What did YOU learn today?

[JOKER47]

Today I learned several things:

1. A large tractor tire, after lying on it's side for more than 24 hours, settles.
2. It is pretty much impossible to get your hands under the sides of a large tractor tire after it has settled.
3. A crow bar and a 2x4 will get the large tractor tire high enough to where you can slide your hands under it.
4. Dirt on the large tractor tire makes it very slick.
5. Take time to clean your large tractor tire.


I always strive to learn something new in the gym every week.

Thought I would share these with you all.


As you were,

I haven't worked out since Sunday, but nevertheless I've learnt a lot...

- there are more important things than working out
- I have big abs that show easily when I don't eat enough
- I can go very long periods without food, water and sleep and be okay
- more stress = less muscle

When doing hill sprints, remember the geese that were on the hill first, so that you won't decide to lay down from exhaustion and get up with goose shit all over your back

I did some of that today myself. I'm still sore as hell, but maybe it'll show it's worth tomorrow.

Never mind the reps or weight, I`m sure they didn`t notice or even cared what exercise you were doing !!!

However my darling Miss Bevster.......if you ever need
