| I only rock Nike's for casual wear, never for anything athletic. I do have quite the "sneaker collection" though, most if not all are categorized in the running department (air max 90, 95, 1, air stab, tailwind, structure triax, air pegasus, asics gel lytes) |

Anyone ever been asked to leave a gym?
Was working out yesterday and one of the instructors came over and told me I couldn't use the barbell weights in that room. I said that was stupid as I always did the weights in there and the free weights section was full. She got all moody and said stop or leave....
So I carried on and ignored her :) Anyway, 10mins later I have to speak to the manager and she basically tells me she doesn't have a choice in the matter and I "should finish my workout and come back tomorrow after some reflection". If I had a problem with that, I should write a letter to the manager.
Best workout I've had in ages, wish they argued with me everytime!! Provided great motivation. :D
I ended up writing a letter as well, just asking for them to sort out the free weights section which is basically non existant since the new gym building was opened. |

soo on friday a friend of mine decided to get me to try maxing out on the bench. this is something i always hated doing, and previously i had been stuck on 180 and then later on 205.
so we get to 180, and i did it like nothing. same with 205. i put up 225 twice, and then 245 once afterwards. i went bonkers after putting up 245 lol |

thinking about entertaining brooks or mizzuno for a try
would never run in nike or puma, just my preference. |
I love brooks shoes, currently sporting adidas supernova classics, but have never met a pair of brooks i didn't like running in. You'll like them if you go that route.
My workout today consisted of 3k in the pool, then an 8 miler on the trails. Now time to pass out. |

| went too hard at the gym yesterday and got nauseous spinning :sadgreen: which was completely unintentional. that feeling totally takes away from the awesomeness of the entire workout. don't know how some of you do that often... |

i worked it pretty good at the gym yesterday. but i'm not quite sure if my new puma's are all that great for running. it might be cause they need to be broken in a bit better; but i dunno for sure.
the one thing i really hate about my gym is the lack of pullup bars. there's ONE. and its in the center of the gym; and it has two other pulley system things on the sides of it. so if some jackass pilot is using one of the pulley things, you can't really do pullups unless you ask them to move off to the side. which gets annoying after awhile. :/ |

Sucks but hopefully we will meet in the future.
First time I have run since thursday and I had tears coming out of my right eye and felt like puking my brains out about the last 4-5 minutes but I pushed through. |
