"am by no means consuming 5000 calories, i would be lucky to hit 500"
WTF...No? NO no no
Wasting away because of lack of calories in the kitchen and pushing heavy in the gym is negating all your goals. Don't tell me this is true. 500? a pre adolescent 10 yr old eats more! Ok..I feel I am coming on strong here..you bet I have to. Can I smack you silly about now/
IMO a 14 yr old girl who eats 2000 calories a day will look better then you and all hour hard work..all she has to do it eat clean, no training.
How long have you been a member here? Honestly..500 calories? I won't waste my time anymore responding.

Im not overly proud of my diet its mostly due to scheduling and time, and then money
i work monday - friday 8 -5
so im up at 7, bowl of cereal at work for 8, eat a small wrap at lunch, home by 5:30 pending its not busy, get a shake into me unwind a bit have a 30 minute nap get ready for the gym and out the door, at the gym for 7, home at 10:30 in bed at 11. On non gym days its pretty well the same but instead of the gym, i'm biking, or street boarding, and if the weather sucks im usually running errands like grocery shopping or cleaning.
On gym days i take 5 scoops of powder, which is about 400 calories/160 grams of protein, a wrap with some salsa and cheese on it (very gourmet i know) and then for dinner (if its not a gym night) i'll either make another wrap or have another bowl of cereal. On weekends i try my best to relax as much as possible but one day is a gym day so the other tends to be biking or something. I have never had an issue bulking or with general energy through the day. I cannot eat with 3-4 hours of exercise or i cramp up pretty bad, and i don't have much time to eat at work, i work for a small family business and its busy busy all day. If i had and extra $5 at the end of the month i would invest it into food >_< but theres only so much of it and i am by no means living a lavished lifestyle haha i do have the internet but no home phone or cable tv ;P so its just trying to balance out what i can afford with what amount of time i have.

Good workout but meh overall. I had good energy and a great warm up and was pushing some great numbers i just could not get my head into the gym today. I did 6 reps total 3,2,1 @ 125 lbs for a total of 265 lbs. I have noticed substantial improvements in my fore arms both in size and endurance, and my back is starting to look pretty good as well. I did a very smooth set of 5 reps @ 45 lb dumb bell bicep curls, and had no fore arm and no shoulder pain! So i think things are looking up on that aspect and i am thinking my pain was just due to a lack of muscle in my fore arms in comparison to the strength in my biceps. Just looking forward to a relaxing afternoon, going to my gym buddies baseball game tonight so i will take my Nikon D90 and play around with it a bit =D

Almonds are cheap and one cup is about 1000 cals.
Peanut butter
Oil
Pasta
Rice
are all cheap foods that will add extra calories to your diet.

