Journey, Not A Destination

It was better than I expected... but still bad. That just says how low my expectations are, lol.

I expected the gym to lay the law down on me since I'm not hired by them nor am I contracted. Their members are allowed to bring one guest per workout. No place does it say said guest can't be a Master Female Body Sculptor.

Hehehehe

The owner and another trainer was glaring at me but never said anything.
 
I already found out they don't have a squat rack.

Hmmmm ... that's not a good sign :(

Am I crazy in assuming they even had a Smith Machine? Frankly, those things should be illegal. Horrible pieces of equipment.

Can't wait to hear how it all turned out :)

EDIT: I see it wasn't that bad.

Note to self: I need to read all posts in a thread before replying :D

Wow Steve, that's a beautiful house, and especially the surrounding area. Very very cool. The outside pics of the house itself are pretty eye catching and dramatic- in a good way ;)

Feel better... It seems lots of peeps are sick lately... I guess I'm just awaiting my turn, lol.

Take Care,
Sam
 
Just wanted to leave a quick thanks!! Thanks! I performed less TRI sets this week, and not only do my elbows not burn... I increased my Bench!! I appreciate the great advice.
 
hehehe master sculptor :D "what do you do in life? i sculpt women bodies for fun"

:D

glad you're feeling better btw. and i think opening your own center would be great for you. if there's anyone who should open one it would be you in my opinion. hell i would join if you ever become super-size world hit and open something in croatia :D

I just wish Steve would clone himself and come to my gym and start sculpting me ;)

I don't have time to wait for him to open his own center and go global :D
 
speaking of videos, i was just looking at your vidoes for soft tissue...and the one for feet might really help my foot problem. thanx steve
 
Two of me is more than unnecessary on this planet. Just ask my wife, lol.

I've been MIA a lot lately. I'm insanely busy with a number of things but all is well. I'm usually a Christmas person and this year I don't have any of the The Spirit at all. I'm not in a bad mood or anything... I'm just not into the holiday.

On the gym front, we've been talking to an attorney about potential roadblocks taking clients from Gordy's gym. There's a lot of kinks to be worked out.

We're meeting with the owner of the building this week to talk costs and stuff.

We should know a lot more by the end of this month.
 
I disagree with your wife LOL Just imagine how much good 10 Steve's could do in the world of fitness :p

I really do wish you much luck in this endeavour, Steve ;)

You'll get your Xmas spirit back ... you're just pre-occupied with other stuff right now.
 
Well the gym idea is out for now. I'm not too down as I wasn't exactly 100% sold on jumping into the gig already but I knew it was something Gordy really has his sites set on.

It's not completely dead but for now, it seems the building we found can't be used for a gym due to borough coding or zoning. Something along those lines.

To boot, one of the trainers Gordy was going to 'steal' from his gym and hire as a contractor quit today and opened up his own place. Needless to say that just added fuel to Gord's fire of disappointment.

He'll be fine though. We're both dead set on going with the flow. What happens will happen and as long as we stay true to our passions, goals and selves... all will be well.
 
I'm not training too seriously at the moment. I'm doing a mixture of varying volume from week to week on big lifts and doing rest-pause training on the supplemental lifts.

Today looked something like this:

A1 - BB Bench Press - 4x5 @ 250 lbs
A2 - Pendlay Rows - 4x5 @ 205 lbs

B - Underhand Lat Pulldowns - 110 lbs x 10, 6, 5 RP

C - DB Overhead Press Neutral Grip - 55 lbs x 10, 5, 3 RP

D - BB Skull Crushers - 80 x 10, 5, 3 RP
 
Wow is the weather miserable here today.

I'm working from home since I have a living room furniture set being delivered today. Actually the guys are right here in the room with me mad as hell. The furniture wouldn't fit through the door so they had to take it all apart and now they're having one hell of a time putting back together.

I'm not too confident in their ability.

Nice guys though.

I wonder how much I should tip them?

Anyhow, was a nice win for the Eagles last night. They should've won by a good bit more but I'll take it. They picked apart the defense like it was a practice squad.
