Baby! I just want my log to be as entertaining as yours <3
90% is a lot lol. I guess not all of the college guys can be as strong and awesome as you
In 12 hours, I plan to be at the Expo. So… friggin… excited.[/quote]
<3 Your log is already much more entertaining!
Haha. Or they’re not as strong and as awesome as you! lol.
I also want to know what this expo business is?
OOH! Have FUN today!!
How you like those dead stop rows? <3
Fuck…you kill my ego. If there was any ever advantage to being a shorty, lifting would be it. You were MADE for this stuff!!
Hope you have an AMAZING time at the expo. Can’t wait to hear about it!
The bridge pic is fantastic. So creative and sexy.
Everybody else has said it, but damn, strong rowing babycakes! Can’t wait to start hitting the big weights again myself.
Thanks lovers! <3
The Europa BB is a pretty big thing in the South, and the last Expo was years ago. I walked out with a gym bag and a shopping bag full of free samples and even a shaker cup lol. I also bought a thermogenic from Panthera. Those guys were awesome and sexy beyond belief.
I took pictures with Mark Alvisi and Ava (yipee!) and also Erin Stern. However, I learned not to wear a midriff and stand next to Figure competitors and BBers lol
So I won’t post them. Or even keep them. You guys aren’t missing much anyway, the convention center was dark as hell and the guys who took the pics seemed to have unsteady hands.
But they were super sweet people.
I did get a compliment though. One of the vendors thought I was competing today. I was completely flattered haha
Let’s see; there was some kids’ wrestling, I watched a bit of that. Very interesting. There was an Olympic lifting competition. Very awesome to watch, the ladies looked beautiful and strong. I was totally jealous of their backs. The men and women did extraordinary there. I saw a bit of the Fitness competition by NPC competitors. The ladies were awesome. And that was pretty much the expo.
Today I’m taking as an off day. I could do legs but my calves are super sore so I imagine that I won’t get much done anyway.
MiM, I been meaning to do those rows for a long ass time, been floating around TN for months. If it wasn’t for the fact that someone was using the cable row, I still might not have tried them.
Anywho, they’re pretty awesome.
Last year they had a strongman comp at the Europas
YAY for free supps
BOO for no pics

grumble Kalle, you’re going to be hated because no one wants to see these pics, believe me.
There was no Strongman at this one. They had Crossfit though ![]()
Short and dumpy with tall and Figure-ey… Erin Stern.

Ava took this pic. As you can see the people in the background came out blurry and distorted, and I came out that way as well for whatever reason. Of course Ava came out perfect.
The blacking out was necessary =)
Funny story: I was telling my friend (who wasn’t able to go to the Expo because of work) everyone that I met. And I told him that I “met someone named Ray Lewis?”
He goes “Are you serious?! Take a pic!” I’m wondering why and he tells me that he plays football for the Ravens? shrug
The guy is cool, and I was wondering why he kept telling me that he wanted to look like the guy in the poster next to him (of course, it was signed Ray Lewis haha)
He said it jokingly of course, I mean, it WAS him in the poster
I still didn’t make the connection though, and he continued to give me samples of protein shakes and pre workout drinks.
I’m sure he doesn’t meet a lot of people like me. Being asked to serve instead of signing autographs ![]()

Short and dumpy my ass! You’re beautiful, lil one. And crazy strong! Your bench video earlier was awesome. You fit right in with the figure girls my dear.
I am highly doubtful you needed to black out anything. ![]()

You cra cra! You look great. I’m sure everyone is going to thank me.
Funny The baddest Linebacker in the NFL was trying to get you to recognize him.
If that is short and dumpy then short and dumpy is super hawt! Dont put yourself down like that you look great.
yeah. posture makes a world of difference and she’s probably dehydrated and stuff :-p you look great!
ooh. maybe there is hope for my back, then. i’ll try and keep an eye on it…
glad to hear you had a wonderful time.
ya, quit putting yourself down…
your more confident than that! Happy you got to meet your IDOL!!! ![]()
nice benching - you got me beat woman grumble
and the fair sounds fun when your on the other side of it. I’m stuck standing for 2 days straight handing out the goodies… glad to know you got a nice bag full of stuff ![]()
Nikki - Nice BENCH!!
Stop with the hating on the pics!
You’ve got a different build. Petite and strong. Still muscled up and looking good.
The LA Expo is a big deal out here every year. I didn’t go, but it sounds like a lot of fun. Next year.
Thanks for the comments guys =D
I’m quite… irritable at the moment so I’m going to be brief.
I planned on doing legs today but squats felt weird and I couldn’t get the same feeling from sumo deadlifts.
I think I got to 185 x 5 on squats and just wasn’t feeling it, then did 135 x 12 for sumos and decided to do shoulders and arms.
The only highlight of my workout was my pull-ups. I was able to do 5 wide pull-ups from a deadhang. I did 2 consecutive pull-ups with 10 pounds added from a dead hang as well.
Oddly, as I gain weight, my pull-ups get stronger.
Forgot to do FST-7 for shoulders, did the superset FST-7 for bis and tris though. V-bar Pressdowns and high cable curls.
Did plate pushes (90#) and waiter walks (light because shoulders were fatigued) for about 20 minutes. Then left.
I’m going to take a nap, I’m sure I’ll feel better afterwards.
I love that your pullups get better as you gain weight. Okay I don’t love that. I’m jello. SOrry the legs weren’t working for you today.
Haha, nice story about Ray Lewis. I was at the expo! I remember seeing a big poster of him (I think) but never saw him there. I did get to see Matt Kroc on my way out though, so the 12 hour drive was worth it ![]()
