Wow! Haven't been here in ages! The firewall at my little oasis won't let me in. "Unauthorized Site:Chat" indeed!

Well greetings all from Messopotamia, craddle of Babylon!!

Felix! How's retired life and House Six treating you?

A few more months till they let me escape and then it's 15 days in Europe!! At the rate that the time is flying (been here almost two months already) Groundhog Day Take: R&R-1 will be here like ...... next week! LOL!

Hi Night Stalker! I remember you. Welcome back. [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img]
ADD] Well the day is over and I'm going to bed. Along with the day, my two week vacation ended too. So that means getting up early in the morning and going too school. Why do vacation have to just fly every time? Anyway that's all and I'll call it a day. Good night all. [img]graemlins/sleeping.gif[/img]

I will break them all.

Hey guys. I have another weightlifting competition tomorrow. I'm psyched. I'm ready. I'm not letting anyone surpass me this time. At the last two I failed in reaching the gold, I let others beat me, but not this time. I've got that mindset going on right now where you feel like you could do anything, that mindset you get before something big. I don't know if this is the adreniline talking, but I've got a good feeling right now that I'm gonna win tomorrow. I've trained harder then ever in these last few weeks and I have to win this time. I may have gotten in third place at the last one, but it was worth it. Our team won as a whole. We got first place out of twenty-four other teams. We're doing it again. Another trophy mounted on the wall of our weightroom as a reminder that we've won before and we can do it again. I've got to win this competition. I really don't have anything else to say. Sorry if I came out all dramatic and kind of overactive in that. I'm just trying to express how I'm feeling right now. Lifting weights is a huge thing to me and so is winning this competition. I don't want to be looked upon as the average guy. I'm tired of feeling average. I've got something to prove and I feel this is how I can do it. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks guys.

Wow SomeGuy, you are psyched on winning this. With that much determination it should be the law for you to home the gold, and another trophy. Good luck!

SomeGuy · 03-07-2005, 08:06 PM

Well guys. I came home with the silver, a step up from last time. I tried my best and even found a new max on bench press. We came out on top though, with first place overall. I'm proud of my team, I'm proud to lift withthem. I think we all felt the same when our coach let us know how proud he was of us, it was really a heartwarming moment. It was a joyous day for us.

Sir Degrader · 03-07-2005, 08:30 PM

What's your max BP?

SomeGuy · 03-07-2005, 08:38 PM

195 lbs, I tried 200 when I got back to the weightroom, but only got it half way. I'll try again next week.

Sir Degrader · 03-07-2005, 08:40 PM

DAAAAAAAAAAAMN

. Nice, whats your primary weightlifting event? Squats? Cleans?

SomeGuy · 03-07-2005, 08:47 PM

At the weightlifting competition we did three lifts. Deadlift, Squat, and Benchpress. When we work out we have like, six core lifts coach makes us do before anything else. Incline Bench, Push press, and benchpress on uppper body. On lower body we do Deadlift, Squat, and Powerclean.

Reading this someguy reminds of when you used to post in the cafe about bullying and people giving you a hard time at school (before I gave you your'e broom) reading your above post had me guessing that it would no longer be much of a concern to you now
