Well I made it, day 30, yaaaaaaaaay. Not much sleep again last night and an early morning today. Was pretty whooped at work all day and trying to tie up all the loose strings today since I am on vacation next week. Thanks to a scoop of no-xplode I was able to get 20 minutes of hill running in at the...

Remember that two hour nap I took last night? Well it did mess up my sleep last night and so today was a struggle to get through work. Thankfully a B – complex and a scoop of no-xplode before my workout woke me up and energized me for a couple hours to get through the workout. Now I am crashing...

I used to really enjoy Monday’s when they were a day off from working out but now it’s an hour in the dojang. Tonight’s class wasn’t too bad early warm-ups were adequate, I guess. Did get some partner work to review some kick counters and self-defenses. I got to work with an old...

I slept in today until about 8am getting over 8 hours of sleep for a change and did it feel good. That all meant I didn’t get to the gym and working out until about 11ish. I started with high intensity elliptical for about 3 1/2 miles in 25 minutes then after sufficiently warming up, for a change,...

Today is a scheduled day off but I just rejoined my karate club so guess what, it’s another night in the dojang and day 5 straight of working out. That is definitely creeping into over training and that would very much explain my fatigue right now. Tomorrow is supposed to be a lifting night but...

Wow day 20 already seems like I just started this program 3 weeks ago, LOL. Coming into the homes stretch and what a way to take it up a notch then to start back into the martial arts. Tonight was my first night back in the Korean Art of Tang Soo Do. Got too caught up catching up with old friends that...

It’s Sunday eve and after 90 minutes of family guy I am gonna start watching a movie while pushing this post out. Today was a cardio day and since my knee is still hurting, but getting better, I stayed away from intervals and substituted with 40 minutes on the elliptical. Kept the heart rate between...

Go Hawks and Roll Tide!! Well the Hawks lost and the perfect season is no more, it was one hell of a historic run and now I cry black and gold while singing the Iowa fight song. They just ran out of time today,hopefully next week goes better for them. Alabama is at half time and they are not looking...

Today is the half way point in the program and the scale said 239.6 this morning, not too bad. I was also fasting for blood work this morning. Don’t know my results yet and I think they are only doing lipids and blood sugar, hopefully they at least do an A1C, the long term measurement for blood...

Now to pay the price of a few extra pounds of water bloat after last night. Will hit the green tea today to help flush it all out, will take a day pr two but that’s OK. How’s everybody’s fantasy football teams doing today, so far I’m 2-2 today not too bad. Today is/was a cardio...
