I sleep with a pitbull and a .45 get it right people lol
WhiteFlash- hahahaha yeah thats kinda messed up huh? lol… Almost threw down some dunks at the local Rec Center. I wrote a kinda long post about it in the Vert thread.
Masch- Slore? I dont get it? (maybe its my new found old age kicking in)
Ahu- A machette? Damn man thats some serious business. That definitely one ups my ceremonial sword hiding in the living room lulz
State Champ- you gotta be prepared at all times. Its better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it… But if I was you I would just strategically place bottles of baby oil around the house and if someone comes in, oil up real quick, and wrestle the shit out of em. BALLGAME!
MAsteve- I almost got out of bed and went outside to try to find something to stab. Ok no I didnt but still.
MiM- Mace is a pretty good idea. you can go to sporting good stores and that have that industrial strength bear spray mace. That would kick some serious robber ass. I might have to invest in a can of bear spray. Have you ever been pepper sprayed before? Its so much worse than the bootcamp gas chamber thing. I even got tazed once for fun… pepper spray was by far the wrost. People were breaking into cars on base? Thats super lame.
Nikki- You getting at me and my log for the lack of actual logging going on in here? Come and me bro! 
I know I dont really log over the weekends. I’ve had a pretty busy schedule lately with social events on the weekends and havent been keeping up on my log so i’m sorry ok g’s! I didnt “hope” that it was a break in but once I thought that it possibly was a break in I was prepared.
Ink- You’ve spotted the elusive, seductive, attractive, gym going cougar babe formerly known as PowerPuff? Its a beautiful thing when you see the rare glimps of them in their natural habitat
Blaze- first of all, looking wide in the new avi man. Siiiiiiick! secondly, yeah isnt it so weird when things like that happen? so random. Maybe one of your buddies was messin with you.
PowerPuff- Guuuuuuuuuuuess what? I tried out a new gym yesterday and they had a hexbar! So sweet! I was pumped.
Danyrat- Ok from now on i will sleep with them under my pillow so the hypothetical robber cannot hypothetically steal my own self defense weapons and use them against me. Good thinking. You are a forward thinker and I like it.
JAM of the DAY… So awesome:
Ok so my chick and I checked out a possible new gym yesterday. it is literally 2 blocks from out new place. We went there last night to check it out and have a 3 day pass. There were some things that I really liked about the place and some things I wasnt that much of a fan of:
PRO’s:
they had WAY better and way more pull up bars than my old gym
the classes are all free (gonna do a boxing class tomorrow night. The teacher is a two time golden gloves winner)
they had a hex bar
they had TRX straps (mostly for my girl)
they had Kettle Bells (the heaviest was only 44lbs though)
incredibly close to the new place
CON’s:
no basketball court
no rowing machine
not a lot of hot babes
the DB’s arent the rubber coated kind
So we’re gonna try it out and see whats up. I honestly dont really have a strong feeling towards either one so its gonna be whichever one she wants to go to.
So we went in there yesterday and I did a quick chest thing while she did her warm up and stretching. I felt pretty tired all at the gym because I didnt have enough carbs throughout the day and I played a lot of basketball at the Rec Center right before heading to the gym.
BB Bench:
worked up to 3x5 @ 275 (again)
drop set to 225 x 10
DB Incline:
80’s x 12, 12
90’s x 8 (slow negatives on all my incline stuff and didnt lock out. The weight didnt really feel heavy but I was super wobbly feeling. good pumpz)
Dips:
3 x 20 BW
Then I went into the little outdoor area of the gym with my fiance and did a circuit with her:
20kg KB Swing Right Arm x 12
20kg KB Swing Left Arm x 12
20kg KB Goblet Squat x 12
TRX Inverted Row x 12
Jump Rope 100 times
rest 60 seconds
We did that 4 times (she used a lighter KB) and then hopped on the pec deck for a finisher. After that we jogged home and then went out for sushi for dinner. The nigiri special was fresh blue fin tuna. OMFG it was insanely good! had a $100 sushi tab last night. I was so hungry
Now today I’m waiting for the Cable guy to show up and FINALLY hook up our internet and TV, if it doesnt take to long I’m gonna hit the gym, but if not when my fiance gets home she’s taking me out to dinner for my bday. I’m excited. Thanks for checking out my log that I’m actually kinda logging in now (NIKKI)

I think we have a winner
Ok so here is a little picture of how I look currently. I dont really have a good spot to take pictures in my new place so thats why I havent posted any since living here. The bathroom mirror is super small and gets really washed out from window behind me (in the pic) but with the blind on there its not so bad. This is what I’m working with right now. A little softer in the midsection than I would like but I’m gonna tighten that up over the next couple weeks.
I’m not exactly trying to get Bug “OMFGimSOrippedANDawesome” lean but just a little tighter than I am now.
EDIT: Not too happy with how things are lookin in that pic TBH.

