Pre-Valentines Date

Some quality time at the gym with me mate, Jac! Only drawback is this quality time generally falls during peak times at the gym where equipment can sometimes be at my premium....time for a RANT! Any dude or dudette that stands at the squat rack (only 2 in the gym...not including Smith machines) and takes like....5 minute breaks between sets....should be fined. As I was with Jac....it was a little tougher to "work in" a rep so next best thing...Smith machine. OK...let's define a Smith machine. Essentially a piece of crap. A way for guys to just boost ego, pressing and benching way more than can be stabilized. Could be considered a good piece of equipment to build confidence prior to setting up a real exercise with free weight! Quick cardio day of 45 min and some OKC Quads and Hams prior to finishing off with some Smith Machine squats. Almost left angry....doing squats on a Smith machine is like taking a ford focus for a lap around the Nurbring ring when a shiny GT3 is idling in the pits...perhaps I'm embelishing a bit but...legs do feel a tad flushed and will make up for this tomorrow with a decent UE day. Weather is so freakin mild...I may switch gears and get some early a.m. runs in. Had enough of the bikes hanging on the wall...ebay helped me console this by showing me the light.......the light being a new wheel set for the mt bike and road bike....:) Counting down the days till these arrive
