See, that's the thing about working out, i hate it! It is soooo dull, lifting weights, running on the spot, and benching requires a spotter! I play hockey(goalie) year round (cosom hockey in the summer, ice in the winter, 2 different leagues) and trust me, being a goalie is not easy, requires quick reflexes, strong legs (up and downs with 75lbs of equipment get tiring fast) and real good hand to eye coordination. I have a thin frame, mainly due to the way i 'trained my body', big cumbersome muscles would only slow me down and drain me of precious oxygen. Don't get me wrong, i am strong, i used to bench 115lbs, and 35lbs curls, but that's not what i want my body to be able to do. My problem now is that i am now going to start being an electrician, and lifting heavy rolls of cables and such will be hard on my back, so i pretty much have to bite my pride and start lifting weights, as to prevent agravating previous injuries (aggro rollerblading, jumping 15 stairs and landing on flat ground, falling on my a** a lot., warehouse work: 200lb kitchen table falling and i tried to keep it from falling, big mistake)
any suggestions as to strengthen my back and abs? i should be asking my 'overly addicted to weight training' brother...he was scrawnier than me, and now he's a fridge! but since it's on topic...
