ohhh IT, sounds like your saying we need pix now. to compare and see how much you need to improve yet to try to beat me

and yeah I know I set myself up for that one lmao

TCD I'll have to try that someday, but while I'm making gains I'll stick with what i'm doin.


Posted by: dvlmn666

well finished the day with 60 minutes eliptical again tonight


Posted by: kuso

I don`t know how you do that thing for 60 min.......

What kinda level have you got it set at?


Posted by: dvlmn666

i change the course every day, but set the resistance to 8 gonna have to move up to 9 soon.

tonight i did hill crosstraining. kicked my a$$ lol


Posted by: kuso

Whats the max on yours?? I got a feeling mine only goes up to 12, shows how ofter I use it :o


Posted by: dvlmn666

I've never bothered to check. lol, but I'll check tomorrow or saturday. I'm thinking about doing the stairmaster tomorrow to mix it up a bit more. Even though that thing kicks my ass worse than the precor does.

I LOVE that machine. Don't have 'em at the 'smells like bad feet' gym but at the all pink and girly one they did. I'd get on that thing for an hour. I even bought a tempo meater and recorded 60 minutes of song... each having to do with the level I was on... flat was fu*()&*( fast and inclined was slower... it was GREAT!

Now, I have that flippin x-robics maching.. it no one else will touch it.. and it kicks my ass (in making it smaller) even more than the Ep did!


Posted by: kuso



Sorry bud, it was just outta curiosity thats all.

Ah shyt.....forgot my eggs were boiling...............they`ve boild dry

And NO...eggs is not what I call my balls


Posted by: dvlmn666

damn sonsunni, you really got into it. I just have about 8 cd's recorded onto mine. and then put it on random. And go as fast as possible all the time with a goal of how many calories I want to burn in that hour

lmao@kuso


Posted by: dvlmn666

grr talk about a crappy weeek alarm didn't go off this morning. Oh well, I'll still go do cardio tonight.


Posted by: irontime

Uh ya, the alarm didn't go off, I use that excuse too


Posted by: dvlmn666

lmao, sounds like an excuse but I was late to work to so there ya have proof.

How was the party? And I'm gonna go in and do cardio tonight if it kills me.

Posted by: irontime

You just gave me an idea buddy. Since they have 'LMFAO' and other things why not have 'KMOA' for Kicking my own ass.
Just a thought I had and wanted to share before I lost it.


Posted by: dvlmn666

Posted by: Miss LeDix

Posted by: dvlmn666

thank you, thank you

my balance sucked today though lol, almost fell over once. lmao


Posted by: irontime

lmao, nah we'd both have been laughing. I suck at those, but they do kick ass

well went to see Incubus tonight. wiht my cousins son and one of his friends. For it not really being my type of music they put on a great show, I have to admit.

frickin crowd surfer landed on the back of my neck though. Hurts like hell, but hopefully it'll be better tomorrow morning. lol he also paid the price. cousins kid said he was about 3 feet in the air when i threw the fuker.


Posted by: nikegurl

how's the neck? hope it's one of those hurt for the moment things only.

so tell me....when you do 60 minutes on the machine do you start to hate by minute #8 or so?


Posted by: dvlmn666

It's really sore today mostly stiff though, so probably just a bad sprain.

I'm gonna try to go do cardio tonight. If it feels good I'll lift tomorrow. Wed's are my day off from lifting so that worked out fairly well, I know there is no way I could have done doing back or shoulders this morning.

wow you last til minute 8? after usually the first 5, I start counting down til the finish. that or start to concentrate on the music and watching the Close Captioning on the TV's. Trying to forget that how boring and lame the cardio is.

I had to spend the money and get a MP3 player though. I've tried doing the cardio without it a few times. And usually just end up stopping I can't stand it without music.

I've found some with reasonable prices out here lately.


Posted by: irontime

Sorry to hear 'bout your neck bro, at least you got some revenge on the asshole. You still should have hit him though
Make sure to take it easy on it, don't want to screw it up anymore.


