Pumping my own fat to Lamb of God
I am starting to feel a lot better after surgery in the last few days and was getting all antsy lately about working out. Therefore, I started working out again tonite. We’ll see how my butt feels later to judge if it was too soon, but at the moment I am feeling pretty darn good. Endorphins! Endorphins!
I rode the stationary bike for almost 45 mins (370 calories, 10 miles) while watching Noam Chomsky and Daniel Craig on Charlie rose. Then I busted out the total gym thing and did a bunch of various reps listening to Lamb of God. I say “pumping my own fat” instead of “pumping iron” because the total gym thing uses your own body weight (vs. weights) and gravity as resistance. I don’t know what it is, but goddamn Lamb of God makes me want to work out. I think the music invokes this sort of instinct in me to be on stage all tattooed and ripped with my shirt off screaming bloody murder into a mic. On that note, ambient chill makes me want to sit around all somber and smoke cigarettes. I think maybe it is time to switch back to listening to thrash metal – FOR MY HEALTH.
