Morning people,

how much water do you guys drink daily?

I am hooked on sparkling water. Go into withdrawals without it and even fill my 36oz gym water bottle with it. I drink 4- 4.5 L of sparkling water a day.
If I drank as much tea as AG I'd put a catheter in.

My girlfriend loves that shit, everywhere we go has to have it. It taste like a very wet mud to me.

LOL, surprisingly close! Just add in a few wind chimes made from finger bones and you nailed it..

LMAO, I was gifted with an oversized bladder and heart.....and belly. When I had the pacer put in, I was restricted to the bed for a good 12 hours or so. Don't know if you're familiar with the men's urinals for use while you're stuck in the bed, but I filled up one immediately after surgery, and had to call for a second because I filed up the first one and still had to go. Ended up filling up the first one and 3/4 of the second one. Think it was from the meds they used in an attempt to sedate me (they failed miserably); Versed, Fentanyl, and Dilaudid. My body just laughed and I was wide awake the whole time.

[almostgone]

Ugh...time to get ready for work.

[marcus300]

I lived down south for quite a while and they love their sweet tea and I mean SWEET! they use a ton of sugar in it.

Ive never tasted that shit, is it nice?

I wouldn't like to live next door

[MuscleScience]

It’s terrible, ruins a otherwise good drink.

[DCI]

Shoulders was great last night.

Heavy and fast. Started with rc warm ups and light standing db pressing. Once warm into heavyish standing db presses. Then into standing smith machine press, shrugs with superset front and side db raises to finish was great the veins in my chest and neck where bursting lol.

I was too wrecked for cardio I slept till 9.20am yesteday morning clean through my alarm for work etc.

I'd sleep with a bat next to my bed if I came over and stayed but saying that I bet no one leaves you sick fuk lol lol

I guess it’s like most other things in life, what you grew up and are familiar with is typically something you enjoy or are at least comfortable with. I personally love it, especially on a really hot day. “Sweet” is a relative term, even in the south. I don’t like mine super sweet. I used to say my grandmother made syrup, not sweet tea. It was just too much. I’ve started drinking unsweetened iced tea with no artificial sweeteners. I like my coffee black, no sweetener, cream, milk...nothing.

I like hot teas as well. The earl grays I’ve tried, love’em!

[OdinsOtherSon]

Good morning everyone. It’s Friday! Hope you all have a great day and weekend!

All this work you speak of...is this to pay for your sweet tea habit? If so I am about to start a Go Fund Me account for you because just thinking about how much you work makes me tired. I think I had one day where I had read about all your working and was like, man, I think I'm too tired for a session from thinking about how much AG works.

Unsweetened tea for me. I'd have to sell part of my liver or a kidney to buy sugar for all the tea I drink.

[almostgone]

Think I need more sleep. Crashing back out for a bit.

Comments:
Another brutal workout, I had to catchup on my cardio and some other things since my back workout on Tuesday killed and I hurt my quad on squats. Cardio actually went ok with my quad. I wrapped it pretty tight and it didn’t bother it much. I had a massive massive pump, which was the way I designed it. It appears I’m finally starting to lean out as my vascularity is coming in good. Again I should be much leaner and vascular at this point but I guess as we age it doesn’t bounce back like it use too.

Geez, I'd be up peeing all night long...

You keep a very clean/strict diet and lifestyle anyway, don't you? Much respect for that!

[almostgone]

Getting ready for work here in a few. Woke up with my lower back all jammed up from squats a couple of days ago. Decided to opt for stretching and rolling tonight and will lift tomorrow night.
Working a little later hours this weekend and starting back up a few hours early Sun.night/Monday morning. Hopefully, this will be easy $$, but we'll see.

[almostgone]

Question for y'all since we're discussing fluid intake and bodily functions. As I posted before, I drink a pretty decent quantity of water and unsweetened tea, also usually about 2-4 liters of water while lifting.
Anyway, after working larger body parts like legs or back, I will dump tremendous amounts of fluid during the 8 hours or so after I lift, waaay more than usual. Anyone else do the same?
I'm not retaining fluid/visible edema, heart seems to be ticking along just fine, I don't add any sodium to my food, etc.

Y'all and sweet tea fuked me up and couldn't read anymore because of the tears in my eyes AG lol, your a funny fuking cunt mate.
I kind of stay the same regarding sweating no matter the body part but legs does require extra fluid intake for me. Maybe you need to relax on your veranda on that old rocking chair sipping on that sweet tea while those tourist scream like fuk in your barrels

Now we talking

[songdog]

Good morning Marcus and the rest of the gang guess we know now who are the sugar lovers around here now!

[kelkel]

Damn. Once a night, sometimes two if to much coffee involved. Finasteride for life.

[almostgone]

Well, the work was a tad more involved than I thought, but not as bad as it gets. Headed home!

[kelkel]

Yesterdays back workout:

Pulldowns (forward grip): 3 sets 10-12 reps quite strict. Meaning not leaning way the fvck back and changing the effect of the movement
Smith supported rows: 3 sets heavy again 8-10 reps. Ham was impeding these but did not this time. Getting better!
Regular rows: 3 sets moderate weight 8-10 reps. Did not do for the past 4 weeks due to ham but felt fine.
Dumbells over incline bench: 3 sets reps drop quick on these: 15, 12, maybe 10. Great finishing exercise imho.
Shrugs: 3 sets heavy again 10-15 reps.
Dumbell shrugs: High reps with pause, just wanted to hold the peak. About 20 reps or so 2 sets.

Back is feeling it today.

Still pisses me off walking by my new cybex single leg kneeling curl machine. Another week or so and I'll be able to use it, dammit. I hear it laughing at me.
