I'll rent it first to see what it's like. I am not really into those types of games. I usually play sports games or first person shooting games.
By the way, has zelda (the 3D version) come out for gamecube yet? I was a big fan of zelda ocarina of time and majoras mask. I was pissed when they released the cartoon zelda game (cell shading .. i think it was called) and didnt buy it. Ya sorry fufu, i guess your journal name is gonna have to be "FuFu's Elite Hardcore Gaming Journal" |

If you have ever played Morrowind(Elderscrolls III), it is kind of like it, except the graphics are a hell of alot better, there is so much fun in the sun that you can play it for 1000's of hours and still find new stuff in it. There is so just so much you can do in it. I'm starting to confuse it with realy life it is so l337. You are this guy(that you create) and you are in this world and you just go around questing and basically doing whatever the fuck you wanna do. The character creation is incredible, you can change just about anything physical about him/her. Of course there is a main quest but that is only like 10% of the game. I guess it can be compared to the new Grand Theft Auto games, except you are in a medieval fantasty land. I heard that there hasn't been one place that had rated it under a 9.0. |

I love tennis. Somedays I just play meh and somedays I'm just on it. Inconsistantcy along with tendon problems drove me away from tennis for a while. I'm going to try to get back in the groove of it during the summer. |

Nice work, I see you're keeping track of RI's now. Do you do your military presses sitting or standing?

Yeah I always count my RI in the gym but would never log them. I figure it is a good idea recording them seeing as sometimes I change them time to time. I do them standing. For some reason when I do military presses I always have trouble breathing in. My body just gets so tight. |

Today is my first "official" day back to legs. Here it is:
squats RI 2-3 minutes set #1 - 12 reps at 115 lbs (warm up) set #2 - 8 reps at 225 lbs set #3 - 8 reps at 225 lbs set #4 - 6 reps at 225 set #5 - 7 reps at 205 on my fifth set I could have done a few more reps but my form was being seriously compromised because I was wasted from the previous sets. The bar was also slowly lowering down. It was a matter of endurance, something I should probably work on. I wanted the even 8! Damn it. dumb bell lunges RI 2 minutes set #1 - 6 reps each leg at x2 55 lbs set #2 - 6 reps each leg at x2 55 lbs ![]() dumb bell SL sumo deadlifts set #1 - 8 reps at x2 85 lbs grip was raped at this point so I figured it best to switch over to barbells barbell sumo deadlifts(not SL) RI 90 seconds set #1 - 8 reps at 205 lbs set #2 - 8 reps at 205 lbs set #3 - 8 reps at 205 lbs smith machine calf raises RI 45 seconds set #1 - 20 reps at 135 lbs(I guess? a 45 lb plate each end) set #2 - 20 reps at 135 lbs set #3 - 20 reps at 135 lbs This was the most savage work out I've had in a while. It feels awesome to have it behind me though. Now I can take the weekend to rest and then back to the weights. Next friday I'll be lifting for power, reps will be in the 1-4rep range. |

Here is yesterday's chest/triceps shindig -
db flat bench set #1 - 10 reps at x2 45 lbs (warm up) set #2 - 10 reps at x2 70 lbs set #3 - 9 1/2 reps at x2 70 lbs db incline bench set #1 - 8 reps at x2 55 lbs set #2 - 8 reps at x2 55 lbs machine seated chest press set #1 - 8 reps at 165 lbs set #2 - 8 reps at 150 lbs cable flies set #1 - 6 reps at x2 60 lbs set #2 - 6 reps at x2 50 lbs close grip bench set #1 - 8 reps at 115 lbs set #2 - 6 reps at 115 lbs db single handed tricep extentions set #1 - 8 reps each hand at 25 lbs set #2 - 8 reps right/7 left at 25 lbs Wow, this is the third week I've had a shitty chest work out. Strength is down. I ended up going to failure on several sets because I was lifting weight I thought was moderate for me. I really have to change shit around, I'm not going to go through another week of doing the same sort of thing. I usually change rep/set schemes every other week but it is hard to set them up when I can't find where my strength is at because it has been wacky with chest pressing and such. I think I'm going to lower volume and a bit of intensity and work chest on monday and thursday, switching between dumb bells and barbells. We will see how that works out. |

Here is today's back/biceps shindig -
This workout I was training for strength/power. dumb bell rows - set #1 - 10 reps each side at 50 lbs (warm up) set #2 - 5 reps each side at 85 lbs set #3 - 5 reps each side at 95 lbs PR set #4 - 5 reps each side at 95 lbs wide grip cable pulldown - set #1 - 6 reps at 150 lbs set #2 - 5 reps at 165 lbs set #3 - 5 reps at 165 lbs deadlifts - set #1 - I kind of lost count doing these, either 8 or 10 reps at 135 lbs (warmup) set #2 - 6 reps at 245 lbs DOH set #3 - 6 reps at 255 lbs DOH set #4 - 6 reps at 265 lbs DOH PR deadlifts went great, I probably did them as controlled as I ever have, going relatively slow on the eccentric portion of the lift. standing db curls set #1 - 8 reps each arm at x2 30 lbs (warm up) Incline dumb bell curls set #1 - 6 reps each arm at x2 40 lbs set #2 - 6 reps each arm at x2 40 lbs standing cable curls set #1 - 8 reps at 100 lbs set #2 - 8 reps at 100 lbs I got an awesome pump. The biggest pump I've got in my biceps in a long time. Overall this workout was awesome. I felt great afterwards. I've been impressed with my back/biceps days for the past three weeks. I now know that I'm not losing strength overall. Just in the chest area for some reason. |
