I walked 2km to the station today, instead of catching the bus.

I even saw the bus go past me. Self-control right there, fellas :cool:

I um. Stood up for four hours, and walked backwards and forwards between the bread slicer and the counter a lot.

I am unhealthy :(

Cannibal/Oliver - I owe you so much gratitude for putting me onto those Rippetoe books/general BOS advice (and instructional videos came with the downloaded version ;) - haven't followed it 100% but gone back to the drawing board with some of the lifts, dropped the weight, fixed the form, put more emphasis on deadlifts/presses/squats and seeing huge improvements at week 3.
No prob man - I found I had to go back and do the same, it was frustrating but ultimately it helps lift larger weights more safely.

also I noticed you've got a push/pull thing going - I'd strongly recommend trying a full body - the frequency of doing a squat, press and pull x3 a week will pack size on you like nothing else, only shit part is squatting x3 per week :p

Breeze and I have had some amazing results on this program - he's up from 65-93kg and is now a competitive powerlifter, I've gone up from 78-89kg in the same amount of time.

Just for the record, breeze and I talked the 'power clean vs bent row' thing over.

Power cleans are an awesome lift to learn because they make you explosive under the bar, thus improving your other lifts, in particular the deadlift. They arn't much of a mass builder, but if you're involved in any strength sport I think you'd be mad not to do them.

For bodybuilders without access to bumper plates bent rows are probably a better choice because the time-under-tension has a better hypertrophy effect. I'd probably add in pull ups though as I think bent rows alone will create some imbalances.

man I need to start going to the gym again :(

but anyway, today I walked from my house to the bus stop (about 1km), from redfern station to uni (like what, a few hundred metres), around uni to get to classes and back to the station and whatnot, then from the bus stop to home again

I'm pretty bad with knowing distances tbh, but I walk pretty fast and the bus stop trip usually takes me about 15-20 minutes so I guess that's about 1km? Maybe more maybe less, whatever, I did at least an hour of walking today all up so, cool.
