how the hacks feel on your knees?

[Sunnyday]

What did I miss? :-)

I stumbled across the gym to end all gyms (pics in my journal). But nobody wanted to come out and play.

A gym to end all gyms is a sports complex.

Well, I'm not using Herculean weights at all, but I was definitely feeling it. Full ROM, fwiw.

Any sports complexes you'd recommend?

Off the top of my head. I am sure there others out there. But most private schools and universities have set ups like Mcdonogh.

Seriously?! None of the private schools in this area have those amenities other than McDonogh. I've been to many private high schools and universities and have seen their gyms. In fact, I know of one Division I university that doesn't have half those toys (my husband taught there and trained in that gym). And none that I can think of have a fridge with cold bottled water and preworkout drinks...for free.

I was just visiting your journal. You kill me on bench.

...

In fact, you kill me on every lift.

-_-

(Allayouse strong people tick me off! Aaannnd serve as strong motivation.)

[Sunnyday]

I had this same conversation with someone in my gym today. It's not about comparing who's stronger unless we're competing against each other in a PL meet. (GD would smoke us all if we did, standing on one leg, blindfolded, and with one hand tied behind his back, LOL)

It IS about us bringing our best, leaving the excuses to those who won't post pics, encouraging each other to IMPROVE no matter what level we're currently at. When we do that, we all win.
