    Finally got a decent run in after so many weeks of feeling like crap. Been walking a lot to keep my legs strong. Weight training really takes a lot out of me right now as Im still recovering. I can't wait to feel great again. Make Brett Great Again.

    MBGA! I hope you continue to have a quick and full recovery. However, the bowhunter part of me can't help but read MBGA as Montana Black Gold Ascent, the sight I have on my bow. :lol:

    237 flights of stairs, dips, chest flies, flat bench, skull crushers and leg lifts. Debating if I want to ruck in the morning or get the boat out and go fishing. All depends on how windy it's going to be.

    Got in a great ride last night. Although not a fast ride, definitely hard. Did a lot more climbing and still had some power left in my legs when i finished. Just ran out of daylight. I'm hurting pretty bad today. Think it's time to do 2 rides a week.

    I tried to see what my limit on food intake was on this ride. I burned close to 2200 calories. I was able to get down 1700 during the ride. The stomach felt great for the whole ride, but I got a gut bomb when i got home. Only lasted an hour, though. Just a lot of bloating. Screenshot_20250521_093809_Strava.jpg

    Incline press, hypers, flys, skull crushers, straight bar push downs, speed bag, 30 mins on spin bike.
    Had a cheat meal of pizza last night. Today’s work out was a high rep range and to failure. Pump was ridiculous.

    Got out on my normal Tuesday evening ride. Went good and feeling stronger with every ride. It got cut short because of rain. It was a slow rain and i rode for the last hour in it. But the trails were getting slippery and i dont want to push it and risk a wreck. Plus it got dark quick. Screenshot_20250528_100021_Strava.jpg

    Today I hit it again.

    1.5 mile walk
    70 squats
    50 pushups
    25 presses

    I feel great, cut all process foods out. Eating more fruits and meat. I am also taking Shilajit, Sea Moss and Ashwaganha.

    For Drinks I am drinking mainly water, I also drink Celsius with the no caffeine with my water.

    I was not sure but I think I saw a stomach muscle, it's been awhile!! My Tennis Elbow is healed and I can start lifting and playing golf again.!!

    Took it easy this week until today. On Monday I turn 42, so I continued my tradition of max deadlift testing on the Friday closest to my birthday with the goal of 10lbs for every year I have been alive. I maxed out at 425lbs, almost got 435lbs. The body was willing but the grip was shot by the time I got there.

    135/3, 225/2, 315/1, 365/1, 405/1, 425/1
    Pull Ups 4 x 5 @BW
