I really do hope he somehow found this thread and is reading it with frightened curiosity.

People (guys) would pay for the right to be the only one that shows up. Then we make them cry by making fun of their outfits. Some people enjoy that sort of thing.

I also forgot about the guy that I took the power rack from when he finished… I set up the rack and had put two 5lb plates on the ground since I didn’t have my sexy workboots wtih me and wanted to elevate my heels. I was adjusted the safety height so the bar wouldn’t hit it at the bottom of my squat and he comes up to me all proud-like and says “My trainer told me not to elevate my heels like that”. Me: “Good for him”.
Clearly I win queen bitch of the night.[/quote]
I was just sayin’, that’s what he told me.

It took me a minute to get what you were saying.
Does he also tell you to curl in the rack?

I don’t know if he told him that, but he did tell him that half-squatting 105lbs was the best way to get your legs toned without getting HYOOOGE.
I was a bitch and told him to leave that weight on so I could warm up. I later took it off to warm up properly but I was feeling like a supreme bitch.
In fact, the guys on my dodgeball team decided last night that I had been skipping my bitch pills a little while back and have been doubling up as of late to catch back up. They might be on to something…
A little more angst might be just what you need to really kick start your workouts haha

You two should get married.
I hate you both.
However, no Todd, I don’t consider what I do a workout. I consider it training. Working out is what every other douchebag at the gym does. Me, I train. So fuck you.

When you say every other douchebag at the gym that kind of implies you are also a douchebag that trains as opposed to works out. Semantics I know but I thought I would point that out.
Now personally, I wouldn’t call you the hard core training douchebag, mostly because that seems to be a guy thing. I’d go more with the hard core training, emasculating bitch with good hair sometimes. I mean this in the nicest possible way because quite frankly, I admire that in a person. Especially the good hair part.

I was going to point that out O but you beat me to the punch. (Geez, you spend one night with a short stocky bald guy and now you’re going off faster than most men! C’mon now O!)
Anyway, I wouldn’t call Court a douchebag, although at times she does have some of the same ‘qualities’. Let’s just say at times she participates in douchebaggery.
Douchebaggery - The philosophy held by douchebags, holding that no one other than themselves (or perhaps their close associates) matters in the least bit, and thus that other human beings can and should be treated like complete excrement for little or no reason (and often for selfish reasons).

Wait, is the “good hair sometimes” bit a compliment or an insult? Because I would read that as, “You occasionally have good hair, but most of the time it looks like a long-haired cat took a dump on your head.”

No need to duck, I quite concur with this analysis. For example, O matters. The rest of my PL teammates matter. My family matters. You, Todd, you don’t matter.

Can she answer this after Saturday when she’ll actually see me wear my hair down? As of now the only time she’s seen my hair not in a ponytail/bun of sorts was on Sunday when I took it out to fix it because it kept getting caught between my back and the bar and was pulling when I squatted… but you’re right, I’m pretty sure she was saying it looks like a long-haired cat took a dump on my head…

Overall, a much better session than Sunday. My squats felt tons better and I actually got my single the first time around.
Apparently the kid thought I was in a bitchy mood tonight and that I should “do something about it”. I actually don’t think I was bitchy, just a little short and not as much fun as I can usually be. He almost cried a few times. After he told me to do something about it, I told him I was PMSy and there wasn’t a whole lot I could do about it unless I became a man, but then I’d have a whole other set of issues. He didn’t know what to say to that, so walked back to where he was getting ready for squats.
We got our first bit of snow today which means nobody knows how to drive. The roads weren’t bad where I was, but people were driving about 30km/h on the highway. Right. Cuz THAT’S not going to cause accidents when people get pissed at you.
So I went and saw the super-duper Chiro/ART guy that all the powerlifters love. He told me what was wrong and how we were going to fix it and did some treatment. I’m a little sore now, but I feel better knowing what’s wrong.
Bad news however is that I can’t squat or deadlift until at least next weekend. He’s testing me again in a week and how that goes will dictate if I get to squat and/or DL that Sunday. Good news is that I’m still 9 weeks out from my meet.

The thing we’re all eager to know:
-
Will you be able to play the harpsichord?
-
Did he adjust your attitude while you were there?
I’m glad you liked him. In my opinion, he is a rock star of chiropractors.
Thought I’d let you ladies know that I’ve officially graduated to putting 25’s on the straight bar for curls, so that power rack’s gonna be legitimately used now
