I then ambled into the post office and announced. "I don't want anything today, but I have bought you these for your break" That box of biscuits cost me £1 - 50, the look of delight and surprise on the faces of the girls behind the counter was worth ten thousand times that. As a nation we should do more of this type of thing. I'd probably get arrested for unwanted sexual attention of I tried that without a signed docket in place stating that they are just biscuits and that there are no implied implications/expectations/connotations! | ||

Don't let the nutters win. They get much publicity but they are really few in number. "Thrice armed is the man whose cause is just" And is there any more just a cause than putting a smile on someone's face ? Random acts of kindness can save us all. | ||

Many weightlifters in the place, including the ones who competed at the weekend, but they all seemed to finish early, I left a little before six and they were down to three and I suspect they weren't long behind me. | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17814 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Wednesday, 14th November, start 16:25 Late start tonight as the road was closed by the Cheery Tree pub due a rather serious looking road accident. A considerable detour was needed to get there, and it's a dickens of a time since I went that way, luckily it all came back to me. Deadlift, squat boots and knee sleeves 70 x 5 70 x 5 70 x 5 70 x 5 100 x 3 120 x 3 140 x 3 160 x 3 180 x 3 180 x 3 180 x 3 All pretty good and the knees were a sight more cheerful throughout. The sleeves do seem to be a good idea. I was very tempted to go up again after the first 180 but common sense prevailed and I took the safer option. Just as Robert Frost took the road less traveled, I shall take the safer option and long may I continue to do so. | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17814 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | On the M61 around the J3 area someone athletic has climbed aboard a girder across the motorway (that presumably carries cables or somesuch) and sprayed - BURN FUEL DON'T CARE WE ALL SHARE THE SAME AIR with an appalling lack of punctuation. It seems a rather odd thing to do, but the question is who doesn't care ? Him, the drivers it is aimed at, everyone, people who climb gantries? Clarity is everything | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17814 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Friday, 16th November, start 16:20 Day off today, so a lie in, then some Christmas shopping, then a nap and away to the gym. There have been reports in the local press of late that school children have been complaining about poor air quality near schools. Well to my cost I found out the reason for this, I pass a small school on my way from home to the gym and there was a hell of a queue of traffic at throwing out time. So kiddies there is your answer, either breathe s**t or walk to school every day, come rain come shine. I wouldn't mind being present when they take that vote. Anywhoo Tbar row, in pounds 50 x 10 50 x 10 75 x 10 75 x 10 100 x 10 100 x 10 125 x 10 125 x 10 150 x 10 150 x 10 Tbar shrug, still pounds 150 x 10 150 x 10 175 x 10 175 x 10 200 x 10 200 x 10 225 x 10 225 x 10 Pulldown to chest, wide grip, kilos now 50 x 10 55 x 10 60 x 10 65 x 10 70 x 10 70 x 10 70 x 10 70 x 10 70 x 10 Face pulls, still kilos 30 x 10 40 x 10 50 x 10 60 x 10 60 x 10 60 x 10 Very few in tonight, but Joe walked amongst us for the first time in a long time. Tesco, home and a quiet weekend is planned | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17814 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Monday, 19th November, start 16:30 More traffic trouble, this time in the form of some road works. Bench, very raw, squat boots 20 x 20 20 x 20 20 x 20 50 x 5 60 x 5 70 x 3 80 x 3 90 x 2 100 x 2 105 x 3 110 x 3 115 x 3 102 x 5 102 x 5 102 x 5 102 x 5 102 x 5 Pretty much the same as last week but this time I managed the five sets at 102 whereas it was only four last week. So Hurrah for me and next week some form of increase, probably on the top triple Tricep pushdown, very strict 40 x 10 50 x 10 60 x 10 70 x 10 75 x 10 75 x 10 75 x 10 75 x 10 75 x 10 The re-wire of the club is now almost complete, we have had six new light fitting in the main room and by the Lord Harry it's bright. Shame Aaron isn't here, he would have loved it. | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17814 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Wednesday, 21st November, start 16:15 Time for a change of tack Squat, raw, sleeves and boots on 20 x 5 20 x 5 20 x 5 20 x 5 20 x 5 20 x 5 60 x 10 80 x 10 belt on 100 x 10 110 x 10 120 x 10 130 x 10 140 x 10 120 x 10 100 x 10 Tonight I discovered the difference between "hard" and "difficult". None of this was hard but it was difficult. There was huffing and puffing aplenty and sweat was not in short supply. None of it troubled the knees which is good, but it troubled most other things. It is a long time since I did tens for anything like this. Things started slowing at 120, 130 was slower still and 140 was a grind. Normally on tens I count five then three and then two, but the 140 was a three, another three and then two twos. I told Dave I was going to stop there but the most disapproving look I have received in a long time spurred me on for a couple of extra sets. There was little and less chance of another 140 and I didn't want to do fewer reps so 120 and then 100 it was, It was bloody well enough too. The smart money is on that my legs will ache tomorrow. Had I not given up gambling I may have risked a few quid on that myself. | ||
