Gossip From Jett

Jett also informed me of the time that Mikaere and him walked past Tod about three weeks ago. “How are you going” Mikaere announced to Tod knowing that he’s been saying shit about him and as Tod extended his hand to greet him Mikaere hit him across the face sending him flying to the ground. “I didn’t say anything man” were Tod’s first words and as Ali tried telling Mikaere to calm down Mikaere shouted out “Shut the fuck up”. Ali didn’t say shit after that, that’s when Mikaere knew that Ali was fucked up for spreading the rumor that he can whip Mikaere’s ass.

Tod was left lying on the ground and Mikaere walked away soon after that, fancy that. Jett informed me that Mikaere doesn’t like Ali at all for thinking he’s a hard Leb and he doesn’t like Simon either for obvious reasons that night long ago that we prevented a rape. Simon’s house was on Mikaere’s hit list to rob because he didn’t like him and they were scoping it out for a while but Jett found out that none of the shit in the house was Simon’s, it was all Lucas’s shit.

Some more shit that Jett confirmed to me was that Masozi was indeed gay and Ralf was the one that learnt off Jett the facts. Jett learnt first hand because he knew the guy that came down here from America. As the story goes, Masozi still owes the American guy over $2000 for taking him to Restaurants and buying him clothes. What I also hear is that Masozi got kicked out of the car when he asked the American guy if he wanted his dick sucked by another guy, meaning Masozi.

Ralf and the Spider

The last story of the night was how Jett pulled up to Ralf at the set of lights near Macarthur Square. Jett was on his mountain bike and as Ralf started rolling down the window a huge spider crawled in and as Ralf is shit scared of spiders he put his foot down on the accelerator in panic and fled off. When Jett came over to my house the night that I was taping the porno’s for Ace was the night he was at Ralf’s house asking him why he fled off so quickly.

Having to leave my house to head for Video Ezy in Bradbury to rent some games I asked him to look around for a modem that I want to purchase for a cheap price this fortnight.

Dreaming of a Car

I’m thinking of putting $50 into my Credit Card and begin paying that back because more increasingly like the trend is these days I want myself a car. Paying off my Credit Card will send me closer and closer to my dream of owning a car and give me peace of mind. To get myself a job as a laborer for a while should do the job for me, at least until mid next year when I can get my life in order.

What would be good is if I can start working with Jett at the factory but I doubt I will even attempt to ask him plus, I wouldn’t work there for long so I don’t want to taint Jett’s name. All I need is real good money for a couple of months, good enough to start my quest into buying a car, after that it’s all smooth road.

Weekend Plans Shuffle Again

Giving Lyssa a call back we once again talked of the weekend and our plans had changed once again. Lyssa informed me that her mum was staying home on Friday so that idea was out of the picture. Once again Lyssa treated her mind with Saturday but she knew that I would be out with my friends and I don’t want to invite Lyssa over to my house and have people knocking on the door every ten minutes. Sunday was our best bet and Lyssa told me that she won’t be able to come over unless it’s early in the day so we might have to arrange that.

Friday night Lyssa tried concealing her night so I wouldn’t get angry but she informed me that she wasn’t going to the party anymore but out with Ali and Penelope. For a little while I was a bit quiet but I stopped caring. Lyssa isn’t going out for too long and I gather that they will probably just drive to Mobil and have one of their hourly conversations before heading back home. Lyssa and I talked about her asking Penelope to drop her off at my house but the both of us felt that it wouldn’t be a good idea.

Lyssa didn’t have that much problem in asking Penelope but she voted against it. Our conversation finished ten minutes after it started and halfway writing through these pages of my Diary. Now the time is 10:28 p.m. and seeming that no one has called me to see what is happening tonight I have time yet to finish what I was speaking of Wednesday.

A Sleepless Meteor Night

Wednesday now we speak of and my tired night beforehand. The meteor shower predicted was pretty shit and I kept myself up until the early hours of the morning just to view clouds. However, Shawn and Tatton were with me for Tuesday night but I can’t complain. Lyssa gave me a call around 2:00 p.m. from work on Wednesday but conversation wasn’t very grand as I was muddled in my words due to lack of sleep. Lyssa just basically asked how I was doing and answering that one Lyssa told me she would let me go so I could get some sleep.

