I tried a new exercise that I seen one of my buddies doing at the gym. Basically you take a plate, I used a 25lb, and hold it over your head and rotate it around your body. I am not sure what you call this but I found some new muscles doing it. I think I over did it a bit for trying it for the first time. The top of my pecs hurt like…. Does anyone know what this workout is called? I would like to make sure I am doing it correctly.

So as I am usually the one in my household that is a gym rat, I am excited that my fiancé is getting into it. She has been doing classes at our gym for about the last two weeks now and is going six days a week now. She is feeling better and has more energy and now she understands why I go. I think I will be able to stay more motivated. With her into the fitness scene we can work off each other.

So I have been doing pretty good if you have seen my weight chart lately. It is a very encouraging thing to see that line drop and drop… Although I haven’t been exercising as much as I would like, I have kept my food consistent. This food issue has been a constant problem through my life and I think I have finally found my way with regards to portion control. The most difficult time is always the weekend. This weekend was pretty good, I even got one of my friends eating smaller portions….     So this week my goal is to do some form of cardio every day. Thanks for reading!

The last couple days have been hellish for me, I was contained to the couch, sick with the Norovirus. It did help me lose a couple pounds but only because I didn’t eat anything for two days. As I am still not 100% I won’t be going to the gym today, I don’t think. I really don’t want to pass this virus on, it wasn’t a nice two days. If anyone know how long this virus is contagious for please let me know. Thanks, Cam
