shiznit2169 · 08-18-2005, 07:30 PM

thanks guys

funk, i'm going to RIT (rochester institute of technology) and im having a tough time deciding what i want to do for my major. I'm debating between computer science/engineering, business, exercise science and physiology, and criminal justice. That's a lot, i know.

Too bad RIT is too far from manhattan. Rochester is in nothern New York, near Buffalo. It would have been cool to meet u and train but maybe in the future i'll drive down or take a train or something.

Rocco32 · 08-18-2005, 07:34 PM

Good luck buddy. Word of advice, never take criminal justice

how come? I'm not looking to be a cop or something, but focus more on medical science and computers because i'm good with computers so i'd like to work on something involving computers.

Care to tell me why? Be honest.

Seanp156 · 08-18-2005, 07:47 PM

Heh, my brother in law took that for a while and it's completely useless to him now. I forget if he actual got his degree in it, or just took it for 1-2 years then decided it wasn't for him.

Rocco32 · 08-18-2005, 07:51 PM

Because any job where you would actually use a criminal justice degree...they train you themselves. That degree means crap out in the workplace. Stick with medical science or computers

Pylon · 08-18-2005, 08:00 PM

Have a great trip Shiz!

shiznit2169 · 08-21-2005, 09:19 AM

hey guys hows it going. College is a blast so far and the gym is huge. It has everything but i have been to busy lately socializing and having all these tests and meetings. Everyone here is cool and there is a kid from atlanta georgia who's just like us and brought his own protein shakes and oatmeal. It's funny that both of us just walk around with a gallon of water in our hand. Finally got a training partner. I'll be back in the gym in a few days.

reg56 · 08-21-2005, 05:28 PM

Glad to hear everything's going good Rich.

**P-funk** · 08-21-2005, 05:31 PM

that is great man, enjoy it! It is nice to have a training partner and someone to share interests like helth and fitness with in college. It helps to keep you out of trouble.

shiznit2169 · 08-21-2005, 06:55 PM

just got in a quick workout today. My partner and i only had like 20 mins before a meeting so we lifted in a very old gym that was just awful. The new gym doesnt open until next week so i did a variety of compound exercises just to get my body back into it.

Pylon · 08-22-2005, 05:20 AM

You'll love college. You know how they say there's a time and a place for everything? Well, college is it.

I missed it, so where are you going, and did you pick a major yet?

Good lookin w/o there Brother!!! Keep it up!!!

Rocco32 · 08-25-2005, 05:04 AM

Great w/o!! How's everything going?

Pylon · 08-25-2005, 08:28 AM

Nice work, Shiz. Hey, do whatcha gotta, right? Sometimes the old gyms are the best!

shiznit2169 · 08-25-2005, 09:46 AM

thanks guys, everything is going well. Sorry for not posting in your journals because my free time has cut in half.

Density Work - RI = 20 SECONDS

Front Squat

Leg Curls
75/8,8,8,8,6

Calf Raises

none.

Ok workout. I am lagging behind due to inconsistancy and no calf work but i got some nice quad and ham work.

Seanp156 · 08-25-2005, 10:55 PM

For Calf Raises, if there's nothing else you could use just do them holding DB's or a BB with weight... I sometimes do that just for variation.

How's the college thing going? I just moved a lot of my stuff in today, but I'm not staying there until Saturday night when I move my computer and other stuff in. Seems like it's gonna be weird...

ya it's weird at first but you'll get used to it. Everyone is very nice and you're gonna be busy going out and socializing plus the classes and shit. Hell, i am only getting 4 hours of sleep every night. I gotta pick up the slack.

shiznit2169 · 08-27-2005, 05:11 PM

both gyms were closed today, couldnt workout. Really pissed.

But on the bright side, new gym opens up tomorrow.

	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...
