Ave Training Week 2, Day 5: Weight Workout

Today's gym workout went extremely well. I also should mention, I was listening to the Mike O'Meara Show Podcast. You must listen to this show! If you ever listened to the old Don & Mike Show, or the Mike O'Meara Show that followed after Don Geronimo left, you know how good this show is. Mike O'Meara has the old crew, along with Oscar Santana from the Big O & Dukes Show on WJFK.

OK, now for the workout.

  • 09:04:43: Yesterday during my warmup at the gym I was by myself in the cardio room and was about to let one go, when a woman came in. D'oh!
  • 09:19:15: I told someone on FB who was complaining about snow that they needed to call Mr. Plow...
  • 09:19:32: The response was, "We don't have anything like that here, but I wish we did! I wish I could call Mr. Plow."

  • 10:27:24: Don't go telling me about how you know, you didn't click on anything, that's why you called me. Just listen and use the information.
  • 10:28:56: And also, don't get your tongue pierced and still a year later lisp because you haven't gotten used to it yet. Thanks.
