My Left Shoe

Oh yes and be a very grateful participant!

Love the towel pull ups! They look like fun.

I lift at a University gym so theres no music other than dulcet tones of dumbasses half my age bragging about bicep burnouts.

Jim and I should take a trip to Montanna to meet my virtual bartender. And, of course, take a tour of your fabulous home gym.

BTW, bigjames, I have to call shenanigans on the “no hanky panky in the gym” rule. SO not fair.

Hungry-> thanks!

Joe-> the thought of that hurts my head. i hope u have earphones.

Hey ladies can I join the party? I even brought my own contribution to the bar…

A home gym sounds fun – and you never have to worry about it closing.
Oddly enough, I like the music in my school gym. It’s mostly classic rock. I’ve learned that if “Born in the USA” is playing, I will always make the lift.

the bar is quite well stocked. you may, however, bring a lolcat or a lemur. or something yellow, with white spots.

Will a yellow lemur do…

Tonight is a little red wine and grilled steak, maybe pumpkin pie with whipped cream later.

AAUUGGHH!!! The last three times I have been deadlifting the Indigo Girls have come on. I have an awesome gym and I can’t understand why they play such suck music. Kind of funny though.

Update for the day, because I know you’re all terribly concerned:

I’ve been rather snotty and sneezy the last few days. Random allergies, did the neti pot and claritin, etc.

I go to work today, and I discovered that my store doesnt clean/replace the air filters before they turn the heat on. How, you ask? The hot air, combined with the box fan (I work with morbidly obese women who are always, “too hot”), allowed crap to start sticking to the stuff that was dripping down the back of my throat. The result? Unexpected, unprofessional, random coughing in front of my patients. So awesome.

The bonus is that I got out of work in plenty of time to go to the gym for my deload squat. I had some fun:

Box squats, sets x10, focusing on explosiveness and speed.

bar
65
95
115
135x3
I alternated planks and bodyweight stepups during my rest periods.

followed with some random accessory work… a few leg extensions, some calf/calve/moo work.

Oh and the warmup/mobility crap.

I’m hanging out with a cup of green tea and some popcorn. they make my throat happy.

I haven’t tried that one - guess it’s pretty good, eh?

Got any Captain Morgan?

Captain Morgan’s and Dr. Pepper is AWESOME…wanna try one, over ice?

i’ll take a blue moon. and if one of u ladies would start dancing up on the bar, it’d be appreciated.

Yup, no hanky panky is allowed whilst lifting. There is a time and place and the gym even though it is private is not the place. We are there for one reason. To train period! But we do have a guest bedroom with a king size bed :wink: So you are welcome to come and play.

I’ve got you covered, Grneyes.

Do you want Coke with that, or would you want to try Dr. Pepper?

Here’s my offering, CBear:
