You, spinning on one of those poles, is a visual I can REALLY do without.

I said attending...nothing about participating..

I'm going to do 10 sit up's and 10 push up's every day till fishing starts.:musc:. Just enough so I don't get muscle bound:)

I'll probably do a quick cut when i'm done with my current program then move on to either a westside template or 5-3-1. my goal would be to get to the 1000 lb club by spring, but that's pretty ambitious. hey, you asked :hihi:

i do it for overall health and because i like it, not with fishing in mind. fishing is not a physical activity IMO, and any relatively healthy person my age can do it. staying in shape for the long term definately extends the time that you can stay at it though as you age.

Well done. I'm hitting the gym3-4X per week, mostly agility/endurance/core type stuff.:musc:
Of course there's the goodwill building w/the wife too...she gladly returns the favor every summer when my one night commando trips to remote islands with certain surf mavens takes place. She takes care of the kids while I kick the snot out of myself. It all balances out.

Why don't they just strip? Seems stupid to pay to pole dance when people are willing to pay you.

why must you torture my fragile mind? :smash:

After bird hunting, dawn to dusk 3 days a week for the last couple of months I'm feeling like I'm in pretty good shape @ 6'-165lbs....but after seeing my bro get his arse whipped by a "little" 150 lb. tuna last year I think I'll start on the "milkshake & beers " diet to put on a few lbs. Would s*#k big time to get pulled over the gunnel after I've been bustin his balls.

been working on flex in my right elbow and shoulder.
now where did i put the cognac???

Once spring gets here I'm going to start walking again....was doing 5-6 miles a night this past summer/fall....then I'll be ready to rock once May gets here

WOW!!! Congratulations!! Please tell me how you dropped the weight.And how long have you been at it?

Awesome......

thinking of ways to get Hern to get his shoulder back in shape......

Eddy and DAD - NICE JOB. every pound off your bod is like dropping 5 of carrying gear on a long walk or swim..... i speak from lengthy experience hiking, backpacking and diving...

i plan on doing some more upper body and cardio..... im still the 98 lb weakling compared to when i got sick..... and i have ZERO endurance.... a problem when ive taken up swimming to rocks to fish at night.... :-)

6" dia. Hand Ice Auger...Multiple holes for the upper body work and I still get out on the Mountain Bike at least once a week.

I applaud anyone here who really can hit the gym >3times/week.

The biggest improvement for my casting distance may come from the new blank I'm getting wrapped right now combines with AH ICBM pencils...
