I find it remarkable, after losing 25 pounds and feeling good and starting to really see results, how a quick picture, taken when you aren’t trying to look your best, makes you realize that you still have a large way to go.
Pictures taken this morning, and they’re pretty badass, but if I look this big now, how in the hell must I have looked 25 pounds ago?


This is a paused front squat – got to get down into that position and hold it for 5 seconds, then stand up. The pressure on my wrists to hold the bar was the most painful – I ordered some wrist wraps today. Now, to focus on narrowing the load.
I’ve got a big ass, is what I’m saying. I mean I’ve got junk in the trunk. Big.Ass.Wide.Load
