Default Real speed freak?

Well I did something dumb and smart at the same time. I just spent CDN$700 on a Nautilus home gym. It is really nice, very high quality. My wife said I need to start working out and get in better shape.

The dumb part is that it was either the weight or a fully ported TFS intake (remember I'm talking CDN $ here).

I chose the weight set. I figured that without a cam and a decent set of heads, the intake would not do a lot. Now I'll have to wait atleast until next year before thinking about a heads/intake/cam combo .

I don't know, and I a real speed freak, guess not

I gotta admit, $700 is a bit high for a clothes rack, but it's your money. Good luck!!

Take care,

LOL, actually I used to lift a fair bit in University. $700 CDN is only like $450 US. I am a Diabetic so I kinda have to watch the health thing.

Cam, Cam, Cam....

You leave to go back to Canada and you forget EVERYTHING I taught you.....

You buy the intake, then when you come back from your next doctor's appointment you tell the other half that he HIGHLY recommended working out. You worked out the numbers, and over time its MUCH cheaper to buy the weight set than join a gym....

We're gonna have to get you back down to Dallas before Danielle takes the Captain's chair on the USS Cam....

LOL, I know, I know. But without the heads and cam I thought it would be pretty useless. I'll get something soon. I guess I better get my a** back to Dallas, eh?

There is a solution for this, work out tell your all big and stuff, and then beat up people for money. That way it's like an investment. lol Well either way, good luck with the working out... You drive the stang in the winter?

Am I ever SORE today! My arms are sore, my chest is sore, my legs are sore....god I love working out
