Agree with Jodi all 8-10, i think you can afford to do 5 sets on leg press and 4 extensions.
Your not doing squats because of your back right??
Try these:

You trying to kill me here Ris? I'll try them on Thursday. Thanks



I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

Ah yes sissy squats. Those I have never done myself.

The new journal will start Feb 1. Then I'll have exactly 12 weeks till the comp. Do you know the last track from Matrix Revolutions? I've been thinking about that for my song.

Need more hammie work!! I'll try and take pics of how i do the dives.... its a bit easier than the Gif i showed you b4.
Use your lat pulldown mach, kneel on the seat and hook your feet under the knee supports, when you dive out you can catch yourself before you hit the floor with your hands, then push off with your hands and contract hammies hard to do "most" of the work

Your going in a comp?? when did you say that??

Overall, since 12th grade. I had 2 hernia operations and was a missionary, so I was out of the gym during prob the best time. Then I lost 100 lbs and got back in the gym.

Just wanted to see how you were doing, good luck at your comp, I think that's great

No school or Work today?



Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

Iain- I've got lab at 1 till 4. Normally I'd have another lab then from 7pm -10:30, but the teacher dropped the class, so they are looking for a new teacher I really liked that teacher, have had her in other classes. But at least I get the night off

Compliments are fuel for energy!

Surgery is Feb 9th. January 27th I go in to fill some paper work out. I have no idea what I'm going to sign or why I cannot fill it out the day of surgery.

Your going to sign consent forms for the sedation and procedure. They'll want to talk to you about the surgery more and give you some teaching then rather than on your surgery day because you won't be listening on your surgery day. Jan 27 is your chance to ask questions because Feb 9th will be a whirlwind for you. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers for that!!
