Miki y Ja (Miki and Me): First In, Last Out.

"DAIR EES . . . . DAH MAN! FIRST IN! LAST OUT!"

Thus bellowed the voice of Miki, my Serbian strength trainer Thursday morning.

"Huh??" was my uber-articulate reply.

"You arrrrrrrrrrrrrre . . . **pause grin** . . . . dah MAN! Firstone een da gym. Last one out."

Of course, it would be Miki who coins the phrase that will be the motto for Greyhound 2.0--the training. That is what I want my training to be. First In. Last Out. It is the mantra I repeated to myself this morning when I did not want to go to masters swim practice. "First In. Last Out." Swim, I did.
And in breaking news, Greyhound's workout yesterday included 5 sets of heavy lifts, in which Greyhound benchpressed 5 sets of 5 using the same weight that was his one rep max earlier this summer.
Greyhound started referring to himself in the third person when he began completing Eastern Bloc powerlifter workouts and asking his Serbian trainer to add some weight to the bar in the last sets.
WOOF!!

Great execution!

I found it a little spooky to see that you already have an IMMoo countdown going. Isn't that a few hills over the horizon still? ;-)

I'm confused, are you training for a triathlon or are you fighting Rocky Balboa?
