Debilitating

JustCallMeDave · 12-04-2006, 09:05 PM

Just poured myself a nice tall cold one and went to lift it from the counter...and couldn't. Dead weight, and it startled the heck out of me.

Nothing like bicep day at the gym.

Two Saturdays ago I sat down to work on the computer awhile and couldn't stand back up. Yep, quads day. And lets not forget tomorrow (shoulders) when I have to prop my elbow up on the shower stall wall so that I can raise my arm high enough to shave my head.

I've been working at this form of masochism now for about six weeks, and love watching the progression in my daily log book. However, the humor of my paying someone money to allow me to abuse my body in rotating groups doesn't escape me.

For those of you who are considering hitting the gym again after the first of the year I have two words for you that will help your success greatly: workout partner. It's kept me going, and I owe him plenty for helping out.

Now if I only had one of those long crazy straws so I didn't have to lift this glass.

I found this photo of the Dave Action Figure at the bottom of an ifishstock thread. Watch out AUP Violators!

I just sheet rocked the living room. Those guys are studs that do that. All that over head lifting. I'm with ya on the straw operation. I wish I had a workout partner last weekend.

You body is like a car, the more you use it the faster it will wearout. Delegate the exercise to the action figure and concentrate on the 12 ounce curls is my recommendation.
