I want to wish all the Body Space Family a safe & Happy New Year! 2008 was a good year for me and I hope others feel the same. Today I finished the year off with a great chest workout. I made quite a bit of progress and look forward to working hard and accomplishing even more in 2009. Thanks to all for sharing and being motivational on this great site. Will see you all next year. Take care & stay strong!

Routine Adjustment

Muscle-Seeker — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 00:25:35 +0000

I am adjusting my workout routine. My plan is to increase workout intensity and stay in the 60 to 75 minute time frame (time spent in the gym). I will use a four day split working: chest/day 1, arms/day 2, back/day 3 & legs/day 4. The plan is to work in abs/core work every session and to do 15 to 20 minutes of low impact cardio to complete leg days. Hopefully this change will stimulate new muscle gains.

Welcomed Change Of Scenery!

Today I worked out at the gym on Seymour Johnson Air Force Base (North Carolina). They have a great facility, with plenty of equipment to work your entire body. I was impressed with the set up and quality of equipment. My son and daughter-in-law are stationed at this base.

The N. Carolina weather is great compared to the heat in Texas. The base is beautiful, green and plenty of trees. I had a great workout that started and ended with the walk to and from the gym. It’s about 2.5 miles and I enjoyed every minute of the walk both ways. I posted my workout under the BB.com workout tracker on my body space. The workout tracker has been a great tool for me to track my routines and progress. The change of scenery and facility were welcomed, but “there’s no place like home”. I will be back at 24 HR Fitness in Texas Friday. Well that’s all for now. Focused & committed to living fit!

Thanks BB.com Members

Sacrifice/Freedom

Today we celebrate freedom & independence in the United States of America. I am thankful for the liberties I enjoy. I want to thank members of the military (past & present) and their families for the sacrifices they make to insure our freedom. May you be blessed with good health, love, joy & prosperity in your lives!

Hello July

Well June 2008 is in the past. It was a good month for me with regards to training. I see subtle results of my commitment and labor. I will continue to work hard and make adjustments necessary to reach my goals. My latest adjustments were to my diet, hoping to provided nutrition to increase lean muscle mass and reduce my body fat. I’m looking forward to working harder in July, because I enjoy training and seeing the changes to my physique. Best wishes to all in attaining desired goals. Stay fit and be strong…………..

On Track

Happy Father’s Day!

I had a great week. I made a few adjustments to my diet 7 days ago. I also added 30 minutes of moderate cardio at the end of each resistance workout. I’m feeling great and I’ve received quite a few positive comments on my physique. I appreciate the comments, but I’m still no where near my goals yet. The comments do let me know I’m headed in the right direction and that fuels my fire. I’m committed to drive my body fat percentage down and lean muscle mass up. It’s down to dedication, consistency and diet at this point in my training. Well that’s all for now. Best wishes to all my fitness comrades here at BB.com.

Change is Good

This has been a good week. I’m feeling real good after adjusting my diet and exercise program. I think I will see visible results real soon. I added 30 minutes of cardio to the end of each resistance workout. I also moved to a two on one off, two on two off routine. That day off in the middle truly makes a difference in my recovery and strength. Commitment, work, diet and rest will produce desired results.

Time for Adjustments

Muscle-Seeker — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 23:32:13 +0000

Workouts have been going great. I guess I have work to do on my diet and cardio. I’m not happy with my percentage of body fat (27%). I moved from 25% to 23% and now I’m at 27% with a goal of 15%. I weigh 210 lbs with a goal of 200 lbs. This just tells me I need to make adjustments and work harder. Nobody said transition would be easy. I’ve already started to adjust my workouts to include 20 minutes of cardio after my resistance training. I hope to keep my workouts around 90 minutes per session. I will being working on my diet. Well that’s all for now. The plan has been stated, now it’s time to execute.
