Getting Serious is hard work - or is getting hard serious work?
Wednesday, July 11th, 2007Well, the title is prolly better than the blog entry, telling you that RIGHT NOW!
After over 6 months of pissing around at this "exercise" thing, I have tried a whole bunch of stuff. I keep coming back to weight training as the thing that seems to satisfy me the most.
So I have been doing 3 days a week pretty religiously now. My weight is dropping, clothes are not fitting right, my carcass is changing. Long story short - what I am doing seems to at least be having an effect.
However my approach has been sort of shotgun. Working mostly my whole body on every work out. Increasing weights and or reps as the exercise gets easier.But changing exercises to frequently to really track progress.
I seemed to have too many exercises and spend too long in the gym, it feels like I was holding back just so I could make it through to the end.
Then I got to reading about different types of workouts. This of course overtaxed my mind and caused me to totally get confused by the multitude of exercises available. After 3 weeks of study I think I have finally got a workout program ready!
I decided to go with a 2 day split. Mon., Wed., and Fri. Lower Body one day, upper body alternating day. Seven exercises and one alternate for each day. Get in - get her done- and bail.
Sounds good…maybe.
I will let you know.
