That sounds pretty cool.
Good luck. The hell of it is, he busts his butt out there and then that ugly dude with the mustache is always photo-bombing his pics.

Russian or American? I haven't touched a weight, other than my belly, in way too long. Thinking of picking up some KBs to get back into it. Probably start with ~35#. Thinking get ups, swings, snatches, and cleans will start to right the ship.
Russian. I had to start at a new gym to ensure I had a rack this morning but I couldn't find their kettlebells. So that may have to end while I do the 5X5 thing.
Trump being classless,tasteless and clueless as usual. Sorry, trump is a no tax payin pile of shiit. My young wife decided to play the field and had moved several dudes into my house

45 minutes on the hamster wheel.
Set at three I'm sure. I don't your crossed eyes would allow for the coordination necessary to actually run on one.

Once the house remodel is done, I think the wife will push for us to be a rack in the basement as our current schedule makes it tough for us to belong to the same gym. Rack, bar, and a few bumpers won't be too expensive. I have 300# of hard plates.

Some finish issues on little things but pretty good for a home gym. https://www.titan.fitness/

I never really considered it before but I may do the home gym thing now. My son is older so works out every day and getting to a gym here isn't as easy as other places I've lived.
You can get a LOT of schit for pretty cheap through amazon.
But I do like going full douche bag and parking my bike on the sidewalk in front of the LA Fitness and walking in with my wireless ear buds.

Their fold back to the wall racks are much cheaper than some other options I've looked at.

If one buys a home rack make sure it has a catcher bar. More than one has been found dead in the home gym or seriously injured from not being able to handle the bar weight and alone with none to bail them out from the bench. It also can get real ugly without one when doing squats and something goes wrong.

Let me guess---sleeveless hoody too? Got back into the gym today after about a week off. Did cardio, felt good but my HR was 5-10 points above normal, just from spending time at sea level.

Perhaps, but in Fla you need a gold chain necklace to keep up. And a good pair of shuffleboard sneakers. White naturally....
Yesterday: iSatori weights and runner stretches.
Today: 6 mile jog/walk with Merlot.

I've been swimming (3 days last week, only once so far this week), a little running, almost no biking.

Another 65 mile bicycle ride yesterday. Not bad for a 62 year old with a 30 year old riding buddy. I'll take it. Been kinda remiss on getting to the gym lately though. Cycling somehow seems more important & more fun right now.
Keep on truckin' all! We're just competing against ourselves, until hunting season hits. Then it's The Ridge I'm working against.
Have to admit, I surely do feel good when I'm in decent condition.

But that doesn't make you full d-bag. Your male friend videoing you in the gym for your instagram post makes you full d-bag.

The one good thing about Fla is you can drive up 95 N in a rented mini van and do 90-95mph. At which speed, finally you will not be a slow moving hazard. I had to ask a policeman, just how fast can I go there without getting a ticket? He said 89 will be fairly safe to avoid being pulled over. He also said, they really don't like to pull people over, in that every one slows down and a traffic jam builds up quickly.

Burpees and elliptical yesterday. 18 x 12 burpees with 3 minutes of elliptical between.
Short on time today so it was cardio express for 30 minutes.
What would Porter Rockwell do?
