Not sure about that up past horizontal part, though. OUCH!

No, it won't hurt. It's natural.

Just try'em for a month and see how much better your lower back will feel!

Big storm just missed, power off 14 hours, nice and cool 77f and nice rain we need so bad.

Had the Hockey playoff game on the Laptop during workout, this has been a great, close and fun to watch playoff's.

I got ape arms today, feel like they are dragging the ground.

I had a great Machine workout today after a nice pipe warm-up. I feel good about what I did and tomorrow is a FULL Yoga workout.

Life's great enjoy

Well crap, I let myself get out of control. The 10 pounds I lost I found.
This old man easy life style just doesn’t get it. I reinstalled my Weightware and CycliStats software and found out I am a fat slob. The machine workout just doesn’t get it so back to the free weights tomorrow.
I cycled hard today for just 10 miles. RPM’s 68, MPH 11.8 and where I had to work to get my heart rate up to 130bpm 3 months ago today I had to work to get it down to 130 (it wanted to stay at 140)
I weight 236 today and I will be down to 128 on November 18th. I have to either burn or not eat 500 calories a day.
My arm is down from 18” to 15” and waists we won’t talk about, calf are 18 and very cut, neck is 18 also.
I will be a good boy and do right from today on!

Are you in any danger from the typhoon?

Only if something falls on my head.

No, I'm way in land, I have a genarator (30 gal. gas) and 25 gal's of fresh water, a months food and a hand pump well. A 4x4 pickup full of gas.

And we are 32 feet above Sea Level.

I did get him to start re-racking his weights by shaming him!

One in every gym? Glad he's at least re-racking his weights.

I have a few gym pet peeves and that's definitely on the list.

Hope your legs and feet are giving you some relief.

Fixing to take a World Class Nap with my iPod and feet up.

Got the trembles in the shoulders today. Did a nice slow workout and I can feel it.
One hour fifteen minutes and out the door. Music was 100 workout tunes and I played the Air Drums all over the gym. Filipinos just hawk at the Big American. (I drive’em nuts)

Damn Wednesday,
Got in the gym, put Sousa on my iPod and got ready for a great workout. Went in the open area did my pipe stretch then bent over to touch my toes and went right to my knees. I’m Stoned Again. I did some of my Yoga but could not work it out so I came home.
Took three Ibuprofens and sure will be glad when it feels better. I had 9 kidney Stones two years ago and got them dissolved and have been feeling good but I knew I was fixing to have another.
I take something called “Sambong”; it’s made from the Sambong tree and works great to dissolve the stones. The trouble is that ones you have kidney stones they always come back never will forget my first one.
Also, with my new mindset I think I can make myself workout at home, then I don’t have to put up with crap all over the gym. So I will workout at home and let them keep their mess.

Morning Folks,
Tried a few twist and pulls and I think it’s best if I just wait until Monday before I try a workout.

Feel a little better but I do know where the area is. I’ll just take it very easy for the next few days.
