Funny thing, the name was given to me in 2007. The Machete movie came out in 2010, but now I'm associated with it. (Though to be fair the fake trailer in Planet Terror came out in 2007 as well.) However, as I mentioned in another thread the name was [ironically] given to me from a '90s cult classic erotic movie from the Philippines about a statue coming to life. 2 Quote Valar Morghulis Halfling Monk, Chaotic Neutral Machete's Blog: Inside A Mad Mind Third World Warrior: The Eight-Year Training Log Link to comment

Machete Posted January 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Got nothing accomplished today. Long day at work. Had to cover for the morning coach and led 6 classes. On top of that corporate was auditing our branch, so I had to be a bit extra. Missed my session quota, which I probably won't make this month. I'm constantly failing Charisma checks and having trouble getting members to book sessions they already paid for. #AwkwardPeopleProblems 1 Quote Valar Morghulis Halfling Monk, Chaotic Neutral Machete's Blog: Inside A Mad Mind Third World Warrior: The Eight-Year Training Log Link to comment

As for your members, do what I do to encourage people to exercise. Ask them if they dusted the couch w/ their azz today. Well, maybe thats not the best approach for paying customers. I think thats why I became an engineer. I sold real estate for 3yrs. Decided I never wanted another job in my life working w/ the public. Quote Current Challenge We are what we repeatedly do.

Machete Posted January 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 SFG week, and the wife starts her new job. Secured lodging and transportation. Individual skills practiced.

Funny, we had a synchronized Swing session in a big circle at the very end. To my left and right were those two huge bearded guys swinging 32kg, while I got stuck with the 48kg. It was a funny sight. I hope somebody took pictures. 5 Quote Valar Morghulis Halfling Monk, Chaotic Neutral Machete's Blog: Inside A Mad Mind Third World Warrior: The Eight-Year Training Log Link to comment

peelout Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 WTH? No post since Tuesday? Machete is a name you have to live up to. If not, then pick a name like peelout so no one knows what the heck it even means. That's me being supportive. 1 Quote Current Challenge We are what we repeatedly do.
