The perfect excuse?

So, our entire crew was doing PT togehter today, like we do every shift. The guy that organizes it tells us that after finishing with the weights, we have abs to do. I inform him that I don't think I am going to do abs today, and when asked why not, I let him know that I actually have a really good reason. Here's what I told him:

"All of this exercise has created an oxygen debt within my skeletal muscles. It is a large enough debt, that I am now hypoxic. Because I am hypoxic, my Krebs cycle is no longer functioning properly. Therefore, I am not genterating enough ATP. Since I am not genterating enough ATP, I just don't have the energy to do any further exercises."

Ok, so I probably have some flaws in my thinking, and I am still trying to sort out this whole Krebs cycle thing after our lecture today, but if you didn't have a clue what I was talking about, despite any inaccurate statements on my part, it does sound pretty good, right?

I am really glad I have the next couple days off before going back to class....

How about, "I'd just like to sit this one out, thank you."

Jocks have no sympathy for people who hide behind Kreb's Cycles, Cars or other Vehicles to avoid "No pain, no gain."

It wasn't that I really wasn't going to do it, I was just giving him a hard time. We all harrass him during PT, so he is used to it. It's just that I had a "new" excuse for today that I wanted to try out. ;)

When getting in trouble for slow response time...
"My pager is not working right."
Make sure you throw it on the cement a couple of times.
