Feeling the BURN!

[Burner02]

"BTW, what are you doing for cardio?"
**walking back and forth from the 'fridge to the couch?


I haven't been as gods as I need to be. Cardio is SO boring! I will do it every day form now on.....and you my daer may haunt me till the end of my days.

Forgot my log book again. Wil update tomorrow.
I just bbq'd a bunch of chicken burgers for just that purpose!

Ok, was shown that my team lead and manager just sent up a highly recommended leter to my boss asking for a raise for me. A NICE raise. I guess that tantrum with me screaming and begging on the floor last week worked....

Now to shopping for Corvettes....
J/K will be paying off damn debt and getting money for my upcomin g trip......

 

[lina]

Cardio doesn't need to be boring you know... what bout music? what bout doing your boxing you talked bout? what bout taking a class? (ok, maybe not for yu!)....heya fellow, cardio everyday sounds like a lot!

Do you ever use HIIT? 15-20 min of that is enuf to kill ya! If you do HIIT 3 times per week then you don't have to do any cardio that day..so you'll be done in 20 min!

Congrats on your raise!!! That's awesome! Tantrum huh? Too funny! .... I guess you don't need that powerball after all....

 

[Jenny]

B.. Where have you been.. I miss you in my journal..

 

[Burner02]

Hiya Lina! I know....I'll be better.
I've got a friend who down loads euro-techno for me.....hat's why I hate it...I get wore the fuq out! Will be doing that tonight, actually..

Raise hasn't come yet.....just keep fingers/toes/eyes, everytihng crossed!

Friend kept me from the gym last night. the rat. He was bitching me out 'cause of my wild schedule and how I do not work with him to et there so we both can workout, so I switched my days up to accommodate him, and then we ended up not going.
(his basement flooded, so plumber was there, then he had to do a conference call w/his work until 9pm) I hadn't eaten since 4pm and was hungry, so wen got somethingto eat..then too late to figgin lift.
Tonight id JAG night....he's waiting on me to get back into town.....

Log book is in my gym bag, so will have to post previous w/outs next time.

Atleast 4 liters for a dude your size

Goodmorning !!! hehe!!!

 

[Burner02]

aww, geez, mom....


flax? FALX?? What the hell is a flax? Is it something in a bar or or something??

Salad requires salad dressing...I like the creamy kind...bad stuff...

(info on the protein I take)

[lina]

"Healthy" Fats and Oils: Flax seed oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil, walnut oil, olive oil, almonds, Brazil nuts, filberts, pecans, pine nuts, walnuts, heavy cream, real butter, and lecithin granules.

You can get flax at health food stores usually in the fridge sections...

Creamy salad dressing huh? OK, what bout oil and vinegar? Kraft Italian or Newman's Oil/Vinegar or make your own...? I put balsamic vinegar, flax and a dash of Splenda, garlic. Tastes perdy good!

Honey that link gave me an error... I don't think it's the right one hermano!

 

[lina]

Oh yes instead of salad you can do 1-2 cups of veggies, green beans, spinach, etc.

The list of foods that are ace are in this thread:

When is your exam BTW?

 

[Burner02]

I'm shooting for the 5th of November. It will give me the weekend to study plus one day.

so...cracking open a can of Planter's salted nuts won't cut it, eh?

 

[lina]

I don't know why peanuts is not on the list, but me thinks it's higher in carbs, although Natural PB is OK... but hey, we are not training for any bb show right (unless you decide to enter one in Mexico on one of those drunken nights or do some stripdancing ), I don't think it would be too bad... but ofcourse with any nuts, you have to limit....

 

[Burner02]

"unless you decide to enter one in Mexico on one of those drunken nights or do some stripdancing "

***you first, my friend!

 

[Burner02]

