The Revival of the Shadows

[Shadowschmadow]

Training is going to be put on hold this week. We still have some things to take care of at the house, and we still have to go furniture/carpet shopping. And I still need to get pest control out there after I pull the carpets up. However, we're going to dedicate time everyday to doing bodyweight exercises at home so we can get our bodies stretched out and ready for getting back to the gym, which we should be back into full swing beginning next week (hopefully). As of late, we have not been to the gym - as I stated above, I haven't even shaved since we bought the house so I'm claiming is my attempt at no shave november.

By all means, come over and paint that foyer of ours.

The wife and I have been training together for over a year now, and we enjoy training together. She does all the same PL movements that I do, and she's proud to be a powerlifter. She has several PL shirts to make it publically known that she doesn't play around.

Update - spent the weekend pulling up carpets, cleaning the floors, putting in outlets and switches, furniture shopping and putting 2x2 foot holes in the dining room ceiling... I have lots of progress pics, but that requires time to upload them, so I'll get around to it at some point.

About the hole, well, let's just say it should be illegal for the previous owner to be in possession of a screwdriver or any other tool. Whomever buys the house after me, will get a house where all repairs and renovations where done properly... Not the dining room light fixture being drilled all the way through the sub-floor, and supported by a 2x4 free floating on the drywall to help distribute its weight, with the original recessed light frame still in the ceiling, wired up using a commercial box and commercial 12g wire... Yeah, that's how retarded it has become.

But its all getting fixed properly by yours truly... Who also used to be an electrician.

I guess we'll let you count rehabbing your house as cardio...

Cardio? Maybe. I can tell you my back hurts more when I leave the house than any deadlift session will ever do. Lol.
