Friday Feralicious Part 2 - Trying Out My Birthday Present

Birthday present!

For my birthday earlier this week, princessmichelle got me the present that every man dreams of -- a pair of totally sweet black lifting straps with flaming skulls embroidered on them.  Since I knew I wanted to do shrugs on my return to the gym, I decided that this evening was the time to try them out.

Tonight's workout started with completing my dead lift sets, and a hundred more each of push ups, sit ups, and squats.  I pushed myself to my previous max on the dead lifts, but had to stop there.

Then I went to the squat rack to rock my new straps on the barbell shrug.  They worked pretty well, and it was pretty obvious that everyone in the free weight area was jealous.

I finished up with some dumbbell and calf work and then returned home to take care of Michelle, who has fallen ill with some kind of mild fever.  Wish her a quick recovery!  (She's gotta be better by tomorrow if she's gonna make it to her morning workout!)
