***Bar Story***

Ok..there I was.....

I was really busy lastnight...I was pretty much the only bouncer on the top floor lastnight. (usually have at least 3) really annoying.
We do not allow ball caps in the club., Has proven to be too much a pain in the ass, so we just ban them.
I walked up to a guy that had put his back on. I asked him to remove it. he did. I walk back past not 5 minutes later and saw him wearing it again. I went and got a bartender to 'cover' me if he got stupid, then walked up to him and said:
"ok, let's go. You are out of here."
He tried to look non-chalantly at me and picked up his drink. I took it from him, firmly planted it back on the table and said: "Now".
he gave me no problems. After I got him out the door, he turned to me and said:
I write for a newspaper. I am gonna write this club a bad review"
My response:
"Go ahead and do that. Now, when you are writing it, be sure to include how we enforce the dress code, sir. Have a good night."

It was probably funnier if u were there....

Good story! I'm betting he's not a writer, just trying to make you nervous.

Had to dead weight a VERY drunk guy out last night. He was only 5'6", but he was as round as he was tall. He was a mute, so could not communicate w/ him either. The other bouncer was pretty much only leading him through the crowd by the arm...where I had to bear the brunt of this 200+lb person...fallinginto me..and bracing so I wouldn't fall into anybody else. That gets u tired...plus, he was cranking on my arm w/ tendonitis...so that was a bit sore too.
Let's see: Got hit on by 2 big girls and one freaky looking one...oh..and groped as well.
Oh...did get 'forced' onto the dance floor and then surrounded by 4 hot women...so that kind of balanced out the other...

Thanks! I will most likely add them back in as routine or every other workout:
1 week: close grip press, other exercises
next: dips, other exercises

I had to walk off and get back to work..whenever I stop paying attention to the floor..is when something happens. I think one of them gave me a 'pat' on the ass as I left as well...
sometimes....its good being me...

Wait till i get my 'handles' removed....

I bounced a few times for a mexican place when they had a huge Cinco de Mayo party in an outdoor tent. The entrance the first night was about 20 feet across, and they expected me to catch everyone. The second night I got there early and roped it off to about 5 feet. Made life much easier.

This was back when I was near my max, so I'm suprised I was able to stay on my feet all night. My sister was a bartender there at the time, and she heard all kinds of stories about how I was a bouncer for the strip clubs on the weekends, that kind of thing.

Anyway, despite being a disgusting slob at that point, I still got decent action from a couple of very hot, very drunk chicks. I can only imagine the offers you get on a regular basis. Perks of the job, right?

7 November, 05:
Chest:
Incline BB Bench Press:
135*15, 185*10, 225*5, 225*4, 225*4, 225*4, 225*3

DB Bench Press:
80*10, 100*5, 100*5***, 100*4

Decline DB Bench:
4*80*10

Standing Low Cable Flyes:
2*50*10

Standing Cable FLyes:
2*50*10

BB Curl:
2*65*10

*** After this set, I just held them in place at about 70% lockout for about 10 seconds

**Got off to a shitty start. I couldn't get any good reps from my 225 Inc. BP. So, I just added sets to get the desired reps out of it.
DB Press...I must have been able to get into the 'zone' for that one! Maybe it's the fact that I know I cant get stuck under a DB and not as concerned? (for lack of better word)
Kinda funny: after I put down my 1st set w/ the 100's, I got up to get a drink from the fountain. There were 2 cute girls a couple benches down..and I heard them say something about the weight. I got back to my bench..and the REALLY cute one says: :Hey...ow about lifting some weight! (big smile) I said something...probably stupid...being a bouncer in a bar..and I still don't have 'game'...
We smiled, and went back to work out. I did my last set a few minutes later, and before I picked up the weigts to put them back, I asked her if she 'wanted in on this'. She said she was trying to cut back. She looked at the weight..then said that that weighed just a little more than what she did....that I could easily bench her if she layed across my hands.
Why, yes I could....
Game up..that was it...ran out of juice....
Besides..I do believe she was a bit TOO young....DB could have had a chance w/ her though...

But, it made me feel good.

I tried to do curls, but the tendonitis was starting to act up, so I quit. Gotta build that back up slowly.


**ok...checked teh gym scale. it says I am 206. The scale @ the Dr's office last Tuesdaysaid I weighed 213. (I prefer the gym scale) but wonder which is which? The PA @ the office said theirs was accurate, but I do not feel 213....hhmmm...

I am back in creatine, so I gotta make sure I am pounding water again...

Good w/o, Burner. Hey, it's not about scoring the young chicks, it's about getting their attention, right?
