Ah heck Rad, I did not think you'd hold that against me. Though I did have a professor hold it against me in College. He said I think with the wrong side of my brain, and short of called me stupid!
Needless to say I ended up with a C- and tried like hell! It was no big deal, I did not like the professor or the damn subject anyway!

I think the professor meant that you think with the creative right-hand side of your brain, not the analytical left side. If he implied that you are stupid, he really was an idiot.

I usually got an "F" when I didn't like my professor.

Ya, the truth is I am very creative and have always been. I can draw, I can write poetry, I am a dreamer, and I can............. OK, lets leave it at that!
But, he meant to say lefthanded people were stupid, and yes he was an idiot!
Oh well, I have to go. I need my beauty sleep, something has to make me look better. Nothing else has worked yet, so maybe If I sleep long enough I can wake up as someone else!
See Ya Rad

Hyper extentions, 4 x 25 x 20

A buddy of mine is competing in a powerlifting competion this weekend. Tonight was his last night of training. I helped spot him. He came in high and more reps than expected in all three lifts. At 165 lbs, he is going to be awesome. I am impressed with how much he has increased his strength in 12 weeks. (He is still skinny. )

Glad you enjoyed the day at the gym Rad. The workout looks good.
Hey, is this much younger, because if hes' that skinny maybe you need to compete you look pretty good to me and you have a cut body, not a skinny body.
HAVE A GREAT DAY RAD.

hhahahah, If I go in there showing off my chiseled body (yeah, right), they would throw my butt out of there. This is a powerlifting competition. Skinny, fat, average bodies don't matter, just the ability to Bench Press, Squat and Deadlift big ass heavy weight. He is 47 (just a kid) so there won't be much competition in the below 50 (y.o.) and below 165 lbs class. There is one next July after my bodybuilding meet. I just might give that a shot just for the fun of it. (I don't know how many powerlifters live to be my age. )

WHAT!!! You are a young man still yourself! Hey, don't knock the age. I know how men your age think, and I like it.
I have a lot of friends in their 60's but the only thing they lift is 12oz. bottles!:lol:
You are a cut above the rest my friend, so you are by far healthier than a lot of men half your age, so BE PROUD RAD.
You are OK in my book.

I feel your pain. I'm personally sick of working out in glorified spas. The Golds I go to has a sign that says no chalk, and says no loud grunting or screaming while lifting. All of the weights are rubber coated and there is no rust.

It's hard to feel 'hardcore' when you lift with such pretty equipment.

There is a gym in downtown Atlanta owned by Lee Haney himself and it is the next place I will go to train. It is a mans gym for sure.

We don't have a "No Chulk" sign yet. (We do leave a mess. I have asked for a mop, but I never get one.) I am probably the only one in our group that grunts (only on the last rep when I am struggling). My partners do scream a lot.

so I took a 30 minute crunch class. OMG, I hurt.

Tomorrow is chest day.
