hahahahahahahahaha five kids!
I’m #4 of 5.
Maybe if mom had been a gymrat… oh well my circus freak genes kicked in anyway.
give em a stick and tell em to dig a hole.
also, i’ve found waterbaloons are crack laden. or just a sprinkler and a hose.
Circus? Well that’s what you get if you treat your vagina like a clown car.
Good luck with that, Kimba. I’m with Tal - I am not a kids sort of person.

Radical as it may sound, I have no TV.
There is always somewhere to run. Ask any mother.
Cal, your word choices never fail to, umm, amuse me.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! well done, ma’am!
but seriously. my dad’s grandfather was a slackrope walker, among other things, in barnum and bailey’s circus. discussing my freakish obsession with physical accomplishments (both in the bedroom and out), he told me im built like, and have the skill of, his grandfather. apparently also his temper and intelligence.
weirdest compliment from my father ever.
snap, i dont have a tv either.
kimba- you can have your log back now.
Great work on all the dips. That is totally kick ass. For some reason they kick the crap out of my shoulders. Not doing them right I expect. Get a dip belt. It’s also good for weighted chins.
Have fun with 5 kids. I’m not much of a kid person and I have 2 of my own. Seriously is it legal? Isn’t that kind of like having 5 cats or something and the ‘authorities’ show up and cart them away.
watch out for cartoon network though…straaaange shows on there these days.
I have no idea how moms do this 24/7. Two days and I’m utterly wiped out. They left this AM and I was not sad.
I did have fun. But as a novelty item. Once again I’ve confirmed that breeding would have been an error of enormous proportions.
Glad you all had fun while I was occupied. CBear, why does your circus gene not shock me? Why?
TV, I have one. I’m not a big watcher of the TV, leaving that to the husband. My big time suck is surfing the net.
Yesterday’s breakfast was blueberry pancakes with real maple syrup and a pound of bacon. Today is back to normal eating, which frankly I prefer. Carb hangover anyone?
O, dips seem to wreck havoc on some people’s shoulders and not others. I suspect its not technique, but just the way your body is built that makes this exercise difficult.
Today I’ve gotta make up for all the work I missed the last two days. Gym tomorrow.
Did I mention how tired I am? Damn.
Well let me be the first to congratulate you on your recent survival exercise!
I’m very familiar with the carb hangover. Pancakes always made me feel like crap when I ate them in the US, so I avoid them now.
I did, however, eat 8 hot cross buns at Easter and felt hungover the next morning. Not only carbs but wheat, which I avoid as much as possible (and with good reason!) But damn, buns are so good.

HIIIIIIIIIIII!!! waves
glad you made it. two days, WHEW!!
LOL! Cal - the clown car comment was priceless!!! HAHAH!
Pancakes are amazing for refeeds - otherwise they’re utterly useless, albeit tasty.
Hi Kimba!!
And CDQAR - i just bought black on black chucks just like yours 
Congrats on surviving 2 days with 5 kids! I’m sure you did awesome! I cannot wait to be a mom but not of 5 kids! 2, maybe three if it was an accident. I don’t want the tiger to be too old to be an active dad (he’s 12 years older than me).
Pancakes are awesome. We have whole wheat ones on the weekends. When the tiger buys some vanilla protein we will add that to them as well.
Claire’s circus gene does not surprise me at all. I’m just glad she’s not from a family of clns. Clns are evil. I even hate them so much even the word frightens me.

PODH…you can PM them if you want, just sayin’
lol@ “3 kids if it was an accident.”
Kimba- you ate a pound of bacon?? sweeeet.
Blueberry panckaes adn a pound of bacon sounds like a great way to carb up.
^^^^^
That’s the ‘warm-up’ before the steak and eggs.
Greeney, I do understand about the clown hatred. Clowns leave me indifferent, not freaked out nor entertained.
CBear, did your older sibs beat the living crap out of you? Because the younger kids were getting mercilessly picked on by the older ones. How do moms stand the “he hit me first. no SHE hit me first” constant noise?
Betty & Joe, I did not eat a pound of bacon. The hungry young savages ate the bacon, leaving me but a savory, tasty piece or two. Luckily there is a leftover pound of bacon and a dozen eggs in the fridge for just me and the husband.
There was steak for dinner (right on CDQ!). And lobster…lots of lobster. Surf and turf rulz.
I also discovered the deliciousness of Mike’s Cranberry Hard Lemonade. This, I did not need to know.
So, life is back to normal 'round here. Today’s training by necessity had to be outside the gym with the undulating ropes and the TRX because the main part of the gym is getting a new floor and the place is chaos incarnate.
Undulating ropes
3 sets
TRX pistol squats, lunges, inverted rows, elevated pushups, flyes, feet up/belly up crunches
10# medicine ball sit ups held overhead
Lots and lots of planks (can I say how much I fucking hate planks? thank you.)
This is a deload week for me, and I think this bodyweight training was good for that.
An upcoming beach-trip mini-vacation will wreck my usual Sunday training. But if I pack along my 12 kg KB, I bet that I can get some stuff done in the hotel.
fuck the hotel, bring the workout to the beach! kettle bells and bikini ftw! this event would need pics fo sure!
surf and turf totally rulz. now I want lobster you big meanie! lol.
vacations rule!! I’d like one right about now please…
I had a question tho…when you go biking, do you do minutes or miles? I want to take my bike out for a spin sometime and there is some serious mileage to cover around this base!
N., we are cycling to the beach and there is no way that the KB is going on my bike. Bodyweight exercises on the beach! Or perhaps KB by the hotel pool.
Betty, I judge my rides by time. Back when I was a more serious cyclist, I would be more concerned about mileage. Now its just time spent pedaling that I note.
