CELEBRITIES!

Yeah, Brian and I, we're kind of a big deal around here! ;-) BOTH reporters came to the gym to interview us today for the segment they're going to do. I had SOOOOOOOOO much fun with my interview!!!!!!!!!! Of course, it was mostly geared toward Brian because that's why I pitched the story to them, but they discussed my Paralympic dream as well. It's good exposure for me, no matter how large or small the amount of time. And it's GREAT exposure for Brian and his new endeavor of owning the gym. I really hope a good rep starts to get built and spread about him and it starts to bring in more business. .....and I really just have a big mouth and wanted to tell how much I appreciate everything he does for me :D I had a blast. I can't wait to do it again!!!! I probably talked crappy and choppy, but I talked how I always talk and I had a good time with the reporters. Brian was nervous. But, he said he appreciated me doing it for him. Hey, gotta do what ya gotta do, free advertising doesn't come along every day!

Brian wanted to show off for the cameras, so I got to do regular benching today. We worked up to around 170 lbs., just for one. He told me to take it easy on the reps since I have to do it again on Monday.
Dumbbell Bench Press - 40 lbs., 10. 45 lbs., 10. 50 lbs., 8.
I needed a drink between, and Brian told them not to tape, but I told them TO tape, and I think they did!! I'm strapped to the bench w/ all three straps and Brian lifts up the back of the bench to straighten me up so I can get a drink without being unstrapped! lol.
Dumbbell Skullcrushers - 15 lbs., 12. 20 lbs., 2 sets of 10.
(This is about when the camera people left.)
Tricep Pushdowns - 60 lbs., 20. 80 lbs., 20.
Then we did some abs. And we talked all about the interviews. :-D

I got a lot of sponsor checks in the mail yesterday. I'm totaling $1200 so far this year. That's an amazing start!! Very grateful.