Posted by: dvlmn666

Yeah I shoulda, but figured it'd give Tracy a heart attach and make her not want to keep going to concerts with Peter lmao

well didn't go work out last night or this morning, but the good news it that it's no were near as stiff this morning. So by monday morning I should be 100% and back hitting the weights hard again.

Might even go hit them some over the weekend, the hotel they set me up with has a cheezy little weight room. But might just decide to go get a quick workout in one morning.

yes i'm addicted to the gym, what can I say. lol


Posted by: irontime

You can say that you are addicted to the gym.
It never hurts to take a weekend off and heal up anyways, hope you have fun adn tell us some good stories when you get back


Posted by: Miss LeDix

dvlmn...that's one addiction that's not a bad thing!


Posted by: dvlmn666

your right Miss L.

Yeah IT, like I said I might lol. It'll be an interesting weekend that's for sure. Goin out with my ex-gf and her friends fri night. We've actually ended up being good freinds now, but should be interesting since this will be the first time doing stuff since we broke up a couple years ago.

I'll fill ya in on details of the weekend when I get back.


Posted by: nikegurl

all the details? (or just some?)

seriously - have a great weekend and hope your neck is ok!


Posted by: dvlmn666

Originally posted by nikegurl

how many details do you want? lol

thanks, I think it will be. Just got like a compression strain. It's about 80% better from yesterday. I could probably have gone and worked out this morning but decided it would be better to play it safe.


Posted by: Miss LeDix

Thanks for saying bye to me in my journal. Have a great time!

I want all the (non-pornal) details!


Posted by: dvlmn666

hahah, no prob. have a great weekend.


Posted by: irontime

That's pretty smart playing it safe. No point taking the chance and being out longer.

Should be interesting being with the ex. I haven't seen mine for over 2 years but I'm going to be in her town not next year but the year after that to finish up college. By then I will have gone through a major transformation. It should be interesting.

Anyways give us all the details, pornal included, and have a great time pal


Posted by: dvlmn666

i'm backkkkkk. The trip was cool, we both agreed we were better off as freinds.

and hit the gym again today.

back:
3 Sets Assisted Pullups
3 sets Hamer Iso Behind the Neck Pulldowns
3 sets Cybex Pulldown Machine
3 sets Hammer Iso High Row
3 sets Machine Rows
3 sets Dumbell Rows

Abs:
4 sets Ab Bench 25,25,25, 25

2 sets Leg Raises with extra raise 15, 15

overslept so no cardio.

oh yeah I finally got my tatoo I'll take a pic tonight


Posted by: irontime

Friends can have benefits with each other too ya know
It's cool that you are able to still be friends with her though. And congrats on getting a tattoo bud They are pretty cool to have, so what is it?


Posted by: dvlmn666

yes and we both enjoyed the "benefits" this weekend.

the tat is the tribal that slipknot uses, on my calf. The guy who did it has done some work on the guys from Slayer, everybody who's seen it so far says they are impressed at how clean he got all the detail on the points of it. It's in black, but I attached the red version of it here. But I'll take a pic tonight of it.

I'm going to have a buddy draw up a either tribal or celtic armband for me for next time.


Posted by: irontime

Groovy That is a cool tattoo dude, nice choice. It's one of those things that you will love for a long time, they are kind of addicting eh? You already want another one, don't you?


Posted by: dvlmn666

hell yeah they are addicting, but I knew that already. As I was walking out I knew I was gonna get an armband next. Might be a year or so because I want something origional. I'm going to go to the same place again next time. They are super clean and very professional.

I've wanted this one for almost 3 yrs now, but just kept waiting for some weird reason, not really sure. But saturday went down to mission beach, same shop were I got my tongue pierced and the dude had time so I said ok let's do it.

45 minutes later walked out with it.

Funny part is everybody when they talked to me about tatoo's they always said "do you have any yet?" like they all knew eventually I'd be getting some.


