Thanks, sweetie! I'm exciting and wary at the same time. It will be a lot of work, that's for sure.

Yay -- I ran today -- only 25 minutes, but at least it was some form of physical activity. Our neighborhood is pretty hilly and kicks butt. I also walked for 10 minutes.

Okie dokie -- finally went home gym shopping today.

We are getting a quote on this system:

http://www.prospotfitness.com/pages/p500.html

I tried it out and it is way cool!

He's also quoting on:

Plates -- I asked for the kind with the hole where I can grip them more easily -- can't remember what they're called:

6 45lb plates
4 25lb plates
4 10lb plates
4 5lb plates

Plus, a plate tree

A set of rubber hex dumbbells in 5lb increments from 5 to 50lbs

Plus, the stand

For accessories so far, I asked him to quote on:

Closegrip bar
Pussy pad

EZ Curl Bar
Whatever the squeezie safety things are called for the ends of the bar

The gym setup comes with a lat pulldown bar and an adjustable bench.

We're going to get rubber floor mats put inside the entire garage, so we can expand our gym as we go along.

The only other thing I can think of at the moment is that I need to figure out where to buy mirrors for the walls. Once he gives us the quote, if we decide to order it should all be here by January 15, so I should have a home gym to workout in while I'm slaving away in graduate school.

Hmmm....this gym log needs updating!!

What's up Hibi? How's life? School? Workouts?

K I just read back a couple of posts in your journal...Uhm..what the heck is a "pussy pad"??

I just had to ask!!

LoL

Is it something you'd recommend?

Heheh

Hi dnyc!

I've been soooo busy! Luckily, this week is spring break from school. I needed a break. Things are going well -- all A's so far. Woohoo. LOL

We had our new home gym installed -- you can see it in the thread titled home gym -- so, I've started exercising again after a two month break. That was a way too long break and my strength is kind of showing it, but I'll get it all back together shortly. I'm doing okay weight & bodyfatwise, so I suppose all is well despite my inactivity.

A pussy pad is the pad for the squat bar. LOL Obviously, a man coined that term.

Wow straight A's!! Awesome job!! :winkthumb

I haven't been to your home gym thread..I'll go check it out.

Yeah I took off about 2 months from lifting..my strength is slowly coming back. I'm impressed at how fast...and my family have pointed out that my biceps/arms looked pumped now even while relaxed.

I wish I could take 2 months off w/o weight gain. I think I put on a few lbs during my break but, I've managed to shed it off with my workouts now. Phew!

LoL@pussy pad

I'm not sure I'd want to ask guys at the gym to hand me the "pussy pad"? What if they don't know what I'm talking about? :o

LoL

*note...I highlighted the word in pink for RaSP's amusement.

Keep up the great work Hibi!!

Talk to ya soon,

Hugz,

~D~