I felt like a Duramax diesel pick up running a alison transmission at the gym today. I got 3 nice solid and smooth reps of 215 lbs on the flat bench and it felt REALLY good, it felt very heavy but it kept moving! I was kind of toying with my dips today to see what i was feeling, without weight and at 45 lbs i felt kind of stiff and kind of like a brick. I got 4 reps @ 125 lbs and 3 reps for a total of 265 lbs. It felt very good and had me pumped for thursday, if today went well i am going to push for 3 plates, it only another 10 lbs and it will be alot easier to load consider all the holes lineup. Got some nice smooth sets of hand stand push ups in, and i thoroughly surprised myself with some very clean one arm push ups which not surprisingly end up at one arm/one leg haha. It was a good day and will lead to some great workout days ahead.
-
Been attacking weighted dips for about 1 month now and i feel like i have made some substantial progress. I started with 35 bs and i am now up to 135 lbs, i got 2 sets of 2 reps @ 135 lbs and i felt AMAZING. I got the insane tearing feeling and the insane pump it was pretty epic (to me). I did a few other workouts and i wanted to hit the flat bench because it was un occupied, i got 5 reps @ 210 lbs, and it also was pretty great! it was just a good night i felt good while i was there, although i slept on my arm funny again and my shoulder has had some insanely sore moments. Greatly looking forward to saturdays workout adn i will hopefully get out street boarding this weekend.
-
SUN? haha i got out for a bike ride today, it was pretty good but it took a few minutes to adjust to the temperature. I have not really been biking in a week and a bit and only been working out indoors so once i got my breathing under control put some air in my fatty tires it was a good stretching of the legs. Got some new bicycle shorts, had a lovely walk to and from the gym, hit the 275 lb dips again for 3 consecutive reps and just feel pretty awesome right now! doing some tanning tomorrow!
-
It started about noon on sunday, i have been having some intense lower back pain. Today at work was pretty sketchy and was a intense day up and down day. Getting into and out of my car i have been using the band aid approach... fast and painful >_< I had a good day at the gym though i got a smooth 3 reps @ 275 lb dips, i got 4 reps 215 lbs on the flat bench, and did a ton of stretching. This allowed me some relief but allowed me to pin point that its only on ym left side just beside my spin and feels like a pulled muscle. So i am going to get some rub on lakota and we will see what happens. I may have picked up another gym buddy to, haha she did a few sets of abs on the decline bench and has been in some intense pain for about a week so she want to come workout now to =D
-
KABOOM! it was a extra spectacular workout today. My lower back muscle is feeling about 80% better after a few layers of lakota and some intense stretching. I was feeling really good before i started my workout and was highly contemplating a push for 2 plates on the flat bench. Well i did my warm up, 5 reps @ 135, 3 reps @ 185 and then just said screw it and added another plate. So with 225 on there and one of my most substantial goals in the balance i got 3 VERY smooth reps that were not overly difficult and a decent 4th, i had a little spotting at the pivot but the rest was all me. Cooldown then dips, i got stretched and warmed up and i got 2 set of 3 reps at 275 lbs (140 + 135) and it once again felt pretty beast, i am fighting on whether to finish the week at that weight and push for more reps or run it another week then try for more? haha its not a big deal either way i just have a thirst for dips =D I will say that doing these dips has GREATLY improved my bench pressing regularity. I was having issues always hitting 215 and if i did i would get jammed a lot in the pivot from elbows inline with the body to above or as most call it the tricky spot. But i have found since hitting some serious numbers on my dips i have a lot more consistent power and its not above and below the pivot change. My fore arm pain is gone and my back is getting quite large. All in all it was well worth it! I had another former high school class mate join me today and she asked me if i was one of those people who "always want more" haha and i had an immediate "theres no other way". It seems so pointless to be satisfied being in 6 short months i went from 95 lbs on the flat bench to an unrealistic goal of 225 lbs, so what i just stop the flat bench now? haha NO WAY. Lots of protein, sleep, and relaxing for friday when i will again destroy some weight!
-
Deception.... I was feeling great when i got there other then a slight pinch in my left shoulder, so i did EXTENSIVE stretching. I did a nice warm up on the incline bench then attacked the flat bench with style. I got 3 smooth reps of 230!!!!!!! i was pretty happy with this. 2 Days in a row now i managed to increase my weight but i can assure you it will not be a third. I got another 2 sets of 3 reps @ 275 lb dips and i am not sure if i will increase this sunday or not, i guess it depends on how my shoulder feels, but sundays are good days for push's because i don't work. Pushed my core pretty good today to make up for this weeks lower back issue which is now about 95% its just mainly stiff. Just feeling good and living life i suppose. I did Hawaiian dancing last night with my mother, a few family members, my 39 weeks pregnant sister inlaw, and my mothers red hat group (a few of them) and it was alright, definitely more of a female thing but my mother seemed to appreciate my attendance and thats why i was there. Some of the teenagers there (the regular ones) felt it appropriate for mockery (i have never talked to them before) and i found this rather amusing. So when i seen them around and about i amde a few tid bit comments "get these ladies Hula dancing and they start to lift like men" haha i don't think they enjoyed it nearly as much as i expected them to but they were rude, these are the same guys that have made very rude comments about my gym buddy so they deserved it >_<.

