Skywalker's final farewell

So, first of all, we want to apologize for our delay in adding more intriguing and entertaining gym stories for the past month. We know that you sit on the edge of your seats just waiting for the next Manlyribs post. Our new trainer, Jack, has not given us any truly inspiring information that we think you would find interesting. We will keep you posted on anything worth sharing.

While enjoying each other's company the other day, we realized that we totally forgot to tell you something incredibly important.....we recorded Skywalker's "I quit" conversation. It was too good to not share....mostly because we have concluded that it was completely made up.

When you listen, we want you to notice how he really tries to come off as a hero crusading on behalf of his 'poor helpless clients.' According to the head trainer, Bonaventure, Skywalker left to go back to his job working as a guard at a prison. Say what? He never told us that, especially in this conversation. We should warn you, Skywalker likes to use a lot of profanity. We hope you enjoy.

Listen here





Our next post will hopefully be a picture of this woman who comes to the gym every morning who looks almost exactly like.....Mick Jagger! We will have to be stealthy in our picture taking, but definitely worth it!

Love you like tomatoes and mozzarella cheese!

Another One Bite's the Dust

Skywalker quit today. Apparently he quit to continue his career as a corrections officer for a prison. Say what? He has had a lot of jobs while training us, but never a prison guard.

We are on our way to our 6th trainer.

Love you like.....love you like.....we've got nothing today.

Skywalker's Other Second Job

It just keeps getting better. So far, Skywalker has told us that he moonlights as a manager for bouncers at a series of clubs. He has also told us that his second job is as a body-building competitor. Today, he explained to us that his second job is as a trainer for Marines who can't pass boot camp.

Which is it? And if it's all of them, wouldn't they be his third....and fourth jobs? Is it a counting problem or a lying problem?


Love you like peanut butter and banana!

Is it an oxymoron to be a smoker who exercises?

Every Tuesday and Thursday, this same woman takes step class with us and as soon as she enters the room, there is trail of cigarette smell that follows her. By the end of the class, the entire room smells terrible: cigarette smoke mixed with sweat. Sick. It should be a crime.

Don't you think that it is counterproductive to exercise regularly and smoke? And, isn't that hard on your lungs?

Can we complain? Can we give her some febreze to carry with her? Any ideas?

Love you like marshmallows and graham crackers!

first offense

It is time to sell out my co-blogger.

Question of the day: is it "gym" acceptable to wear a
Halloween T-shirt to the gym in March?

Just remember...I have to work out with this T-shirt wearing friend every day! Don't you all worry... the second offense post will be coming soon!

Love you like french fries & ketchup

Skywalker, Chapter 2

When we left off, Skywalker had just moved in with his girlfriend of two weeks. We are sure you will find it completely unsurprising that he and his girlfriend have broken up and logically, he is living in his truck until he is able to move in to his new apartment in two weeks.

He came in really cranky this morning because his body-building sponsors are unhappy that he isn't gaining enough weight. Apparently, he gets paid 40,000 dollars a year to lift weights and look amazing.

And...he also told us that he manages bouncers for clubs at night.

Does this seem as confusing to you as it does to us? He lives in his car with his 40,000 dollar body-building check plus his bouncer check?

But at least he is thriving at work. According to Skywalker, ALL of the other trainers copy all of the moves he has his clients do. Hmmm. We wonder what the other trainers would say.

Did we mention that he has a mohawk?

We know your thinking that we made Skywalker up. We wish we had. Skywalker is the real deal and we will fill you in on his latest drama as we learn of it!
