Hmm... that sets my gimmick senses tingling.
I can see it being useful for physio, but not for serious strength training.

That will cause him to develop his core so I think it can be useful.
That's the thing...if you look back at the workout, its anything but serious strength training. Kenyon's much better off kicking ass with SS
To me, the best time is when the noob gains stop and you start focusing on refining the weak muscle groups from a strength and aesthetic standpoint.
Yeah, he was saying this was what we were doing for the time being to give me a good platform to start more serious strength training. But, I feel pretty good about my core. It of course could be better, but between horizontal activity, running, horses, and maintaining 5 acres, it's doing okay.

The lactose free bit is what has me interested still in the face of the price. I tried to switch to almond and soy milk years ago but couldn't do it. I'm only mildly lactose intolerant so I went back but have to be careful about how much I take in.
If it's even close to regular milk in taste, I'll consider it a huge win.
Final fight only taught you one thing?

I've been doing mainly cable external and internal rotations from the side and also in the upright hand position. I also bought a couple of resistance bands that I use at home for the same movements. I just bang out a few light sets several times a week to warm up my shoulders and rotator cuffs and maybe those have helped me too.

There are better ways of directly targeting your core than balance ball assisted exercises.
Sadly that's what a lot of people will focus on, and assume that they'll be fine using them as long as they stick to the "dosage".

Squats. Lots and lots of squats.
I do shoulder dislocations and band pull aparts every day and its really helped keep my rotator cuffs strong.
Isn't that the drug that will make you burn up from the inside if you consume it more than a week? Awful way to go.

Correct. It's a fat burning drug that has become popular amongst younger people.
People don't want to diet properly to lose fat.

Great lift man. Dat bar bend...

Ah frick this is a crazy injury.
I get a deep tissue massage yesterday then crush a raquet ball on my lats using my body weight to massage the area. Everything feels better.
Go to lift today and can't do anything with my left side.
Can't do pullups.
Barely can do bench.
Even barbell curls are completely wonky with my left side going numb.
Only thing I can think is I pinched a nerve.
Damnit right before summer cutting too.

A depressing read for those of us intent on lifting clean: http://www.bodyrecomposition.com/muscle-gain/anabolic-steroids-muscle-growth.html/
It's based on old studies / old news, but it's still an interesting read.
(Short version: You can build more muscle with low dose testosterone and no training than you can with training and no drugs.)

So, yeah, weighed in at 232 but my beefaroni fueled powers of recovery are gone. Completely beat to shit.
Farmer walks, speed work. Gonna take a lot to make these quicker, but that's what strongman is for.
On video in order 222x 75 ft in 14,15 and 16 seconds. 172 both in 12.
Full log: 82x150ft, (all rest to 75 ft) 172x2, 222x4, 172x2.

I still love that you can walk around carrying things that I couldn't even get off the floor. 
Dude you are fucking MOTORING with that thing. The 222s don't even look that hard for you anymore.
Hell yeah, Sean. What an unbelievable transformation from you back in the day.

Awesome Lift.
Did a double take because I think I recognise you too from way back at QM uni
bro......
I assumed it was two people having locker room sex. Is that not it?
My deadlift lockout really sucks, also I think my hamstrings are lagging a lot.
aw man sorry to hear

Here's me for a weekish ago.
Also loving my Brute Belt so far though I haven't loaded it with heavy weight yet. Apparently it can go up to 4 plates? But it's a study belt and it's not a chain dip belt so it fits into a bag rather easily.
I need a gym bag now for all my belts and shit.

Yea my hamstrings are a weak point for me since I squat high bar and don't do regular deadlifts anymore. I've been doing some accessory work to try and improve them, size isn't the issue. Not being able to pull really is a downside.

I need to be much quicker though. At least I think I do. I'll know better after my comp. strongman is a whole different beast than powerlifting. Being strong isn't enough, you gotta be able to move quick too. And I've spent all this time on static strength, moving is a issue.
It can take a while to work out, but can't hurt to see a sport doctor I'd you're concerned. About 2 years ago when I had my senior sciatica issue it took months to fix.

Damn I am a twig compared to you beasts
I'm actually pretty fine with this but I would like to get better definition in the lower abs. Would squats help with that?
I guess not eating shit would help more than anything huh
You're already pretty lean, so working them would help. Hanging leg raises, ab rollouts, squats, deads, pull-ups, etc.
Also, anything you can do standing, do standing.
