Mac's Training Asylum

[Mac]

No way...you're from Erie? I was born and raised there.

How about we trade places. I will come to Naples and you come back to Erie.

No deal! But you're welcome to come down here, I need a training partner! I'm 45 yr old, so not far apart. Seriously though...looking good in the photo's bro!

Is the gym on the corner of greengarden and 38th st. still there? Mike G. use to own it, we use to lift together.

Yes, Mike's gym is still there. I always called him Goodie!

I competed with Mike in the 80s. He beat me the last time I competed in 1986 and he got first place in LW division.

Man, time does fly!
I'll have to stop in for a work out when I get home to visit...IN THE SUMMER! Peace!

This is day 3 of recovery from my first squat and deadlift workout. I am still sore as fuck in my hams and outer quads. No problems with my back.

I travel back to Ohio today and have to find time for a workout. Chest and shoulders are on tap next.

I had the 4-5 day doms after leg day for quite a while this fall...now not so much

It's a good feeling, I must be into pain

[Bob45]

Have a good day Mac. At least it is a good sore, lol.

Have fun back up here it is a great 40 degrees today and regular fucking heat wave!

[gman]

thought you would just wear your posing suit in the kind of heat...

Yep, a nice breezy day. Might get some rays later.

Packing up the 'puter and leaving for OH. Hitting the big old "YMCA" shortly after arriving. There are so many youngsters that come in around 2:00pm.

I have had more comments from these kids than anywhere. They ask me, how old are you, how long have you been lifting, how did you get so jacked.

It almost makes up for having to endure lifting in this small sweatbox of a gym, but it's right down the road.

Funny that no one talks to me in the gym, I am "that guy" head phones in, hat down low banging around weights and grunting during my lifts

Me too mostly, I only see lips moving and then take off the headphones and say ' WTF you bothering to ask me? '

I need more friends at the gym, fuck that. I train alone.

We would get along well Lou, I would be kicking your ass off the power rack for doing curls on it, right?

now that's a damn fine idea!

tan outdoors instead of a booth
