Lesson for the day....never buy the 5 lb bucket of whey unless you know you like the flavor. I've been choking down this fruit punch crap for what feels like years. It sucks. Would it be a real crime to toss it out?

Bakerboy · 02-28-2007, 03:01 PM

Just make a shake out of it with other ingredients that you like.

Where's the vodka?

Pylon · 02-28-2007, 03:53 PM

Gross.

No, this is what I keep in my desk. It just gets tossed with water for a quick downing. But it's nasty. Even worse, I just got in some chocolate whey, which means the fruit flavor is pissing me off even more.

Tell you what, Arch. next time we get together, you can have the rest of my stash.

Pylon · 02-28-2007, 08:50 PM

Even though I did the yoga, still felt I needed "real" cardio. 30 minutes, double hill on the bike. Woohoo!

Pylon · 02-28-2007, 10:04 PM

Headed to bed, but no idea if I'll be able to sleep. My tri's are killing me, to the point I can't straighten my arms. I did incline presses and skulls into cg presses yesterday, and the yoga was a lot of plank positions and transitions. (Basically REALLY SLOW PUSHUPS.)

Gaarrgghhh.

Burner02 · 03-01-2007, 11:48 AM

how'd u like the yoga? were you there for the view, or does it help out overall? Something about seeing sime cute thing in a leotard or whatever with her legs wrapped behnd her head.....hhmm....

Pylon · 03-01-2007, 01:19 PM

No, not the view....that's just a plus. I really enjoy it. Great for flexibility, and it more work than you would think.

Good to see you're back around!

Archangel · 03-01-2007, 05:23 PM

I'll take ya up on the protein my Friend!!! Yoga looks like it would be hard, my hats off to ya!!! Hope you can sleep better now!!!

Brutus_G · 03-01-2007, 05:27 PM

Now this stuff sucks!

Archangel · 03-02-2007, 05:46 PM

How goes it BRother Pylon!!! Enjoy the weekend my Friend!!!

Pylon · 03-02-2007, 07:50 PM

Been feeling tired, so took off yesterday and today. (A heavy workload hasn't helped.) Kept food clean, tho, so I don't feel too guilty. Going to try to rest up over the weekend.

Archangel · 03-03-2007, 07:40 AM

Rest up and ENJOY my Friend!!!

Double D · 03-03-2007, 07:48 AM

Hey Py, I got a buddy who said he could get me a personal training job in St.Louis just as soon as I complete my cert. test!!! Dude if I do you got to make a trip over.

Brutus_G · 03-03-2007, 07:48 AM

Sometimes a 4-5 day time off can add 5-10 pounds to each of the big 3 try it!

Hey, I'm trying to drop pounds!

Pylon · 03-03-2007, 10:52 AM

Speaking of which, weighed in at 256 this morning. Puts me pretty much back on track after being sick two weeks ago. Should still be able to hit the target (245) by 4/1/07.
