wheres the fitness thread
Started drinking again. Screwed up two opportunities to hook up with the same person on two separate occasions (because I'm not as proactive about that kind of thing when I'm drunk...I just flirt for waaaaaaaaaay too long). The experience kind of re-introduced me to what it's like to float around social circles though, and it was fun.
I don't want to drink that often because I've dedicated so much time to becoming a decent powerlifter, so I'm not going to.
Speaking of powerlifting, my shoulder has been acting up a bit so I narrowed my bench grip width by a lot; two years of benching wide has taught me to keep my elbows way in, so I don't have the form problems that I used to have with narrower-width bench pressing. I put up (215-225)x(2-3) for 8 sets today and felt pretty good. I've always been weak on the bench and it's kind of embarrassing that it's taken me two years to put up 2 plates for reps, but it's a start. My goal is 300 before 2015.
I've also been trying to lose weight (From 182lbs)--I haven't lost any in the past few weeks, but I'm starting to look better, so I guess I've been gaining muscle.
