    Happy TGIF! BIG win for the 9ers last night!!! I hate the Lambs and any time we beat them it's great! The big drawback is that Mac Jones was the starting QB for my opponent this week but I wAasn't favored to win anyway. But I have Jones in my other league so eh, is what it is.

    Cardio Warmup: Jogging (Two miles)

    Strength: Lower Body Day

    Squat 4x10
    Rack Pull 5x5, 1x1 New Personal Best!
    Hack Squat 3x20
    Seated Calf Raises 2x10, 2x20
    Leg Extensions 2x12
    Seated Leg Curl 2x12
    Machine Crunches 3x15
    Stretching 15 minutes

    Analysis: My gym had signs out promising five new pieces of leg equipment coming this next week, and has started to move existing equipment around to make room. No idea what the equipment will do, just know the weights section is a bit of a hot mess right now.

    No planned workout for tomorrow, my church choir is having a retreat to get a first look at the music we will be performing for our Christmas concert in December.

    Food: Last night was goulash, tonight is date night with my wife (she's leaning towards Italian)

    I didn't run this week and boy have I missed it. I was at the gym about 2 hours today (I underreported my mat workout on the other thread, now that I've added up the time); I attempted to get my fix from the rower and elliptical machines, but nothing works like running. Such a weird conundrum: I slept badly last night and ended up working out more today.

    163.8 on the scale this morning. I've had a tough work week and not slept or eaten enough because of stress. Also sciatic nerve pain. :(

    No workout for me yesterday, as traffic added an extra hour to my commute. No workout for me today, as church choir interferes.

    Dinner last night was French dip sandwiches.

    Cardio (Warmup): Jogging, 1 mile

    Strength: Upper Body

    DB Bench «superset» DB Row 4x10
    Incline Bench Press «superset» Pullups 3x12

    Gym: The promised new equipment got installed overnight, and was all the rage for the curious wanting to check it out. There's equipment which simulates squat, deadlift, lunges, glute kickback, and a hamstring hyperextension. All shiny and new, all look like they'll do the job, and all of them I'm gonna avoid. I prefer free weights or cables when possible.

    Food: Last night was French onion chicken with baked tater tots

    Today's weight: 161.8 vs. 164.4 earlier this week, vs. 170 lbs on 9/6. I've lost 8.2 pounds in the last month: stress, not eating enough, working out hard, ugh. I'm getting close to my goal but I wanted to stretch out the last phase, or partially wanted to. My summer maintenance phase is over, that's for sure.

    I originally wrote a longer post but it disappeared when I lost my Internet connection last night.

    161.4 lbs on the scale this morning. I go in for labs tomorrow, so that's an additional stress, but on the positive side, some extra work I've been doing is ending this week. The "free time" I have had over the last weeks mainly goes toward daily workout sessions. Something additional --reading for fun!?!-- would help.

    Hey gang,

    Happy Monday! Well not really after the 9ers lost but more importantly my favorite defensive player is likely out for the season because of a dislocated and fractured ankle. Our chances have been greatly diminished now.

    Another week of having to be in the office extra early and then trying to get my workout in after work. Two weeks ago I made it work; last week was mixed results. Will see how well this week goes.

    My Broncos won to stay in a tie for the division lead (all four teams in the division won). Wasn't a pretty win, barely squeaked past a winless team, kept committing stupid penalties to kill promising scoring drives. But at the end of the season, the only stat which will matter is "Did you win week 6? Yes!" (Getting 9 sacks in one game was fun to watch, especially since I have the Broncos Defense for my fantasy football team! Little nerve-wracking now, as I have three players tonight…one injured and uncertain to play…and my opponent has one player plus a 28 pt lead, so still could go either way.)

    Strength: Push Day

    Bench Press 5x5
    Wide-Grip Bench Press 3x10
    Narrow-Grip Bench Press 3x15

    Fantasy Football: Finished the week 1-5, a terrible week (especially my Bay Area team, where I entered MNF with three players to my opponent's one yet his one outscored my three combined). But my Broncos won, so we'll call it a good weekend of football.

    Bay: L (3-3)
    AC1: L (2-4)
    AC3: L (4-2)
    AC4: L (2-4)
    AC6: L (2-4)

    Hey gang,



    "I like myself unconditionally!"


    Happy Tuesday! Off today. On my way home last night my engine check light comes on and my van starts running rough. Likely ignition coils or spark plugs/misfiring. I can't fix it on my own because the coils are buried underneath the dashboard and I don't have the tools to do it. So since I need a vehicle for work for the next month and a half, I brought it in today to get repaired. Ugh. I didn't want to spend anymore money before leaving.

    Happy Humpday! Shipment day. Got lucky. Only one ignition coil was defective and it was in the front where it was reachable. I only paid for the diagnostic and replace the coil myself.

    Happy TGIF! Well a good start to both my FFL leagues. I was in dire need for an RB so I trade with last year's champ and gave him my backup QB and WR for and RB and WR who he's had on the bench. Lol, ironically I play him this week. Hopefully 9ers win this weekend against the Falcons.
