It was a late night at work. I only have a couple of those a year. It’s not the work that gets me at the end of
the day instead it’s the traffic.
Atlanta traffic is, to put it bluntly, BRUTAL. As I have mentioned in the past I try to
leave at 4PM to miss what I had to drive through this evening. Accidents, stalls, fires, you name it and I
have seen it on my commute to and from work.
I left work at 6PM and rush hour was still going full
speed. It took me 10 minutes just to get
to the interstate. Once there it a fight
with other cars, trucks, 18 wheelers, you name it. What a turn signal means to me: I am about to
change lanes. What a turn signal means
to everyone else on the highway: speed up and cut that car off before it can
change lanes.
Needless to say that by the time I finally got home the
sun was setting and it was getting too dark to jog outside. I toyed with going to the gym but the thought
of getting back in the car and battling traffic there and back was just too
much to even consider.
I have a full set of weights in my garage, as you know. I
went heavy and did a full body workout.
I hit all major muscle groups for the upper body. Shoulders, triceps, back, chest, and
biceps. My muscles were screaming at me
for the last few sets.
I did three 10 rep sets increasing the weight as I
went. I know I am going to feel this
tomorrow but it felt good to push some plates.
I should have written down all my weight, I think by the end I had
pushed six to seven thousand pounds total.
It sure helped in burning off my traffic frustration and
relieve some stress. I feel sorry for the people that have to deal with rush
hour daily. It’s bad enough when I get
stuck having to drive in it. If I had to
do it normally we would be moving.
