    I have a diet for you... it’s called stress.

    Raise 4 helluns with the help of a heffer you don’t want to be with, stressful sales manager job that doesn’t pay shit and drink a piss ton of coffee and caffeine all day every day.

    Occasionally mix a weekend of non-stop day drinking and you have the makings for an excellent weight loss program.

    EDIT: @creepycoug please let me know how that Indian glazed dick bacon tastes. I’m very intrigued. Kinda aroused...

    Pour, shitty sales people of the world unite!!

    Found the perfect rower for the poor, rednecks

    Did 5 x 1000 meter pieces on the C2 this AM. 2 mins rest between each interval.

    I have no idea what any of this means but it sounds like exercise.
    It's about 27 mins of exercise. 1000 meters takes around 3 mins and 40 secs at the pace I was going today.

    It's interval training bruh. It's like sprinting a half mile and then walking for 2 mins. Repeat 5 times.

    I know what intervals are bruh. Looks like you need to shorten up your rest time.

    2 mins interval is pretty standard for 1000 meter erg sprints. It's different than running.

    1:50 splits for 500m? I can do that! Question for the rower gawd, have you done this one?

    2000m row
    1 minute rest
    1500m row
    1 minute rest
    1000m row
    1 minute rest
    500m row

    My PR for that when I had my best "rowing machine" conditioning going was 18:26, not counting the 3 minutes of rest. That shit is not easy.

    No. But this would be good option certainly.

    For a point of reference when I was 21, I could pull 6:06 for 2000 meters. 1:31 splits. That's was about 6th best of 24 guys on the sqwad. Only 2 guys in any given year could break 6:00 for 2K.

    Now they have 20 guys that can go under 6 mins (1:29 splits) for 2000 meters. Their S&C coach is so much better and they do the kind of power lifting that we never did.

    So, in the last few weeks my ropeskillz seem to have gotten over the hump and hit a bunch of new milestones all at once. It's making it easier to jump rope for longer intervals now that I'm past a basic jump/boxer skip/alternate foot grind.

    Some PR's I've hit.

    Sustained double unders for 20 seconds. I couldn't do 1 a month ago.
    Sustained backwards jump for 30+ seconds. A month ago I could do this for about 3-5 seconds.
    Transitions between front and backwards jumping.
    Crossovers I just figured out today and can basically do them as long as I can jump. Part of what inspired this poast.

    I'm starting to look like not a retard in the gym.
