Default Finals Are Over!! Checking in with You

Hey everyone,

To all who are in high school and college, good luck with mid-terms and finals respectively.

I have been posting a lot over the last few days as I procrastinated during finals week. Now that x-mas break is here I will finally get to hang out here more.

I hope you all have been well and are having a happy holiday.

Nick- Nice going with 10,000 posts Nick, thats pretty nuts, did JP at least give you a certificate or something? I think you should start taking bets on when you will past JP!!

JP- Still holding down on the one of the best forums on the net, thanks for all of the great years!

Mahler, MMMM are always great, keep them coming.

Roland (LostDog), Looking great, hoping to meet up at a west coast seminar soon!

Kuri- Hows the training going? Taking over the west coast yet?

Danny (Dking)- What you up to man? Where you working at?

Frank- I saw your meet numbers, great job!

just need to check in with you guys, its been too long. Look forward to the discussing until the final semester of college starts...

And thanks again to all of you who have helped me start The FitCast, you guys believed in it when no one else did!

Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays to you too, Kevin!

I had to leave the boards for a while on Tuesday afternoon to do some work. From about 1:45 to 1:52. But I'm back now.

HAHA, RL, I must ask do you have all the MAD issues? My dad has them all from 1993 or 94 on.

I had some, but actually preferred CRACKED over MAD. Bigger cartoon boobies in the former. And the humor was a little more biting and sharp in CRACKED, I thought. But it was mostly about the boobies.

Good to hear from you Kevin & I've been enjoying the show. You've gotta get Tony on for a holiday film review episode though.

Taking over the Westside indeed. Cosgrove, Dos, CW, and Pavel are all gonna be coming to my seminars. Bitches.

I'm still experiencing the pain of finals...and grad school applications. Thank goodness I can (semi) relax soon, though I'll still be writing applications.

Whassup Kev? Glad you're done for a brief period. Now you can relax a little and let your brain go to mush (what I always did after a semester of straining it).

The forums are going great. You should go in and update your Zoints profile!

The gym is going even better right now. A year of unprecedented growth! I have really changed the gym too. Let's just say that Danny King would go nuts if he walked through the door.

RL, you can't count bathroom breaks as real work, even if you were constipated!

Nice to hear JP! Great job with the 20lbs's of weight loss! That is a pretty big feat!

It is a big commitment, but its fun now, I spend most of my time in the gym training people and I am doing a big independent study this semester. I am going to do about 20 videos of my favorite exercises, and show step by step how to perform them properly.

We are going to throw them on a DVD and put it on a loop in the gym on a large 50" plasma in the weight room. We are also going to offer them on youtube for the students to view as well.

Hey Kevin,
Just wanted to say huge fan of the fit cast and I know how you feel I am a junior and am starting to get into the classes that I really enjoy. Well hope all finals went well.

Just got back home myself from school today. Feels so good to be done with finals and have a few weeks off. Thinking about even joining a different gym while I am home for break for extra motivation! If I could only make some money now......

I'm a history major but I've taken various quantitative and business classes and I'm applying to Masters of Finance programs.
My friend is taking managerial accounting right now, it looks insane - so many formulas!
I just hate journal entries!

Exams are done for me as well. One more semester to go.

Currently sitting with 3 A+ (90%+), and waiting for 3 more marks.

So far so good.

I am just getting fat.
