Steel 0 #1 June 26, 2003 It seems like a cycle, kind of like cold, that once it starts you just have to wait for it to run its course. Oh vacations start out nice. You're all pumped up after you last work out and your on your way. Then you find yourself eating more than usual. But hey how could just a couple of meals make a difference. Then you find yourself at the dropzone local where you’re vacationing weighing yourself to see what your wingloading is at. Wow your exit weight is five pounds heavier than usual. How cool! Now your wingloading is up by .1, then it starts to dawn on you that means you just gained five pounds. You don't think that came from mucsle since you haven't worked out in the past three days. But you just blow it off thinking its no big deal. Then you look in the mirror before getting on the load and it looks like your belly is sticking out under the chest strap. But you think its all in your imagination. Then you comfort yourself thinking so I gained a few pounds at least its not like I got weaker or so you think. A week later you get home and attempt putting your weight lifting belt as you usually do and find you can't get it to the last notch. Now this is getting serious. Then you go to do you bench workout and find you not only have gained weight right there on what should be a washboard stomach but you have gotten weaker too. And then you find yourself bitching about it on dropzone.com with your weight-lifting belt still on between exercises because you are afraid that if you take it off you won't be able to get it on as tight again. This of course that confirms vacations suck.If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass. Can't think of anything I need No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound. Nothing to eat, no books to read.

wmw999 2,589 #2 June 26, 2003 Bwahahaha! That sounds like about as accurate a description as I've ever heard I just plan for it; that way I can tell myself it was on purpose when it all happens. Of course, my washboard stomach is padded, too Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpeedRacer 1 #3 June 26, 2003 I can safely say that I have "six-pack" abs. I will leave it to you to figure out what that really means. Speed Racer -------------------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
