I was curious to see what other people picture in their minds eye when trying to bust out that last set or rep or trying to do one more lap or whatever it is that you need to push yourself to get that extra little bit out of what you do.

I think about a hockey game, last minute in the period, just got on the ice, no gas left in the tank, grab a pass at the center line, deek the defense and make a sweet move on the goalie and put the bisket in the basket, top shelf where mamma hides the cookies!!

What do you guys think of??

I think of my incredible, fabulous man leaving me for some tall, buffed, chisled, blonde, tan chick whom I despise and I soldier on. No anxiety here...

He's so appreciative of my efforts and my acknowledgement of that he really loves the female form. I want him to be completely happy at all times. He doesn't ask for much and I'm so grateful to have him in my life that I would deny him nothing, especially something as simple as keeping my body in shape, for both of us. Obviously, I worship the ground he walks on. I think that is a good thing.

I think about a hockey game, last minute in the period, just got on the ice to play the net, no gas left in the tank, the opposition grab a pass at the center line, deek the defense and make a sweet move on the me and attempt to put the bisket in the basket, top shelf where mamma hides the cookies. I am down in the butterfly position anticipating a shot to the "5 hole" as I here the puck sail by my front defensemen. I than raise my blocker and deflect the last second bullet and save the day. The Islanders leave the ice as the Leafs celebrate the Stanly Cup victory. :big_smile:

I think about how good I will feel and the sense of accomplishment I will have after it is over.

And then I picture myself running down the beach in a thong without shakage on the part of my rear end.:surprised:

I think of intimidation every rep. The large mass of steel is just taunting me saying you can lift me. Then I lift it and rerack it knowing I beat myself gravity and the steel.- Mike

I could not put into words what does it for me, not only because it borders along what must actuate the Full Force of Evil to its end goals, but because to state it here would have it stricken anyway by a moderater. Undefiled rage, for a safer description. :angry:

Charlie, could you post a pic of yourself running along the beach in a thong? Because lately I've been having trouble finding a thought that helps me prolong the big bang when I'm with a lady :laugh:

Hey, no offense... the bikini is named, indirectly, after deadly bombs.

Shave?????

Either you need a hacksaw Charlie, or you need to buy yourself a thong that has more "substinance"...You know, something that has more cotton than what you would find in the top of an asprin bottle???.....:laugh::laugh:

I picture each and every time people have looked at me, then asked someone else to lift something for them because i looked too small. I think about a beautiful woman leaving me simply because of my looks (damn that would be one shallow woman, and it pisses me off and i lift). Then i think about, 'what if i CANT lift this weight, who am i gonna ask to help? my pride is too high to ask for it, so i better get this damn thing back up and re-rack it'

Dude ogun, if you want to prolong that bang, think of all the ish a medschool student learns - basal cell carcinomas, kinase receptors, Concentration gradients, septic shock, myocardial infarctions. The carcinogens invading a healthy lung as it inhales its first cigarette. Think of your ex-mother in law, or current mother in law, whichever the case may be....and many times thatll do it for anyone...but of course that could as well just kill it. the list goes on...
