780 Reasons You Should Know Cocoa Espresso

I have family that do the drop in thing too GRRRRR.

Don’t worry about the unplanned bad eating too much. Sucks to get off your plan but you won’t notice a single day of it but it is annoying. Eat some protein with your bad food and you can say it’s better :slight_smile: (Those are my rules, if I eat sugary crap I have to eat at least an egg or two with it–it ends up I go through a lot of eggs! :wink: )

HOpe you had a nice visit with the famdamily. And damn those MPS! YOu’ll get that 105 next time. You were just missing your pre workout frosty.

You are the Volume queen, i will give you that!

Sugarbuns, don’t sweat the small stuff. Cookies won’t kill you and with the volume you did on Friday, they probably won’t even set you back regarding your diet/weight goals. Relax.

About the volume. Holy crap! I though my Saturday training was a lot of volume and then I read that! Wowser! BTW, looking sexy over in SAMA :wink:

Aww Maschy, I know you must be aching for a pull-up.
Meanwhile, you’re ahead of me in that department so maybe I can take advantage of your shoulder to play catch-up =(

Deb, it just annoyed me because a couple years ago, my mom and I had problems with the apartment or something and we asked if we could go to my grandparents’ house and they said no. And they say no pretty often to last minute changes like that. But when they want to come over, they call 2 hours before they leave. It’s just… hypocritical. And that’s a big pet peeve of mine.
Not to sound like a bitch though, I love my fam, of course.
Haha, my protein stays up there, it’s just the carbs. Luckily my body loves cheating with carbs. There’s usually no damage in the mirror the next day, yay for that.

Nadia, thanks for understanding my lack of Frosty training <3

Yeppers Mr. Timmy

Veggie, my cheat day consists of more than cookies… bashful grin
But thank you, and with the training, I guess my body did take it all in.
Thank you Dumplin’, you look amazing in SAMA yourself <3

OK, so what a day.
Walk to the gym. Planning to do legs, with awesome squats like box squats, zerchers and hack squats. Yay!

I get my frosty, since I did fasted walk to the gym. Which technically makes the frosty my breakfast… but anyway.
The guy that’s butthurt that I can squat as much as him put me in a terrible mood however. I really don’t understand how upset he can be about that. Like I said, he works there, so he greets and says bye to everyone but me, which is unlike him because we were always cool before that squat session.

So, I’m training in a bad mood. Did pathetic box squats, I was just thinking of how hard it is to be a female in the gym, y’know?

Anyway, my guy shows me how to do hack squats. I was so happy! I’m finally getting it, so eventually I get to the point that I will feel comfortable doing them with 95#. So I get the 25# plate and the plate falls on my foot.
Sadly no one in the gym gives two shits, or maybe don’t realize that I’m limping and teary-eyed from pain, not lactic acid. I eventually find my bf and he gets me the First Aid kit.

So I’m in the lobby-like area waiting to go home, and butthurt asshole asks my bf “What’s wrong with her?”
I swear, if I wasn’t bleeding out through my toenail… grr, anyway.

So I’m home with my foot up, after it was bandaged properly by my mom who was shaking from the sight of blood.

… and I’m bored. Or it can be fatigue, being anemic and bleeding this much can’t be good.
Well, I’ll be around, not much to do lol

Argh that sounds really painful! I used to ride horses as a kid and remember a girl losing a toenail after a horse stepped on her foot. Lot of blood then too. Wasn’t the blood that bothered me, though - more the idea of the nail getting ripped out. Brrr.
Hope yours doesn’t come off and feel better soon!
Also…have a nice steak.

ohhhhh ouch! I had a 45lb plate fall over onto my toe and it was so painful. I know how you feel! Make sure you clean it really good and let it air out so it doesnt get infected or anything.

that sucks about that douche at the gym. you know what they say… “haters gonna hate” :slight_smile:

owwww!! :{ BOOO!!!

punk ass


May I suggest this piece of gear

Bleh, sorry to hear about that :frowning: Sure hope that toe of yours heals fast.

Cal, yeah the toenail’s gonna come off. One day. I don’t know when though
Yeah steak will be helpful but I don’t want to bother anyone to get me one lol

Greg, a 45#? OH…EHM…GEE. I would’ve died

Rock, you’re right. I’m a crybaby =)

Haha Aqua, you think of everything.

Thanks peoples <3
I’m gonna get my bandage changed and call it an early night. I’m so TIIIIIIRRRREEEEDDDD, I hate low-iron.
It’s a good thing I’m not competing in May, crap. Hopefully I won’t be out of the gym too long though. FML

this sucks donkeyballs.
hope you feel better soon. That guy is a total fool. don’t waste your energy on him.

Ouch! I hope it doesn’t hold you back! Worst I’ve done is walk into a 45 on the floor and that sucked much.

Hope the foot is feeling better Nikki.

Somehow I doubt this is going to keep you down for long.

Prediction: We will be seeing a lot of creative stuff as Nikki invents some new toe-free moves, focuses on extreme upper body work, single leg stuff, and seated what nots.

I concur with Puff’s prediction. grin

That guy’s just mad that you’re stronger than him, I think. What a chump. :slight_smile:

Sorry 'bout your toe. :\

yeah, sorry about your toe. and that your MP’s didn’t go the way you were hoping for the other day. i’m starting to realize how much of a role carbs play in my PB’s… nice work on the dips!

dude, that sucks…hope all is well…

Awww, sorry to hear about your toe and the lame douche at the gym.
I’ve only ever dropped a 10 on my foot an that resulted in a lot of swearing, but no damage. I hope you heal up soon.

I lost a toenail once and it grew back quite nicely. I just got my first big kite and I was dragging myself through the fields for hours ramming my toes into the front of my shoes repeatedly. It hurt to walk for a couple of days after that then the nail fell off in karate class a few weeks later. No pain, just gross.

Hope your toe feels better soon, Nikki~

Thanks for the comments guys, means a lot :slight_smile:

LS, why does it take weeks for the toenail to fall off?! Argh. I don’t want to be out of the gym long, so hopefully the pain will subside. It’s still bleeding though.

So, Puff and Kris, predicted right lol
I did a quick circuit at home this morning. First off, I’m majorly depressed. But my reasoning is this: if, as a sports psych, I work with athletes who gets injured, part of my job is keeping them from jumping off a roof. It’ll make me a hypocrite to be in the same foul mood, eating myself to oblivion.
So none of that. Despite a terrible sleep last night, I did kind of a total body circuit.

Let’s see:
4 Door pull-ups (from a dead hang each time)
15 1-leg elevated on chair push-ups (guess which leg was elevated lol)
10 Pike handstand push-ups (bad foot elevated)
Right leg- 10 pistols
Left leg (aka bad foot)- 10 1-leg squats kinda things on chair.

Luckily the left foot didn’t hurt, had to dig through with my heel so my toe wasn’t aware of the exercise

Did the circuit 3 times, feeling quite pumped actually. Later on I might do the same circuit, with some more stuff thrown in there. Like band abductions. Yay!
