I'm focusing on constantly adding weight to the bar and trying to keep form.
Today was legs day, I squatted 20 lbs heavier than last workout for 4 reps, and then took 10 lbs back off to work across for 6 reps, then 5 lbs lighter and worked 5 reps, told my spotter to come close and milked 2 more.
by the way, every rep I told him "this is the last one" and then told him "fuck it one more!"

That's the spirit that turns into size. 20lbs is a big jump and kudos for the forced reps. In this arena, more taxation makes sense.........
Oh, how could I forget.
I did 4 sets of Romanian deadlifts, with a bleeding shin.
People stopped working out 'cuz they saw me bleeding, staring at me.
They were like "You are bleeding!"

haha not here in Israel, where people mostly work biceps.
so they were kind of surprised more than upset, scared to death to watch someone bleeding.
pussies.
Wow bud, you are really far away and that land would be great to photograph (I do that in my spare time) Amazing scenery there. (Only what I have seen in books)
Man this post was a breath of fresh air after all the election coverage we are pummeled with.

Actually I'm living in Tel-Aviv, which is the Israeli version of New-York City, so nothing's special here except for the beach which is awesome.
We do have some great views though and some nice places to travel to in our small country.
Very cool and makes me realize I need to get out more and travel. My idea of traveling is going to a different gym and that is not all that often either haha

x2 for that, what a waste I'm not using what nature's giving.
I like training with friends from other cities at their gym \ them coming to mine, it's awesome.

No shit! Then let's do this brother, time to pull that bar off the floor like we forgot to load it!
We got this....
I definitely took a page out of this book on DL's tonight, did about 12 sets of deads and hit a few PR's in weight and reps. I love that adding in a few extra sets of the compound movement, it makes a huge difference.

Tonight was a success all around tonight then. Keep it up and good going!
Sounds (and looks) like you're doing some good work, and you've hit on one of my favorite things to do when I travel, which is to work out at some local gym and bring back a t-shirt or sweatshirt from it.
I have Gold's Gym shirts from Boston, New Orleans, Las Vegas, San Jose . . . a Powerhouse from Turnbull, Connecticut, (yeah, most of my travel's for business), but the Deerfoot Athletic Club in Birmingham, Alabama. I'm hoping to go to the British Isles next year, and I of course want to get to Temple Gym in London.
A thought: can you imagine starting an international gym t-shirt trading circle through the Animal Barbell Club?