Posted by: Miss LeDix

Hi dvlmn, welcome back!

Glad you had fun this weekend. Is this your first tatoo? Did it hurt? Was he impressed by all the muscle on your calf?


Posted by: irontime

Good show old chap!


Posted by: dvlmn666

lol, thanks miss ledix It didn't really hurt only the top little corner stung a bit. Other than that was no prob at all.

yeah it was my first. It took me forget to finally get it done. I've known this was the one I wanted for a long time already but just kept procrastinating instead of just doing it.

now it's done


Posted by: dvlmn666

Originally posted by irontime

Hey now, were do you get off callin me old. lmao


Posted by: irontime

Sorry, OLDER chap
Great looking tat buddy Very nice choice.


Posted by: dvlmn666

lmao, thanks. Once it's all healed I'll put up a new pic

ok today

Legs:

8 sets Leg Presses
6 sets Leg Extensions

didn't do calves gonna wait a week or so til the tat is done healing

cardio:

15 minutes bike


Posted by: irontime

I had the same problem with mine, I babied the thing and didn't want anything at all to touch it, kinda put a damper on all exercises lying down but it was worth it


Posted by: dvlmn666

yeah I'm so protective of it now. lmao wearing shorts to work every day til it's healed even. lol

they don't really like it but oh well. lol


Posted by: Scorpio Gurl

Hey Dvlmn

Thanks, I've wanted this design for a long time and finally got it.

Cool about your tongue ring good choice


Posted by: Eggs

Hey dvlmn, just wanted to drop by and say that the tat looks great. Definitely a cool pattern.

Neck feeling better?

Eggs


Posted by: kuso

Another "nice tat" post here looks great!!

Does the design have any particular meaning?


Posted by: irontime

It sure does, from now on that design means Kuso is a little bitch who takes it up the rear


Posted by: dvlmn666

Ok abs aren't were I wanted them, actually think they were better last week. But this is a good start for the summer. Dont' forget IT, it's whoever makes the most improvement over the summer for the next case .


Posted by: dvlmn666

IT, so whatcha think. Neither of us have a 6 pack, but I think we've both made good progress. This was fun.

Thanks, I like it. Just almost over protective of it right now. The neck is alot better, I think it was just like a compression sprain. But no lasting problems. Started back at the gym on monday and no problems. But I'll watch it for chest and shoulders on thurs and fri.

Thanks for askin


Posted by: dvlmn666

lmao@it&kuso

nah no meaning, just a tribal that slipknot uses all the time. But I've always liked it just for the design.

I'm amazed at how many compliments I got on it from people at work.


Posted by: Fitgirl70

What is the bet you guys? Any money riding on it?
Sounds good though....I love your new tat dvlmn!! I wish the pic had come out better and you could see my domino on my @$$, but you can't really tell by the pic.....I'll be sure to take a better pic of it later this week for ya.


Posted by: dvlmn666

no money, just a case of beer to the winner. This time was whoever could get the best improvement on getting abs to show. then over the summer for another case it's whoever makes the most improvemnt.

cool yeah lemme see your tat **efg**.


Posted by: Fitgirl70

go to my journal


Posted by: irontime

Definitely starting to show up bud
This could be a toughy.


Posted by: irontime

We could go to a judges decision?


Posted by: dvlmn666

lol, we'll use judges after the summer one. This I'd be alright with considering it a tie. after all we both kinda decided to relax a bit this last week.

hell if i were you I'd have been partying to. Your done with the year of college.


Posted by: irontime

Alright then bud I'd like to give you a congratulations for making the improvements you did, it was definitely fun and we will have to make this an ongoing thing.

I did have a blast last weekend so it was worth blowing off the stomach. But you are so dead in September


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Can I be a judge? Please? Huh, huh? Please? Can I be a judge? Can I? Can I?


Posted by: dvlmn666

Should we let her? I say sure gimme your opinion. But if it counts will be if IT agrees


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Ooohhh....this is hard! I don't know which way to go. I could only stare at both of your pics for just a brief period......any longer and I'd be running to the ladies room!!!


