I was right in the middle of a super set. Leg press - leg curls- leg ext. I was all alone in the gym whem a person came in got on the leg ext machine and then the PHONE! when I got around there I first stood there while she talked to her friend then asked about working in then when she acted like i was from mars I just skiped it.I did squats and lunges and she was still on the phone she had just moved to the smith machine.

I wanted to smash her cell phone with a dumbbell . OH well she did have some drama going on.. Her friend was not returning her Hooters shirt so she was going to be in trouble at work. I guess when her friend caught her in the hot tub without her hooters uniform with her friends boyfriend the friend / coworker found no reason to get her shirt back to her!!lol lol at least she was not shy about what was going on..

cell phones should be left in the lockerroom.

Support. Its a strange bedfellow. It comes from within as well as the people around you. It even comes from people you dont even know. Sometimes we find support in strange places. I find myself getting support from people I have met only online here on bodyspace. I also look to publications like Ironman and Muscular Development. Even though I have never met any of these world class body builders, I get training tips and motavation from their articles and training routines.

But the support that I get at home has me a little down. My wife for some reason has found it hard to be positive about the hard work and dedication I have put into changing my life. I hear all the time how she hates BIG muscles. That they look gross and disgusting. I know that I will never be a Jay Cutler but I still want to train like I will. I did some  body hair grooming and my god what a negitive reaction. She never seems to miss the chance to tell me or her friends how nasty it is. I am finding the reactions I am getting from her to be a real let down. Her reactions in no way change the way I train or my goals. I just find that I no longer look to her for support or a positive response. 

I am sure that the best support comes from inside oneself. But having an encouraging  word at home sure would be NICE.  But no matter what, I plan to train hard try to grow. I enjoy this lifestyle even more than the one that led me to 340+ pounds. The gains I make and the losses I see are all the real encouragement I need to keep training hard and pushing myself. Anyway enough whining I need to go lift.

I have lost 115# in 10 months. I feel like I have extra skin around my mid section. Will it go away?

Was wondering why male bodybuilders remove their body hair?