well, I missed several frigin days of working out...due to a friend. This is athe same guy who bitches to me that I do not compromise my schedule to help accommodate him. (I do shift work, and get to the gym on irregular days)
So, I was supposed to do legs on Monday, and start back to chest on Tuesday.
well, I thought I'd be nice and bend my schedule to him. I said I'd go do chest on Monday w/him. well, he got caught up witha conference call from work and by the time he got of the phone, I was starving and too tired to train. Scrap one day. Tuesday, he ad to go to their new house they closed on that afternoon. After screwing around, it beame too late again to go. Wednesday was also a bust, but ended up being my fault. Once again, I wound up waiting for him, askig him if he was goinng, or if I was supposede to just go on my own. He said he was going to go. Long story short, after waiting more than 2 hours for him to finish whatever erands he had to run, he called to say that his wife just stripped, opened up a botle of champaigne and was headed to tehir new hot tub....so scrap #3.
I did go ot the gym. I made it inside about 25 feet...where I ran into the first guy I met when I moved here in 1983. He asked if i wanted to go to the bar up the street for a beer and a shot.
"No time, no money" I said. (it is a topless bar..) he said he had a gold card and can get in a guest...so I said ok, plus, he lokeed as if he needed to talk about something.
So, three beers and tequilloa shots later, I figured I wasn't about to go back and pound my chest.
I did meet another girl. Of course, her working in a nudie bar, I am not quite sure if she was 'working' me or sincere. I did not however give her very much $$, and she still talked with me....so, who knows.
She's a prior marine, and is going for her realtor's license...so we have things to tlak about. what can I say, I'm more than just a bundle of hot, sexual energy....I have a mind!


Will catch up on my workouts tomorrow.

 

[Sosunni]

Yo.... Romeo! How's it going!?! Miss me!?

Just stopin' in...I'll get back on track... I've not gained anything and I've been hitting it so it's all good but I need to get back to my friends... and yea.. Da's still in the mix.. .by the seat of his fuq'n pants!!

 

[lina]

Do you need a workout partner or can you just grab someone at the gym to spot a few for you?

Hmmm...new girl at a nudie bar huh? I guess we saw that one coming !!! Have fun Burner!!

Goodluck on your exam on Tuesday! Will keep my fingers crossed for ya!

 

[Burner02]

hiya Ms. Lina!
Workout partner? Why...you offering??

I usually do my own thing, and do ask for spots. I think I amaze my friend, as that I know so many people in the gym....
It is nice to have a partner, especially for spotting. Next month I go back to the midnght shift and will be going solo again. Actually, that is fine. Some of my lifts won't be as heavy, but I will be more efficient. Long story short, my friend's work out philosphy is different. He thinks that after a mere 8 sets, he is done with chest...where I till have two exercises to go (different angles) and six sets left. He says I am over training....um..no?
I only hit my chest once per week, so it gets plenty of rest, plus there is lessbs'ing going on and get in and out faster...
Will see about the new girl. I might go back toi that bar one day next week....

had a good night at the club last night. I got way groped up by FOUR women at once! One kept saying she wsa a nurse, and damn near went 'south' to play doctor...while two others pulled my shirt up to see my chest....being the polite guy I am...I just stood there....

At the end of the night. I and another bouncer were walking two of the waitressesto their car. As they were getting in, this one little guy, (5'4" <if he was lucky> and maybe weighed in at 130 lbs....started getting a bit smart with me. I pretty much ignored him, except kept thinking of the line from Austin Powers, "...I think I will call him, Mini-me."
he spouted off that he was 'Special Forces'.....again, I was thinking, "What, you are the cook or something?"
I just kept trying to ignore the guy and get my girls into their car and outta there. Long story short, I just walked off and we left. Of course afterwards, I finally got spun up and got pissed that I used restraint. I could have and would have pounded that guy into road rash..it probably woldn't have even been fun though....plus, I was still having fun with the fact that I had 8 hands all over my body not too long previously, and the only hands that were probably gona be touching him were his own....

 

[Burner02]

I did make it to the gym lastnight, and did both my back and my shoulders. I left for work a bit last this morning, so forgot my log book again.
Tonight will be legs, Monday off, and back to chest on Tuesday.

 

[Jenny]

Hejsan (<- that's swedish! ) Burner!

How are you buddy! You're such a stranger these days!
How did it go with the topless girl? lol

NG

 

[Burner02]

Hey NG_
You read wrong....no top less girl..I wouldn't have missed that!
No, they pulled up my shirt....I guess they like guys with 'handles'....


I figured it was Swedish...but still do not know what it means...

Hiya bud!

Looking good! Nice increase in your SLDL!!!

Your food looking good! Ditch that sugar water with the Red dye no.2 and Blue food coloring, BHA, citric acid and artificial flavoring..or atleast try sugar free sweetie....

Have a toorooloo day!!!

 

[Burner02]

it's actually not kool-aide. just easier to say thatn that. They are called: Diet Ice Botanicals with Splenda.

Cool aide is just quicker to type...


damn, down to 3 weeks.....must do mucho cardio....

 

[lina]

Hmmm...sounds refreshing !
