HEY GUY!!
YUUUMMY Ben & Jerrys ice cream!! I LOVE Their Low fat yogurt Chocolate brownie ice cream..to die for!

Everything else looks great in here hon!!! How was "the Ring"??

HOW ARE UUU???

 

[dvlmn666]

Yes it was a cheat, but bought the 2 cup version and there was no way in hell I could eat it.

I like the ring, that was the second time I've seen it, and still made me jump at times.

I'm doing alright, TP is helping me with my workouts, and tell ya what they are kicking my Ass!!!!

I took the test yesterday, there were like 8 questions I wasn't sure about but won't have the score back until wednesday. So have to sit here and wait to find out.

 

[kuso]

The ring kicks ass eh!!!?! I haven`t seen your version but the original is scarey as HELL!

 

[dvlmn666]

Well I like scary movies, and this one does a great job with the suspense and everything. I like some odd movies anyway, but for the most part I think this is one of the best thrillers that has come out in the last few years.

Isn't the origional only in japanese though? If not I'll have to see it.

Might go see Red Dragon again tonight

 

[kuso]

The original is in Japanese, but I THINK there is a version with subtitles

Red Dragon looks cool, can`t w8!

Saw XXX last week.....

 

[dvlmn666]

Whatcha think of XXX? I only saw that one 3 times, one on an IMAX though.

I'll have to look into the subtitled version

 

[kuso]

XXX kicked ass............great action movie that didn`t need all the blood and guts most of em revert too.......I`ve liked Vin for awhile now, but he really kicked ass this time.....looking forward to XXXII!

 

[dvlmn666]

Yep, that's how I felt about it. Was a great action movie that relied on the action instead of the violence and blood and guts.

I think there will end up being quite a few of them since it's set up as a modern day Bond series by the looks of it.

 

[kuso]

Looks that way! I sure hope so too!! Can`t w8 for part II

Yeah, my lower body has always been way ahead of my upper.

I haven't worked calves in almost a month now. but this week I will again.

 

[Twin Peak]

I think I have pretty good calves, but they are 2 inches smaller than my arms. Hmm, I wonder what a classic BB proportions are supposed to be.

 

[lina]

Hi D!

How are things?

I read somewhere you are getting ready to take some test! Good luck! To become a PT?

Your journal is looking awesome! Great job on the eating! Tp should be proud!

 

[Twin Peak]

Not really, lina, did you see the B&J?

 

[dvlmn666]

Yep, TP's right, and I'm cleaning that up this week. It won't happen again. I paid the price for it though, ended up getting sick from it. lol

Thanks Lina, yep tomorrow I get the news on how I did on the test. Then while I'm training people I'll finish studying for my ISSA

I too am not proud of the B&J....

Now D, just because "you weren't hungry and had to eat something" does not give you the right to eat that stuff. Not on this diet!! If you weren't really hungry but knew you should've eaten something (I've done this plenty of times) I've always made up some tuna and had half of it on a bed of shredded lettuce or a half of a tuna sandwich with a hard boiled egg. Or why not just a protein shake?

Also, if you're really going to do this thing, you need to stay away from the protein bars.

 

[dvlmn666]

the protein bars are only to cover when I'm out looking for a job. So those will stop shortly.

And yeah the B&J was a bad slip up. Won't happen again. The Bacardi Silvers either!!!

You rep range in general looks good. Now you have to stick with these weights until you can get more than 8 reps.

This regression is odd. You dropped the weight and lost a lot of strength. That tells me that you are warming up too much (you SHOULD have a slight pump but not feel like you have done a working set) and/or that your stamina (muscular not cardiovascular) needs serious work.

Normally if you got 75 for 9 you should stick with the same weight, maybe up it.

THEY NEED TO STOP NOW!!! YOU CAN'T AFFORD THAT THIS EARLY IN THE DIET. TAKE SOME VEGGIES WITH YOU ON THE GO. DO YOU HAVE A LITTLE CARRY COOLER? PUT IT IN THE FRIDGE AT NIGHT WITH SOME HARD BOILED EGGS AND RAW VEGGIES. I'LL SEND YOU A COOLER IF YOU DON'T HAVE ONE.

I JUST DON'T KNOW IF I'M GOING TO EVEN RESPOND TO THAT ONE. TSK..TSK..TSK

Yeah I think it's the muscular stamina, that's why I was going to just keep workin with the 75's until I can get a miniumum of 8/set for all three sets.

I'm also trying to get used to the timing, I've been trying to force myself to take about 1.5 minutes of rest between sets. TP should I try to make that more, or stick with that and just keep workin hard like I have been?

 

[dvlmn666]

I know, no more excuses. I'll make the bar I had this morning the last one. And gonna just have to figure a way to bring the stuff with. and will be picking up a cooler quick.

I think you should move up in weight for your first set. Do the 80s, then 75s.

 

[dvlmn666]

Ok sounds good to me.

 

[irontime]

Damn. I can't believe this is the first time I posted on here Sorry bro, I usually just look for the little black dots on the side as to which threads I replied in and must've missed I was wondering where the hell you took off to

Damn nitrotech bars are fricken addicting eh? I got hooked on the smores myself, but I can't find a store here in this city that sells them so I'm off the hook untill summer? So how is everything going with ya?
