Its still in the planning phase and what not...not sure when it will be fully up and running if we open it at all. If we open the place you come down and have dinner on me...if not your always welcome at my house sir!

36 hour shift and then go and work out. your nuts!!!! how long do you sleep for after that, or do you get down time to sleep while on shift?

Eh its just another day in the office! No sleep stay up straight through normally. A little coffee and I'm on my way! As for sleeping after max 5 hours. Anything over 3 hours for me is rare. I can't sleep full nights I just take extended naps. My brain is trained with this job to sleep light and not sleep much. Every now and again though my body shuts down and I zonk out for 8-10 hours to recharge for the week. On average I sleep 1/3 of hat a normal person would.

and I always wonder why I'm injured...physically demanding job, crazy stress levels, no sleep...yea sounds like a bad brew to me LOL.

 

[DeadBolt]

Well never went to look for the gym ended up working 45 hours straight with no sleep and the last 9 which iw asn't suppose to be there we got HUMPED! We were non stop and thats when the tiredness kicked in and I still had a 2 hour ride home b/c of the rain. I opted to bail on finding the gym.

Monday i work a 24 so I will go try to find it sometime then and renew my membership. Went and got a new bag and packed all my shit up so now I will just need to grab my bag in order to go to the gym...no excuses!

 

[the other half]

when i worked graveyard shift, i would only sleep 2 or 3 hours at a time twice a day. that about kills you later. now i fall asleep and if i wake up then i cant get back to sleep for a couple of hours. its getting better though.

good luck finding a gym. send pics of you new bag, i just dying to see it.

 

[DeadBolt]

send pics of you new bag, i just dying to see it.

Tomorrow afternoon I'll be on the hunt for a new gym! And yes I have my bag all packed

FINALLY A WORKOUT!!!

Well went to several gyms before I settled on the only one with a shower. Its an OK gym but man was it PACKED! Just went light and trying to learen the new place. Today I explored the free weight section.

All rubber weights...nothing under 15lbs which sux so no shoulder thereapy today. I'll find something though. Sure feels strange working out in a new gym with all new faces. EWveryone was staring at me like who the fuck is this guy. I could care less though I keep my mouth shut and do what I have to do. Not much room for free bar moves like squats and deadlifts which blows ass but tomorrow morning im gonna try and get in there for some cardio and explore a little more.

1st workout in 3 months:

10 walk/warmup

Db Bench 50s*12*2
DB Row 60s*15*2
Pushdowns 50*15*2
BB Curls 50*10*2
DB Milt Press 30s*12*2
DB Side Laterals 15s*15*2

10m jog @ 65%MHR

I couldn't find any leg stuff I'm guessing it is where the rest of the machines are so no legs. I'll try to find it next time. The gym is weird they have some machines/cables and all free weights in one room then the other room is machines/cables. Strange setup but they have a TON of cardio gear which is good b/c its what I need. They also have a theatre cardio room where they play movies and stuff in a dark cardio room. And all cardio gear has a built in TV.

Thats all I had time to explore today had to shower real fast and get to work (where im at now )

I'm not gonna complain about the weights b/c I purposly went extra light and I plan on doing that for a week or two just to get into the swing of things. Dont think I will be able to do my circuit work here there is just no room but I'm gonna try and find a dead time in the gym and maybe fit it in there.

 

[DeadBolt]

Oh and there must not be a "no slamming weights" rule b/c these assholes were slamming them fuckiong rubber DBs all over the place. That shit is annoying if you can't handle the weight be a man and drop down or ask for a fucking spotter you homos!

Sorry first day back and I already have to vent!

 

[katt]

nice to see you're finally back at it..

About the guys slamming the weights.. we have those too. It could be 20 lb db's or 50 lb's and at the end of their sets they just let them fall to the ground..... tards... You want to go over and choke their little necks sometimes...

 

[DeadBolt]

tnx sweety!

 

[Pylon]

I feel your pain, Bolt. Starting at the new gym this week. Lifting tomorrow. At least it's the Y that I've gone to before, so I know what to expect, but still...

