However, Clean living for the rest of this month, cut back the drinking, eat better.

Yeah, Did'nt even cross my mind to eat sensibly. I'm from goobland. It's like the 'Beach', I can't let people know where it is. It's a mystical place where the chicks are hot and easy, the drugs are phenominal, and there's no such thing as work. If everyone knew where it was, it would lose it's magic.

Definately. Could'nt afford to do that often in terms of money, health, and sanity.

Did one a couple of days ago, just about 3 miles, did not time it. Been neglecting the running a bit, I can't remember my best time, something like 26 mins for a 4 mile, 18 ish for a 3, and something like 52 for 8 miles.

Front Squats are the shit, aren't they?

I love 'em much better than back squats, but they kill my shoulders where the bar rests on them. Oh well, what doesn't kill you . . .

Wow great numbers on the leg press Goob!!!

Sam - they hurt my shoulders also... most times I have to get a couple towels from our front desk and put on my shoulders before I get the bar up there.

I hate back squats. Front work you all over, a really good movement, plus they don't fuck my old injuries up like back squats and deads do.

This was the first day of the new program. Gaz's idea, Witch designed. Pretty much stuck to it like glue. Did'nt even add any extra stuff in like I usually do. Only change was swapping the BB curls for the suggested hammer curls.

Rep range: Was 4 x 6. Damn it should have been 5 x 6. mis read that.

Brutus_G · 01-09-2008, 12:49 PM

Likin those dips G.

JailHouse · 01-09-2008, 06:14 PM

Youre db pressing is vary nice!

the other half · 01-09-2008, 08:53 PM

Yeah, just like my trainer and instructors "we're not going to count it unless you do it the right way" and then they keep counting reps like 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, "no you're still on 1," 1, 2, 3, 4, "no wrong, start over" (going for 25

).

So do it again!
