Being as I spend a lot of time in the water I think I'll pass on that oneBritChick said:
- I usually do a 50% training week about every 8 weeks, this is when I train the same routine as normal but use roughly half the weight, this is my 'week off' so to speak, I am usually able to lift heavier than before the week following. My off-season training is going well, well, it was up until yesterday! My overall goals are to put on some size for next season, all the judges have told me that I have great potential, great shape, 
but need more mass to compete with the shorter girls in my class. In the short term I want to drop a few lbs before the Olympia... but food tastes soooo good right now! lol I am hoping once the kids are in school and once I start my classes too, I'll be busy enough to keep me distracted from the perpetual munchies!!!

Don't you hate that?
OMG, I completely agree!

Sorry this is not workout related but I honestly couldn't stand this movie. What a waste. First of all the movie was so short, like what 1 hour and 15 minutes or something? It felt like a long TV show. Second of all the acting sucked, and it was almost like a cheap version of Blair Witch Project, although Blair Witch was actually somewhat scary. Then there were not enough instances of sharks and all that to make the movie even frightening. The way the guy died was not even pronounced enough, I thought he was asleep and before you know it he's dead. And the way the girl died in the end? She just sunk down into the water.
Overall, the movie sucked, bad.

BritChick said:MonStar - let's hope no one who reads this actually plans to go see the movie since you just ruined the story for them if they did! lmao
Actually you probably just saved them $15!
Was it only 1hr and 15 mins??? Blimey! It seemed like MUCH longer... thank god for small mercies!!!
It was the kind of movie that had it been acted well it might have had some merit but I found myself laughing at all the bits that weren't supposed to be funny!
I have to admit that I did enjoy the Blair Witch, that movie definately gave me a severe case of the heebie jeebies

Will probably do a 4 day split with 3 days cardio... need to plan my workouts and Sep 1 is the day to remove any remaining junk from the diet.
I'd like an 8 x 10 of that new avi.. NICEMaxMirkin said:Hey babe, nice new avi! Why isn't this pic (and many others like it) in your gallery? That outfit just made my day.
