Did some yoga last night at the gym. I really enjoy it especially that I am horrible when it comes to flexibility. Sadly, the class starts pretty late and after doing my usual cardio and lifting, it gets me home after 8 pm, and that makes for a pretty late dinner.
Apple Fitness has been seeing my face a lot lately. After work it will make another 5 days a week session. And tonight will be the ultimate show of will power. Going to the gym for a legs workout rather than attending the Beer Bash(Free food and Beer/Wine). This may seem like a real test, but to be honest, I haven’t had a sip of beer or any alcohol for at least a month. I honestly can’t remember the last time was.
And I am going big time. Not only is it legs, but I am going to be putting deadlifts back into my exercises. I am pretty fired up for it.
I also got a new digital scale that tracks progress. I didn’t have it when I started, but based on what the physician’s scale at the gym told me, I was probably at 202 pounds. Yesterday the digital scale had me at 192.8. Not bad for 3 weeks considering I am not starving myself, and I am also putting on muscle. The current goal is 180, but it’s also about clothes fitting, and just looking great. After all, I’m Handsome.
WordPress just came out with a new version of their iPhone app so I am testing it out. It’s version 1.2. I will add a picture too of something. Hmm what should I take a picture of?
In addition to some delicious swordfish, last night I ate asparagus. Note just some asparagus, I ate a TON of asparagus. Not only did my pee before bed smell, but my pee at work the next day, that I took moments ago, smelled.
It’s really a magical vegetable.
I’ve now made it two weeks at the gym. 4 days a week for both weeks(maybe five if I go over there now after I finish this blog post.) I am feeling good. All of the expected soreness is there. And fading. It’s such a triumphant feeling when your legs and arms are in so much pain just to walk around, and then you turn a corner, and each stride hurts less and less. Hopefully I can turn another corner from feeling gross, to feeling fit and trim again.
Watched a few movies over the past week or so. Harry Wilson’s war was pretty good. Solid dialogue between Tom Hanks and Phillip Seymour-Hoffman, but the movie faded towards the end. Then I watched the Hulk with Edward Norton. Not bad for “mmm action,” but no where near as good as Iron Man.
I seemed to have screwed up my theme when I just did the wordpress update. Now I have a boring blue header, unlike the one I had before. Hmmmm….I wonder if this is worth working on.
