all that training and cardio is really coming in handy
« on: April 12, 2007, 06:38:58 PM »
so i'm headed down to the gym for a leg workout when i see a dumbass in the middle of a feild with a blow torch. dry grass all around for a couple hundred feet after that you get in to thick under brush small trees dead tree's dead half rotten tree's laying on the ground all the stuff that just makes great fuel for a fire. basically an accident waiting to happen. so i head on over just as he hits the grass with it and with in seconds the flames had covered 30 feet or better so i'm out there with a shovel since thats all they had handy diggin up a bunch of dirt puttin in a line just before the underbrush on the east side of the fire they had two fat guys on the south side of it who actually managed to keep it from reaching the garage and propane tanks and on the north side there was a road on the west side of the flames was nothing to worry about with the wind heading east and a back burn already done. i finished a line on the east side before the two fatty's had half of their work done so i proceeded to help them with that. then i spent a little time pullin up some dirt and covering some hot spots.

anyhow this is just a success story of how weight lifting and cardio is really helping. before i couldn't have dug for five minutes before my arms were tired today half an hour and i'd put in a line(not like miles but a good size line)

Yep, my training and size deters the gang bangers in my business to think twice before backtalking me or my wife.  Physical fitness is the best deterrant, but if shit goes down, its nice to have yourself in tip top condition.
Most are all show no go!