Snaking out of bed around 3:00 p.m. I knew that I had to visit the Gym, it was something I needed to do. Motivated for that reason to jump out of bed I had myself some spaghetti and almost immediately after I walked my way down to the Gym. Warming up my muscles became effortful and from there I knew that I was either lacking in energy or the ‘Over-Training’ bug had struck a chord in my muscular body. Here anyway is my workout that reaped some benefits and has my Chest mainly in good pain…

Chest Day Report

Chest: Warming up was somewhat differentiated but I still reaped rewards. Jumping onto Peck Deck Fly’s with 50 pounds I performed 20 slowed reps. Once again I performed on the peck deck with the same amount of weights but only 12 reps. Assisted Dips was mounted with weight equaling my body weight. The aim of this was mainly to stretch my Chest muscles. Converting a set of 12 reps with 30 pounds on Triceps Pushdowns I moved to Pullovers. 35 pounds was the usual weight and 12 reps was the estimated range.

Bench Press with 160 pounds was once again my first heavy set and with a spotter I achieved 7 reps by myself and three assisted reps. Moving to Seated Machine Bench Press I loaded the weight up to 160 pounds and again popped out 6 reps. Placing the weight down to 140 pounds I performed 6 more reps before giving in. Moving to normal Peck Deck with 50 pounds I performed 10 reps. Decline Dumbbell Press was given a positive effort with 55 pounders and as I forced my reps I completed 6 reps.

Triceps Pushdown was once again tried with 40 pounds, this time I completed 10 reps. Deciding against a heavy set of pullovers I performed two sets on Cable Crossovers. Both with 40 pounds and 10 reps each I crossed my arms standing erect and then the second set bent over for a great contraction. My last set was on Dips where I crunched out 7 reps.

Back and Biceps

Back: Poundage for my Back muscles were good this Wednesday. Starting with a warm-up on Wide Grip Lat Pulldowns on 40 pounds I performed 12 reps. Stretching somewhat I easily performed 10 reps with 80 pounds. Feeling confident I pulled the same weight again with a bit more trouble but eased out 10 more reps. Seated Cable Rows was next and after my warm-up I persisted with 10 reps on 120 pounds. Moving to Close Grip Lat Pulldowns with 110 pounds I performed a hard set of 8 reps. My last set was on One Arm Dumbbell Rows and with 70 pounds I performed 10 reps per hand.

Biceps: Considerably tired by now I started on a warm up with Standing Cable Curls and then with the same weight of 30 pounds I reversed my grip and done some reverse curls for 10 reps. Moving to Preacher Cable Curls I pushed 10 grueling reps with 40 pounds. My last set was on Standing Dumbbell Curl with 30 pounders as I performed 10 reps.

Abdominals: Last on the Agenda as usual was my Abdominals and still having some energy left I performed two sets of 30 reps with 30 pounds assistance. Placing that weight up to 70 pounds I performed 20 reps to cap off my day.

A Smarter Gym Plan

In regards to my weight program I’ve got to start getting calculated and more goal orientated. What I mean in saying that is I shouldn’t just be going into the Gym and doing what feels good to me. Rather, I should have a basic plan of what I feel would work on the day and then adjust them accordingly on the day. This means that I will jump in there with a goal every day, something like ten reps with 160 pounds on Bench press and then a completely different goal for another body-part.

Another thing I have to accomplish is more days and workouts at the Gym per week, something like three. Yes, I’m getting back into the weights and it’s going to be great working out with motivation again. The aim will be to get as big as I can get with the program and time I have just before summer and the new year arrives. Listed on the next page is the program that I think will best benefit me and with this program I can probably get myself a weekly ticket and work other body-parts on off days.

Routine shall be my best force onto my muscles and favoring my Chest I will start doing more Bench Press sets with slightly lower weight to build my strength. Instead of allowing only one set like a power set I’ll have more time to help build that exercise to full blossom. Here is my program…

Monday Chest Biceps Abdominal

Wednesday Back Triceps Abdominal

Friday Chest Biceps Abdominal

Monday Back Triceps Abdominal

Wednesday Chest Biceps Abdominal

Finishing the Weekly Roster

Friday Back Triceps Abdominal

Notice that I work muscles opposing to each other as not to give too much stress to that isolated area. In my beliefs my back won’t be affected in the second workout of the roster by my Biceps because they would have healed by that time, same with Triceps. Abdominals get a chance to be worked out twice as much per week and altogether nothing really changes except for Triceps being brought into play, Abdominals getting more of a workout and more time devoted to each major muscle group.

If you placed the green and the yellow days together for two weeks you would still get the same days I usually work out. Now that I’ve split my back and Chest workouts to opposing days of the week I can still get all the work done but devote more energy to each specific body part, cool.
