Tommy John Long Sleeve Undershirt – FTW!

I finally did it. I won something from iwearyourshirt.com … finally. Everyone knows I’m a fangirl (even Jason’s mom, which is weird enough), so I have attempted to win things before. I gotta say, super stoked that I held out.

I won a shirt from Tommy John. There was some controversy surrounding my win, as Tommy John shirts are for dudes, and I’m not a dude. Mr. John (if that’s his name — I have no idea) set out to solve a specific problem which is, from what I hear, the way to be successful in business. The problem, however, was one that did not affect me (or most chicks) AT ALL. Apparently, boys wear “undershirts” to, like, not show “nippage” or sweat or something, and apparently said undershirts have a nasty habit of not only being not so comfy, but also riding up and generally not performing well. I likened it to a really il-fitted bra. So off to problem solving he went, and he came up with this amazing super stretchy shirt that is about as soft as humanly possible and it does this one awesome thing…

You know those commercials for tempurpedic mattresses where you put a glass of cheap red wine on one corner of the bed, and that chick and her lover jump on the other end of the bed in a weird pre-mating ritual, but the glass of red wine doesn’t move or spill or get drunk? (Artistic license utilized.) Well, it’s like that. Sorta.

When you pull on one corner of the shirt in a sheepishly girly kinda way, the rest of the shirt doesn’t move. It’s like a party trick! When you’re the only one at the party, and the trick is you’re wearing a shirt.

Anyway, this shirt I got is the outwear longsleeve shirt in black (so slimming). I love it lots. I wear it after the gym and around the house. In the winter I’ll more than likely sleep in it… every night.

So I guess I just wanted to thank Jason over at www.iwearyourshirt.com (@iwearyourshirt) for the win-assist, and Tommy John for the shirt. I love it.

But I love your website more because it is about as NSFW as possible while still being SFW (mannequin porn!).

81 Pushup (in 5 minute) Challenge – WIN!

Week 2, Day 3 proved to be the last day of my hundred pushup challenge. I had started to feel a twinge in my back around Pushup 60 of my 81 that day, and by 81 of 81 I was in full on pain.

I gave it a good go. I am in PT now working on my OTHER back issue (5 years of sciatica and counting), and I have been assured that by building my core strength,  I’ll help both issues at once.

I don’t want to say I’ve failed, nor have I given up. But my pushup days are over for now. 81 big-girl pushups in 5 minutes. I can officially say that Jason Sadler (@iwearyourshirt) dominated me at pushups.

Sorry for the disappointment. Bring on the next challenge. I’m ready.
