On the last day of 2005 Q3, I was scrambling to use up the last 200+ nt. So I picked up a book called "Weight Lifting Body-Building", featured in the photo to the left, from a bookstore. I actually think it's a pretty good book with illustrations of exercises that can be done at home or at the gym, though you probably couldn't tell from its cover.First, they put this picture of a man whose idea of a workout is to slather oil over his body and to wear a gym towel around his waist.
