You should never max out alone, ever. If you're lifting heavy then you'd be crazy not to have a partner to spot you. Just don't get a partner so short that you get tea bagged when he spots you on the bench.

OK folks. I have getting in on this. I run, bike, and lift weights, but I don't control my eating like I should. I think I eat a decent mix of healthy foods overall, but I just eat way too much. I am currently at 212 and want to be at 190 or less by my anniversary (late november). Here we go.

Back down to 192. I'm having a tough time breaking the 190 barrier. Staying up late every night watching the Olympics isn't helping because that's when I like to snack.

I'm 6' 2". I'm not going to get any draft from Arch and he can just tuck right in.

I'm still 195 today, but considering midweek I weighed in at 198 after my wife made a few cakes that I kept snacking on, I don't feel too bad about 195. I only got out to run once this week since I have been staying up too late watching the olympics so I haven't been able to wake up early enough to run before work.

Also found out that I have low thyroid levels. He says my new meds will boost my metabolism, hence assisting in the weight loss.

I weighed 247 after riding from salem over mount nebo to nephi. That is the waterboarding of cycling climbs. I have never see so many false summits. I will not be doing that climb for another year or two.
