The prescribed weight is 225, and I was able to lift the weight pretty easy without to much trouble, so next time I should add the weight on. Runs were done on the treadmill, I don't know if that really counts.

I'm angered that I just don't do enough work. I'm pretty lazy on stretching and doing fundamental exercises.  Needs to change.

Current handstand record is 20 seconds. Poo Poo.

All of the crew on this show is East Coast. While it's been nothing concrete, some interesting things have been thrown out about the possibilities  of future work for these guys, both in New York and out the country. 

This hits me in almost the same sort of way that it hit me when I first moved out to Los Angeles.

See I don't really like Los Angeles very much. I want to, but I'm not sure It's for me after all. If there's enough work for me in New York, it'd be a lot of fun to live there and maybe just visit Los Angeles. It might pull me out of the funk.

I'd have to be super talented to make it anywhere, so regardless of where I go I'm going to have to continue to step up my game. I'm also banned from putting on any weight. My defining career to this moment has been in part to my size. 

I'd also like to think I'm fluid enough to be able to move when I have to, and NY is better, that's where I should go. Just thoughts right now, but it excites me a little. 

We'll see if I get any calls from those guys for work. If I don't get any calls, I'm going to at least visit and check it all out. 

workout plus thoughts equal....BRUCE LEE!

WORKOUT!!!

3x5 squat 172lbs

3x5 mil press 45 dumbbells

3x5 power clean 145lbs

Johnny Stewart just completely roasted Jim Cramer on his show and the majority of the reason? The dynamic of Stewarts show is Comedy, thus meaning that he can stand by his main points and not be called out. Thus meaning he can say any thing with conviction.

It's the same concept as the Michael Phelps mishap. If he had been vocal about marijuana use before he was outed it would have been no big deal. But because he created an image that was opposite from his true self (at least in some formality....) he had to go back and apologize for himself. Or....

"To thine own self be true"

in that vein I love my friend Luci Romberg  because of tonight. "Why not? You're a Hollywood Stuntman!"

brilliant.

Pictures. Pictures GALLOOORE.

This is one of the longest trips I have ever been on, and there's at least another week and a half of it. Then I go back to Louisiana to see family and friends. There's shows both in Louisiana and Georgia right now, so I'm going to try and piggyback this work onto those.

Here's more than a few pictures from the trip so far

I've fulfilled this weeks strength workout obligations, so the rest of the week is mine to play with handstands and what not, without feeling guilty.

I've decided that with my paltry four years in the buisness, the skills I have, my attitude, and my look I am a commoditiy. There are a few shows around Atlanta and some in New Orleans and I'm gonna try and get on a few. Hopefully. But I'm a profesional and no longer a kid trying to do something, so Im gonna act accordingly.

Call the Police cause I'm murdering workouts!

What's wrong with me in a nutshell

It's 4 am and I can't sleep because of my night schedule and what did i get up to do? 

Practice handstand pressups. And I got better at them so I'll probably be able to sleep tonight/this morning without laying awake questioning myself. I hope.

Todays workout, no clever title today

From Starting Strength

Squat 3 x5 162lbs

military press 3 x 5 dumbbells 35lbs

power clean 132lbs? I forgot.

This is why we dooo it.

I had a breakthrough today during a workout, however small. I managed to hold a wall planch just a little bit longer than usual. That small little bit part of productivity makes me feel completely fantastic.  And that's what it takes for me to feel happy in my life

That feeling is like a drug, and I am addicted to it. Any improvement, any challenge a little closer to getting accomplished. That's why I think I've felt so bad lately is somewhere down the line I got scared and stopped pushing myself. Maybe my challenges have just gotten bigger and harder. All I know is when I don't have that feeling, I feel awful. 

I've heard preachers say that we praise God by doing whatever it is he wants us to do. I've read verses that anything we do as praising God is in Honor of God. I think that this is what God wants me to do, to challenge myself, and if I can worship and praise my God through this, then how great is that? It's a huge challenge. It's letting go of all my fear and my inhibitions. I don't know why it's scary to me when I know the payoff is so great, but it still worries me. One day at a time.

todays workout

1 minute of static holds

• Back Tucked Lever
  
• Tucked Planche
• Handstands
• L sits on the rings
  

Some Planche training

3x5 Handstand pushups

3x5 Back Lever swings

and then it kind of petered out after that.

I think I need to cut the fat out of my workouts, this took a little to long and I didn't get to all the hardcore stuff I wanted to.
