That ab machine

I talked before on how my gym is updating some of the equipment. Well there is this new type of ab machine I seen and boy is it rediculous, it almost looks like your having sex with it. You put your hands on what looks like handle bars then your kneeling on a padded seat face forward. Then you pull yourself from the handle bars so you can glide up and down in a type of semi circle real funny stuff. I tried it and it kind of works but truthfully you don't need an expensive peice of equipment to work abs. Today I have legs to do. thegymanthusiast@gmail.com blog you later.

Heavier on back and arms today

As I explained in my last post I am going a little bit heavier this week but nothing all out. I have to keep the the weights to a minimum, don't want to pull something.  Getting back into the groove felt good my chest is sore from yesterdays workout but  I expected it. Tomorrow I will talk about a new ab machine the gym just put in. thegyminthusiast@gmail.com blog you later.

Ohather Sunday at the GYM

New faces at the gym today. I guess the cabin fever got to some people. This reminds me of the when I feel like going to the gym person. I over heard two knuckle heads talking and one of them is like yeah I have to start coming to the gym now because I'm going on vacation in November. I'm saying to myself  it's going to take more then a few weeks for you to look like your in better shape. Now I'm not trying to put down the person that tries to make an effort to get to the gym, but come on you knew you were going on vacation  so now you think you have to start getting in shape. Give me a break your not proving anything to anybody if you think thats all it takes. you know the drill. thegymenthusiast@gmail.com blog you later.

New equipment to use for shoulders and triceps

I spoke before about my gym replaceing some equipment. Well they took away a hammer streigth shoulder press machine now Im pissed. They replace it with a similer machine but the hand grips are not in the same position and the seat is kind of reclined back and it just isn't doing the same job as the hammer stregth machine. Im all for moving forward but at the same time if it's not broke don't fix it. Any one else had a similar problem but found a solution email me thegymenthusiast@gmail.com blog you later.

Leeeeeeeggggggsssss today

Another leg day and they got rid of the donkey calf machine that I liked and I don't think they will be replacing it with a new one. So I had to do something alternative for calves today.However it gave me a chance to try out the new hack squat machine they replaced, no difference except for the lock bar that keeps the sled from getting away from you keeps moving. Oh well Im going to have to make do. Im still here if you have a question thegymenthusiast@gmail.com blog you later.

I felt like s*** yesterday and did back and biceps

I felt like s*** yesterday but I still worked out. I did back and biceps yesterday and my joints feel kind of sore. The rainy weather can't be helping it but a hot shower should help some.If you don't feel that up to working out you might want to take it easy that day or even take the day off. I personally don't like to take day's off  because I like to keep a schedule plus I'm a bit addicted to the gym but if I can't go I just can't go.
Any questions email me at thegymenthusiast@gmail.com  blog you later.

I been asked about a different kind of training system.

I had a guy come up to me in the gym on Sunday and ask me what I thought about  P 90 X training system. I seen it and it's effective for getting muscle tone, fat loss and muscle stamina but  it's not for building real muscle. Theres not enough muscle over load to build muscle. Yeah I know you see the people in the infomercial and say they kind of  look muscular but that's the magic of  T.V people. Also it's not new. It's just another type of drill training. drill training has been used in the military and pro sports for dacades. All and all if your looking to get in shape I would give drill training a try. Any questions email at thegymenthusiast@gmail.com . blog you later.

Legs today

I mentioned before that my knee was bothering me. Well it held up but it still feels a little tight. I can't beleave the fatigue that I experienced from the high reps I been doing. Thats what happens when your body is just not use to it the body go's into a kind state of shock. I almost fell doing lunges and I became a bit dazed so I had to back off some. Tomorrow is another day at the gym. If you have any questions email me at thegymenthusiast@gmail.com . Blog you later.
