I’ve been moving, so there isn’t gonna be much of a post today. I’ve got lots of things planned for you guys including more TM-related posts, interviews, videos, and maybe even that podcast idea. Post your PR’s, training updates, questions, or musings to the comments and I’ll reply to them whenever I have internet this weekend. Have a good’un.
This is what Brent looked like when I met him:
Here are Brent’s squat attempts in a meet we did at WFAC in February of 2009. Brent hits 180kg for his last attempt. He has since hit around 210kg in a meet (sorry Brent, can’t remember).
@Derek, @crkilgo
Thanks guys, I will. No clue what the hell LDL particles or what the importance of triglycerides are, but I’ll make a note of it.

“there is too much snow for me to walk around in a bikini all the fucking time.”
This is just blatantly untrue. Any weather is good weather for a bikini, especially with your numbers ;)
^ Mind you, photos are the only way to be absolutely sure…wait, hang on a sec – this isn’t T-Nation!
bought 1 round of jack shots for 9 people. PR.

@MattTruss223 – As tempting as waistline extenders sound, they somehow don’t sound slutty enough for me. Besides, I really need THIGH extenders.
@sapper09 – We had a snowstorm that shut down the stupid town for the entire week. But, Target has new bikinis on display when you first walk in the door. I bought two. They both have sparkles.
squat 195×1
30/m/220lbs
-Tied a deadlift 1RM PR at 405 lbs.
-New deadlift 5RM PR at 360 lbs.
-Stalled at 280 lbs on squats recently. Reset to 250, workin’ my way back up.
-Hadn’t done any dips in months. I used to be gassed after half a dozen, could hit 10 on a good day. Banged out 15 for a joke Friday afternoon. Good times.
I pr’d with a triple 360 lb. deadlift this week… I told my girlfriend – she did not care.
BigShawn, I tell my wife about my PRs all the time.
I get a look that registers just a hair more interest than Walter does above.
BigShawn, when I PR’d a 1RM at 365lbs, my wife asked me why anyone would want to lift that much weight.
You two should start doing the hand and thigh lift so you can tell the lady about your 1,000lb+ PRs. Tell her that’s half the weight of a miata or some other manly vehicle.

“As tempting as waistline extenders sound, they somehow don’t sound slutty enough for me. Besides, I really need THIGH extenders.”
Nice! Slutty and big thighs is a deadly combo ;)
“Target has new bikinis on display when you first walk in the door. I bought two. They both have sparkles.”
God bless you, Target… I can picture you front squatting in the snow and said bikinis – sounds like the next CF mainsite photo! Lol
@sapper09 – I’m sorry to say that I haven’t yet front squatted in my new bikinis. But, just for you (okay, maybe not just for you, since I posted these elsewhere yesterday, but PRETEND it is just for you):

If anyone wants to spend the weekend with me, we have Glenn coming to do the USAW Level 1 Coaches Cert on Feb 12-13 at CrossFit Downtown Winston. So much awesomeness in one place, how can you resist? http://crossfitdowntownwinston.com/usaw-level-1-coaches-certification/
Notice: I haven’t had internet access over the past few days because of A) moving to a new apartment and not having service yet (and not being able to “borrow” it and B ) my Verizon data connection hasn’t been working for almost a week.
Posts will be up every day, but thanks for being patient.
@TBone
Very nice work! Both on the pics and the 220lb squat… Have to say I’m pretty jealous of you, getting to work with Glenn Pendlay all the time – sure the Feb cert will be wicked!
Have fun :)
PS. Just noticed your avatar pic, way to rock the muscle ups – and those shorts… ;)
^the second pic reminded me of this:
