little bitta leggies and gym bitches
Art and I trained legs a little bit. My soreness from Sunday took until today to be gone. I went lighter than normal, but wanted to take him through some stuff with me. We always have fun though. I showed him the modified leg press and noticed even though I didnt think I was flexible, many men are less flexible with foot positions and stuff. I totally lack spine flexibility as well. We did extensions, curls, glute isolator, leg press and Romanian deadlifts. Also some regular db curls to get a pump during leg rest, roman chair, donkey calf and assisted dips and pull ups.
Did I tell you before my gym was a soap opera and its all guys? Turns out one guy in particular is saying all kinds of really rotten lies about me there and for no good reason. he has told 2 of my good male friends that I am "trouble and dangerous" and now some disgusting sexual stuff. I was a little pissed, but both my friends told him to "F off". I love those guys! We talk shop, they love the gym like I do. Oh, apparently I am also a "wild woman" according to some. I don’t need to defend myself against ignorant talk. I know what I am. If I can walk into a church without fear of catching on fire………Im doing ok!!
I think some of this guys problem is that he is a trainer…..sometimes. He trains a few MMA wannabe’s. Im sure they see my abs and so he has to talk crap about me and probably tells them I am using drugs, so they wont wonder why he cant get them to have abs like mine. Whateva…….you think women gossip? Dudes are BAD. I wont let him get to me as its just a sign of his insecurity. I work hard….thats all. You want something, you work hard for it and you will get it.
It took me 38 years to find a true passion. It used to be art in highschool though. I painted, drew, sculpted……then it was gone. So that was about 23 years ago. I was wondering when I was going to "love something" again, but just couldnt put my finger on it until a couple years ago. Having something to look forward to is awesome! So much better than thinking, "hm, should I cut my toenails tonight or tomorrow night?" I know I am pushing fitness like a crack dealer, but I just want others to feel the good feeling I get. Hey, its legal!
Ok, gotta run. Going to do the interview for the TV show tomorrow and do the quick bikini scene for that movie. Im not really nervous yet!

Love the comment about pushing fitness like a crack dealer! Also, great way to capture the sense of how most people spend (waste) their free time on the couch pondering the big questions, like when to clip their toenails. If only they could get hooked on this fitness we’re pushingright? Great stuff! Cheers, Mike

Hey "crack dealer"… I’d buy from you
hehe. Seriously, immature dudes like the one at your gym are everywhere. I went through it at my gym and it sucks/can be uncomfortable, but you just have to ignore it and write the a-holes off. That’s awesome your friends told him how it was! I think everyone needs a fitness "crack dealer" to keep reminded of the positive when it gets slumpy.
