If you’re using hook grip, tape your thumbs. It makes it a bit less painful and allows you to really squeeze the fuck out of your thumb. Hook grip is awesome.

I don’t know about making it less painful (never taped my thumbs until I’d been hooking for years) but the tape keeps me from tearing my thumbs to shit, which never used to happen but does now for some reason. Either way, using a hook grip will hurt if you’re doing it right, at least until your thumbs toughen up and/or get used to it.

Ohh, no it still hurts. Just the taping the thumbs make me keep the thumb ‘tighter’ (not sure what work I’m looking for), which makes it not hurt as bad being squeezed against a metal bar.
But I huge hands, so gripping with the hook grip came pretty easy to me after a month.

Ahhhhhhhhhh.
Ass day tomorrow, boooooooooo.
FUCK WORST/NOT REALLY THAT BAD of a dream last night
It was about BG so if you don’t want to know don’t read anymore…
We were on a balcony. Actually, it was the balcony outside Fraser Crane’s house.
We were at a party at Fraser’s house.
I said to him
“Why do you hate me?”
And he said
“Sometimes when you’re mean to someone it makes them hate you.”
I said
“But you were really mean to me and I still like you” and then my face went like :(((( <— biggest frown evah
ANd then he put his hand on my cheek and was going to kiss me
I think we had sex
it felt like I was having sex, but we were still wearing clothes
I still felt penetration, hahahah
Fucking weird.
Leave me alone sub conscious you are sooOoOOooOO annoying!!

Log lurker here 
Glad you didn’t flounce off into the sunset after the other thread, and you can continue to entertain me

You know I was going to. I threw a big ol’ pitty party for myself and sobbed uncontrollably reading that thread even after I promised myself I was going to stop looking at it.
But I feel a lot better now.
I don’t think I’m as messed up as people started making me out to be.
I’m awkward and quirky, but when I actually go out I end up having great conversations with people. It’s just that it typically only happens maybe 3 times a year because I’m a super-hermit.
I also don’t think there’s anything wrong with the things I am interested in or the stuff I bring up to talk about.
If some guy doesn’t fancy talking to me about superhero’s and video games how in the bloody hell would we ever have a relationship?
And sure it sucks that I have such “guy issues”, but it’s not really as if my life is so empty that I can’t deal with it, ya know?
Like, I’m working a lot at a job that I love, my dreams and goals gym-wise make me excited to wake up every morning (and keep me up at night for that matter), and my kid enjoys being my date any time there’s a place I want to go to or a movie I want to see.
My life is good. I’m very lucky.
Most people here don’t really know me, and how could they possibly know what’s best for me or what’s wrong with me when they’ve never actually met me?
Just gotta follow my gut is all I suppose and stop worrying about what everyone else thinks.
K ass day
NOW, I know what you’re thinking.
Ass day again Jenn?!
Well, yes, I had to switch it around because I open Saturday and I didn’t want to do intervals in the afternoon because I’m more likely to be farty at that time and no one likes a treadmill farter.

Um…

Hmmmmmm
No, good.
Okay so I have some news:
Today a woman approached me and asked if I was going to compete.
Something I get asked at the gym often actually, and I gave my typical
“Ya maybe in like 5 years when I have the confidence. I dunno. It’s always in the back of my mind, but I honestly can’t even walk in heels so I’d make a total ass of myself”
So she started saying she’s always wanted to do it, but has never gone through with it. ANd right now she’s going through a divorce and thought it would be a great thing for her emotionally to do a show, but with money issues yadda yadda.
I was like “okay, well if you compete, I’ll compete”
And she was like
“Ya that’s what I was getting to. I am going to compete, I have officially made the decision and I am going to hire a coach today.”
So I was like
“Oh shit, now I have to compete”
And she’s like
“Ya it’s 16 weeks away girl”
I was like
:S
She told me who she was hiring (this little trainer guy at my gym who I always see training that hot womenzz) and that we’d make a great support system for one another.
THere’s also another lady who she talks to that is going to compete as well.
I guess maybe I can go through with this. It’s basically all I think about and it’s not like it’s a life or death situation. I’ll either do good and feel awesome, or do shitty and feel awesome that I did it even though it terrified me.
I ran a marathon.
Not only that, but I finished in decent time even though I consumed Gatorade half way through and that stuff gives me the shits.
There was at least 10 minutes of porta-potty time in there.
I did a powerlifting meet even though I knew I’d be one of the weakest ones there (truth)
I also did a talent show in grade 7 even though I got harassed daily and had no friends or talents to actually perform
LOL.
HOWEVER, some concerns:
I would need to hire someone and that scares me because I like planning my own workout routines. I have a pretty good handle or what exercises work well for me and what I think doesn’t benefit me very much.
Maybe I could just hire a diet coach?
But then who?
I could hire that dani shguahrntn person who’s married to that chris shguanntunt person ? Cause I creep her website all the time and she’s kind of my idol.
Or I could do some research ?
I think now is as good at time as ever.
I have good family support. I can afford it because I am still at home and I was thinking I wont move out until Gabe has to start JR high and change schools anyway…?
OK
Thinking finished
Chest day the best day tomorrow!
