Back to it – Day 25

Back to it – Day 25
Scale this morning was 236.8, that’s a good thing and I got my pound for the week. Surprised the sh!t out of me. Today I am back to the gym for the first time since Tuesday night. Pretty good workout today, didn’t lose any strength being out that long but I did struggle with a few. I mentioned...

T minus 9 – Day 21
Can you believe only 9 days left? These 3 weeks have just flown by and before you know it my daily words of wisdom (LOL) will cease. Tonight I’ve had one of the worst workout’s while on this program. My muscles and joints are still in shock from last night’s class and fatigue is an...

Another Day Another Workout – Day 16

Sometimes pain is NOT good – Day 8

Sometimes pain is NOT good – Day 8
As I mentioned yesterday or the day before my back was a bit tender from deadlifts. Well tonight it’s not the greatest and it was sore enough during my workout to make me not complete the entire workout. I did everything except the deadlifts tonight. Even using a belt it was too tender. Thankfully...

Cold, Wet, and Sweaty – Day 3

Getting ready for Get the Lead Out 5K The title pretty much describes my day. Cold and wet means it is in the mid to low 40’s and raining all day, just and absolutely miserable day out. Couldn’t even get my lunch walk in, I hate it when that happens. Sweaty, that’s what tonight’s...
