So when the new year started, I decided to blow up my BodySpace.  I think I was just getting too "in" to myself.  I felt like I was taking pictures of myself and posting them, hoping for words of approval from other people… I just wasn’t feeling like that was healthy.  (Just to be clear, that is what I was doing.  That’s certainly not what everyone here does.)

The good news is that I never stopped working out.  I am in the gym every morning at 5:15ish, following the Snap Fitness Hyperstrike workout plan, and really seeing gains.  Biking up hills is easier than ever, and my cardiologist says that my heart function is now almost normal!  On interesting piece of doctor’s orders that I received: "DON’T STOP EXERCISING."  That put a smile on my face.

As far as progress, I know I have a lot more definition, but I am not sure that I have gained any size.  I’ll update measurements soon, just to see.

One thing that I have come to realize about fitness is that, at least for me, it is a long, long marathon.  Nothing happens overnight.  …And not much happens over a month.  But put a few months together, and amazing things can happen.  

So why am I posting again?  Honestly, I think I am starting to annoy people on twitter and facebook with my posting about being up at 5AM and in the gym.  (Twitter: Steve_Wms)
