Joe - I like the ergogenics whey - only the chocolate one. It’s a canadian company and as far as I know only distributed in this country. I like the fact that it consists of 4 ingredients: whey, chocolate, stevia and enzymes. That is all.
Plus the chocolate tastes good and the texture isn’t pudding-like which clashed in my oatmeal. You might find some on the net. If not and your interested I could always ship you a 2lbs I suppose.
Had planned my run with google maps only to lose myself in some little neighborhood streets. I ended up running a steady pace for 30 minutes and walking another 35.
I LOVE my camelbak. I am hopeless with a water bottle on my bicycle, so I wear it whenever I ride. You are looking very sex-ay in those pictures. Nice shorts!
Thanks for the thumbs up soldog and Kimba picture was taken before the run. After includes litres of sweat…def not as pretty. lol.
I sent my bike to the shop for a spring summer tune up. I’ll try to pick it up today so I can add it to my list of outside activities.
also on list for today: washing the kitteh which I usually do 1-2 times a year. I wash her in the kitchen sink then I take her to the balcony and comb all the loose fur out. she hates it to death and sounds like I’m trying to drown her but her fur looks so good and she sheds way less for a while. She is declawed on all 4 feet (indoor city cats has no use for those except on furniture).
finally if kitteh doesn’t kill me I shall make it to the gym.
yeah for fridays!
edit: hey Cbear - posted at the same time. Thanks for dropping in. and the ass love. can’t get enough of that.

Congrats on the PR. Sometimes that’s the way it is with deads. Your body takes them better after a break.
I did db rows after squats tonight and they kicked my ass too. I wasn’t doing 50lbs either.
So we decided to restaurant hop last night - one of my favorite activities. There was a massive burger with swiss cheese, plenty of bacon, (pan) fried mushrooms and all this goodness covered in a cognac and peppercorn sauce.mmmm. and 2 glasses of wine. 2nd stop was cappucinos and brownies. Third stop was checking out a new joint. Had grilled calamari salad and a 3rd glass of wine oh my god this was good. We are certainly trying that place again.
Joe: All this food should make my recovery rather easy. I actually feel pretty good this morning.
soldog: kitty is still hiding this morning and has turned me into a cat killer for all the neighbors that heard her cry.
Snap: poor woman, you really need a mini parent vacay.
O: My rows had a lot of swing in em - does that make em kroc or just bad? lol.
Mim: Hi survivor of crazy heat. hang in there and hunt the AC.
Kept it short cause I’m still a little fried from yesterday’s deads and we have another family BBQ today - on the husband’s side of the family this time.
pullups 1x1 - tried for 2 but no go.
with bands 3x5
mmm.
