Here’s a picture of the final ridge to the summit.

where the hell are you

Colorado

you can ascend 4,800m in one day in Colorado?

[n0el]

@Horsemen yes, the mountain cities are around 2800m, so you are only gaining 1500-2000 m depending on which mountain.

The most I did in Nepal was climbing to ~5,600m, and that was starting from ~2,200m and over 15 days. Couldn't imagine climbing to 4,300m in one day

Why would you try to be fit when being fat is more useful

[BrookG]

Alright then, I'm awfully exhausted. The new routine with HIIT and weights I started keeps me at the gym for about 2 hours. I want to eat everything rn.

trying to justify your weight?

trying to justify your weight?

If only. The fat guy is my idol, but it's really hard to become that mountain of fitness.

I started a new one this week. The one before: I used to go in the mornings (not always), 4 times a week and I was working 2 days chest (bench press straight/incline, chest flies, pec deck), biceps (preacher, incline, bicep, hammer curls) and triceps (pushdowns with cable or straight bar, kickbacks), and 2 days back (lat pulldowns with various grips, rowing), shoulders (front/lateral raise, overhead press) and legs (squats, lunges, leg extensions and curls). At the end of the workout I did core exercises: (crunches, russian twists, planks and back extensions). Now the weightlifting routine will be changing and I will accompany it with some HIIT to lose that bit of extra fat in the belly. Quarantine did its part

Got invited to run a 5k, but my body has been absolutely 2020'd.

Really slacked off the last 2 weeks. Looking forward to getting back to it.

Ahhh... Excited to have a thread like this here. I've been doing squatober this month. My lift today is:

Back Squat 5reps @ 55% 60% & 65% of max.
DB pullovers 4x5 superset with BB Bendover Rows 4x5
Light DB Romanian Dead Lifts 3x10
Pullups 4x4
DB Bicep Curls 4x25

The premise is you do squats 5 days a week for a month and then see where your max adjusts to. I really like it.

Is this the bigthunderman who's YouTube videos I watched to get me from noob to less of a noob, from whom I learnt that market upgrades are good?

Yes, and I'm glad that one of us became less of a noob.
