So far, the responses have all been good. My take?
How the hell do you get up and work out? I have done it…through two full years in the late 1980’s and I found that I hated it. I did sprints and got very little out of it. I’m an afternoon guy. Or early evening. Sometimes later in the early evening…
Chaotic intensity leads to fat loss. Sometimes Tabata, sometimes long walks on a rainy day, sometimes a game. NEVER a long treadmill.
Sleep: good.
I forgot the rest. Tired from training…[quote]sully’s wrote:

Have a “small” amount of protein 30-45 minutes before
2.Much more intense than jogging. Probably to intense for fat loss
3.eat. Sleep. Pray. Good Boy.
4.Push ups?
5.no, yes, no
6.Go Deep. Frequently. Good.

My choice for push is Inclines because Paul Northway gave me a really, really nice incline bench…
Swimming is good, sprinting is better. I saw a show on one of the cable stations and it seems that a breed of hammerhead sharks can now go on land and eat people, so I guess we are not safe even on land.

yeah, but you’re in utah. you should be ok there.
also, just because you are over 35 doesn’t mean that you are required to post in the over 35 forum.
The won’t let me post anywhere else…I got in trouble in the Vixens forum for reasons that my legal teams say are better off left for the Supreme Court and the Taliban.

DJ if you would please go over with me the hang clean, kinda like a quiz
knee’s somewhat bent(about 130 degress) start to perform a high pull but when you get to nipple leval squat down and get under it and force the elbow to point straight in front of you
just wanna make sure I can do them right tomorrow, cause I want scary traps
1.For a pushing movement, you would pick incline bench press over a standing overhead press?
What position are you on your football team?
Do you have the same simplistic approach to religion as you do training?
What exercise do you think helps the most w/armwrestling? Power curls?
Re power curls-would you recommend a heavy load for a single or a double for multiple sets or slightly less weight and higher reps per set like around 5 reps per set?
DJ in reference to my previous question about the hang cleans. I just wacthed 2 different vidoes on how too websites. One site shows the guy NOT jumping the other shows the person jumping. I’ve read that jumping should be a results of your exploisveness, not your intention.
Let’s answer the Hang Clean question…just about anything that starts below the knee and ends up on the upper chest recovery (front squat position) has been called a “hang clean.”
I like both the non jump and the jump…for different people. For O lifters…do the Old Barski Clean where you stay on the heels and “roll” under. For most athletes…jump away.
I have never said this before: it all depends on your goals.
Now…if I could start over and be coached by me: I would do the nonjump.

DJ: c’mon, now. Read my Vita. I wouldn’t know…I would argue One Handed Leaping Hungarian Split Flies…but that is just an opinion…

Discus camp is 24/7 training. Throwing four to five times a day, lift when you can (strength levels drop by the hour), eat big three times a day, Grow! bars (I kid you not…my secret to survival here) and a Low-Carb Grow! shake 2x a day. Tonight, after dinner, I went out with Greg Henger, Ben Thuma, Lonnie Wade and a camper, Greg, and did the following:
Long “Zercher” Walk with an 90 pound steel pipe.
Long Overhead Carry Walk with same pipe.
End over end pipe flips with the really big pipe.
Backwards sled pull. Twice. Then, up a hill.
Farmers Walk with 110 pounds up a hill.
This is how I train people. Throw three times a day, then…on a break…work until you can smell that damn dinner bratwurst coming right up your mouth to visit the soil.
Yes, it is Power Curls sometimes. Sometimes, it is a hill…but MOST of the time it is going out with buddies (male and female…usually hot females like the girls I know who post here) and pushing it and laughing at each other.

bwahahaha … I’m not sure if I like that response better than this quote:
Regardless, I think I should make that my auto-signature quote here at work. Some guys choose Einstein, Ghandi, or a president … lame! I’m going with Danny John.
I thrashed my left elbow on the inside (opposite of Tennis elbow). I can lift overhead etc. with no problems. If I do any kind of curl or pull/chin up, it feels like its going to rip in half. I went to the Dr. and she said there was nothing major wrong with it (tear, break etc.), but she didn’t really say anything about treating it ( she is a bike rider not a lifter). Would it do any good to wrap it or what can I do other than wait?
Again, not my field, but you know…a lot of guys have elbow issues with this, too. I mean, I went to a clinic where EVERY GUY over 30 had this issue…including my fat ass. So, the answer from the speaker: “So?”
I am not telling you to do…or not do, there is not try…pull ups or whatever, but RoadWarrior you are probably in the majority of us. Having said that, the mere fact that you rally up and actually put yourself into a position to hurt your elbow, puts you in a minority of very few people. So…like my doctor said after my second wrist surgery…“You did the remedial exercises? I never had a patient do them before…”
In other words, we all know the answer, it’s just not the answer anybody wants…

Would you say that all of that strongman stuff is more important than olympic lifting? It seems like you do a lot of that stuff when you go to your camps.
