You're putting me to shame podmate.

I need to step things up but right now, I've got every conceivable excuse you could imagine.

Keep up the good work Mike...hugs.

I honestly can't wait to get back to the GYM! Between the back, and the knee, I haven't been in a LONG TIME. I miss it horribly.

I hear ya Corrine. I keep making excuses for not going during the week, when I used to go almost every day when I was preparing for surgery pre-op and then newly post-op, even back when I had my loooong commute. But, I'm proud of myself -- I went today even if I did a bit of a shortened session. I'm using people like Mike to keep me motivated. Go Mike!!

Now that you are Mister Buff, you'll have to come riding with me to feel a whole new pain You will discover muscles and body parts you never realized you have...nor that your trainer would even think of working on

I don't think I'm at a Bucking Bronco stage yet...perhaps a "Buckled" Bronco?

I've never ridden a horse before, but a girl in college kicked me in a certain area one time and I walked for a day or two looking as though I had.

Maybe in another 50 pounds.
