar, even though I know you should never go full Trapbar ! https://youtu.be/6WIHwHstS_E?si=oxPJsK97rpisdWqO I ended up doing bigger and better lifts here and there after this, too, but it remains a really good session!
  6. Less than 6 feet is plenty! Falling 3 feet backwards would probably do damage I would prefer not to even think about!
  7. Got under 185 for a spell yesterday after a 90 minute walk after waking up. That was right back up this morning, but I'll be damned if I'm not nearly as cut as I used to be at below 180. Big if true, still not sure. 1 hour cardio this morning as well along with slow walking and biking during the day. On the other hand, today I have consumed literally thousands of extra calories on refeed. Was looking pretty jacked even with no pump whatsoever, which is an encouraging sign at least. By next week it will be close to a month and a half without any alcohol, but Finnish Midsummer will put a swift end to that. Even with that, this has been the driest I think I've ever been during the diet. There has always been a couple of exception weekends along with Midsummer, this time, none of that business. There was a Rock/Metal Festival over here just a few kilometers away from me (again) this weekend, but this year I chose not to go. Way easier not to get tempted just staying at home (eating pizza and ice cream, however)!
  8. Unfortunately, alcohol is a macro and a shitty one at that. I guess it's like carbs and fats put together without any of the benefits of either one, just the calories. I have read that since your digestive system cannot actually use the alcohol's calories in their original form, they need to processed in the liver and turned into fat and the only way to avoid this, is to cut down on the intake. I have definitely cut down on the times of consuming alcohol for the past 5-6 years, if not the units when actually getting my drinking on, but that has reduced the overall consumption very significantly. I'm happy about that but also miserable. That being said, if anyone wants to lose weight and alcohol is still part of your diet, cutting it back (or out) will likely have a huge positive impact, if you can do it without resorting to a constant sugar rush or caffeine high!
  9. The diet is chugging along and I'm progressing slowly but surely. It seems to be very different this year, though. I started from such a high weight (for me) that it seems like peaking too early is definitely off the table this year. That's of course great, but it also keeps the pressure on me until the very end. I have booked a photoshoot for July 2nd and I will try to keep the cut going until the 7th which is when my summer holiday starts. I have had three off weekends at this point, one of which was rather tame and all of which have included some cardio and no alcohol. Yet, my weight is around 183 lbs, whereas it has usually been 176 and under by this point. Granted, I have done way less cardio compared to two previous years (at least, maybe more) but I have had the weight vest at full (well half, but as far as I can have it full) capacity from the word go, unlike last year. Now, I would like to imagine that some of this stubborn weight is actually some newly aquired lean mass from the bulk/strength season that I put absolutely everything I had into, but I can't tell for sure. Nothing seems that much bigger, but on the other hand I don't think I look any less cut than I usually look around 176, but again, I'm not sure. Strength levels have now started to go down, but I was still doing reasonably impressive stuff as late as couple of weeks ago and they haven't exactly crashed yet. I have been doing some pretty insane calorie cutting during these weeks, so it's pretty surprising that they haven't, actually. My secret weapons this year, compared to previous ones have been pineapple and beets. Everything else from previous years, I have kept. Well, I haven't had to need to go get the Nick's low calorie ice cream yet, but that would definitely be on the menu, if needed. Now I'm fixing to leave for the night shift and gym before that, obviously. Last night, I did 3 different bench pyramids (two inclines and regular) weights weren't heavy and the sets weren't particularly long, but it was 24 sets overall, if I counted correctly. That was a decent chest pump for a change!
  10. I guess it pays to complain here, because Triller TV got around to putting the Double or Nothing up for purchase a second ago, nicely just a day after my triple Google points offer expired. But hey, I'm on board for this one, as well!
  11. I have been checking Triller TV app for updates constantly for a while now and there's still nothing about Double or Nothing becoming available to purchase. There has been no notification about discontinuation of AEW PPV's on Triller TV (for specific countries, or whatever) or anything like that. I'm baffled. Also, there's also MAX in our household at the moment. There's no AEW in sight. That of course can be a Europe thing, but these kinds of things really irk me, especially since WWE and NXT are showing up on Netflix just fine. This sucks even more now that for once, there's a good match on tap at an AEW PPV, in Ospreay vs Hangman! I was totally ready to pay for that particular view. The lack of information is the worst part. That is not on AEW, obviously, but on Triller TV or Fite, specifically.
  12. Pope praying after meeting Vance: "I'm tired Boss, I'm so tired!"
  13. I love her and looking forward to Simple Favor 2!
  14. Everyone needs more Jeremiah Kane in their lives, I know I do! https://youtu.be/kJ2krGckNbY
  15. The only thing that I can recall is him dating and dumping a bunch of women from WWE and not be willing to marry them or have children ever, as well as doing a bunch of underhanded stuff with coworkers (JTG and the not Matt Cardona of Edgeheads come to mind), but I'm not sure if that makes him any more sociopathic than your average WWE worker, so maybe others can help you out with this one?
