Aren't they great?!? I love how they just shred my obliques all to hell.
:-)
Biceps, triceps, and traps today. Did straight bar curls, cambered bar curls, and cambered cable curls. Followed that up with some overhead rope tricep extensions, tricep rope pressdowns, and v-bar press downs. Did some shrugs, up to 315 for a few sets. Then finished the lifting off with some modified high pulls while I was putting away the 45lb plates -- just a couple of sets; but my delts were a bit sore.
Went upstairs for some cardio. Planned to do 30 minutes of 10%/3.3mph on the treadmill; but some jerkface came to the treadmill next to me wearing boatloads of perfume.
:-) :-) <rant> Why in the effing world do people feel the !@#$%$^ need to come to the @#$%&$ gym wearing @#$% $%^loads of perfume and cologne. You're their to get dirty and sweaty. If you're not going to shower afterward, put the crap on in your car. If you're that stinky when you get up that you can't even stand your own smell, then maybe you should take a !@#^%&* shower for effin sake. </rant>
:-) :-)
Anyway, I couldn't breathe, so I had to cut it short at 22 minutes. To add insult to injury, I saw her leave the treadmill as I left the cardio area.

Pet peeve.
Maybe they figger they're going to get lucky or some damn thing.
One of those mirror boys just reeks of that shyt. (Can't take his eyes off hisself neither.
:-))
One group of girls that always work out together you can smell five minutes before they get there.
I think I'd rather smell a cigarette.

Yeah. I think because of my asthma, my lungs just start to close up when I'm around too much perfume or cologne. I literally can't breathe. My wife will put too much on from time to time and I just wince.... She doesn't like that.

Been amusing myself on the scale. Crazy how your weight can fluctuate up to six pounds from one day to the next. My weight is thankfully trending down.
Love them landmines Dokk was talking about a few weeks ago. Put them in my routine, and they are going to stay.
Envy those youngsters throwing around that big weight. The ones here too.
(Well, when I was your age, we didn't have no pink i-pods or.... )
Your weight does fluctuate both from day to day and throughout the course of a given day. I weigh myself no more than once a week.
Gotta try the landmines tomorrow when I do legs/abs.
Shoulders last night, felt pretty crap. Arnold presses, Upright rows and side lat raises and I was beat. Think I might be getting a sinus infection. I hate that crap

I don't know why I don't try to jump on this thread to motivate myself to stick to my routine. I fell off the bandwagon with training back in 2005. I probably didn't get more than a day a week in the gym since then. My rnew years resolution is to get back into the swing of things. My goal is to get back to how I looked in 2002.. Here is how I used to look, which is far from what I look like today.. In the pic, I am probably 230lbs @ 10-12% BF. Now, I am probably 225lbs, but closer to 20% BF (And weak as hell.. LOL)

Muscle memory, Kris...It will come back fast if you get back to consistency.

I didn't read into it but I'm sure it was. I'm thinking of trying VPX graham cracker next.

VPX is good....I am sticking with the ON 100%, good quality and I like the RR flavor.
Genetic Defect 12:35 AM 03-08-2009
ON 100% is still the best I had followed by muscle milk cake batter
