Good morning dg, Burner.
 Hope you both had a great Christmas. I did,but ugh... I'm already sick of food! Had the big turkey dinner at my brothers place yesterday - it was awesome! Today it's my turn to cook the turkey dinner for our company this afternoon, I'm sooo tired today I'd really just like to spend the day lazing around. Boob update -all bandages and dressings are off, amazing that 6 days post-op and there wasn't a bruise in site and as for the scar it's barely visible now! That arnica must work well!! Been off the meds since last Wed but I'm still getting a lot of pain in my right breast, hard to even pinpoint exactly where it originates but I'm getting constant shooting pain... I hope this isn't going to be some lingering nonsense from nerve damage, that wouldn't be fun. It's only been a week though so can't complain.  dg... sorry I missed this mornings massage (I'd take a massage over a pedicure ANYDAY!!!), what's your schedule like tomorrow, I'm free all day.  |

Speaking of massages, what do they normally run for say an hour? I've been thinking of going to get one. Just have to find a place where I'm sure to get a woman. Call me funny, but I ain't letting a guy give me one. Are you normally sore afterwards, or is that just from deep tissue types?

I've never had a 'real' deep tissue massage - that sounds too painful for me to want to pay for it! I go to a registered massage therapist regularly, $75 for an hour, $45 for half hour, she works me over pretty good, I usually leave feeling pretty damn relaxed but she definately will work hard on areas and there are usually areas where she'll find tight muscles and knots that works on and where where I am left wanting to smack seven bells of crap out of her.  LOL... won't be going for a while, I am in no hurry to lie on my front any time soon! |

I check and it looks like around here it runs about 75-$100 an hour 55-65 half an hour. I was looking at the swedish and sport massage. I don't think I could handle the deep tissue either. The hot and cold stone sounds neat. I was begining to wonder if you were alive today? |

Mmmmmm, I had a hot stone massage, that was fricking awesome... but more of a spa massage - so relaxing but didn't really work out the kinks!
I was up and at 'em late today, partied a bit too late last night and slept in this morning... I am starting to feel quite gross, heading back to the gym next week and really feel the need to get active and start eating clean again. All my clothes are feeling snug... and I don't just mean the tops! Looking forward to leaning out and lifting again. |

I like early morning workouts, I have found that's when I am at my best for lifting... found it out after years of training evenings! Duh. Having a good day, had my post-op check up, doc is happy - he gave me some more pain meds for now as I'm still waking up at night two or three times in pain. Just hit the mall (god, I HATE shopping!!! SERIOUSLY) and spent the Christmas $$$ Rod gave me on some new bras. Looking up movie times now, think I will take the kids to see Narnia this afternoon. In a bit of a work dilema right now, I have a great clientele base and great clients but the gym I work for (World's) has undergone new management and some changes, after three months everything is still a total cluster fuck! I'm getting frustrated, as are many of my clients. Many members have left, thankfully none of my clients - though I know some of them are only staying on because I am there. The manager of Gold's wants to meet with me next week to see if I would be interested in working for them. She knows my current situation from members and other external trainers who have shifted gyms and put in a few good words about me. I will definately meet with her to discuss what they have to offer. My two main concerns are building my client base from scratch again, I know I can do it but it's scary when I am currently working full-time hours and also leaving my existing clients in the lurch... I know that about 90% would be really unhappy to see me go and would not want to switch to another trainer which is what would happen, sure some would likely follow me to another location but many of them are locked into 2 year memberships and have purchased PT packages of up to 144 sessions. What to do, what to do?!?!  Well, not much to consider yet I guess until I at least meet with the manager and hear exactly what she has in mind. |

New bras???? Oooohhhh, sexy!
I'm glad I don't have to make your decision. Sounds like a tough one you are facing. |

Not sure what totell u about your job situation. What is gonna be so bad about this new management? Can u talk with them as well? Explain how if they fuq up the system..u and several more members are going to leave. (read: Loss of income) and if they want to chance it. Go ahead and speak with the manager of the other gym and get the ball ready to roll..and also ask your clients if they will go with you if u do decide to go. Some may not be able to due to membership lock ins or distance/convenience. hmm...got some new 'boulder holders', eh? when do we get the pics of the new you?  |

I would say stay at World's, you will essentially be going from one bad situation to another. This will be my last year working for someone else.

I'd like to go independant but it's where to train people, the rec centres are pretty small and truth be told would bore me silly in no time. Most gyms won't let independent trainers work out of them. |
