Just a little window shopping. Just looking, no buying! Haha!

So get this. I went to the HAIR SALON last week with my girlfriend! Katt wanted me to tell you! I think she might be hinting that she wants you to join her! Haha!!! Sorry
katt finally started to get her first pain from lifting, and i was like "welcome to my world". she doesnt have tendonitis, but just some shoulder pain.

ya, window shopping is ok, but i get in trouble for leaving finger prints on the glass all the time.

and as far as the hair saloon goes. she doesnt want me there for fear of me taking a pic with the cell phone. and using it agianst her.

thanks triple threat, but easier said than done. i am about the most computer illiterate person you will ever come across, and katt doesn't want to show me how to do all that stuff, because then i will never get off the computer

Nice WO!!!

Haha... I can understand about the hair salon... I imagine I would catch hell if I were to take a pic there. In fact, if I stop posting on here for 2-3+ weeks, you will know what happen and should probably begin looking for my body clutching a cell phone.

I like the quote! It is SOO true!!!!....

"Its not about how much you can benchpress, it is about how much it looks like you can benchpress!"

LOL!

Katts just full of good ideas huh!

Hows the tendonitis coming along? I feel for you buddy, one of my friends got tendonitis while training for henley a couple of months back and her physio told her to take 3 months off - no kidding and no cheating. It honestly took her that long to recover. I hope yours isn't as bad as that!

I was asked this in one of my classes just a few days ago "How much do you bench? 400?" Oddly I get asked that a lot, but I cant bench anywhere near that much.

GREAT WO... I like the Incline CG Bench.

thanks mb. i dont like doing the dips as the first exercise, but katt wanted to do them, so i made her do them with weigths. thats a first for the incline close grip. it was ok. hoping to do better next time.

burner, how are u doing? another thing that will put a stop to your w/o is hitting your nipple with a db. makes you want to scream, MOTHER FUCKER THAT HURT!!!!!! you can ask katt, she did last.

Ouch!

Mine are all strapped up and out of the way when i go to the gym!!

I got this new top not long ago, which had a built in bra. Great idea, no? Well, i thought so, but then while working out, noticed that people were kind of staring at me, at my top, you know. I thought, it's okay, its a nice top, they obviously are appreciating the fabric or something. Only after wearing it a few times did i realise that, after working up a sweat, my nipples became really obvious through the material.

I looked like i was smuggling peanuts!

sounds like the new definition of "eye candy"!!!!
most guys dont mind that kind of a flaw in a workout outfit.
at least it isnt a real bad fashion statement.

well we finally found our way back to the gym. a nice little break i must say.
our plan is to go with lower weights and higher reps, till we go on our hunting trip in october. and also we have three weeks to get some serious cardio in, or our butts are going to be dragging.

todays w/o
chest and tris

db incline
50-12
70-12
75-10
80-6

db flat bench
70-10
80-8
85-5

tri push down w/ rope
80-8
75-10
70-10

db kickbacks
30-12
35-12
37.5-12

bw dips
12/9

we arent taking any thing right now, no before w/o drinks, creatine,dhea, nothing. so i noticed a little bit of a difference in the energy level. but still got a really good pump. feel like im still retaining the mass that i got from the cycle.
well cardio tonite. fun,fun
