No shit! Hate that part. Dips are the worst, dragging 100 lb plates halfway accross the gym to dip with, then 45's and 75 lb dumbells to hold down the opposite ends of the (unsecured) dip station (250 lbs bw + 200 to 290 lbs of plates can cause severe destabilzation of the dip station, don't not try this at home!). Legs' I just unload the squat rack when I'm done and load up the leg press.. Sucks unloading it though, and I'm working legs unilaterally..

Short but sweet one earlier. Did Cable Rows 5 or 6 wamups then 1 set with 370 x5, onto already loaded Hammer DY rows 7 pl+25 each side x 6 + 2 FR ea arm. Rack deads about six wamups- singles, then 4 reps with 7 pl+ 25 each side/ 820. Took over an hour with all the warmups (and loading of plkates), no shrugs, trap will have to be happy with the deads, no biceps- doing those on Sat anyway with Baldie. Should have done chins, but ran out of time. Brutal though, 3 PRs! I need to eat more, lost a few over the weekend, probably because I didn't consume many carbs. Mostly, whey, eggs, chicken, some veggies. Etc. I need to drink more water too!

I would do almost anything to make 400k. I admit it.

6 years income in one day, that would rock.

Not one day. Sales done well is parallel to Bodybuilding. A day at a time. Baby steps and a plan with an end game. This sale started over 5 years ago. Had to make alliances with the sub contractors I will need, build confidence with the spec writers and using departments by doing great service on other sales...etc...etc. More work is needed now to change the specs even now that they are on the street. I am writing an addendum reguest. Politics will get it accepted and odds favor me. And still no guarantee I will get the deal. I make zero salary...lose this deal and its zero pay check for me.

Feeling like I've had the wind totally knocked out of me today. The last 48 to 72 hours have been pretty devastating. Actually back two weeks, starting with my wifes car having to go into the shop two times. Then last week she gets hurt at week- shoulder seperation. Just found out that the dr (3rd one since the accident) said she's temporarily totally disabled, no work til at least Feb 8, her next appt. My dad, living with us in the faamily house, has Alzeihmers or at least dementia, is being verbally abusive, esp to my wife, and not folowing his drs orders.. Ended up calling his drs office over the weekend, the OC Sheriffs for help. We have his next appt Weds if we all make it that far... My car, which has had an oil pressure problem for over week went to the shop this morning. Looking at cam bushings (tear down, etc) 1000 minimum to possible oil pump, piston rings etc, 2000. Then last night, while having a few beers with my 22 year old daughter, her bf and my wife while watching our Vikings fumble and get cheap shotted out of the big game, while talking about when my got cancer, my baby drops a bombshell on me that she "might have a cancer..", has a lump in her breast. There's nmore but these are friggin highlights, or low lights. No gym today, had to get rental to get to work, and even if I could have, was soo not even in a mental/emotional space to even think about it.. Getting hit right in the solar plexus, right where I live....

Yeesh! It's pouring on your head! I'm so sorry. I hope each day gets better for you and your family. And I hope your daughter is just panicking over all of the breast cancer stuff out there. It is very rare for someone so young to have breast cancer. It is not unusual for young women to have benign lumps. Had one myself at 22 which freaked me out! That's when I cut almost all caffeine out of my diet.

Hang in there!

James...Randee had multiple lumps in her breast removed over the years...all benign. Not until she was in her 60s did one show cancer. You daughter is gorgeous and a whole lotta fun. Her auora will protect her.

Thanks Bill! Very nice thing to say. FYI, I'm a very (over) protective parent when it comes to her. My son too, but he's 18, crazy, mad and is in the I don't want anything to do with you phase. She's never been like that. Cool, indepedent, yes. Plus its different with daughters, as I'm sure you dads out there now. On top of that, she came from a woman who her docs couldn't HAVE anymore kids, avoided being miscarried, and even took her sweet time and arrived 5 days late. So she's always sort of been my miracle baby. Never seriously ill. Flu, colds, that's it. My son too for the matter. Anyway, thanks! Im not feeling as freaked now. Just trying to wade through it, one step at a time.

Thanks! I can move today, lol. A bit stiff earlier, no biggie. Very tired though! Would have loved a nap, but zero time. Had drs appt for my dad at 915 today, which he forgot, even though he was reminded last night, and he had wrote on his (2009) calendar.. Another appt for us at 1230. Then off to work.. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Last entry. had fun with this, put out what I was doing, but Monday begins 6 month countdown in earnest (ok it should have been this week, but this wasn't a great week at all). Rest today, cumulative stress left me pretty tired today- 3 mugs of coffee to feel halfway up to anything, and car not back til Monday now- its together, running, but still has a miss, and for all the money its going to cost (Cmon credit limit dont fail me now, or I'm f'd!), they want to give me basically a new car or engine anyway running tip top. once this nightmare is over, they said the one thing I WONT have to worry about this year - or the next is my car- outside of oil changes and brake servicing. anyway, Monday I start in high gear, start pulling out the stops week by week. not dieting yet, or cardio per se (outside of bike riding at work), still have til March in my mass phase, but no cutting short workouts due to lack of time, no skipping anything, increasing use of intensifiers. With my increased strength levels, this is going to be fucking BRUTAL! 248- 250lbs shredded onstage in PITT if it kills me, I have little to lose and everything to gain... thanks for comments everyone. Going stealth... see you in Pitt- and maybe Columbus (for fun and to see a friend about a photoshot and article for FLEX)..

Not going to compare tits with tats, just know that I can relate. My wife and I work hard, daughter in college, just got her car repaired, lost by dad last year and taking over responsibility of Mom. I CAN relate. I will see you on stage in Pitt and look forward to doing battle with you, I win the heavy and you win the supers! Hang in there.

Sad you're not going to post your workouts any longer. I like following along with others who are focused on gaining mass. Seems like everyone else is trying to lean out. But I understand the reasons. I hope everything worked ok with your daughter as well.

I will keep an eye on my friend James. Yes, his plate is full...even for a BIG man. His daughter is a doll.

I suspect we will see James first on stage this year at the Mr. Muscle Beach. July 4th.
