 Hey, we're in a different house. What happened? Uh, Mike was making too much noise. Shut your mouth. Help me! Help me! We, uh, got kicked out. It's no big deal. Cops are on our door. It's whatever. It's a typical Tuesday. And so Mike said, I'm scared. And I said, Mike, don't be scared, bro. I'll take you. And so we all decided to get a hotel room together. We called this dude ranch. Show the view. It's a beautiful view. Show where the magic happens. That's the bathroom, actually, I was referring to. So we checked in here. We got a great deal. Mike negotiated. All right. All right. Single and ready to mingle, ladies. How many lady viewers do you have? At least, at least three. Oh, yeah. Yeah, come on, man. Well, then we'll get you a wife. I don't get it. I don't get it. I don't get it. What else is going on? Mike is the best at delegating other people to film content for him. He'll just take the camera, turn it on someone. It's like, fill my blog with entertainment. I'm vlogging. But not me. Not me. The point is, the point is to show my friends. Not just to show my fat face, all right? You don't have any friends in this room. Why are your pants off, dude? It's 12 o'clock in the afternoon. Yeah. The savage Ryan that's off camera is coming on camera. Yeah, why are you being rude? Why are you chap sticking up on my channel, bro? 20 degrees, I want to tell the beach police. 20 degrees, I want to tell the beach police. Is it 20? It was 20 this morning. And it feels about the same right now, bro. It's cold. It's cold. It's below freezing. Yeah. What's your meter saying? We're Cali kids. These boys from California. It says it's cold. It says it's cold. Bro, it's cold. Too cold for some sweatpants. Yeah, but they're wearing more than we are. I know, but that's because they're actually prepared. It's not about what you can handle. Yeah, the human body can handle the same amount. So we've got about a 15-minute hike. So it's your thieves that get on their horse. I need to move fast. Let's see your best Wim Hof. Hit the Wim Hof. I'm not doing the Wim Hof, bro. Omar, hit your best Wim Hof right now. Impersonation. Bro, it's cold out here. Hit a Wim Hof. I would literally, if we had time, start stripping off all my shit. If we weren't late to solid, that's what I'd do. Wim Hof, bro. You just Wim Hof the whole way there? I'll fucking do it when we get to solid. I'll just start, yeah. He actually did a seminar, one of his guys at Ford's Fitness, and Shawn did it. Shawn's always my hero. You're supposed to do a whole bouncing, centering yourself before you enter. That's like a meditation. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And Shawn missed it because he was too busy working. He stepped inside the pool, the frozen pool. Everyone else is complaining, oh my god, there's death. He's like, pour more ice in there. Come on. Are you laughing along? Fuck, it's loud. We got 15 minutes. See you at Solace. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the gym session of the century. There's a little old me, a little old Omar, and we're surrounded by a bunch of freaking monsters. So I got there early. Omar wanted to grab a snack or a juice, me and the homie, Ryan, sped ahead because it was freezing cold. And before everybody got there, I wanted to get my quote unquote mandatory work done. So when I travel and because I travel and because of business and content and things, there's a certain amount of lifts. Frequency and volume that I have on my head, kind of a minimum amount that I think I need to progress that I want to hit when I travel. And so this trip promised myself I'd grab two squat sessions, one or two deadlift sessions, and then two bench sessions minimum. So continuing with kind of my linear periodization on the come back I believe today was 365 for sets of five. And although it looks like I'm absolutely smashing them at the time, it felt extremely freaking heavy. As I talk to you today, we're continuing that periodization and every time because it is a heavier load than I've touched in now going on for almost three months because I took two months completely off plus the one month rebuild or so, I haven't squatting it is. It's a new stimulus that I haven't touched in a very long time. Pretty happy with my form. Reaching depth pretty dang easy. Everything feels tight. Everything feels comfortable. Obviously my quads and low back are quite out of shape. So they're taking a little bit of a beating. But generally speaking, both squats and deadlifts feel great, although this is still 70% under 70%. I'm probably talking shit. Who knows what I'm saying. Next, the big boy showed up and Oak on the menu had some overhead press and bench. So because content, because when in Rome, do as the Romans do, decided to hop in with him. I think he wanted to hit a one rap max PR. I had no real goal for the overhead. So I decided sure, I'll hit a one rap max. The Homie Keiger had a bunch of reps. I think he did sets of five six. Don't quote me. And then Omar was just getting some general volume in as well. Omar, although I'm slightly stronger him in