Aka the_asthmatic_strongman. As I’m asthmatic, I’ve got strong man aspirations, & I’m in-fact a man. So 2 out of 3 ain’t bad. Trying hard to get strong & strength sport training done.
Warning incoming political post.

For those wondering Trump isn’t stupid, well he’s not *that* stupid. He knows the economic harm the tariffs are / will cause, that’s the plan. This is because Trump is a disaster capitalist.

Obviously this advice doesn’t apply to #KeyWorkers who will be risking their lives go get into work. But I’m sure we’ll get rewarded albeit with a round of applause, or something equally useless!

New #personalbest at 180kg today. The lockout was a bit more of a challenge than normal. The top half of the lift is usually my strongest, so I think I just need a bit more focus next time.

Just leaving Manchester after attending the brilliant #QEDcon conference.

One of the talks was about #HIV. It’s always hard to accept you are failing patients. But we are in the way we isolate patients. And all to often blame the “victim”.

Was going to start off with a more positive post. But this train just past me, and, well!

Unfortunately we were thanked with year in & year out real terms pay cuts.

Can’t pay your bills with thanks & good wishes.

At this point this should just be painted over.