Posted by: dvlmn666

lol, take your time cutie

Your the only volunteer so far


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Well, I'm going to have to see more flesh.....Uhhh, I mean pictures. Yeah pictures wheww....that was close


Posted by: irontime

lol Thanx fitgirl, I have a long hard summer ahead of me though. I'm not even close to where I want to be.

You sicko And i thought I was bad


Posted by: Fitgirl70

sicko??? Hey buddy, I'm here all alone and have been without
for 5 days AND have 3 more days before my husband comes home.....I'm feeling a little deprived right now


Posted by: nikegurl

Fitgirl (by her own honest admission) is not thinking clearly.

I will take over judging duties until her hubby returns and then she can take over again.

Deal?


Posted by: irontime

Well I haven't been without for as long as you, but I am going to be moving home for the summer and that means I will be living with mommy and daddy So that pretty much means a summer of abstinence for IT


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Hmmm, now now NG....let's think about this for a minute shall we? You can be judge but I must have a look at the pics and be able to give you my opinion and we must agree together in order to form a more perfect decision.

Deal?


Posted by: dvlmn666

OH man dude, I'm sorry lol

ok wohooo we have 2 judges now.

sorry Fitgirl, I don't take pix at work so you'll have to judge on what we have.


Posted by: irontime

I can't get anymore pics either.
Just the oldies; http://ironmagazineforums.com/showth...&threadid=5600


mmmmmm, two hot judges, this could be cool


Posted by: nikegurl

Fitgirl has final say. I'll be the alternate.

Otherwise known as "the voice of reason"

dvlmn - perhaps you should go home at lunch? (to take pix)


Posted by: dvlmn666

sorry no lunch for me today. so only have the old ones. Maybe tonight I'll try to take a few more.

yep IT two cuties as judges.


Posted by: Miss LeDix

dvlmn...I'm confused. I saw it's pics in his journal..but where are yours?


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Hey MissL.....you still here? Me too. But I'm at home now.


Posted by: dvlmn666

Fitgirl, I'm around..doing this and that...


Posted by: dvlmn666

Posted by: Fitgirl70

After taking a gander at all pic`s involved....and Fitbabes and Miss P`s as well...well, just for referece sake :o .........I hearby order that the two of you go out tonight, buy a case of your favourite beer....and proceed to drink it.

Congrats guy`s....you both kicked ass, but it really is to hard to tell which one was a clear winner, you guy`s are so close!! ( any closer and I`d be calling the fag police )


Posted by: dvlmn666

thanks kuso, beer will have to wait for the weekend. lol, I have to go into the gym tomorrow morning at 5:30 lol

yeah I think we both improved. Just wait til after the summer. see which of us improves the most again. That's for the next case.


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Hey dvlmn, how are you this morning? Hope the contest goes okay. I can't wait until the pics come in after summer.

Posted by: dvlmn666

thanks, and thanks for checkin out my journal. It's become boring hardly anybody comes here anymore.

Well I've had a bout with being lazy lately. The vacation and then then all the going from building to building with the company splitting has just taken it's toll on me. So now i feel lazy, but tonight gonna go do cardio and hopefully that'll help me get outa this rut.

Don't make me come down there and bitchslap you! It's time to get off your duff there bud... if you're going to be sportin' next to blondie at the ski club, you'd best be making me look good... that's if you want me to introduce you to the ladies!

Yup, I'm chekin' up on you! You should do that challange Albob's got going. (I'm pretty sure it's Albob)


Posted by: nikegurl

listen to Sosunni!

planning the new tat yet?

as for cardio.....nevermind. oh, wait! that's my issue not yours. rock on.


Posted by: dvlmn666

hhah yeah sonsunni, better keep me in line then. And sounds like that was a challenge, and if that's the case I'm in.

