When we do fitness testing in our gym, we have the participant touch their chin to our fist, held vertically so the little finger's on the floor and their chin touches our thumb - that's about 4" off the floor. But maybe one of the PTs will weigh in on this?

Okey-dokey, a good reason for large boobs and doing PUs bra-less!

Spreadsheets and especially graphs take the fun right out from under me.

Just remind me what week we're in.

**SadieKate** · 09-03-2008, 08:15 AM

No graphs. That's beyond me.

Aw, graphs are nice if they are pretty colors.

Or maybe pie charts. Made from real pie.

**OakLeaf** · 09-03-2008, 09:50 AM

Mmmmmmm, pie.

**jobob** · 09-03-2008, 09:54 AM

someone say pie?

**NoNo** · 09-03-2008, 09:59 AM

There's chocolate lemon pie waiting for me at home. Drooooooooooooool

**SouthernBelle** · 09-03-2008, 10:02 AM

Isn't it odd how the words pie, or cake, or ice cream set off a spate of posts?

**Becky** · 09-03-2008, 10:11 AM

I <3 pie

**Grog** · 09-03-2008, 11:25 AM

Wow, I'm not doing my "Day 2" today. My pectoral muscles are still very sore. I managed to do five but that was pretty painful.

As per the doctor (my sweet husband)'s recommendation, I will wait until tomorrow to do the whole set, which is supposed to be something crazy like 9+7+6+5+min7 = min 34

So day 2 will be Thursday and day 3 most likely Saturday.

I am pretty sore, but I'll give it a shot again tomorrow. Today I need a pec massage
