The Greatest form of Art -- And how to see it

[Citruscide]

C,
That's some good shit man. I love that moment.

That's just it... the training boys (and women) know what I'm talking about... being there, you know.

I suppose, if you don't understand you can always make a funny rib on my experience.

C-ditty

Re: Re: The Greatest form of Art -- And how to see it

guys - citrus made a few typos. here's the corrected version

Tonight, I strapped up my new Nike Power Gloves... went into my backyard ready to do some gardening ... tonight, however, I saw the geraniums in a different light ... frightened and skirrud, i ran off to the gym to do cardio.

After I did my preliminary warmup sets of flat db press with the 15s, I stood in front of the bench... the flatly-sewn hem of my pink umbros hugging close to my tidey whities... which is quietly leaking urine down my leg... unknown because I couldn't draw my eyes away from the sexy beast of a man doing cable crossovers... the two towers that represent his chiseled, tanned thighs... but i digress... the flat, horizontal board, covered in a black cushion awaits me... inviting me, drawing me towards it... so I go... but not before itching my balls for 5 minutes

I find myself staring at the linear steel bar loaded with a quarter plate on each side above my eyes... as I reach out for it... my eyes start watering... my throat acquires a throbbing lump... embracing my body for the sobbing fit it is about to unleash ... my mouth opens and closes on my thumb in anticipation... my umbros are soaked... i let out a final breath of air... as the bar raises off the supporting towers that again remind me of man thighs....

I lower the weight back onto the rack in a burst of power, will and guts the tears flow from my eyes like water from a busted fire hydrant... i am frightened... I then grab my widdle teddy bear from the floor beside the bench... sit up, turn around and see the 95 lbs of pure, iron weight on the rack...

I take the plates off the bar... knowing the Art of Defeat...

C-Poopies

LMAO That's was great. Cheers

C,
To add to your highlight reel. I went into the gym yesterday and knew I had to do chest. Warmed up and put 310 on the flat. Pumped out 8 real nice. Put it up. Then I realized, I have been negelecting inclines. Lord Suston's plan of hitting the inclines first to equal the strength came to mind. I took off all the weight on the flat bench and went over the the incline barbell station. Put on 275. Mind you, I haven't ever lifted this much on incline ever. I typically use 225 for reps. I get under the 275, kid asks me if I want a spot. I decline. I take the bar and rep out 6. I did four more sets of 6,6,5,5. Totaling five sets in all. I couldn't believe how much different it felt to hit the upper chest that hard. Immediate swelling. What a great feeling. I looked at myself in the mirror with the 275 on the incline watching it go slowly up and down, under complete control. One of lifes littles pleasures. Truly.

Not bad at all once you get used to it, did you do flat after??? That is some good numbers as well I think I might be able to get there soon, just got back for a small hiatus and am taking it slow for a week.... I hope you stick with it for at least 6 weeks and see what kind of results you get
