oh my, have i found a jewel of a website or what. strengthcoach.com. I will be refering to that site on a regular basis for people that are starting to lift, and spending hours clicking away at their really simple yet addicting games.



the following link will show you really common exercises at the gym, and teach you how to properly do them with animation. it's even better than watching the videos on menshealth.com to some extent because it focuses on where your joints should be.

and for some mindless clicking fun, here are games from the same site.

i hold the record for the javelin (today only), and all time best record for the discus. this site will get my best site of the year award for sure.



working out at the gym today was a different experience to say the least. it was more crowded than usual. the women's volleyball team has started working out there on mondays, and when they are there, they close the pit. and this creates madness at rimac for 2 reasons. 1, all the people that would be working out at the pit are out of the pit trying to lift elsewhere. 2, there are more guys there just to check the volleyball team out. the paper thin black covering they wear for uniforms probably amplifies reason 2. so to some extent, i bet some guys use that excuse to make it to the gym. whatever gets you there i guess. great for guys who want to check girls out in skimpy uniforms, awful for guys who are more concerned about lifting. they left by 6, and the gym felt empty again. i can't imagine what it'll be like at 5pm when all the students are back and the pit is closed. i might have to make sat and sun my primary lifting days.
