Yes, We Can!
I was reading an article on President Obama’s fitness program. It seems he works out early morning, six days a week for 45 minutes or so, alternating weights and cardio. I think he looks great. I am rethinking the kind of body I want to achieve, and President Obama and former President Bush are a heavy dose of inspiration. So, I am now aiming for "presidential fitness" which I am defining as more of a lean, athletic physique rather than a bulky muscular look. Less "Marine Corps sergeant" and more "leader of the free world." Less Roman centurion and more commander of the legion. I think the new look will be more achievable in light of my work and family obligations. And, I might finally look good in a nice suit!

Nice post. Very thought provoking. I’m also trying to decide where I want to go from here. Best of luck with your goals.

Welcome to my humble bodygroup, sir! One reason that I’m less concerned with joining a gym is that I am achieving a trim athletic body. I am muscular, but not bodybuilding big. Interestingly enough, we saw how fast President Bush is when he ducked the shoe. I don’t know how true it is, but I read he runs a near 5 minute mile.