 

[the other half]

if you want to make friends, just go in and take up 3 machines and a couple of sets of db all at one time. you will have all sorts of people helping you learn the ropes of the new gym. and maybe they have rubber weights so that people dont put holes in the walls(we wont mention any names)

 

[b_reed23]

forget putting holes in the walls...half our dumbells have chunks taken out of them...making you wonder if they are "even" or the right amount at all!! at our gym half the shit is falling apart from neglect or people not taking care of stuff...

 

[DeadBolt]

heya whats happening ya'll!

Yea we have rubber weights but the floors dont have the rubber mats so it doesn't help one bit.

I need to get fitted for new uniforms today (lost alot of weight the last 9 months) so after that i'll hit the gym then off to work.

That means i wont get in until its swamped again but tomorrow I should be able to get in before the rush gets there and really check it all out.

 

[DeadBolt]

Also weighted myself...I'm at 176lbs. Thats after a carb up for the past week and a half so I'm guessing I would have been right around 172-173 prior to that. That means since I've stopped going to the gym I'm down nearly 20lbs. Fat and muscle yes but hey no biggy. I'll get it back.

Gonna try to get some pics taken we'll see when someone has a chance to take some. Right now my goal is recomp...just get back into the swing of things and get use to it all again. After those few weeks it will be try to lean out as much as possible then a very very clean bulk.

 

[DeadBolt]

Oh man I dont miss working legs!!! I have a 36 hour shift ahead of me and I'm not going to enjoy carrying patients up and down steps LOL.

Squats
135*20*4

Deadlifts
185*10*4

Abz *100 reps

Cardio 25 min walk on treadmill

 

[DeadBolt]

Oh and I really dislike this gym...there is no respect shit laying all over and a ton of people. I need to look else where.

 

[b_reed23]

....maybe you wont have to tote any 400lbers up any stairs today....here's hoping!!!

[DeadBolt]

Had a big fiasco at work today couple trucks died couple people died man it was miserable. I only got an hour off to shower and workout so I just opted for cardio.

30 minutes intervals 3min run (90%MHR) 2 min walk(66%MHR)
stretching and back to work LOL.

Felt good to hit the treadmill again stride didn't stray to far I'm still in line just need to get use to it again.

 

[b_reed23]

sorry to hear about your bad night DB!

 

[DeadBolt]

6 more hours n its all over lol

oh yea n my legs are revolting LOL sore as shit!

 

[katt]

I guess after a while you get used to people dying?? I would really have a hard time with that one.

Hopefully your doms won't last too long... that first leg workout is a killer!

People think we are all heartless bastards who dont care...in a way yes but we have to be. We dont want to be that way but if we get attached to every patient we will never do our job properly. When emotion gets mixed in you lose sight of what needs to get done...you will never help anybody whe n your like that. You need to keep a kewl collected mind and if you are all frantic and trying to be superman you wont do anyone any good and will only hurt yourself in the end.

Though we seem like assholes alot LOL we didn't ask to be like that the job makes yout hat way. It sucks I know!

As for the DOMS. . . . SOB . . . . my legs were killin me all weekend!!! I opted to get some RR this weekend and not do a damn thing. Just slept the whole weekend away so far. Man I hope my legs are good to go for tomorrows workout.

My diet has been REALLY good lately and I'm proud of that! My metabolism has been kicked into overdrive and I am hungry all day long. Every time someone see's me I am eating something LOL. every 2 hours on the dot I start to hear my stomach rumble LOL

 

[Pylon]

It's a tough gig, and I can see how it would change you. We all appreciate the work you do!

Well done on the diet. That's the toughest part. Enjoy the rest!

 

[DeadBolt]

Thanks Py nice to hear some people appreciate it LOL.

Today I splurged with breakfast a bit...I was starving so I added a few more cals.

3 whole eggs, 1 slice cheese, 2oz venison, 3oz chx breast, 1 packet low sugar oatmeal (24 carbs)...total meal I'll put it right around 35 carbs. Thats the extent of my cheat breakfast LOL

 

[the other half]

venison, you are a ruthless bastard. you killer you. you have no emotions or feelings.

 

[Pylon]

That's not true. He does have emotions and feelings. For instance...

"I love eating this venison!"

and

"That venison made me feel full!"
