You can usually get shirts in some of the promos on here. As far as stores, most of the time you can get them when there's a special like buy x product and get free shirt.

Going to keep the diet today the same as yesterday. Today will be a rest day; but i might go to some cardio if i can get to the gym. Feeling a little sore from yesterdays workout; which is a good thing, haven't been sore if a while. Also hoping this rest day will help me get a new bench PR tomorrow, I'm quite close to my goal.

Downside of today is that no mail comes on Sunday. Hopefully i'll have 2 or 3 packages waiting for me Monday, though.

Edit:

Went to the gym and got some cardio in after all. Did 7 miles on the bike (around 30 minutes) and did a quarter mile sprint on the treadmill. The goal was to burn some calories and get sweating without ruining my legs for squats tomorrow. I think i did so pretty successfully .

Yup .
Going to take it before my lifting class at school.

Nice. What kinda class is that? Is that like body pump or more like bodybuilding training?

[kingnickandnate]

It's a mix of everything. The name they put on it is "body mechanics." I live in a small town, but we're known for our high school football, so the class is basically built around the football and wrestling team. It's basically teaching the basics and compound exercises to new kids, while letting the experienced lifters do what they want.

How's that going for u?

[kingnickandnate]

It helps out a lot. Between school, homework, work, and maintaining some sort of social life, i don't have much time to workout. Lol. Having a class at school designated to exactly what i need is perfect. And i have it 5th hour (last class of the day), so i can finish up the class and just stay after and lift after school - works out great . But that's why my logs have a double workout sometimes.

Yeah i like it.
To be honest, i was thinking we were one of the only ones who had these type of classes.

I dunno about high schools but most colleges have them especially universities

I know that the college im going to next year has a nice size gym for lifters, but i wasn't sure on a class. I mean, i know they have health classes, but not sure on lifting related classes. Wouldn't mind taking one - i need a health credit anyhow.

If its a small college they most likely don't have a class that's more bodybuilding style but they prob have sumthing called bodypump or sumthing like it with another name that's very light weight and high reps that they pretty much do the whole body. Bodybuilders will scoff at it but it burns like crazy even though the weight is very light
