FREMANTLE is confident it will have 95 per cent of its list in full training following the Christmas break, with the club determined to avoid a repeat of the injury crisis that derailed its 2011 season

Do we know if Michie is back in or close to training?

Waste of money.

Haha, took me a while but I got it.

I'm glad someone did

All gyms are.

 

[estibador]

All gyms are.

All jokes aside, this is true - for the price of 2 or 3 years of gym memberships you can kit out your home gym with everything you need to last you a lifetime.

The only drawback is unless you live in the playboy mansion you miss out on all the cardio bunnies to perve on between sets.

 

[Seppo]

You got a door, you got a gym.

Tower 200 - global shop direct.

I'd rather the local gym myself, more distractions.

 

[Nickos66]

You got a door, you got a gym.

HAHAHAHA!!

That was our office catchphrase for like the whole of 2010.

Having both home gymed and gym gymed I can say I find it a hell of a lot easier to gym at a gym as opposed to a home gym. Usually at home I'd start a workout, do a few sets and go watch TV because TV is great. At the gym it was easier to get the motivation because everyone else was gymming and such, so that atmosphere created was of great aid to my gymming. Each to their own I suppose, but I didn't mind spending the money on the membership, especially since classes were included.

I prefer the gym gym for results...nothing like a hot gym bunny to bring out your personal best.

Saw him on Monday at the session. He reckons he should be back early in the new year.

It is a tough injury to recover from. Just ask Matt Egan and Tom Williams. I think it took Hirdy out for over 12 months as well.

 

[Nickos66]

Croad was foreced to retire from it.

 

[Lach72]

Croad was foreced to retire from it.

Yeah, but he played injured in the GF and then snapped it good and proper

 

[apuchar]

Yes i was under the impression he came back early from the injury to play in the grand final. He wanted to risk it.

Thanks for that JunglistPosse. Sounds a little more promising.

I've tried nearly all ways to do gym work, & the only way which works for me as I have not much discipline is to have a 100% training partner. If I didn't want to go to the gym, I would feel obliged to do so as I knew my mate was waiting for me. Getting there was the problem. Once I was there it was fine. And when I got there my mate often told me that he was only there because he didn't want to let me down. Then we would train flat out.
We used to train 6 days a week, back in the day & it was full on.
Loved it 2. Miss it, but life has changed.
Loving my time with my wife & son even more.

I just get stoned and hit the weights ala Kevin Spacey in "American Beauty". Seems to work.

If Chuck Norris is so tough, he would hear me saying I reckon he's soft and come to round to my house and smash my face against the keybojikrsglmdklo.:8?:5789!$@&%{[
