Training Day Two Hundred Twenty Seven

Today was slightly better than yesterday. I spent most of the Tuesday morning arguing with the company who has subjected my girlfriend to fraud. Basically, what they do is that they give you an offer where you receive a gift and don't have to make any commitments. You simply have to pay for the shipping cost. Once you receive a package, they state that you have automatically agreed upon a subscription where you need to buy one regular package. Apparently you can cancel this subscription, but, they've made sure that the website address where you cancel it doesn't work. Adding to that, they give you a ridiculous short period to say no to the subscription (package received on Friday and by Monday it's too late to cancel according to them... oh, and you can't phone them on weekends and cancel it). This is just the beginning of all the dirty tricks they pull and if you want to read about a guy who has thoroughly documented their fraudulent ways, click here (in Swedish). Luckily I've got in touch with at least 3 others who have been fooled and I've been in contact with the police, various consumer agencies as well as personal friends who are well-familiar with the legal system. My girlfriend has not agreed to any subscription and we won't pay for any more packages. In any case, here's what was in store for today's training session!

# MORNING WALK TIME: 40+ MINUTES


# Workout Notes:
Morning walk time was recoded but I forgot to stop the timer once I got home. Hence, I have no idea what the actual time was. But, I know from experience that it's always above 40 minutes (I'm always walking the same route). In any case, today's workout introduced some new thoughts. Basically, I'm adding the front delts to the workout yet again, which means I'm removing the Incline Bench Press exercise from the future chest workouts. Instead I'll be using the new Chest Press Machine we got at the gym. This means that the delt workout now has 6 sets for each portion of the delt - front, lateral and rear. There is, however, no news on the calves front.
