Look What I Picked Up At A Thrift Store Getbiggers!!!
« on: February 04, 2017, 02:58:17 PM »
Was doing my usual weekend shopping for antiques and vintage goods when I happened upon something that you would normally not find.  I was at Miracle Hill Ministries Thrift Store when I found a practically brand new Schwinn 430 Elliptical Trainer....never even been used.  Asked them how much and it was just 119 dollars.  Pretty much a no brainer.  Already did 30 minutes on it at home and its fucking awesome.  Only thing it was missing was the AC adapter which I got coming from an Ebay vendor for 6 bucks.


This is why I do what I do...never know what you'll run into

How did you get it home?  Were you able to fit it in your Jeep?

See, this is what I like about Vince Goodrum, CSN, MFT, HHP, CEO. Sure, Vince could have went out and purchased an expensive ellpitcal like the one below.



But, instead, he wants to stay in touch with the common man, so he purchases one for $119.

Uhaul truck was 19.99, Insurance 14.00.  Total with mileage was 53 bucks.  Could have waited a few days to borrow one from a friend but I didn't feel like hauling it on a day I have to work.

$200 dollars for something to collect dust = bad investment.

Same formula as before.  Standard Ketogenic Diet with 2 carb loads a week.  4 days weight training, minimal cardio.  Eating plenty of flank steak and chicken.  No real supplements at this time except multi-vitamins.  I'll go full throttle in mid March.
