TGIF - Bad Hair Daze
Friday, October 10th, 2008Excuse any typos, please. My dexterity isn’t firing on all cylinders at the moment. Didja ever notice how your fingers stop working when you are exhausted?
Very atypical Friday. No school for the boys so I got to sleep in. Ate my standard breakfast later than usual, then got ready for Shoulders & Bis. Usually by this time I’m long done training, so its nice to be able to train a lil’ later - more awake, joints looser, etc.
Anyway, not sure why but was in an antsy mood. Coulda been the extra sleep, maybe it was all those great carbs & fats in last night’s dinner? I made my own brown sushi rice and had an awesome roll with fresh steelhead trout (might as well have been salmon), avocado and some flax seeds. Add fresh wasabi paste *wooooooooo* and pickled ginger….hhmmmmmm.
Anyway, back to antsy. I’m practically bouncing around (sorry for the visual) and stretched to my favorite genre of music - 80s hair rock. NOW I’m really fired up.
I tore it up. Had a great workout. Moved a lot of weight during the bigger, full body lifts & ended up downshifting on the fly to some high intensity, no breaks muscletrophy sets for a number of late in the session bi lifts. Finished up the week & session with one of my favorites - Jackknife Push-Ups. These BLAST your shoulders & work the core. Great way to end any Shoulder day.
To use my "brospeak" I was "swole". Had a MASSIVE pump. Just sick. Love it…..
Prior to this workout I quickly assembled a playlist of 80’s hair tunes from my, um, "iCollection". It really pushed me thru. So, in honor of this I’m going to try to start a new feature on BuckSpin’s BodyBlog - "Bad Hair Daze". Every Friday I will try to post one hidden 80’s hair rock gem that you either haven’t heard or have heard in a LONG time.
This is, IMHO, one of the best covers no one has ever heard. Shame this band was deemed too "scary" to really promote. Great bluesy rock. Anyway, to start "Bad Hair Daze" enjoy this Motown standard covered by Little Caesar.
