lolol thank you. I love heavy weights.


...HT - I don't ride a baike, but you can come back as the seat on my paddle scraper. I bounce up and down on that thing all day. lolol

i don't know what that is, but it sounded dirty. in. would it be wrong of me to watch you play on a pogo stick while i ate a bomb pop?

 

[the-short-one]

Ah, I think I remember that. I read your totals then & cowered in a corner, LOL.
I just put D.B. after my Dumbell exercises.

BTW, I am really impressed with your dedication to gym work, esp considering the type of work you do. You ROCK!

It's hard. I see 7pm bedtimes in my near future. I've fallen in love with working out, tho. So has my boyfriend. It's something we love to do together, and we support each other in diet and training. I think it would be a lot harder if I was doing it on my own...

I forgot to tell ya'll that my phtot-calendar-thingy got postponed. On the slate for next year, I'm afraid. I consider this good news. I was feeling a little weird about it, to be honest. I wasn't really looking forward to having my ass all over people's walls. lololol

Anywhooo - I've already been paid for it - so I expect they'll be setting a date in the spring. I told them I'm doing a bb show in march - so they may take advantage of that and take pics then.

This means I can eat. If you've been reading my log, you'll know that I've already been doing this. I found out about the postponement a week or so ago. I want to add muscle - so I'm playing around with diet.

I'n taking in around 2000 cals a day right now - I think I need to up that to 2500. I also need to start recording my food intake in Fitday again...

thanks everyone. GG - Jeff took it about the same as I did (I don't think he hogged on McDonalds, tho. lolol) I've only talked to him - haven't seen him. He's back in Sierra Vista and I'm in Tucson.

OK - My weeked was filled with travel. Saturday, I drove my son up to Prescott, stayed the night - then drove back down to Tucson Sunday. Checked into hotel and had oatmeal for dinner. My food the rest of the time was uneventful and boring. Protein bars, oatmeal, chicken. oi. I didn't work out those two days.

LEG DAY.

warmup = treadmill:
2 minutes brisk walk/3 minutes walking lunges/2 minutes brisk walk/3 minutes walking lunges

tried deadlifts today (with my belt on) and I backed off after the 4th set. I have problems with my lower back and shy away from stuff that might put me down. Even with my belt on, it hurt.

1 x 15/90 warmup set
1 x 10/130 sorta ow.
1 x 6/180 ow.
1 x 4/225 super ow. My legs can handle the weight - my back can't. I need to do good mornings and hypers, I think. Get my lower back stronger.


Sled super set - wide leg w/toes pointed out alternating with closed legs, middle of plate

1 x 12/180 + machine weight, wide legs
1 x 12/180 +machine weight, closed legs

1 x 10/270+ machine weight, wide legs
1 x 10/270

1 x 8/360+ machine weight, wide legs
1 x 8/360+machine weight, closed legs

1 x 6/450+ machine weight, wide legs
1 x 6/450+machine weight, closed legs

1 x 6/450+ machine weight, wide legs
1 x 6/450+machine weight, closed legs

...and then I crawled away. lolol Had to wait for my legs to regain strength so I could put the plates away.

standing lunges with leg elevated behind on bench
1 x 12/50 each leg
2 x 10/70 each leg

tried some new stuff today -

inner thigh machine

1 x 15/70
1 x 15/90
1 x 15/110
1 x 10/140
1 x 8/150

outer thigh machine

I have no idea how much weight. all the numbers were worn off the weights. We'll say...middle of the stack somewhere.

3 x 10/? mystery weight


butt blaster thingy. each cheek.

1 x 12/25
1 x 12/25
1 x 12/45
1 x 12/55
1 x 10/65
1 x 10/75 - and that bottoms out the butt blaster. I don't know if this thing works well. Who uses it? I didn't feel any burnin buns, really. well, at the end of the stack...but I felt like I was engaging too many other muscles. (?) someone school me on the butt blaster.

horizontal sled - buns clenched and hips raised on the push. down on the return...

1 x 12/110
1 x 10/130
1 x 10/150

...and my legs were burning so bad I almost fell down when I got off the thing. I had to sit down next to the machine for a few. people were starin. as usual. maybe the butt blaster does work. lololol

took some time to stretch out the hammys. David Henry works out at this gym. (he's an IFBB guy - and muscle tech sponsors him) He was working out with his girlfriend (who also has some muscles - mine are bigger ) while I was there. Saw him yesterday, too. IMO, he's got almost perfect symmetry. I saw him on stage at the O and he looked awesom - just a lot smaller than the other guys.

OK - I tried to use the hammy curl machine, but I'm too short and it just doesn't work. dammit. even if I slide way down on the bench. humph.

went to the standing calf raise. it fit, on the lowest "shorty" setting.

1 x 12/150
1 x 12/190
1 x 10/230
1 x 10/290
1 x 8/330

I was aiming to bottom the thing out when an old guy (70's with long white hair. almost down to his ass) asked me to quit. He said he just couldn't bare to watch me hurt my back, and could I please use the sitting calf raise? lolol He was sweet, so I quit. Besides, my legs were DONE. Lordy, I'm gonna be sore tomorrow.

Cooldown - stretched THOROUGHLY for approx 20 minutes.

