To the gym we go

Hit the gym today for the first time. I think my strength is down a litte bit but that may be because of the conversion from kilograms to pounds. Instead of using 20kg plates I now use 45 pound plates, which translates to 20.4kg. I was hoping for some good music but as I entered the weights room I was greeted by blaring speakers playing Kylie Minogue's "Locomotion". There must be some peer reviewed study out there that proves that listening to that song at any appreciable decibel level results in a testosterone and strength drop of at least 2%. Anyway what on Earth were they thinking when they put up this sign?

Staff assistance available?!? I wonder how much they are paying their staff... I get paid $17 an hour selling clothes to the musty-old and dripping-with-gold Jewish-South-African rich and pompous wives of eastern-suburbs billionairs and it is not a pretty job. I have to see them naked and I am telling you, women over 40 really shuld have their boobs done if they plan to make sales assistants help them do up their dresses, oh, and back cleavage is alive and well in this section of Australian society. But we do not stretch to helping them pee - so I reckon the staff at a Toronto gym must be making at least $20 an hour...
