So I’m walking over to the Smith Machine yesterday and there’s a guy at the cable station doing superman curls.  He’s pretty big, and looks like he’s lifting about 40 on each arm.  So he finishes off his set and hits a pose in the mirror.  While I find this somewhat laughable I understand the need for posing for serious body builders, but dude proceeds to kiss the peaks of his biceps.   REALLY????  WTF????

So I have to go into the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays and I have had zero time to blog lately about my journey.  My wife still doesn’t understand my obsession.  I got the guilt treatment for getting out of bed this morning to go to the gym when she took the day off.  Sorry, I blew my diet last night at Chilis and needed in my mind to get back in the gym.  The last 2 days have been really intense.  I really didn’t know how little endurance some of my muscles have.  Supersetting and pre-exhausting has made me really sore.  I love it, but it makes chasing an 18 month old around kind of tough.
