They perk is I get to pump gas out of the oil well in my backyard.
Don't you have a riot to attend or something.
With all the sibling squabbling out of the way and now that I've clearly lost I can say in good conscious that I don't own a cowboy hat. I don't currently own boots but I'm not opposed to them just for the reason above. You can wear them anywhere. They are the Texas version of the little black dress.

Yeah...they are pretty tough...the problem is that the people who are usually doing them on the mats make 'em look so easy too! We'll get there...and it will be exciting when we do!!!!

Yeah...I've noticed that the butt up is easier...I prefer them butt down...I don't need to draw any more attention to my butt...J/K...I like doing them the hard way...I'm a glutton for punishment...

Thanks Paula! A minute sounds like a LOOOOONG time...but I know I'll get there...someday!!! And yikes...90 secs...30 was killing me...and once I did the 30...I couldn't do 30 again...lol...

shiiiiit.
So, the "150" in there isn't 150. Aoife no know how to add, apparently.
*sigh*
It was easier though, and I don't know if with my ab soreness today I could have easily DONE 150, so it's just as well.
Shoulders can't handle more than 25 yet. No big deal, like bench I'll just work on form and control till it's easy and the next bump can be done.
Crunches, planks, bridging all reduced for weirdly sore abs. Prolly all the planks lately.
That's all 8 reps on the YTWL... I just forgot to write it in, I guess.
music:

idiot music - zeromancer

switchback - celldweller
i stand alone - godsmack
love in an elevator - aerosmith
famous last words- zeromancer
boy, for a random shuffle that's a lot of one artist at the top there...

Cardio
glutton, I guess
music:
what you waiting for - gwen stefani
i think i'm paranoid - garbage
mysterious ways - u2
make me believe - godsmack
the hand that feeds - nin
without me - eminem
I'm wiped.
Have work to do, cooking to do, cleaning to do.
Yard work that really really should get done.
*Sigh*
I either have to up my activity or severely lower my calories at this rate. Right now i'm running about a 500 deficit, give or take. We'll see. *sigh*

Make Me Believe is another good song. With all this talk of Godsmack I need to put some on and make it through the rest of the day.

Just that i don't translate this wrong: you do the deadlifts with 150 lbs=68 kg? You do deadlifts with my bodyweight? 
Just FYI, in my 6th workout, i used about 40 lbs with 15 reps

Well, not today. Today was 140 (63kg).
Everyone starts somewhere. I think I started with the bar at 45#... but I've also always been kinda strong... lots of heavy lifting, just not in the gym.
It's taken me ... 4 years to get here from about 100 pounds with my highly inconsistent training.
I'm sure you'll progress much quicker. especially once you're not doing 15 reps. I can't do hardly any weight for 15...

Your lack of sucky music disturbs me.
I have altered my log-reading plan to include yours. Pray I do not alter it further.
