It was a pretty weird scene.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday I was talking to Jorgen at the gym about the weight he was using during the workout. I did OK with 30lb dumbbells, but he was using 35lb.

In any case I felt like falling over several times tonight as well, so I suppose that&#8217;s OK. That&#8217;s what I&#8217;m there for, to work out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We had burger club tonight but we were missing two of the founding members.
