4 sets of 15 with 17 pound dumbbells on each of the following:

Shoulder presses, lateral raises, front raises and bentover DB flies.
Also walked outside for about 30 minutes.

Today is the “bootcamp” day. Hope to get through 3 circuits today. My workout consists of the following with no break between exercises:

5 min. jog warm up.
as many pushups as I can do
12-15 jump squats
5 each side, planks with rotation
15-30 jumping jacks
15 each side, mountain climbers
and then a fast 5 minute run.

take a 3 minute break and then complete another circuit.

Today I am on an emotional low. I feel like within the past month, I have lost a lot of the support I once had in the bodyspace community. Some of you know about the little side group I am/was a part of within bodyspace called “The Circle” and the bash they were to have. If you don’t ask me about it. Anyways, just seems like since that weekend, I have been shunned by the others. Maybe because I blogged about it and made one of their “favorites” look bad. I mean, I was never really on the inside. I knew a few people and am still great friends with 1 or 2 of them but I just feel like I was never really a part of the group in the big picture and the weekend of “the bash” sort of solidified that thought. That other then the 1 or 2 good friends I have made, I really didn’t belong in that clic. Even though I showed much support to all of the people I knew, I always felt like an outsider.
So I am making a clean break. I am keeping the friendships I have made but I am obsolving myself from that group. I need to make a clean break. I know I have supporters and friends in here as well, and I am greatful for you all.
And to symbolize this clean break, I did something I haven’t done in 10 years. I shaved my moustache. I will be taking a picture tonight. Time to stop hiding my face and show the strong chiseled look I am going to have.
