3rd Shift
I worked 3rd shift last night, and am in the office today, so I missed the gym in the middle. I’m going to hit it around lunch time, and see how that goes. Thankfully, this is a fairly non-technical lifting workout. I’ve got some deadlifts with dumbells, and some squats, but nothing where my lack of sleep will have me dropping a bar on my head.
Last night, I read a book by a woman who’s a certified personal trainer in my town. It was pretty good stuff. There weren’t any “oh WOW!” moments to the reading, but that’s sometimes a nice feeling, too. It’s like you actually feel knowledgable about something when you see someone else’s advice matches what you’re already doing. I liked the writing style, and it gave me some ideas as to what I *don’t* want to do with my stuff. Essentially, you guys were all right. I should do a memoir style instead of a “how to” style.
I ordered a 20 foot rope with an eight inch eye spliced into the top. I’ll be throwing this over the beams at my place and using it for rope climbing. Then, for my birthday (April 8th, for those of you keeping track, as I’m a birthday ho), I’ll prolly ask for rings. The kind gymnasts use. (If I don’t buy them beforehand using my Xbox sale money– anyone want to buy a gently used XBOX and a boatload of games?). The rope should be neat. I have no doubt I’ve not enought strength to do climbing without knots in the rope and using my legs. So far. But it’s a step.
Are you mighty?
