Mine is a really old assed minolta, from Otto's father and easily 30+ years old. He thought the light meter was broken and was getting something new anyway about 12 years ago gave it to us. I finally pull it out to use it, and the only problem is a dead battery.
And the chick who was my instructor for my independent study (lighting design) has a bunch of lenses and filters she doesn't use anymore (her camera broke and she never got it fixed.) I'm gonna find out today how much she wants.

worked out today
still sore so it was mostly recovery
ramping up
shoulders suck
scans will come at some point, I'm tired of typing this crap.
I might ocr for fun, since that's what we're working for here...
oops, apparently I never got around to putting up the 9th's workout. here.
Which basically says that I did some overhead squats in which the weight was low because that's all my shoulders can handle, some weak-assed shoulder exercises, and some core stuff.
I think for the moment, since I've just recently seemed to correct my hammy/glute imbalance, that I'm gonna stick to squats that are very challenging without being a lot of weight. So, overheads, single legs, etc for now.
I did a few things in between last workout posted and this one, but mainly just some stretching, movement prep, cardio, landscaping, etc.
I decided to bop back up to lower reps, but still taking it easy. So the rdls are good warmups, the deads were a bit lights, and everything else is more core work. The pushups i went for quality over quantity, so they're slow and low and very few with my shit shoulders and extra pounds. same to be said for the reverse pushups, which I'm totally not good at anyway.
Tweaked my shoulder again on the jackknife, which was already pretty horizontal because of shoulders, but the ache has gone away now, mostly.
I have. I've actually been slacking big time. So much so that I don't even to rehab.
So when I lift, I actually take good care, am sure not to overdo it, and promptly get my shoulders into better condition. My problem now is more like weakness, because I've taken care of the other problems. I used to have too large a rom for the strength at the extremes, and that led to lots of problems. So while it's frustrating and I'll complain about it... it's only frustrating in that I've not been keeping up and they're the first thing to lose strength and I have to start over.
Damn, that prolly came out like weird. I should get some caffeine. Too early. Only 11.
Some are linked to hormonal issues. Hence, sometimes people are more susceptible during hormonal changes in their lives... I guess adolescence counts for that... heh.
Yeah, he's feeling better, as of a couple days. Still worried about exertion though, since before simple walking up the stairs would trigger.
I have summer off, during which I'm going to work to then test out of the next spanish class as well as do personal crap and work out like crazy to get myself out of this vicious cycle I've got going on.
I feel better, too. Which is frustrating... because I KNOW that I like working out... but I'm SO bad at consistency lately.
I mean, hell, I've been shooting for something every day and I'm lucky if I get once every 3.
I miss being able to OH squat. But my conditioning and strength is coming back quickly. I expect by end of month to be kicking some major ass again. *grin*
took it easy, it was late and I was draggin... doesn't seem late, I know, but I've been waking up early and am weening myself off all the sugar I'd had in my diet lately, so while I'm not crashing, I'm lower energy than normal.
I did the rdl's with db to work on my grip, as I seem to work grip better with dumbbells than the bar. Bar = waay easier. Needed to hold onto the rack for the pistols, the relative lack of flexibility and extra weight are likely to blame. I really feel weird in this big body. It'll be gone soon.
The physioball pushups were challenging as hell since I was stupid and did them after the planks, and that the ball apparently was INCREDIBLY deflated. heh. ALL the way down and up, s-l-o-w-l-y... so yeah, that's all I could manage.
Tomorrow I have some cardio scheduled that WILL get done. I'm also making planks, stair runs, and YTWL daily. I'm ready to decide what program to do, but not sure what. Maybe HELL, need to re-look that over.
I really do need to find myself 20 pounds lighter by the end of the summer in 3 months... and back to single digit sizes. I've been sure to ramp up and not overdo it in the beginning, but my workouts are not leaving me sore for days anymore, so I'm ready for the tough shit.
I'm giving myself a week or 2 of cardio rampup before I take the bike out and let the BAD RDU drivers have at me.
lol... this sat here waiting to post for hours... heh. I heart ADD