But yeah I'm getting back into it. the lifting has been good. Just gotta get the cardio kicked up again. Didn't go this morning because I had the worst headache, but feel good now so goin tonight.

I'll have to check albob's little challenge. Before they never made up there mind as to what it was gonna be, so got tired of reading lol But hey if your a prize, i'm in **efg**

N-G, I've been watchin, your starting to do your cardio. just dont' forget, i'm watchin

Next tat is gonna be an armband. But need to find a tribal that I like. I won't do flash offa the wall so it makes it harder to decide. This one I knew I wanted for almost 2 yrs before I got it. So who knows when I'll get the next one. And they are right, they are addicting.


Posted by: nikegurl

me too! i have one now that was flash off the wall (for shame)
that was 6 years ago. still planning the next one. changed my mind so many times. no plan at all now. i just know i want one and it can't be flash this time. i don't hate the first one but i should have done better!

i think the next one will be the last so i need to get it just right. you'll know when it's time and when you've got the right one!


Posted by: dvlmn666

yeah N-G that's how I feel about this one. I'd changed from getting it on my shoulder, to my tri, to my back. But then I was in there to see how much it'd cost and knew it would be right on my calf.

flash is cool sometimes, i wanna see yours. were's it at? what's it of?

I'll have to check albob's little challenge. Before they never made up there mind as to what it was gonna be, so got tired of reading lol But hey if your a prize, i'm in **efg**
Yea, that's what I'm hearing.. .. I'm gonna try and step mine up a bit.. but more with the eating thing and maybe another 20-30 cardio. Just for the hell of it. See how good I can get, cha know?


Posted by: dvlmn666

Oh Yeah, N-G those ISSA M3 Protein shakes I'd said I was going to try are really good. It's a little expensive though. But also get 50g of protein/serving. And it has 3 types of protein in it.

I'm probably gonna stick with it while I'm taking this 1-AD and trying to cut at the same time. I'm trying to keep growing while at the same time cutting. You know the trick trying to have my cake and eat it to. Been working so far, but with this 1-AD I've noticed I have to take in more protein. But already gaining on all my lifts and this is only the second week taking it.

But the new protein drink I like. and really good with strawberries.

sonsunni, just for the hell of it sounds like what I normally do

Posted by: nikegurl

how's the shoulder doing? bother you when you do chest or after? i'm thinking no....you do a lot of sets for chest and probably wouldn't make it if it hurt too much!

tat healed? since i'm messing up you thread again with more tat questions...i'll keep going.

i got mine 7 years ago. healed great and colors look bright still. they had me put neosporin on it for awhile when it was healing. (days - maybe a week not sure now). boy did i mess up a lot of clothes. but it healed great.

last year bf got one of his redone and they had him take bandage off same day and not put anything on it. said better not to keep it moist all the time for healing. (my way is old fashioned). curious - what did they tell you to do with yours? i think mine healed better keeping the ointment going for awhile. (can you tell i'm prepping for my next one?)

and your cardio...amazing. 'nuff said on THAT topic!


Posted by: dvlmn666

Shoulder has it's days. It's weird but never a total pain, just a numbing pain were it gets to a point were it hurts to move it. Then about 20 minutes later it's fine. **shrug** I've had it for so long that I just know when it's to the point were I have to stop. That's why some weeks I only do one incline exercises.

And don't worry you can ask whatever you want, I'm glad you stoped in

the tat is good, I still put lotion on it in the morning even though I don't have to. But no tenderness or anything.

His instructions were:
1. to uncover it after 2 hrs, and then leave it uncovered
2. Put neosporin on it for 1 week afterwards, 3-4 times a day or whenever it soaked in or was dry. (i wore shorts to work for a week so didn't ruin any clothes )
3. 1 Week of Lotion 3-4 times a day or whenever dry.
4. for 3 weeks, no sun, bathes, or swimming

maybe his was because it was a touchup. only reason I can think of. When you find the design for your next one I want to see

lol thanks on the cardio, I try, but have changed it a bit. I'm goin to do cardio on tues night, wed morning, and then sat and sunday. I've noticed when I go hard on the cardio on the same day as lifting, I hit failure on the weights way before I do without the cardio.