Hey, had a good day. I am in the mood for some outdoor fun so i tried to keep it brief but intense. I got 3 reps 225 lbs on the flat bench, 2 sets 3 reps @ 275 lb dips, lots of stretching and push ups, shoulder press's, handstand push ups and much more.
Now the interesting thing about today was i got a free set of Haulin hooks. I have never used any form of wrist strap or grip assist other then gloves. So i was interested in trying these out. I usually get 3 reps on a wide arm chin up with a 25 lb plate on the dip belt. Today i got 3 sets of 3 reps. It was kind of awkward at first and i felt best with a 50/50 grip (50% me, 50% the hooks) and i felt much better stimulation in my delts and back. When i was finished my hand had lots left in them so i did some low row with them and felt really good. It seems like i will be using these just as a fore arm preserver throughout my workouts. I have no worries about loosing fore arm strength because the weighted dips arm very hard on them and working 9 hours a day with my hands =D haha it was interesting...
-
Had a wierd day, i have been getting ehadaches the past 2 days which NEVER happens, so i am semi conserned with that but i am watching it carefully. I had a good day at the gym. I got 3 reps @ 235 lbs on the flat bench, and 3 reps (2, 1) @ 285 lb dips, but i got a massive pinch on my thing from the chain and the plate >_< it was rather unpleasant, but i coult not chain it up my usuualy way because the 10 lb plate i added made it to wide at 4 plates >_< haha but its all good. Finally got a 5000 btu A/C installed in my apartment and its been running like a trooper for a few days now and keeping it nice and cool. Other then that Rib fest is coming to waterdown this weekend and that should be a fun event!
-
I had a decent day, found out i get friday off YAY! so that put me in a pretty glorious mood into my pre gym prep. My gym buddy bailed just before the gym, which is not a big deal but shes been bailing on just about all of our plans, for just about anything else >_< haha although attendance is not mandatory i consider it expected. So iv been trying to wrangle up some friend to come along with me. I really need to find a girl who's as hard working as i am =D As for the work out, i was doing my bench press, and i generally put my feet together on the end of the bench due to severe leg length issues. But it was recommended by my spotter to put my feet on the floor. I tried it and it was different, i had probably a 4 inch gap from the bench to my lower back and it was tweaking my hip weird as i desperately reached for the floor. He said it aligns my chest better with the bar and aligns your arms better and what not, i did not notice a difference. I found it harder, but im not sure if thats because im so use to the other way? but i found i just couldn't flex my body the same. So what do you do? and recommend? and why? (example of my leg length, a 28 inseam on a pair of jeans is to long.) Hit most of my weights and got some good stretching in. Planning on doing some serious bike riding tomorrow, probably road, we'll see how it goes but things are all pointing towards a good ride. HAPPY CANADA DAY!
-
Got busy saturday after the gym, i had a friend come aver and we went to rib fest. So the gym was good, nothing outstanding just warm ups and stretching, got 8 reps @ 275 lb dips (3,1,3,1) and started doing chin ups both wide arm and close with a 35 lb plate. It was a good day it was hot but my A/C has been running solidly so my apartment is nice and cool. Hopefully i will get my gym buddy back and get some numbers destroyed. TANSFORMERS ON TUESDAY!!!!
-
Had a really good day. My warm up bench was not as well as i had hoped but that can be a hit and miss at times, but my dips went VERY well. I got 8 reps, 3,3,2 @ 275 lbs and got a sensational burn in my tricep and a great tightening in my lower peck. Got a few decent sets of abs in, lots of stretching, some great weighted chin ups, and i even did some legs. Will have a gym buddy wednesday and friday so that should be good, and TRANSFORMERS tomorrow!!!

It has been an interesting week, and very interesting day. To start it off so you know what mental state i have been in., my sister in law is 1 week past due for her first child and is being induced at 8 am tomorrow morning. So my bother has not had much sleep all week and has been emotionally all over the place. So all week i have been dealing with an almost by polar brother and my very anxeous family. This is the first of our family to have a child and it has not been an easy pregnancy by any means so its nice to see and end. So i was having issues working out tonight with my mental location, physically i felt pretty amazing but getting my head there was a hit an miss depending on the minute. But i managed to get 4 of the cleanest reps @ 225 lbs on the flat bench i have gotten yet and 3 reps @ 285 lbs on the dips. I have been fighting for a few weeks on weight setup for the dips. I have issues with the chain being to short for one way but getting my thigh pinched in the chain in another. But i think i worked it out today! I got 2 then 1 rep on it and i was feeling GOOD so i got 3 then 2 reps @ 275 and a cool down and i was feeling like a monster. So my second gym buddy then joined me after an intense cardio class and i had her doing some pretty intense ab workouts, showed her the incline bench and did some legs/squats. It was just a good day, i am on cloud 9 with the baby coming (most likely) tomorrow and just everything lately, my injuries seem to be healing, my weights are increasing, and i am planning a bike ride tomorrow. I will not be going far just around town because i could be called upon by my brother to help with his 2 adorable small dogs or what ever =D so i will be ready!
-
What a wonderful few days..... i have some catching up to do i suppose, so my sister inlaw/brother were due with there first child on thursday june 30th, and no surprise she went over her due date. So her doctor had her booked in to be induced by thursday july 7th, so on wednesday nigth at the gym this is was i had on my mind the whole time, but my gym buddy pulled me through. Thursday came, my brother wasn't at work and they induced her at 9 am..... blah bla blah the day rolled by, i heard at 4 that she was 3 cm dialated so i expected a long delivery so iw ent biking and got a call after 2 hours of biking (around 9:10 pm) that it was a 7 lb baby girl. It was to late to go in and visit but i was pretty exctatic, walked over to my brothers place and spent some time with his dogs and took them outside for there business and chilled till he got home at midnight to see how the delivery went. She did very very well and the baby came out in excellent health! So my goal tonight was to get done work, protein shake and a shower then visit the baby in the hospital and then head back up stop and buy a bicycle pump from bicycle works in waterdown then hit the gym. I was an hour late to the gym, one gym buddy bailed for hunger issues, and the other one stuck it out and got some good workouts in with me. She is really into dancing and ballet and stuff so i am having her teach me some stuff. It was not a great workout tonight, but i got a fantastic ride in on thursday, will go for a ride tomorrow after work, and the baby should be coming home so then go visit/take TONS of photos! and then i am really hoping to just destroy a workout on sunday, alone sadly... haha but life is well and i am enjoying being a uncle.
her name is Brinley, 7 lbs, black hair, and shes got some fight in her!