  16. And I don't really know much about those two bands but certainly know enough to get that this was fucking legendary! Bring the firehose!
  17. Yeah, that did look like "Get a fucking grip before there's a lawsuit"-moment. Luckily it hit a member of the roster instead of member of the audience if it had to hit anyone. But yeah, if you toss a chair with such force, you had better aim low, so things like that are avoided.
  18. Yeah, a hell of an episode of Collision as well! Death Riders being sore losers at the beginning was something. Later on, people reminded them about it with a chant. Good. I guess that's a no on Elite Riders, then? Even better. Kevin Knight with big win after getting his ass kicked a lot by Archer. Megan Bayne looking very dominant, but at least the opponents knew the only shot they had was to attack immediately, and together. That was a good 2 seconds for them, after that, oh well... RUSH and company squashed people, too. Hah, Don Callis family looks completely different than last month, but he sure doesn't mess about when it comes to replacing members. Well, Trent is a return, not a replacement, but Callis seems to bounce back from adversity quite well. A lot like a cockroach. The Adam Cole open was great in a couple of ways. First, it was Claudio instead of Yuta, so it was immediately a bigger threat and with the injury history of Cole you felt like he is in immense jeopardy and the title could change hands right here! Cole surviving with a counter pinning combination was good, and rest of his crew coming in to protect him right afterwards was even better touch. Tony reading FTR's letter was good, if it leads to Nigel getting in the ring again, even better! Nick Wayne wins the ROH tv title! Match was awesome and the crowds awesome chants at Nick made a high-brow humor enthusiast like myself all fuzzy inside! Wayne flipping the crowd off after the win was very much deserved, but great time was had by all. Main event was very solid, crazy triple double suplex by Statlander and Toni Storm showing up here meant she will show up to every match that involves Owen participants still in the running, not just Mercedes (although she was there, too, yes). We'll know for sure during or after Hayter v Stat! Mini Mone making appearance until getting carelessly tossed (kicked) aside by Julia the Teenage Witch was another plus. Pricochet's bald, y'all! Just in case the glasses fooled you, or something? This leading to Knight and Speedball vs Bucks was a twist I didn't see coming. Show was a blast, yes.
  19. Sure, and it may or may not very much say that I don't really listen to NIN, in general. But I figured that pointing out that my CD library is missing practically everything that is considered their (his) essential listening would have been enough of a clue, so I wouldn't have to point that out. But since I like music, there usually is at least something from a worthwhile artist's discography in my past or present music library (excluding maybe 3 million bands, or thereabouts).
  20. Oh, but that match will happen eventually, like that Bryan Danielson vs Darby Allin match that was a classic and well worth the wait of the initial bait and switch! ... ... ... No, wait, let me just check... ... ... Well, fuck! Never mind.
  21. Yeah, Zero is pretty much the only SP song I would go out my way to listen to and I like it a lot. Also, it's a good thing that Pretty Hate Machine came out in '89, then. From that, I only loop Head Like a Hole and sometimes Terrible Lie slips in. After that, I only have With Teeth and Year Zero by NIN, but it's not like I listen to those, either.
  22. wHy CaN't dYNAmiTe aLWays bE LiKe tHiS?!? All you had to do was: to have a women's dream match with 3+ years of megapush between the participants. The most surprising and beyond expectations Wild Card in the Owen-tournament history having an awesome match with a main eventer. A tag team title match that gave us a consolation prize for missing out on Hurt Syndicate vs Murder Machines plus MJF scheming to get into HB again. A rematch of a PPV classic that was different from the first one but just as, if not even more crazy. Main event with HOOK replaced by Hobbs, Young Bucks getting stomped by Swerve, Death Riders losing a title and Jon Moxley choked TFO! It's not rocket science, folks!
  23. Did a Trapbar single rep off the floor with 610 lbs (or 277kg) today. Was it late last year when I said I'd like to get 600 lbs off the floor before new year, or something like that. Well, I'm 10lbs past that goal right now, with a couple of weeks to go before the summer cut begins once more!
  24. My condolences to you and your family. Obviously, there's never a good time for something like this to happen, but losing someone out of the blue like that certainly leaves you shocked and even numb, sometimes. Sorry for your loss.
  25. To-MAY-to, To-MAA-to, or something like that! Or maybe The Office "It's the same picture"-meme would be applicable here! But to be serious, the fact that disgusting the regular folk being something that resonates with incels may be a shitty feature instead of an unfortunate bug, although it could also be a shitty bug instead of an unfortunate feature, not really sure?
