YEOUCH! I am actually really liking the “fit it in after work” plan. It is working well. And with Wednesday’s out with Mike, I even have time to hit the steam room before dinner! YAY. But WOW is the new plan with the new set of split workouts harder on the bod. In a good way. When I was doing it in the morning I was at best making it every other day, so I didn’t worry too much about which exercises I was doing when, i would just do about 1/2-1/3 of the stuff on my list. Knowing that [...]

Here is some stuff I read that I thought was interesting: June 7th – The Force is Strong with The Muppets at Disney Parks – Two great tastes in one! June 7th – “I’m proposing to make my school a prison” – How sad is that … June 7th – A possible link between pollution and crime—and marshmallows – I wonder if this might be related to the world-wide “epidemic” of increasing average weight among people and animals. June 7th – Terror in Arizona: Just another ‘isolated incident’? Funny how that list keeps mounting – Makes me think of that [...]

So I know I missed at least one exercise report – BUT I have missed a WHOLE LOT more exercise. Between some traveling, family parties, too much social life and a huge pile of work it has been tough to find time to work out at the club OR at home. But we finally caught a weekend worth of break, and I made it back to the club this morning. Happily I found that I didn’t lose much progress on the weights, not needing to backtrack at all and even advancing some weight wise. Still feel like I don’t quite [...]

Oy! And I meant to post so often! blahblahblah … Enough with the kvetching already … on to the update. So far pretty good with maintaining regularity – in the sense that we are mostly keeping to the schedule of getting to the club 3-4 days per week. I originally started with a ton of classes, yoga, pilates etc. but my schedule got so crazy that I started missing classes and I was getting pouty so hopefully in a few weeks when life slows down again I’ll start making it back to the pilates class. I have added swimming in, [...]

Plans blahblahblah, Goals blahblahblah Yeah. I have talked about how I am taking a fairly casual approach to my “goals” or what I might consider success. But while casual is good. I do think some metrics to help one evaluate progress wouldn’t suck. Clothing size is totally untenable – it is WAY to variable brand to brand, store to store etc. Although – “how do I fit in my clothes” isn’t a terrible metric. Weight – actual numerical values have previously mentioned neurotic issues. Pain – ya know if you work hard enough - you’ll feel it. Uhm .. yeah, no… Not [...]