Nothing overly great today, i thought it would be a good idea to do 20 kms of trails before the gym.... it was over 40 degrees with humidex! so it took me about 1 1/2 hours of insane amounts of sweating. Then i got 1 1/2 hours of weight lifting in plus 30 minutes of walking for transit.... it was a weird day. But i went over to my parents to build a bicycle stand and found out that the whole family was coming over for dinner and spend some time with brinley. It was a good day but i have a workout to make up for.... Picture DAY.
I apologize for the front views i had the ISO set insanely high for some previous night photos i had done and did not notice so there not as crisp as they could be but the back shot is a keeper!

Hot Hot HOt, the weather has been rather warm.... I worked 12 hours yesterday and was completely burned out from over exertion on sunday. So today i did all my pre gym prep and i felt pretty good. I was having issues even after taking my pre workout with keeping my eyes open? I was physically sharp although a bit tense and mentally set but my eyes were doing something completely different >_< It was a typical guilt trip tuesday with a bunch of noobs on all the benches so i decided to hit up some dumb bells. They felt really heavy! but i mustered through them and got a solid 3 reps @ 90 lbs and 3 reps @ 95 lbs. I then got into my dips..... one a bad day they go good and one a good day they go great? its been quite and interesting thing. I got warmed up and got my 145 lb set ready and was sitting on the 3 plates (plus 2x 5 lb plates) and the trainer that suggested i use a back pack walked over, nelt down in front of me, looked me in the eyes and asked "are you sure you want to do that to your body" HAHAHAHA "HELL YES" was my response =D i got a satisfying 2 sets, 2 reps @ 285 and 2 sets 3 reps @ 275 lbs. I was pretty happy with that so i did my hand stand push ups, weighted chin ups, low rows, some core, and leg press. It was an alright day, but i am hoping for some more substantial numbers on thursday!
Have you heard the song "rolling in the deep" by adelle?
well linkin park covered it at the itunes music festival.... was not overwhelmed with the original but damn....

Good day, i got 3, 1 reps @ 285 lb dips, 3, 3 reps @ 275 lb dips, then 10 reps @ 230 lbs (plus warm up), did most of my usual stuff, incline bench 2 times (why not?) it was good there theres more to come this weekend.

