gotta do some cross training. I put on some heavy boots and went for a long hike in the hils behind my house (fuq da gym) brought a bag with a couple cans of beer and came back with a ****ton of ca cash refund cans and bottles

I also grabbed a long heavy pipe and used it as a weight to help excersuze my wrist i recently broke. carried/swung it all the way home; steel is at $0.11/lb right now, but that doesnt matter cuase it turns out its a lead pipe

also found a pretty thick copper cable down there.

gonna go down there and carry a lot more steel up that hill, should make for some great excersize

No doubt scraping is a work out , Some times I'll have a empty truck load it and find out I loaded 500 pounds 125 loose - then i ask my self how did i get 375 in my van -Once i pushed and yanked a 300 lb fridge out of a dumpster. Some how I moved a 700 lb safe on to a jack to lift into my car. To this day I use that as a reference when i try to budge a object .

I am into fitness myself, I am a road cyclist and runner. Scrapping takes the place of weight lifting. When my friends see my guns they ask how many times per week I go to the gym, I tell them zero. Just watch your lifting technique and your back.

I do Crossfit. It is excellent way to build up strength. Although of course scrapping is a lot of lifting as well.

If that was a lead pipe it's worth at least .50 cents per lbs.

its the same darkish color as some the wheel weights ive found so im pretty sure it is lead, but im only bout 80% sure

I have said it before but I'll say once more . The rim on the dumpster has made my Stomach core strong , I remember 3 years ago I would get on the rim slowly 10 seconds later i was grunting holding my breath going ammmmm eye balls popping - NOW I jump up land on the rim no grunting I breath normal and yank out hevy items.
I was recently Kicked in the Stomach and did not feel it at all But thats a story for a PM only.
