Sometimes, after a good workout at the gym, I wonder why I ever leave that place. It’s an experience of holistic medicinal quality to the red-blooded, meat-eating male.
Anyways, take today… I started by watching a little Giants/Lions football and sucking down some hot Buffalo wings (one of God’s gifts to Men - ranking up there with air and water). With the sound of butting helmets still in my ears, and Frank’s Red Hot coursing through my veins, I went to my local gym. There, I lifted some iron (my back-bicep-shoulder routine) while watching more football on the multiple TV screens in the free weight area. Something about watching sports can really get the testosterone going… it’s just a better workout that way. Hit one muscle group until it’s dead… then hit another related group until it’s dead… then another. After about a half hour I reached muscle failure in all my target groups, so I moved from the room of iron to the room of cardio-contraptions. I hopped on an elliptical machine - equipped with cable TV - and promptly turned on… wait for it… football! Thirty minutes of nasty sweat production while flipping between Steelers/Jets and Cowboys/Redskins. I can already sense the amino acids from the formerly Cayenne-kissed poultry-protein rebuilding my muscle tissue. Nice.
Take a quick shower and I feel like a million bucks, and my iron-lifting had successfully removed any calorie-guilt carried over from bleu-cheese-lifting. I was left in just the perfect state-of-mind for watching the Patriots continue their reign of dominance.
I have to say it was a good day.

Girls like wings AND the gym!
@ the girls :: Indeed, you bring up a good point… I didn’t even read it from that angle. I must ponder further on how to capture what I’m trying to say.
Waraxe, theres no reason to look at stuff like that that seriously. The guys doin what all guys should do (and women) it’ good for you your happy and shit why not have a beer in ther too.
So, I know you love those Bills/Patriots matchups because you can feel good about whatever happens. As not a Patriots fan… I can’t. The only thing good about Sunday was that the Dolphins continued to prove that they are the worst team in the NFL. We’re lucky we’re from Western New York. If an ass kicking like that happened to a home team in LA (if LA had a home team), the whole city would still be burning. It was like watching a pro team play Olean High.
Is that you in the picture! You hunk of manliness, you! Lets challenge one another to a true weight lifting challenge…. the 12 oz curl! yum!
I’m a Lions fan myself, but I’m not rooting for them until they’ve redeemed themselves. They had a good first half of a season, but they’re starting to stink again.
@ samuel :: Yeah, while my momentum was waxing eloquent I almost stuck in something about a good ale in there.
@ John :: I think LA trash can probably find a reason to burn their own neighborhoods down whenever they want… in fact, perhaps there WAS a riot after the Buffalo loss.
@ BA :: MMmm…. 12 oz curls. Or better yet, a 23 oz mug. I’ll take that challenge!
@ John3Sobieski :: They have already started down the slippery slope.
On a brighter note, my high school football team just won the division 4 Michigan championship. Go Mariners!!!!!
