Rant and Tip for May 9, 2011

Good morning faithful readers,

 Today should prove interesting. The gym I work out in is closed for the day. I didn't get up early enough this morning to work out here at home either. I will try to hit the weights late tonight like around 9:00 or maybe 10:00 if I have to. Today will be squat day I think for me. I have the equipment here and I plan to use it. Remember Fearless ! I think I sprained my middle finger on my right hand. It is a little swollen and hurts like the dickens. It also tends to stick up. So, to all the people who actually see me today, I am not flipping you off, it just is painful to bend it. I am in the process of preparing for my next meet on June 4th and my weight is at 167.5. Just the place to be for now. I will drop 2 pounds this week and then another 2 next week that will put me at a point where I can make sure I am sufficiently fuel up for the Friday before the meet and the day of. Power lifting is something new for me this year and I have to say I love it. Not just because I happen to be a decent lifter but because there is a camaraderie to it. Lifters lift against themselves and everyone helps each other. Also just to break the stereotype that we are all big and dumb. One of my friends in power lifting is a physics professor at a local college. Had to plug you here Brian. LOL

Have a great workout!

TIP OF THE DAY:

Do not be afraid to try something new. I never would be having the time I am lifting if I hadn't gone ahead and tried it on a the urging of a friend. Thanks Ted! If there is something you always wanted to try DO IT. Do not just sit there and think about it go for it. You may surprise yourself and it could lead to something great.
