Day 1 – I survived!

Monday, August 21st, 2006

This morning I wasn’t sure how things were going to go. I was a little bit tired but I thought it would wear off. It didn’t. Probably the 2 hour meeting about nothing that caused me to be groggy…but that’s a different story. So any how I went into the gym not […]

Quality over Quantity…or just insanity?

Wednesday, July 26th, 2006

The name of the workout that I did this week (and last week) is called Quality over Quantity. Before the workouts I think it’s just insane that I’m going to be doing them. I actually get a little bit nervous before doing them. Fear of failure I believe, but today for sure I […]

Lets talk calories

Thursday, July 20th, 2006

On my last post I mentioned how hungry I was at dinner time (and even this morning as well…which is something that I can’t recall ever happening), which got me thinking about nutrition and calories. I’d have to say that nutrition is my weakest point in my quest for fitness. I suspect that […]

Super Sized Thoughts

Thursday, May 18th, 2006

On Tuesday our latest Netflix movie arrived and it was none other than Super Size Me. I’m sure many of you have heard about it, but if not I’ll try and give you the 1 minute summary. It’s basically about a perfectly healthy American guy, healthy according to all the doctors he saw […]

Yummy Oatmeal Pancakes!

Wednesday, March 15th, 2006

Lately I’ve been eating a lot of eggs. 6 or 7 days a week I’ve been eating eggs because it’s a great source of protein (with some sort of veggie’s or as an omlette etc). However after awhile I was getting tired of them which meant I needed to find something else to […]

Day 19 and 20

Saturday, February 25th, 2006

I’m a couple of days behind on this, so here we go. Nothing to exciting.
Day 19
Warm-ups
Squats - 8×3@140
First time back squatting with my chucks. AWESOME. I was hitting depth, powering up out of the bottom. I almost fell over once because I don’t think I was used to being […]

Workout 1-25-06

Thursday, January 26th, 2006

This was my last workout for the week.  I did workouts on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.  If I go to the gym at all the rest of this week it will be for some sort of cardio, but I will probably pass on it (if I can).
Yesterday’s workout consisted of rowing for 10 minutes (2000 […]

Vitamin B12

Tuesday, August 2nd, 2005

I found an interesting post at Jesse’s site about Vitamin B12 and how it boosts energy and other things. Very interesting read given that we are hearing about all of the steroid use (Palmerio incident is big in the US right now; was listening to the radio and they said it might have been […]
