You picked up 143lb dumbells? Do those exist?
Are you Ronnie Coleman?
thats 71.5lb DB's
143 is all together.........
Just some thoughts:
Lately iv been really thinking a lot about sprinting. Im curious of what i could run 100m in, and id be curious of how much faster i could get.
Then last night was a 1.5 hour long documentary about all the new, up and coming sprinters in England, and thats made me wanna do more sprinting
Im guessing you cant just go to a running track and do your own thing, i reckon you'd have to be in a club, or pay or something.
Anyway just some thoughts of mine.

Thats the thing, i am only thinking about it ATM. Its hard when as im not driving at the moment, cant get to places as easy.
Why don't you drive you bum?
No, but I hear you. I was into running big time, just not doing it lately as I want all my food intake tp go to putting on muscle. I would do sprints, and they are exhilarating, totally cool.
Then I was just like, hey, I wanna run a 6 minute mile. So I did. It was rough, but felt good. So yeah, just keep on keepin on amigo.
Friday was a great lifting day for me. Squat went up 20 pounds...I'm comin' for you T.
Squats
5 x 135
5 x 145
5 x 155
5 x 165
3 x 175
10 x 135
It felt great...I think I'm finally getting back into the groove with squatting. I know, I know, weak numbers, but I'm getting better, and that's what I like. I really just felt strong this time, not weak kneed like before, with just 155.
Dips 5 x 5
BW, 10, 25*, 10, 10
Not so good on dips. Couldn't even finish my set with the 25 pounder strapped on. Damn.
Pullups 5 x 5
(30), (30)
2 sets of 10 second negatives
I suck at pullups, as usual. ****!

Bit too much machine work there, not usually me. The gym was packed though and didnt have time to be waiting.
Cardio
Me and my mate did a lap of this course we have. We timed each other, and it soooo killed me. I really dont know how far it is, its fairly far.
My time was 4m 18 secs. I was soooo f**ked after this.
My mates was 4m 49 secs. I killed him.
My aim is to get it under 4 mins, which i dont even think will be too hard. Im so unfit now, i will find 18 seconds, i no it!
- After that we did 5 uphill sprints to finish it off.

Well done, even if you didn't perform as you woulda liked. Nice to see you busting out the sprints, well played, son.
Nice, looks like you are holding up your end of the keeping lean part. I think I'm up a few pounds, which is okay, I just don't wanna get blubbery. Damn the blubber.
Yeah I will after I check it tonight. It's gonna be high today though, since I know I'm holding a lot of water weight. Too many gin and tonics last night...ugh.
