Class at 7 in the am. To hell with that noise! I wouldnt be up this early if it wasnt for the midnight shift I am on. So I guess the proper term would be up this late.

I hear ya. It was way too early for that. But good info, I guess. She wants to go natural this time. We'll see how she does.

45 min on the bike tonight, didn't get started until almost 11. Could I have skipped? Sure. But yesterday was the first time since X-mas I didn't workout. Wasn't willing to make it 2 in a row.

Another 45 min ride tonight. Good times.

Also, this makes about 3 weeks since rebooting my diet. No problems, no deviations so far. I've gotten in cardio and/or lifting each day but one as well.

Tough. Trying to really concentrate on ROM and getting low. The top part of it is easy. It's the lower part that's bear for me. But I'm trying to stay honest with all my lifts, and sacrifice weights (at least to start) to make sure I've got full ROM and perfect form.

Looks good Brother Pylon, just be careful with the upright rows, those can injure you in a heart beat if not done properly!!! We'll have to get together before your new addition my Friend!!!

Pretty much daily...yeah, I know, but you know how it is. Once you are rolling, you want to keep track. As of this morning, I'm down about 7 lbs.

Well, no pains from them so far. They've always been a favorite of mine. But I took it easy on the weight and went pretty slow with them too.

Take your time, Dub. Can't do it unless you're ready, that's what I've decided.

Today's lifting...

WU - hyperextentions, bw x 10; bike, 10 min;squats, 135 x 10

Leg Ext - 150 x 10 (up 20 lbs from last week, but still not heavy enough)
SS Squats - 225 x 6 (dropped the weight a little to focus on ROM. Felt great!)

Donkey calf raises - 285 x 12, 255 x 10
285 is the machine max, but I think I shortened the stroke a little to get the reps. Went back for a set at 255, felt very different (in a good way.) I'll work from there next time.

Thanks kids!

Headed to the bro-in-laws house tomorrow night to do some PC work for him. He's already teeing up the pizza and wings, so I'm ready for my cheat meal. But the kicker is I'm making a batch of brownies to take along. How's that for a willpower test? ("Here, make these squares of chocolate love, but don't touch them until tomorrow." )
