Just as I predicted…

Friday, August 31st, 2007

at like total crap yesterday.  Had a good breakfast at home, grabbed a coffee on the way to meet up with my co-workers and travelled for 3 hours.  Once in Madison, Wisconsin, we started our meetings (ugh). They wanted to do a working lunch which is fine.  The menu was from Noodles.  However there was […]

Progress…

Wednesday, August 29th, 2007

sort of.  The scale this morning tells me that this weekend all you can eat junk food festival at the water park did nothing to get me to ripped abz!  I gained almost a pound.  Yeah I know that one shouldn’t really pay attention to scales because I am more concerned about losing fat, but […]

Sun burnt and working out

Monday, August 27th, 2007

We went to the water park yesterday.  It was the first time we’d been to the water park this year.  And despite looking like a white beached whale I took of my shirt…I’m now paying for it.  My shoulders are the color of the fruit punch (crystal light) that I’m drinking right now.  I’ve been […]

Reading EliteFTS doesn’t make you smart

Friday, August 24th, 2007

So there I was upstairs at the gym doing my workout and I hear a voice downstairs mention powerlifting and strongman. So I start to listen to the conversation. It’s not to much longer before one of the guys is talking about one of the powerlifting gals (Kara perhaps or someone else) . […]

Drowning in sweat!

Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007

Another bodyweight workout in the books. By the time that I was done with the bodyweight part, I had worked up a pretty good sweat. Other than chin-ups, supposed to be 10 (did 5) none of the exercises are mega difficult. What is difficult is to keep going with little breaks and […]

Turbulence Training Bodyweight

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007

I dug up one of the old programs I got awhile ago since I’m still a bit undecided on what I want to do.  I think for the time being I’m not really going to worry about what I do and just go where I feel like going and enjoy it.  That may hinder my […]

Home Gym time

Saturday, August 18th, 2007

One of the things I am still burnt out on is going to a gym where there are nothing but bicep curlers.  So today I stayed at home and made my own workout.  Probably not the best thing, but I enjoyed it, I didn’t have to listen to 70’s music (cliche I know, but Rage […]

Both feet in!

Thursday, August 16th, 2007

Well I made it into the gym today.  I’m going to pay for it.  I did a pseudo crossfit workout and some other cardio stuff.
6 rounds of 10 push-ups followed by 15 bodyweight squats.  I did this in 5:30.  It was supposed to be for 20 minutes and include 5 pull-ups but there was no […]

I intended to go to the gym…

Wednesday, August 15th, 2007

But I didn’t make it.  I got sidetracked!
I’m still not 100% sure what I am going to do.  For the time being I think I am going to do some bodyweight stuff, which I’ll probably get bored with in about 3 sessions of that, and then from there I’ll go back to the weights of […]

No Posts means…

No workouts!
Monday I did the bench workout as I normally do.  It went fine.
Tuesday I made it to the gym, but there was just no energy, but I told myself I could work my way through it.  On the 3rd set (5 @ 215) I thought things were harder than they should have been considering […]
