Hey guys, I am still working out. My new job is going great! The stress level is a lot lower. Now I need to eat better. I am on the road 3 times a week so I never whats for lunch. My boss took me out to Chinese food and then yesterday I went to another Chinese food place with my field trainer. I paid. I tried to get a meal that was as healthy as I could get. Oh well.

My workouts have been going well. The great thing about this job I have a lot free time to hit the gym. I have been trying to increase wieght consitstantly. I have been puting my workouts on the tracker. Sometimes not as consitstantly as I should but its updated now. Thats it for now. If I think of anything else I will let you know. Later!

Starting New Job Tomorrow.

I finally start my job tomorrow with a week of training. I went on the 18th to the office did some paperwork than I was leaving told me training starts tomorrow the 29th not the 22th. So I had another week off. I was not too happy. If I had known then I would have worked my old job another week so I would have gotten paid. Oh well.

I have been hitting the gym about 4 times a week. I am not too sure if I will be able to go this week because I have "homework" ugh. Once I get familuar with my new schedule I hope I get into a new workout routine. Later.

Still Working Out

Its been a crazy few weeks. I was offered job at an new company. I had to take a couple of state insurance exams. I took them today and passed! Now I start my formal training on Monday. Tomorrow I have to go to the office tomorrow to do some paperwork.

I have been working out about 3 to 4 times a week. I have been putting them on the workout trackes. I was planning to do legs today but I need to get some rest. Hopefully tomorrow I can go. Later

Great Week!

This has been a great week. On Wednesday I turned 40! How did I celebrate? I did back and biceps after work. I actually got together with my family on Sunday. I feel great being 40. I am in the best shape of my life. Its been a tough few weeks getting to they gym. I have been trying to go at least 4 times a week but for the past couple of weeks only 2 to 3 times. I had some stuff going on. I was sick and also interviewing. It paid off. I was offered and accepted a position in the insurance industry. I am so excited. I have been looking for a bit and really need a change of pace.

This week, on Monday I did legs, on Wednesday I did back and biceps and Thursday I did arms and triceps. Now that I am done interviewing I will be hitting the gym more regularly.

100 th Blog entry

ed.mcintosh — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 18:56:18 +0000

This is my 100th blog entry. I wish I could say I had a great workout with pb’s in all of my workouts. But today I did chest, tries and abs. It was a tough workout. I had the worst sleep last night we had thunderstorms throughout the night. It took me a while to get warmed up and I had to take longer breaks than normal in between sets. Also yesterday I had to get up early because I had to go to a funeral. A buddy of mine growing up his mother died this week. It was good to see him and a number of people who I have not seen in a while. A few people said to me that I looked great. A friend of mine his mother thought I was my brother because he is a bit bigger than me.

Because of the funeral I did not go to the gym yesterday but did legs and back Wednesday night. I will post my work out on the tracker a little bit later. Even though I have not posted blogs as regularly as before I have been going the the gym and eating clean. The only thing I am disappointed in is that I lost a couple of pounds this week. Now I am going to get some rest. Later!

First posting in a while

Hi everyone! I have not really had the time to update by BodyBlog. I have been busy with work and other things. I have been going to the gym consistently. I always make time to go. I have been increasing weight and I can tell I have been making progress. I will soon post a new progress picture. Later!

Shoulders and Abs

ed.mcintosh — Sat, 19 Jul 2008 02:47:33 +0000

I have not posted for a couple of days. Its been hard to do during the summer. I did shoulders, biceps and abs today and yesterday I did chest, triceps and abs. Both workouts were good. I maintained weight on each. I feel like I am finally back up to speed after being sick. I have been trying to change my routines a bit. I have been doing skull crushes, assisted dips and assisted chin ups. Also I started to to cable crunches. They kick ass! I feel them a bit. Last night I saw my brother and the first thing he did was complement me. He said he could tell that I have been working out. That made my day. Later.

Legs and Abs

ed.mcintosh — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 05:21:03 +0000

I went to the gym tonight and I had a great let workout. Throughout the day I was dragging and almost went straight home but I said to my self I need to go the gym no matter what. I am glad I went as I started I had a burst of energy. I wound up having a personal best in squats, calf extensions and leg curls. It was a short workout about 40 minutes but it was a good one. Now I am going to veg a bit before I go to bed. Later.

Shoulders

I went to the gym after work and did shoulders and abs. I was in a shitty mood. Work totally sucked and my general manager was being such a pain in the @$$. Right now I am frustrated with work but now is not the time to look for a new job. I started with overhead press and I went up in weight. Then I did Shrugs I went up to 175 lbs. Then I lat raises and Cuban press. I finished by doing abs and went 12 minutes on the treadmill. I needed the workout now I feel a little bit better. Later

Chest and Tries

ed.mcintosh — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 05:35:03 +0000

Today was a big test on how much better I feeling. Did chest and triceps. It started well with bench press and inclined press. I was started to feel it a little bit by the time I did cable crossovers and when I did French curls. I had to drop weight while doing triceps push downs and French curls. I thought that I might have to because I missed 2 weeks of workouts. That sucks! Tonight I am a little sore hopefully tomorrow I will have a good back and bicep workout. Later
