You don’t know what clean is until you leave a mess! Last night I met up with a buddy from my old gym He is now a member of Gold’s Gym located in down Brooklyn Heights section of NYC. What a difference from my current gym 24/7 Gym Union Square (Lower Manhattan). I had a great workout (did shoulders) but, what impressed me was a clean gym, towel service and plenty of free weights and machines. Plenty of cardio machines as well! Get this, 6 bucks less than what I am paying. The gym is an 8 minute walk. Well, looks like I may be joining Gold’s Gym. I have a 7 day pass. I may wait until the end of the month and make the change.  Now I can leave home early and get some interval cardio going early in the am…make it back home to shower and go to work and school…..I am loving this!

Earlier this month I took an entry exam for a particular program given at this University. (I decided to go back to school for my doctorate in physical therapy). After many calls and emails- I found out I failed the easiest part of the exam. I was shocked to say the least. It appears that I got 19 questions right according to the testing center rep. I replied, ‘there were only 19 quiestions. I was informed that there were 60 questions! Apparantly there were pages missing from the test booklet. I certainly did not notice missing pages etc. I followed the directions to the letter and stopped at placed my penicil down when I completed a section. I even went over my questions. The good news is the school is allowing me to retake a similiar exam next month. I was so happy…I said to myself this is certainly favor.  The rep mentioned that it did not make since to pass the difficult part and fail the easiest part of the exam…

It has been difficult to get my workout partners to do legs. Since no one likes to do them, I come in early and split my leg routine alone. Thanks to Madtitan of bb.com and his blogs- i have gained some helpful info. I do not feel comfortable doing legs alone so I may do them on Sunday with this brother I met and the NPC Atlantic. I hope he is a man of his word and shows up and ready to work out hard.  Yesteray I did leg extensions, lying leg curls and calves. Usually Mondays is packed at my gym. Due to the heavy raining- many people stayed home.  People, rain is your friend! It should NOT keep you from working out…. Later this week I will do squats, lunges and dead lifts
