Praying in the gym?
« on: May 08, 2006, 03:37:00 PM »
How many of you say a prayer before attempting a lift in the gym? 

Today I did deadlifts and found myself saying a little prayer before going for a max.

Team Jesus, speak on this!

If Jesus and God did exist, with over 3 billion people on this little rock in a small corner of this vast universe, do think they would really care about you deadlifting 135 lbs?  Get real.

perhaps some choose to pray to allah, or to their lord of choice.  

i was worried about a hernia... weird pulling pain in my abs... so i figured it couldn't hurt to wake up my guardian angel before maxing.  I did, however, fail to get 405 all the way up :(

Karma will never let you deadlift 405

Image how heavy it would have been if you would have grabbed the bar in the middle instead of lifting one end.   ;D

I pray before masturbating. I find that it eases the guilt if you beg for forgiveness before commiting the act.

sometimes it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

This reminds me of that scene in Pumping Iron 2, the women, where Rachael McLish gets upset when people say Jesus or God while working out

 I prayed before performing my max bench. I got that 185 up fairly easily and quickly pointed upward.
