Time to face the jury (and myself)

[Devlin]

...althought..while in Dev's journal..I may say...i could possibly be smitten by her...but that is a whole different story...

Well I ended up in Kohl's , but I did end up getting decent deals without too much of a crowd. Decided gym could wait until tomorrow and I'll hit chest and cardio then. I never really got DOMS today, but the hamstrings and calves are tight. Will do some stretching in a little bit.

I buy most my jeans at Old Navy. Those folks get a lot of money from us. And there always pushing that damn credit card of theirs. I always resist.

 

[Burner02]

...resistance is futile....

 

[Devlin]

Sorry all I crashed one of the computers I am working on and it a bitch to get restarted.

 

[Burner02]

No didn't kick it, but did throw a little temper tantrum. It worked, but only part way. Got the computer program that crashed back up and running, but it lost a connection to the second computer I work on. Only way to get the connection back was to shut both down completely which takes longer than I wanted to wait. Managed to finish what I needed to and tomorrow I can get the connection back since I'm calling it a day. Time to hit the gym.

Now go HIT the gym my Friend and forget all about the crappy day!!!

 

[Devlin]

I was more upset cause it caused my internet feed of music to crash too, but got that back first. I have my priorities.

I did hit the gym hard and I'm sure I'm going to be feeling it tomorrow. I will give fair warning, guys better go get the protective cups, cause it may not be safe for you in a bit....

Chest

Warmup-10 minutes
Stairmill- 5 minutes at level 5, 5 minutes level 7

Dumbbell chest pullover
25 x 12
30x 10, 10

Dumbbell incline bench press
22.5 x 10, 10
25 x 7

Dips*
Bw x 8, 6 , 8

*had not intended to do these here, but the guys had the benches all tied up.

Flat Bench
65 x 4, 5
75 x 2

*Ok could have done these sooner. Turns out a bench that I thought I was being used was not being used to move weights, instead a guy was using it to hold his towel and energy drink.

Flat bench with closed grip
55 x 8
60 x 5
20 x 2.5*

* Ok hit big tie failure here. Umm hello.... some help here would be nice. Ok no help coming, I thought there were guys with balls in the gym tonight, guess not. Guess they kissed them goodbye when their muscles got big. Must be inverse proportions going on, bigger the muscles, the smaller the heads opps I mean brains. I wasn't pissed that I hit failure, I was pissed that no one, not a single one of the big brawny men stopped to lift the bar off my chest. I was like ok how the hell do I get out of this one Ended up being able to lift it just enough to get it to my abs, then sit up, then onto bench. It wasn't fun Moving on....

Incline bench dumbbell flies
15 x 8 (ohh not fun, could barely even press these like a incline bench press and then chest was shaking the entire time)
10 x 12, 12 (better, but still had shakes)

Overall I was happy with this. Dispite the wonderful embarrasing moment of laying with 65 pounds sitting on my chest and no help to remove it. I missed a couple days of creatinine and I think I was feeling it. Next week will be better.

Chest was shaking

I'm not sweating it, shit happens sometimes. Honestly what bothered me more was the lack of help. Ohh well, live and learn...now I know how to escape.

it was shaking. Ohh Burner going to have a field day with this one

Yes please

 

[Kal]

Nice w/o D. The Muscle men should have been paying more attention.

 

[Devlin]

Thanks guys. When I was laying ther pinned, one thought did pass through. I though, "Ohh this would not be happening if the IM gang was here."

Humm Burner and Py having dinner together That could be interesting.

 

[Rocco32]

I don't think we woulda gotten the bar off either if we were there Devlin. We'd be fighting each other too much trying to get to you Nice w/o.

Ohh I could picture that and I probable would have ended up laughing then. Atleast you all would have been making an effert to help. Atleast 2 guys walked right by without stopping

 

[Burner02]

Aloha, hottie! Happy Hump Day!
Got stuck, eh? were you grunting?
Can't believe nobody stopped to help you. Did u sound off to anybody as they walked past?
"hey...a little help here?"

I got stuck under a decline Bench Press once...LONG time ago...I had to lie there with that weight sitting on my chest till some guy just happened to walk past...got his attention..then he spotted it up...yep. slightly embarrassing...

 

[Burner02]

it was shaking. Ohh Burner is going to have a field day with ME

Just say the word, little lady..

Muhahahahaaa......

 

[Triple Threat]

chest was shaking the entire time

Did someone call me?

I can't believe that no one helped, or at least asked you if you needed help. Perhaps they thought you were doing paused bench presses? Either that or you've intimidated everyone at the gym.

Well if I was doing them with a pause, I was big time cheating then since the bar was completely down on my chest. It possible that I intimated them, hell I was the only woman in the free weight area actually working out with free weights.

 

[Devlin]

I forgot to mention......

I am feeling yesterday's workout in the chest and shoulders.

 

[b_reed23]

hiya Dev!! I LOVE when your chest shakes after a good workout, you definetly notice it more when doing flys..the first time it ever happened to me I got a case of the giggles, and barely finished my set

I can't believe no one at the gym helped you.....that would kinda piss me off too!!

Well that's what I get for working out at a Gold's Gym (sorry CP) with a bunch of eye candy. All looks and no brains. (sorry guys)

I'm sure I'd like it when she shakes her chest too....
(had to be said...might as well have been me to have said it)

Have I mentioned that I give a great mass....oh...I have....

ya know....normally...I do the back..but in this case, I would be willing to massage away the sore spots....'cause that's what friends do!

I'm chiming in a little late, but everyone gets stuck under the bar now and then. It's the only way to get stronger (lifting heavier, not getting stuck.)

I noticed you didn't answer the question about whether or not you asked for a spot. If not, you should be honored. Wouldn't you be more upset if you were doing your workout and guys kept stopping and saying "Hey, baby, that looks a little heavy for you. Why don'tcha let me handle that so you can go get dolled up for me to take you to dinner...."

No I hadn't ask for a spot, except for when I work with my trainer, I lift solo. I haven't had any guys stop and ask me if I would like help They look, but they don't offer or hell it like pulling teeth for them to say "Hi" Just don't what is up with these guys here. Maybe Trip is right, I intimidate them

Cardio day and I wasn't a happy camper after the workout. I've had the sniffles for a while, but have felt fine. Today, the sniffles got a little worse and think a cold is trying to set in. It not going to happen , it's not on my schedule

Cardio-50 minutes
Treadmill- 3% incline
Speed: 2.5-5
Total miles: 3.25

I was not able to jog more than a 1/2 mile today. I got shin splints yet again I was hoping to be ready for a 5K by march, but looks like that not going to happen. So 5K will have to be in June instead. I'm gettin really tired of the shin spints. I may have to look into different running sneakers if it keeps up.
