I don't know what causes it. I've heard of it for years, but never realized I had it. Some kind of neurological thing, I think. Some of the meds used to treat it are also used for Parkinson's disease. That's true of Ropinirole, which is what I'm taking currently.

This is definitely an experiment. I have very quickly developed a tolerance for this stuff. 1st night, I took a whole .25mg pill and slept like the dead, but like I said, had a bad hangover the next day. Fell asleep in the recliner after breakfast and never really got with it. Next night, I...

Today's food:

It's been a minute... I've had some distractions last week. I had a deadline to get some heavy major work done on my house in preparation for the HVAC system being installed. I also think I have my sleep issue figured out: I seem to have "Restless Legs Syndrome" which I've heard of but...

Except for the shake, which gets most of its protein from Equip Prime beef protein powder, all real food:

Food update: Yesterday: Today:

241.2 pounds this morning. 4900 calories yesterday. Back workout this afternoon. Lat pulldowns: Warmup: 180lbs: 1x10 195 lbs: 1x10 Decided to try to go up in weight today. Last time lat pulls were 230 lbs: 235: 5x5 All pretty decent sets. One good thing about lat pulldowns: you...

192.6 this morning. Man, I'm really getting frustrated! I'm eating as much as I can stand - admittedly not enough, and up and down a little bit - but can't I get a couple of pounds??? I'll keep plugging away, but the lack of weight gain is pissing me off. Maybe I'm not training frequently...

I don't know about this place; it's a small, practice facility. The ice rink is 35' x 60' or something like that, as opposed to an NHL regulation rink which is 60' x 200'. One of the guys I played with years ago was the operations manager of a facility with two "sheets" (two full size sheets...

I'll try to superset with Bulgarian Split Squats instead. That's a good exercise for skating. I need to get a half bosu ball for these; that's supposed to be good for skating balance.

It's quite a system. It's an industrial chiller which circulates sub freezing temp glycol (sub freezing for water, not for glycol) through a series of 1/2" tubes which are spaced close together. Sometimes the tubes are on concrete; sometimes sand. In this case, concrete. Water is sprayed...

I'm trying brother.

Hockey was canceled yesterday due to rink repairs. Ice was being made yesterday, so no skating. I was disappointed but it was a blessing, really. LOTS to do around here... I took the day off from training and worked. 193 this morning. 194 the past couple days. Leg day today. Squats...

Hockey game Tuesday night. I keep saying this and I continue NOT to do it: I need to start doing wind sprints. If I don't improve my cardio performance I'm going to be gassed during the tryouts in the fall. I played pretty well, and I can pretty much keep up with the fastest skaters, almost...

Weight this morning: 192.6. Still hovering. I'm getting pretty frustrated with the lack of weight gain. At least I'm not getting fat... I'm eating as much as I can - I feel uncomfortably full much of the time and I'm nowhere near the 600g carbs SuperAbs Vin suggests. Yesterday's macros...
