Loosing Weight…It’s Vacation!

Saturday, August 16th, 2008
I just got done doing 2 weeks of keto while still taking my free windows, so it was strict about 90% of the time with very low carbs that were high GI (about 60g of carbs/day), I had plenty of Quinoa (love that stuff) and I didn’t count the low GI carbs. 

So, the results are that I lost 3% body fat (3lbs in weight but 9lbs in actual fat going from 17% to 13%).  THIS IS FANTASTIC.  Now you are probably saying I could of lost more, but, remember, this was me doing a nearly strict Keto for two reasons.  One because I wanted to try it out as I have never done that before, and two, I wanted to make sure I can handle the qty of protein before doing this at the same time as lifting weights.

During this two weeks I did 30 min HIIT rowing 3x/week and did dips on my new Power Rack.  I have a really good rower so it can take the beating.  So, what about vacation?  We head back to Cannon Beach OR tomorrow for 1 week.  If you look at the pic on my BB in the upper left (with the orange shirt) I will be taking another pic in the same location and post it in about a week.  I also took some progress pics today and will post those as well.

And one last good note, I gained about .25 of an inch on my arms and lost over an inch on my waist.

OK, one more thing, I haven’t weighed this weight for over 10 years when I was in the USAF.  I’m going to do HIIT running on the beach every morning and eating a reasonable amount of carbs, protein and fat during the vacation…just mindfull eating, no counting calories.

Lost 2lbs and Preping for Max-OT

Sunday, August 10th, 2008

I lost 2lbs this last week and I’m feeling great.  I really watched what I ate and when I ate it.  I still managed to get in my two free windows as well as a free day.  It truly is amazing the progress that can be made just by changing your diet around some, and I dont even feel like I’m on a diet.

The Power Rack sits in front of me taunting me every day.  I decided to pin down my first 12 weeks.  I’m ging to go with Max-OT.  I am so looking forward to doing this 5 days per week, if you only could see my excitment.  However, I need to find a 100% free weight version of it since I dont have machines at my house, any ideas?

PowerTec Rack Installed (photos included)

Monday, August 4th, 2008

I must say, building this rack from PowerTec was so dam easy. It’s a good thing since they completly mislabled the numbers on the plastic bags for each post and bar, funny really! Every nut and bolt was the same size, no messing around trying to match things up. Also, sturdy as a brick house. I love it!

I just got my weights today, bought them used at 50cents/pound. They arent olympic but no worries since the price was right. Also have a stand for the weights. From the 4 install steps below you can see how quickly this comes together. You can also see what my wife did with the bolts when I was in the garage sorting out the parts. I got this from this site as well as 10% off and free straps (asked for in the comments section) and a free tshirt included with the purchase price. And to top it all off, free shipping! $314 total.

And then, the next step was absolute hell. Putting together a Body Solid bench was a nightmare. This thing had four seperate containers of different sized washers, nuts, bolts etc. The cusions did not go on well at all and I had to fight to get them on in the end. And all together it was very confusing. However, it is very strudy and comfortable and looks fabulous!

This was $228 from BigFitness.com and shipping was free (no tax).