Oh well just gonna have to keep the diet clean, and it'll take alittle while longer to get cut.


Posted by: nikegurl

those instructions were like mine and i had no problems at all. i like. i wish there were a website to browse tat designs. i know there are places with galleries and all but so hard to see and not like you can search for exactly what you want. probably have to go look at some flash and then modify but i don't want to go in 'til i'm ready.

think i'll wait 'til end of summer. sort of my reward for the diet etc. and also b/c of the no sun/swim thing.

glad your shoulder is doing basically ok!


Posted by: dvlmn666

yeah it's hard to find a design you like. I just saw this one and knew it'd be the one I got. then it took me almost 2 years to finally get it. lol

that or if you know somebody who's good at drawing that would be something totally origional.

sounds like an awesome reward. even more motivation for ya

thanks about the shoulder. I'll just keep workin with it, it does keep getting stronger though so hopefully eventually I'll train out of it.

Posted by: Burner02

Hey dvlmn-
You are in San Jose?
Isn't more of short haired techie area? Probably get mucho girls falling all over you in someplace like Seattle....

I went to the Air Force base where I work to get my hair cut short for motorcyle season. (I HATE helmet head!)
I told the girl EXACTLY what I wanted...and she fuqed it up. Now I've got a haircut that looks like Burt's from Sesame Street! Damn! Now I am going to have to wear a frigin hat...I am going to a paintball tournament next month...think I will just shave it all off...be done with it..

Looking like you are making progress, bud-
keep it up!


Posted by: dvlmn666

lol yeah burner i know the feeling. That was one of the reasons I started to grow my hair out. lol

but yeah, unfortunately out here they figure if you have long hair your a hippy. and I'm the furthest you can get from that lol.


Posted by: dvlmn666

I hurt went to see Down last night, and well I was one of the smallest guys in the pit. It was awesome and for some reason I had a bunch of people following me through it lol. But I'm paying for it today though.

But I do have to say definately if you get the chance go see these guys. They played for three and a half hours non stop.

Needless to say I didn't make it to the gym this morning But had a hell of a workout last night at the concert


Posted by: dvlmn666

Well still hurts to move so took another day away from the gym. I figured another day or two and it should go away. But I hate being black and blue. well that and having it hurt to roll over when i'm sleeping.

But the concert was fun. But I need to promise myself for my own good that I won't do this again.


Posted by: irontime

Hey at least you had fun doing it. I ended up tearing a ligament in my chest last week and will be out of weights for damn near a month. Oh well, I'm getting more cardio in now so I'll be sure to win the bet this round


Posted by: Miss LeDix

Mosh pit dangerous, it can be!


Posted by: dvlmn666

yes MissL can be and this one was.

IT dude your still gonna lose. Even though i've missed a few days, I'm still gonna be bigger and have that 6pack before you get back.

sorry to hear about your injury though dude. that had to have sucked.


Posted by: dvlmn666

well good news. I can actually run up the stairs at my place without feeling like my insides are going to break. Which means I'm going to go do cardio tonight. and tomorrow is back day.

Next time I think about goin in the pit at any band that Phil is the singer for somebody please kick my ass first. That had to have been the stupidest thing I've done in recent memmory. It was fun but I should have just gone up front. Less injuries that way lol.

But it's time to get down to business. I have a little challenge to win here. **efg**

Sorry to hear that dude, I'm still workin on getting mine to show. But the diet and workouts are coming along.

Just stick with it, and take the diet tips you find on here, there are so many of them, but the key is to find one that you can follow and live with. And before long you'll have some.

Thanks, I really couldn't tell until I actually did that before and after thing for the contest. I've been slacking so bad on my diet in terms of being strict. So after seeing that now I'm dead set on getting strict on the diet and see how far I can take this.
