I'm pretty sore today. Switching from an HIT style workout with 1 or 2 sets per body part - to 6 sets made a big difference in my soreness....We'll see if the weights keep going up

I talk on the phone w/ 3 - 4 women during the week..and have a 'friend' come from Denver once in a while to hang out... y'all have nothing to worry about me for.... I'm just notreally ready to get back with any particular girl...and do't really go for the one night stands...so I flirt, then go home alone...most of the time. |

It does suck getting old although at almost 35 - I still got moves Actually I'm probably alot better now than I was when I was 18, since I'm 40lbs heavier, stronger and "wiser" |

Playing football is definitely "a workout". Weights and the treadmill cannot prepare you like playing. They are two different animals.

Maybe this year we can hook up for a Salmon fishing weekend and load our freezers with lots of great protein and omega 3's.

06 will be a great year

One or two guys are pretty good.

Thanks. I gone as high as 90 (for 3) but that was about a year ago. I'm slowly working my way back.
