I’m not sure yet. Maybe Diana can take the lead on that one.

Nice work.

Ddot, I would think you’d know me well enough to realise I don’t embellish my lifts. If anything, I’m conservative. You are a meany. I would have gotten a video but I specifically didn’t bring my camera for the express reason of not pushing heavy.

Thanks for the thumbs up though.[/quote]

To quote someone:

I did the smiley face. That makes anything not bad :slight_smile:

I had an odd and productive day.

#1: I think I have a potential new tenant. I posted brief info on Facebook and I got someone who is interested. The funny thing is, although the young man lives in this area, I was connected to him through Philip Stevens, a coach for Staley in Arizona. The kid sounds very cool and is into lifting and loves that I have gear in my garage. His girlfriend is into it as well. I think he’ll be over on Sunday to check the place out.

#2: Also on Facebook I was friended by a woman I don’t know but we have friends in common who are relatives. Turns out she’s a first cousin I never knew about who my aunt put up for adoption as a baby. Very cool. Although I have to say that my parents generation were very bad and did an inordinate amount of unsafe fucking. I have a ton of illegitimate cousins. I just never knew about Karen.

#3: I gave blood and had four cookies

#4: I went into the gym and had a body composition analysis done by Ddot. I’ve been so scattered I didn’t even think to bring gym clothes so we ended up in an empty room with me in my underwear. He was very professional about it. The results are:

Jackson/Pollock 7
Caliper Method

Chest:3 mm
Abdominal: 11 mm
Thigh: 8 mm
Tricep: 8 mm
Subscapular: 5 mm
Suprailliac: 7 mm
Midaxillary: 4 mm

Current weight: 56.5 kg (124 lbs)
12.21% body fat.

That is pretty low for a woman. Essential fat for a woman is 10-12%. I’m a bit disappointed with this. What it tells me is that I don’t have a ton of room to maneuver in my weight class. I’m going to be fine making weight for the Ottawa meet and should be good for worlds. However, I won’t be able to maintain it much longer. However, a couple of lifters have told me that they think I’ll probably get much (proportionately) higher lifts at 60kg. We’ll see.

Bars? I haven’t been to a club or bar in years Jules. 1 drink and I’m gone, can’t hold that stuff at all and I tried real hard back in the day LOL.
Sweet Pollyanna my ass.

Yeah, I’m not much a drinker either but I think Bunny was referring more the the ‘blowing’ aspect of the outing. I’m for sure out of practice there.

Dianab

OB_s is really all talk,and far far to much the firecracker
I think we should chip in for like a pool boy-
or a plumber or something.

kmc

I don’t get it either kmc, she’s around construction workers all the time, must be something to pick from.
I think it’s the self deprivation thing she’s doing, seems to work for her though LOL

I’m back in the room.

KMCNY, I certainly appreciate your non-offer to take one for the team. You are a rock star for that.

Fabio… blech.

I’m into short, stocky power lifting type guys. One of the guys I train with from time to time is helping me with the project and putting together a short list for me. Oddly enough, the one guy I mentioned, he says “Oh fuck. Not him. He’s bad news” Just goes to show you my abilities to look on my own behalf suck and are best left in the hands of others.

Criteria:

  1. Short - check (thanks Mom and Dad)
  2. Stocky - not quite blocky enough
  3. Powerlifter - I do have a valid CPU card so even if my total still sucks I get in on a technicality.

I think Meatloaf said it best - 2 out of 3 ain’t bad.

I’ll stop over after work today. :slight_smile:

Nah thats normal, any woman worth having wants a guy who isn’t going to let her run all over him. The problem is a lot of those guys also have tons of other bagage.

OB_s

It was a true heart or other area I felt it in, non-offer, I mean what are friends for,
sigh
fabio?
I mean he is like really high maintenance and unless he is bringing his own groceries,
or hair product- it would get old.

kmc

I found out a few weeks ago that tequila shots and wings are the best recovery meal ever. Just thought I’d share.

x2.

I picked mine out from mmgalb727’s demo videos…

“I want your spotter. Bring him to me.”

I also understand about leaving it up to someone else to pick out someone for ya… sometimes we are so busy looking at a tree we forget to see the forest.

had to throw some kind of wood analogy in there.