Yeah, you’re looking large there, fatty mcfatterson.
Ha! Whatever, Capt. Hawtabz! <3
Happy Birthday broheim!
Oh and re: the new gym…location is important, but if you don’t think you’ll be able to kick some ass there, don’t sign up. Environment is crucial, PLUS, the elusive “Puff” isn’t at the new place, so you’d be missing out on that one.

grooms fingernails Hmm? Oh hai Greg!
I like how things look in the pic. You negative, muscle dysmorphia, fat eumorphia (yes I made that up) nay-sayer. You look awesome.
I think the new gym sounds great. You did say that you wanted a hex bar. And you can’t be 100% sue about the hot babes since you only been there for a short while ONE night of the week.
I have something to say in response to Kalle but I’ll hit on him later in his log so as to not derail this fine, sometimes being-logged-in log 
Ink- Didnt say I was lookin fat… just that I’d like to tighten things up a bit. Thanks for the B-Day wishes. Environment is huge… I’ll get a feel for it over the next couple days and see whats up.
Nikki- Yeah I was pumped on the hex bar. I really like those things. “Fat eumorphia”?? I’m gonna use that one
You know, a much easier and more fun way of tightening things up would be to increase muscle mass all over
To see if the other gym will mesh with you or not, tell that BBQ joke to a few members, see how it goes.

Haha thanks man. I’m not sure, I feel like any of my friends would have at least texted me about it or something. Happy Birthday!
;(
I didn’t read the birthday part. I read the sushi and dinner part. Hmm.
Happy birthday Amor! And don’t put important news around words related to food, apparently my reading comprehension ceases 0=)

I’ll work on that part. I want to add some more size to my back and shoulders.

Funny that you should say that… The next little town (or area or whatever you call it) over from where I live (North Park) is the gay area of San Diego… So i was noticing more than a couple dudes there that were playing for the other team. I definitely dont want to go throwing out that joke at the gym. Someone would probably try and take me up on it lol

Hillcrest? Don’t forget, I was stationed at MCAS Miramar for 4 years, I’ve heard of it. Unless there’s another gay part…totally possible.

You’ve “heard” of it wink-wink lol
hahaha yeah man its Hillcrest. Hillcrest and Northpark are separated by Park Street. I’m two blocks from park street. Being near Hillcrest doesnt bother me at all but it was a little weird getting checked out by other dudes in the gym though.
i was with my chick so I’d just give her a smack on the ass or something whenever that happened lol. Had to assert my hetero-ness
Greg, this is the perfect opp for you to be doted on. Thikn of all the free RTD’s you could pull if you show some skin
<3 the shoutout.
I just wanna get ripped mcRipperson’ed so that when I start gaining I don’t look like a fat mess in 2 weeks.
JEEZ.
WHOOO! 1 YEAR CLOSER TO DEATH!
sorry, just channeled Rockula. Happy bday bud
Happy Birthday Greg!!
And I don’t know doll, i think you look pretty darn good!
I totally love checking out new gyms! And since I go to a commercial, I can use gyms all over the 5 boroughs. I even go to specific gyms just to check out the clientele (bay ridge = guido central = BINGO!). So I totally understand, environment is a big deal. Plus, when you go into a gym, you have to claim your space, no? How are you going to go smashing weights if you’re afraid to drop something on the old lady using the good girl/bad girl machine?
On the plus side, if you like getting cougar attention, just think of all the attention you’ll get from the gays? Hm, Mr. Popular?
btw, i like that you count the 100 jump ropes.
ps. I thought “slore” was part of the Cali lexicon. I just like that it rhymed.
It’s your Birfday??
EAT CAKE!!!
Blaze- yeah you’re probably right, they woulda said something by now… thats weird man?
Nikki- Thanks for the bday wishes. I love me some sushi. I wanted to go get more last night
hlss- I literally have no clue what you are talking about man? lol
Bug- hahaha lulz @ “fat mess in 2 weeks”
DF- harnessing your inner giant black vampire huh? Thanks man
Masch- thanks. Yeah new gyms are fun to check out… I was just there and was definitely getting some looks. Not from the coug’s though 
You know I gotta count my rope jumps. With my headphones in I cant tell when my watch timer goes off so I just go by jumps.
MiM- Go Shawty!
Ok so I didnt get to the gym yesterday cause it was my bday. My girl took me out to a steak house last night (kinda becoming my birthday thing) and had some filet mignons. It was awesome. Had a great birthday night… so much fun
Went to the gym this morning. Wanted to get in a little back work out but it turned into a back/legs workout before a near catastrophe struck!!!
wide grip pull ups
4x10
Power Cleans
135 x 2 x 10
185 x 2 x 5
Pendalay Rows
185 x 10
225 x 3 x 8
DB Rows
worked up to the 120’s x 2 x 12 (120 is the highest DB = sad face)
Squats (no lock out. continuous squats)
185 x 12
225 x 10
275 x 8
315 x 5, 5
Walking Lunges
135 x 3 x 10 steps each leg
I was prepping for my next lift when my headphone got pulled out of my ear… the only thing was that the actual rubber in ear part WAS STUCK IN MY EAR!!! I dont now how it go way up in there but I tried to get it out and I accidentally just pushed it deeper. I almost started to panic but I just put away my things and ran home (its only half a mile to my house)
I got the tweezers out and tried to pull it out but couldnt get it. I was seriously starting to get worried but after a few minutes it came out. I was afraid I was going to have to go to the doctors and get it removed/get a lecture like a little kid “now listen here, dont go sticking things up your nose again johnny” lol
So that kinda ended my workout prematurely. Not sure if I’m gonna go back and get a few more lifts in or if I’ll just relax since we’re going back tonight for an hour long boxing class. We’ll see.
Lol Greg your stories, I swear =D
I’m sorry about your panic. But damn, you got in a pretty good workout before the catastrophe struck.
I’ll say that what you did is enough to call it a day. Rest up for your boxing class. Sounds fun.