I'm studying for a KA contractor's license - dual engineering. I take the test tomorrow and I think I'n nervous eating. lolol The good news is that I took the practice test and scored a 98 out of 100. All I need is a 70 to pass, so it looks like I may be okey dokey. I have a business law tes tomorrow also - that one is a breeze. 80 questions, also with a 70% pass rate. So, if I pass my tests, I have a license to build sky scrapers and bridges and stuff.

I was a little nervous about the math part, but I've got it hammered down. Some trig, some geometry, some calculus. (did I even spell calculus right?) Here's a sample question:

You have a trench that is 3500 ft long, 9 feet deep, and 3 ft 6 inches across the bottom The ditch slopes at a 1:1 ratio and the top four feet of the trench is 4 feet wide. You are using an excavator with a 3/4 yard capacity bucket. The soil swell rate is 25%. The excavator can remove 27.5 yards of dirt per hour. How many hours will it take to excavate the trench?

Hint. We're dealing in cubic yards and cubic feet.

OK, got it. It'll take me 45 seconds to cut a check to have you do it.

OK, got it. It'll take me 45 seconds to cut a check to have you do it.

lolol ok:


3500 x 9 x .5 = 15750 cf
3500 x 4 x 4 = 56000 cf
56000 + 15750 = 71750 cf
71750 cf/27(3 cubed) = 2657 cy
2657/27.5 = 96.62 hours

OK, the term I didn't understand was 1:1 slope. I took that to mean, over the length of the slope, it would have to be a 45deg angle. Something didn't compute. The rest was fairly basic algebra.

you're right about the 1:1 slope - 1 foot horizontal to 1 foot of fall. they trick you with the 1:1 slope. it doesn't even figure into the equation. bastards. it had me screwed up at first, too. they gave me the answers to the test, so it took me a while to figure it out.

I walked next door to Denney's to grab food for dinner. (I'm hoteling it) An older guy that works there came up behind me and started feeling my arms. He then proceeded to talk at me about working out and how fit he was and blah, blah,blah.

I don't mind people talking to me - it's the touchy feely stuff that bothers me.

Any of you ladies with big muscles feel wierd out in public sometimes? I get stared at all the time, and a day doesn't go by where someone aproaches me to comment or ask about working out. I'm not sure how I feel about the attention...

Hey. I'm not complaining. I like the way I look and I do it for me, but sometimes I feel like a freak in public. lolol Even at the gym. I went today around noon, hoping it would be quieter there. It was, but gawdam. It feels like eyes are on me all the time. (and they are, because i constantly catch people looking at me.) It just makes me self conscious, and then it makes me a little mad because I shouldn't feel self counscious. duh. Maybe I don't know how I feel.

Someone tell me what I'm feeling, dammit. I need therapy. lolol

WTF does soil swell rate have to do with that question? Is it raining or are you digging down into the water table?

 

[the-short-one]

WTF does soil swell rate have to do with that question? Is it raining or are you digging down into the water table?

when you dig up compacted soil, it swells...because it's not compacted anymore. compacted soil has moisture in it.

 

[HiDnGoD]

lolol ok:


3500 x 9 x .5 = 15750 cf
3500 x 4 x 4 = 56000 cf
56000 + 15750 = 71750 cf
71750 cf/27(3 cubed) = 2657 cy
2657/27.5 = 96.62 hours

I betcha it actually takes longer. Just removing the dirt is one thing. Keeping it trim & neat takes more time, not to mention you have to drive 60 yds to pile it.

 

[the-short-one]

I've been neglecting my logging. oi.

Good news - I passed both my tests. They gave me 6 hours to take both and I took them both in 1. lolol Yay!

TSO a question about the Melanotan II how much do you take? How often all that jazz thinking about giving up tanning and trying out Melanotan II.

 

[the-short-one]

TSO a question about the Melanotan II how much do you take? How often all that jazz thinking about giving up tanning and trying out Melanotan II.

you'll still have to get some sun. with melanotan, you have a loading phase. take it every day until you get to the color you want, then back off to onc a week or so. You'll have to hit the tanning bed for several days initially, but should darken up really quick. then you can back off to 1-2 dys a week in the bed. it depends on how ark you need to get. for contest, i wa thinking I'd take it every fday for a couple of weeks and tan those days, too.

I took a vial to Jamaica - 7 shots - and got hella dark. I was the same color as a couple of the Jamaicans. lolol They told me I should move there - I'd fit right in.

I have pics. I'll post them in a bit...

ok. I spent 10 day in Jamaica and it a heaven. I have a full body tan. I think I can officially declare myself a nudist. lolol. Damn, it felt good to swim and lay out sans clothes. I highly recommend it.

Out of th 10 days, I worked out 5. Very light. Did cardio on all 5 days. Eliptical or treadmill for 30 minutes. I ate a lot, but I ate very healthy. Lots of fish and fruit. I had desert every day, but only at dinner and the servings were small. I feel no guilt, and didn't gain a pound.

I need to catch up on my log for this week. I've been throwing down the protein for the last three days, and have also worked out. I'll list the gym details, and start my food log again tomorrow.

[the-short-one]

I'm thinking of breaking my deca shots down to twice a week. Once a week is making me break out on my thighs and back of shoulders. It's not severe, but it annoys me. It just starts to clear up by the time my next dose is due. I only have 4 weeks left, so can muster through it, regardless.
