Well this morning I did chest & back exercises with bands. That is, untill the band came loose and slingshotted itself into my face and hand.

Now I look like someone beat me up with some nice markings under my eye and nose. Also 2 fingers on my right hand are swollen. Luckily it doesn't really hurt. Only my hand is a little sensitive when making a fist.

I guess this will be fun at work when I have to visit some clients this afternoon...

    haha good idea!

    I was just bored before work, because my workout got cut off so i figured why not make a post about it. At least it gave someone a laugh :)

    You weren't supposed to do the part where the girl in the back of the room hits Tony in the face with the bands

    oh really? I just did everything. Telling the one chick she's gorgeous during warmup, comparing shoes with that other guy. Telling myself to put ego aside and use something lighter (then for some reason a few seconds later he says "nobody is lifting more then me" and he picks heavier weights lol

    In my case they asked if I was into kinky stuff :noway:

    I've uppercut myself with weights a few times. Didn't learned the first time I guess.