Had a bit of a change today. Went to the McMaster university gym with 2 friends who attend McMaster. Had a pretty good work out nothing over the top but i am tired now so i did good >_< Got some new wheels for my street board so i wanna go do some shredding tomorrow and am pretty exciting to relax this evening =D
-
Buzz kill.... god damnit.... what a way to start off a workout. Got me into a mental roid rage which got me insanely pumped and made all of my workouts as intense as could be but just disappointing at the same. I need more to satisfy and calm myself but it was not happening.... i pulled another muscle in my back but the rub on lakota eased it enough to bust out 45 sit ups on a extremely steep decline bench. I will be doing a push on wednesday... i need this.
-
missed my workout.... am not complaining but i got all dressed up with no where to go... (meh other things came up)
-
for every failed rep i do 2, well i missed a gym day..... so i figured if its 2x hotter then usual out then if i go for a bike ride i get double the workout.... the math may be off but i felt better =D got 11 mms in on my rocky and passed a bus ;P
-
GOT MY WORKOUT TODAY! it was not bad, i felt WAY over rested to the point i felt weak... My workout was not as intense as it usually is but i got my numbers and pushed through it. I seem alike it could be a rather active weekend =D should be a good workout sunday morning!
-
UH OH, so its been a weird few days, i missed my workout wednesday so that means friday was a re breaking in, and i have a general rule of thumb for every failed rep - do 2 more, so for every missed workout.... 2 more. But i cannot list 4 days straight so i spent some time outside.... it was about 500000 degrees. So on saturday not only was i so busy i did not eat my first meal until 1 am sunday morning but i spent 1 1/2 hours biking (both road and trail) but i spent 2 hours street boarding, got way to much sun, was dehydrated to all hell and was malnourished. So i treated myself to some pizza at 1 am so i did not die in my sleep... got to bed at a decent time (kind of went on a date to a late movie), woke up at a good time, had a good pre gym prep and drove to the gym so i could be there for 9:30 sharp and i was early. Had a decent workout, i got a smooth 3 reps @ 90 lb dumb bells on the incline bench, and some really nice dips, and i though for fun i would weigh myself seeing as it had been a week. I knew my last meal was still in me, i had my shake and a bit of water in me so i knew i would weigh in heavier then my actual weight... it read 3 lbs lighter then it should have under ideal weighing conditions.... So i know how the food sits in me, water, and shake i figured i lost 5 pounds in 6 days.... Not overly excited about that... Non of my weights have felt heavier then usual and my shirts are getting SO hard to take off. I may be one of the only people on earth thats upset to lose weight >_< I blame the heat...
-
Had a pretty good workout, i was in good spirits and had good energy, my bench press just is not as strong this past week as it has been and I'm not entirely sure why... but i hit 295 lb dips today! got 3 reps (2,1) and was very happy with this. Nothing overly exciting happened at the gym but i am starting a new sport this weekend. I have ordered a 20" Norco trials unicycle. I am pretty pumped, i get it thursday. Should be a fun weekend....
-
Severe lack of brain in gym today. I had an okay workout/stretch, had a decent bench today, but could not do almost any dips due to muscle pain between my should and neck. But went out on my Muni afterward to practice and got some decent practice layer down. SO tired.

Missed another workout... but not my fault this time. It was the civic holiday so the gym closed at 5, and i worked till 5:30 sooo..... meh i did a few sets of push ups, hand stand push ups, wide/closed chin-ups, dips in various locations.
I got some time in on my uni as well, getting pretty good on it now, got over 100 feet without falling!!! and almost removed my "junk" thats when i called it a night....
Here is an example of what my inevitable goal is.

Missed a update and basically missed another workout... Monday was closed to i tried to hit it hard wednesday... but i seemed to have pulled a muscle going from my shoulder to my neck... it has been less then pleasant.. It killed pretty much all of my upper body workouts, and basics like getting off the floor....
Today - went well, my favourite gym buddy showed up, was feeling good, my shoulder was feeling "better" but not great, got some decent bench in, 230 lb dips, stretching, skipped legs, hand stand push ups and some core.
Legs... unicycling is a monster of a leg workout.... and it have no regrets skipping legs when i go unicycling after.... I can ride over 600' un assisted (no fence), turn, control speed, dismount intentionally and non intentionally with out injury (usually) but its fun =D
-
Back in the saddle (so to speak) after a rough week i got a real workout in today! i felt like a born bread machine! i got 3 clean reps 205 flat bunch un spotted and it felt SO good, i would have pushed for 225 but there was no one there to spot me. Got 3 plates on my dips 3 reps, and on the first rep second set i could feel the smallest pain starting to resinate from my left shoulder so after that rep i put the weight down. I got 27 hand stand push ups, 45 lb dumb bells bicep curls, and things just felt good. It is super sticky and gross outside so i walked home without my shirt on and i think i may have almost caused a few accidents.... >_<
Had a great night last night to, got a few good 600' + runs on my uni in and its really starting to feel good and comfy. Worked on some slope work and free mounting. Then because i was getting tired/frustrated i went back grabbed my rocky mountain and pedalled as hard as i could for an hour until my legs fell off and then went home feeling spectacular!
Going out on the uni later and just going to have a well deserved relaxing afternoon.
-
Had a pretty good day, my shoulder on the left is feeling considerably better, but the right shoulder is being a pain again... Hit my target weights for the day and did a lot of high rep workouts, such as hand stand push ups, hands touching and conventional push ups, bicep curls, and chin ups. 1 1/2 hours of uni practice today and had some really awesome runs all over the place =D haha life is good =D and getting better.