the squat bench and deadlift overhead. Not even pound for pound because I am heavier than him. Just straight up is a beast and would probably crush me. I think he did 195 or so and he's weighing about a 180 and crushes it for five. I ended up doing maybe 205 for three and then 205 for one pretty dang grindy rep. All of a sudden I don't know how I don't know when my entire freaking lifting career besides perhaps the deadlift. I've been pretty dang bad at grinding reps and all of a sudden with bench and overhead. Your boy learned how to grind. I don't know how maybe I'm just going to it casually. I really don't know why or how nothing's changed in my training. The only thing that's changed mentally is I'm even more casual. Although I've kind of always been kind of a cerebral lifter but I've been more focused on my lifting itself. Recently I've just gotten very, very good at grinding for no apparent reason. I've gotten more casual carrying a little bit less. And I know that's what people are going to say. Well you care a little bit less. That doesn't work. That's fucking fake. And we had Tron in the house. Homie Tron. Beckham I think tried to go for a single a little bit above 250 don't quote me and then he ends up crushing 225 for some reps. Overall cool energy, cool to train with people especially now with my schedule at home. I basically trained by myself two or three times a week literally at a commercial gym or anywhere and then I trained once or twice with Connor or Alan or the combination of both. Kiger I don't know what he weighs but he was just smashing on whatever it ended up being. This is one shit maybe 210 looks like 10, 5, 2 and a half. Don't quote me. But he's crushing him pretty good where shit anything above 180, 175 starts to be really, really happy for me. I can manipulate 135 to 175 pretty good on the overhead but for some reason I put a decent amount of work on it. I just tend to be a little bit better with dumbbells whether it's dumbbell overhead or even are those cuts coming on the triceps? Ladies and gentlemen are we finally getting lean? Is there some cuts coming in on them triceps? And this fucking animal who don't quote me again because all my facts are artificial but I think Oak benches around 550 or so. I think it's his best competition. He ends up crushing 320. He takes 295 for a go on overhead and it becomes absolutely insane there's Saron trying to push up 275 strict. A little too heavy today. Here's my 225 which like I said grindy I guess in video it doesn't look that grindy but in my head I was underneath that barbell for at least 10 seconds. Here's 320 ladies and gentlemen absolute monster overhead press. Not a lot of guys are crushing this. I know Jeremy Hamilton is pretty dang good at overhead. He gets it moving pretty well and I think it just gets in front of him and once he finds out where it is he crushes it back into place. Jeremy Hamilton I think is around that range. Dan Green obviously. Then I just move on to close grip just wanted to get a little bit more pressing in before the day was done. Everybody else started doing different things a little bit of video etc. Hope you enjoy the rest of the video. Smash the thumbs up for the voiceover. Enjoy the vlog. I'm so tired. Barely worked out. I wanted the table with a bunch of animals. Big beastly animals. He's 6'60 for 5. Bro they don't know. I didn't show your face. They brought you ketchup bro. Nice. I'm just ready. Yep. Bro tell them what we did today. This is going to be called Mike and Friends the vlog. I'm really good at delegating. What did we do today? Mike did 3 sets. Everyone else did about 10 sets. Mike did overhead press. You did 225. You got that for a rep. That's alright. That's good. Close to OPR for never doing overhead. Wow you're really fishing for praise here. It was quite good my man. No it wasn't that good. Not damn 5 but I'm not mad at it. We squatted 365. I did some chin ups. I benched 225. There's a lot of strong guys and people in the gym. Now I'm back here. I'm exhausted. Tomorrow we got another long day of podcasting. I love you. I don't know what to do with my hands. Goodbye. Bye? Why is it so hard to say goodbye? You just keep ripping on it for like 10 minutes. Hello? Bye? You got to make a 10 minute video. 10-01 baby. Bye? 10-01. I'll never say goodbye to you. No it's a damn. I don't know. I'm not going to eat it. Look at that. Yeah he's good dude. Else is great. He makes you look distinguished. But you're actually thinking about something other than food. That's actually why I grabbed my thing. I wanted to post my 365 squat but I might have to post that. That looks amazing. Yeah he's fucking talented. Go follow ouse underscore photo Instagram. Go do that shit. Bye. I'll post it for your Instagram. I love you. I love you. Bye. Are you still saying bye to them? You got to learn how to say bye. Here's how you say bye. We're zoomed in. We're zoomed in. Where are you coming so aggressive? Where are you coming so? I'm leaving. I don't say anything. What's that called? The Irish Goodbye? It's called the Omar goodbye buddy.
