[astroglide]

i picked up a trainer with a gift cert from amazon. i can close it with some effort, which isn't bad for a guy that has never worked out.

closing it isn't the toughest part, though - it's closing it without ripping all of the [censored] skin off my fingers. the "bumped pointy metal" handles on this thing honestly makes it feel like a cheese grater. are calluses a necessity to get real with these things?