I have been having some really great workouts, but they are lacking all at the same time... My bench both incline and flat, and my dips seem to be just getting sad... But on the same note, i am doing more hand stand push ups then every before, more chin up/weighted, and all my other weights are doing very well. Apparantly since i started unicycling i have lost 6 pounds... i am not to sure whats going on. I know i am am not losing muscle because i am having ever increasing issues with getting shirts off, and i actually could not reach my camel back step on my shoulder... this is my indication that things are growing...
I am not happy with the quality of these photos, there kind of out of focus..... its so hard to take photos with a tripod of yourself....
-
Busy Busy! having a new lady friend has not hampered my working oout time but it has greatly effected my sleep time... so that in turn effects my workouts... But i had a decent sleep last night and killed it today! I got 295 on my dips, 205 flat bench, 55 hanging sit ups, and just ahd a good workout! My pains seem to be going away and my pump is coming back!
I must say it is nice to spend time with someone who really enjoys the results of the amount of time/energy i have put into myself >_< having a less then supportive family, and friends that don't quite comprehend what I'm doing just means i am the only one that enjoys my results, which is fine and the reason I'm doing it anyways but its nice to have someone else enjoy it as well =D
Unicycling.... yeah i have gotten pretty good at it, free mounting, riding, turning, its all becoming easy =D
-
I have caught a cold.. it appears my ladie friend keeping me up late has caught unto me.. I Did a super short 2 hour workout, got an insane new personal best of 305 lbs dips, and just did some through stretching and more low weight high rep. My cold is not death or anything just the slightest sore throat and a touch of light headedness, so working out was no big deal even for my hand stand push ups, hung out with the girl after and just had a good night!
-
what a morning! I did not hit any huge numbers but i had one hell of a workout! I had a cool warm up on the flat bench, then killed 295 lb dips and almost cause several people to injure themselves doing there cardio.... apparently people staring while on an olyptical can be a dangerous thing... I had a few people talk to me about my different workouts and were thoroughly impressed by my core strength and muscle control. Did a stupid number of wide arm chin ups, closed handed push ups, hand stand push ups. I did legs today and it has been a while so i didn't push for anything crazy, but i got 5 reps 6 plates + sled, and i hit 50 lb dumb bell bicep curls today, got 4 each side, and my biceps felt like they were going to EXPLODE! i was LOVING IT.
-
I have sort of started my vacation, i have to help with a service call this afternoon so i got a very good morning workout in, I wore my new pink shirt and it seemed to be quite the hit, if i seen correctly i was in at least 50 different conversations, and had people bluntly staring at me the entire time i was there (3 hours). I was pretty tight when i got there but with a good stretch and a good warm up things starting going very well, killed all my usual work outs, 50 lb dumb bell bicep curls again with no pain! Had some fantastic chin ups and my shoulders are really starting to feel good again!
It is kind of concerning some peoples attitude.. If you have seen my posts over the last few months on here i started at 35 lb dips (added weight) and i have worked myself unto 165 lb dips. I do understand that without a video of me doing it, it does seem unlikely but to bluntly be told by someone i would not know to trip over on the street that i can't... This is the reason people NEVER reach there goals and basically stop living... "Can't" is a word i have tried to remove from my vocabulary because its very negative and just depressing... so i have replaced it with "yet". We are started small and we all started weak and dreamed of benching the biggest dumb bells on the rack and pumping more then the guy beside us but if you "can't" then you won't.. I am not surprised just disappointed in this attitude and i correct people as often as i can!
-
I have been on holidays so i have been going to the gym at weird times, like early morning and afternoon, and there is some weird people there... My pink shirt has been quite a hit! I had some good numbers todays and hit what iw anted to, everything feels like its healing and its rebounding rather well. I did some dips with my girlfriend hanging on my back... it was weird, the dip rack is only so big and with all the weight high on your body and on your back its trying to pull you over but i still got 3 reps, she's pretty close to my weight. I did a few push ups with her on my back, and just had some fun with my workouts, i had her take a photo of my big dip @ 295 combined weight and will post it when i get it, it shows my depth pretty clearly =D
AMAZING night on the uni!

Did not have time to update this yesterday, took the girlfriend to the winona peach festival yesterday right after the gym, and it was a pretty awesome time! Good workout, my shoulder is really starting to heal nicely, its much less crunchy, stretching much better, and i did my whole work out with out putting anything on it.
