yawp

I had to work out without my minidisc player yesterday for the first time, as I had forgotten to recharge its battery. I therefore found out two rather interesting facts about myself:

1. I concentrate much better on what I am doing without the music - it is not that smart to try and match Dannii's rhythm while mouthing the lyrics when you're holding a couple of 14kg dumbbells and you're upside-down on a decline bench, and

2. I grunt when I lift weights. This is exactly what I despise in other people, and always find completely unnecessary, a total lack of manners and even a bit of a show off. I had not realized I do the same. Big loud squawky grunts too.

Next week I'll be practicing spitting on the floor and rearranging my assets in public, if I don't watch myself.

    Sorry I got stuck on "try and match Dannii's rhythm"… what on earth was she doing in your gym? P.S. The link is screwed

    Well, contrary to public opinion, Dannii did not have a boob job - those are simply overdeveloped pecs. I usually have to fight with her to get to use the bench press. Link fixed now, thank you for pointing it out.
