Yeah, he has some pretty funny one liners: I'm only having a few people over so I just got a baby turkey, AKA a chicken. A rotisserie chicken from Walmart.

I was actually tempted to post the next line after that. "I bought two and ate one on the way home." That made me bust out laughing because I did that exact thing when I was bulking.AWvsCBsteeeerike3 wrote:Yeah, he has some pretty funny one liners: I'm only having a few people over so I just got a baby turkey, AKA a chicken.

what kind did you get?IMADreamer wrote:I got myself some dumbells with adjustable weights this week. I've been at it four days and I remember why I love weight lifting so much. I love that point where your arms say you don't have one more but your mind is saying ONE [expletive] MORE YOU [expletive]! Then you do it. I like walking around the rest of the day just feeling bigger. I'm hoping a little more focus on lifting while doing some cardio helps keep me going long term.

Re: Getting into shape
40lbs is not enough for me unfortunately. I went with the 200lb set.
Those bowflex ones look interesting but they also looked like they would not be durable.

Re: Getting into shape
[expletive] me, lifted legs on Tuesday and then played BBall at lunch yesterday then racquetball after work and my legs feel like they're about to fall off. Terrible idea.
