Oregon FatMan Unleashed!
Back in May, I wrote about a new class being offered at my gym, the Power Course. I’ve been taking this class twice a week for almost 2 months now and I’m loving it! It’s a challenge and I am definitely ‘feeling it’ afterwards, but the BEST thing I’m feeling is firm. That’s right, I’m admitting it here on FatBloggers, I am enjoying feeling the firmness growing under the ever-shrinking layer of soft gushiness.
The other night, The Boy and I were doing one of the things that I wanted to do when I started this whole project… we were screwing around. He thinks that he is the big 6th grade football stud, of course I have to take him down a couple notches. He is 5′4″ and 109 lbs of 100% BOY, so I crouch down a bit and hoist him over my shoulders. As he is squealing like a girl, he’s grabbing my arms. He says, “Wow Dad! You are BUFF!”
Is that an ego boost or WHAT?!?!?!
Fellow blogger and all around awesome guy, Israel over at FatManUnleashed has one of the most awesome logos in all the blogosphere. Lucky for us (me), he slapped the logo on a sweet T-shirt.
This is the equipment used for the Power Course. The plates are 22lb, 11lb, 5lb and 2lb. That’s right baby! This FatMan is curling 80lbs!
btw… the lady behind me is mortified that she is getting her picture taken.

That’s the great thing about having a boy–at some point they look up to you and think you’re pretty cool. Nice job on the workout.

Awesome!
Wish I were up to a class on my feet for an hour, but not quite yet.
