Dropped in on Gold’s Gym in Santa Monica yesterday. It’s not the same place as “Arnold” and others worked out at in the 70’s. More like the place I go to in Zionsville.
But my truck did got a lot of attention. Guess you don't see a black Ford F350 diesel "dually" that often in LA.
Not long after I started working out for sports, my mom worried about me getting hurt or doing steroids or whatever. So I thought watching “Pumping Iron” might be a good way for her to see how bodybuilders actually train. And a couple had played pro football before. So one afternoon I watched it with her on DVD. She knew I liked Arnold from his movies and had a Terminator poster in my room. All went well until we got to the part where he talks about “
coming.”
My mom said nothing. I didn’t say anything either but it was all I could do to keep from giggling. At least she never stopped me from lifting after that.
The last picture. This scene is from Pumping Iron. Hell if I had three girls hanging on to me like that when I worked out (especially the one sitting on his shoulders
), I’d be “coming” all the time too.
It’s good to be Ah-nold!
