Slowly, But Surly….
Well, tonight I had a trainer at the base gym show me a HIIT all body workout. The nice compliment I received was that I did 6 sets of HIIT on the workout, wheres he said most ‘big’ bodybuilders can not finish even 4!!! Therefore, I know my cardio conditioning (thanks to HIIT cardio) is paying off quite well.
I wont weigh myself or have my body fat % taken until may 1st. I do hope to weight in at 175, three weeks ago I was 180. My goal is 160 and 10% bf by July 1st!!! On July 1st I will fly from Baghdad to Minnesota for 20 days of vacation, six of which will be on a cruise!! whoo hooo!!! Booo-yah! haha
The best part of being over here is that I can SO concentrate on working out! I mean, I work so much in he Green Zone here in baghdad, that off duty hours there just isnt much to do…watch DVDs, workout, more DVDs or go to the small coffee shop, or the PX (which is the size of a large convenience store)…I guess some people booze it up pretty good here, but I dont even go down that road. Therefore, working out is how I fill up my "down time"! Ok, the money as civilian contractor is good as well, but health wise, being here is as good as it gets, I dont evne prepare my meals! HHAHAHA…

that is so awesome!!!! You are going to kickass over there b/c of the peace of mind you are getting financially, concentrating on less "things" maybe, etc. like you said. Just a lot is going to work out for you. I actually have known two guys to do CSA or whatever the company is called work overseas and they get in KICK ASS shape like you are.
Congrats on the 6 intervals on HIIT!!! WHOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOO
