Straight from the Oval Office

i think i may have overdone it today!! finally  went to the track that i found that is open to the public.  i was just like a kid in a candy store.  to begin with, i did my warm-up laps on the track.  then i did my sprints with the parachute.  then on to stadiums and squat jumps.  not to mention that on my way home, i saw a lont of guys playing b-ball at the court and i couldn’t help but stop.  so after playing a few games there, i was able to crawl to the car and drive home.  only to eat with the wife before heading out to the mall.  now i’m totally drained!!!!! but i wouldn’t have it any other way.  and this is what you call a day off??? SURE IS. . .best part is that i get to do more tomorrow and tuesday!!!! i love "holidays"

I’m finally ALMOST where i want to be.  My body is starting to change, my eating habits are clean & healthy, AND everything else around me is pulling me in opposite directions.  Wouldn’t you know it. . .just when we think we have things going how we want them to go, here comes that nasty curveball.  You know exactly what I mean!! The new position at work is great. The soon to be new addition is very exciting. And more business means more MONEY. . .but i just want my workout time so that I can reach my goals.  I know that in the grand scheme of things, life couldn’t be better. work, family, and friends are all doing fine.  is it too much to ask, for a few uninterrupted moments to do a push-up, crunch, or get a jog in? I know I’m just being petty.  I’m too close to having the body that I want to give up now!!! guess today’s trouble will just have to be tomorrow’s testimony!!!

about to head to the b-ball court and hopefully i’ll find a vitcim to put on my poster!!!!  hahahaha….in the event that i’m on the receiving end, don’t worry……………… you guys will NEVER hear about it!

After looking for over 5 months, i’ve finally found a track & a stadium that has just open to the public that has lights!!! really, i’m sooooooo excited!!! b/c of my work schedule, i either have to workout before the sun comes up or after it goes down.  So i’ve had to sort of limit my workout b/c (as some of you know) i’m not working out at the gym any more and have to get in what i can when i can.  the lifting hasn’t been the problem. and i’m actually doing pretty good on my cardio as well. but there’s absolutely nothing like stadiums, sprints, cone drills, and the parachute to really blast the lower body.  and as an added bonus, one of the guys at the track has a flag football team that is looking for new members to play in the upcoming flag season.  it all depends on how things progress with the pregnancy of course!!! but at least i know that i’m gonna get a real good total body workout in on wednesday night. . .i’m gonna be on cloud nine until then, and in the pits of hell afterwards.

PS–> if you’re not nervous about your workout before you start, maybe it’s really not even worth starting!!! Go HARD or go HOME!!!!

just so you know, you’re a piece of shit. . .and damn anybody on this site that has a problem with me saying that. . .u’re a spineless coward!!!!

didn’t know that i would have to damn near become a circus act.  i’m talking about balancing work, wife, soon to be son, school, and still have ME TIME. Feeling like a juggling clown walking a tightrope over a den of lions. not complaining, just saying that I don’t think any of us understand what we are capable of handling until we have to!!!

My workouts have been going kind of slow lately.  Can’t really complain though.  The reason is that instead of going on my usual morning runs or hitting the weights hard after work, i’ve been walking and doing light weights with my wife.  We don’t walk far or fast, but it means a lot to her (& me) that she still wants to be in the bet shape possible when the baby comes.  Besides, i may not be about to push myself to the limits that I want right now, but I understand that a few changes in my diet can compensate for the lack of intensity in my workouts.  Posting new progress pics tomorrow. . .maybe i’m not delusional when i say that I think I’m still looking pretty good
