This post is 2 days late because I forgot to write it. Been busy in the mornings with other crap. This metcon was just a 2 mile run with a vest. It's the longest I've done so far, and I survived! That's about all I can say about it.
I am far and away better at spending money on stuff to make new and different sounds than I am at actually playing the guitar. FAR AND AWAY. Case in point: for the longest time I had an amp so loud it could blow women's clothes off, and because of its vacuum tube design it didn't really sound its best at a volume I could stand to be in the room with. I actually spent significantly MORE MONEY trying to put the volume on a leash while simultaneously keeping it cranked for the best sound. Ridiculous. That amp is a mesa roadster. Originally I bought it for the dirty tons as it turns out that most of my favorite guitarists use a mesa rectifier amp. This roadster is like the swiss army knife version of a rectifier. One of the biggest differences is that roadster sounds really good clean. Mesa lifted the clean from their lonestar line of amps for this particular amp In fact, as far as I'm concerned, it's the best clean. However, this amp is just too fucking loud.
Best laid plans of mice and men and all that, Metcon Monday is going to have to become metcon tuesday. I was finally able to connect with my new olympic lifting coach, and he's writing my programming for me for monday wednesday and friday. In addition to being in his gym saturday and sunday for technique work, I'm left with 1 day a week to program for myself. So, stay tuned for tomorrow when we resume posting workouts.
