When it comes to working out, no one inspires me more than the young Arnold Schwatzennggggar resembling Richard "Super Pump" Joseph. Like you remember this guy from Batman? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bane_%28comics%29) . That's Bane. If Bane ran into Richard Joseph in an alley, my money is on RJ. In about 12 months I have seen Richard transform from a guy who was twice my size become a dude 6 times my size. When I work out with RJ its a constant gauntlet of exercises and something I thrive off at the gym. Brandon MacDonnell will attest that I only have one speed at the gym: GO. Richard promises that today's back workout will have me hunched like a 70 yr old man for the upcoming week but that does not phase me or intimidate me one bit. After paying a crappy $16.85 for a one day drop in at "Fitness World" my least favorite muscle mart we begin the hour long fury of lifts, dips, presses, curls, rows and anything else Richard throws at me. All I can say is "RRAAWR". The animal is bending the bars of his cage. #sundayamazing is the way I feel every Sunday and this workout was nothing short of that.
#sundayamazing might be something that you see me tweet (@mrjeffbatchelor) often and that's because some of the worlds best thigns happen on Sunday. Hear from an old friend, having absolutely perfect weather, cruising in a convertible or having a killer breakfast reminiscing about last nights adventures!! Today was definitely one of those Sundays. After a killer work out and a protein shake, i dip home and grab my NEWLY bought skate and meet Richard at Plaza Skate Park. By far one of Vancouvers' nicest parks and home to alot of sponsored talent. I took me forever to get warmed up but before I knew it, Richard blew out a bearing. After a quick stop at Underworld skate shop on Granville, we head tp another skate spot near English Bay Beach Area. Now skating with a purpose to make up for lost time, Richard stomps trick after trick and I manage to pull out 4 or 5 tricks myself! Even heelfliping on my 3rd try! We skate for over an hour and were drenched by the end. Who knew I could still skate!!! Next was a quick dip in the Ocean and then got lost in 2 hours of Frisbee! I was tracking discs like a golden retriever and would have been more than happy to catch one in my mouth. Now I'm off to finish my weekend with a dinner with an old friend. Hope everyone has a better than normal Monday.
