Tired of looking like I do, wanted to make some changes in my life, That included diet and working out.Me and my wife started together.
Why I Love It:
I guess the biggest reason I love it is seeing, as well as feeling the results. I have not cut much fat yet, but I have improved my stamina as well as put on about 20lbs of muscle.
How I Stay Motivated:
Bodybuilding.com has helped me stay motivated. Not to mention that if I miss a trip to the gym I feel guilty as hell.
I really did not want to do cardio anymore than I had to, I wanted to lift weights. Last week a member at our gym that I really look up to came up to us and told us his story.when he came to the gym the first time he weighed 300lbs and had never touched a weight.He said he spent 7 months doing nothing but cardio and lost 99 lbs. This guy looks like a pro now. Anyway he told us we needed to stop lifting weights and concentrate on cardo more, as well as changing our diet in a big way. So I guess my goal now is to try and drop the weight, then I will go back to weight training.
I just wanted to get on for a few minutes and tell everybody that is on my friends list, as well as everyone on bodybuilding.com to have a very merry christmas, I pray that everbody has a safe and happy holiday, and that 2008 is an even better year for everyone.
DONT REALLY HAVE A PROGRAM THAT WE FOLLOW PER SAY,RIGHT NOW WE ARE DOING CARDIO FOR 1 HOUR 6 DAYS A WEEK PER OUR TRAINERS REQUEST,LOL. WE ARE STILL WORKING OUT AFTERWARDS ON WEDNESDAYS AND SATURDAYS, BUT DONT REALLY HAVE A SET WORKOUT FOR THOSE DAYS.
I know how you feel when it comes to getting sick ... I was down and out for three weeks ... tried to work out as much a possible without having my head explode due to the pressure build-up in my head!
If all goes ok buy june, I will be in odessa for 2 weeks at a time till then. I plan to come check the gym out this week I am leaving tomarrow Tue 22 to travel up and work.
Tell me about it I am being promoted to distric mgr. to go out west can't pas it up. my wife is finishing school to be a teacher and she works for the high school here at home now. Maybe we can hook up when I get out there. I also plan to promote a NGA bodybuild show in odessa it is a drug free event so spread the word out west.
Few more weeks left before we head home, since I was late coming out here, I'm pretty much here til the end. Training is going good, this 12 set routine is really helping me to tone more.
Went on R&R, did some fishing(caught a 8in bass with a gut), came back to Iraq, passed the promotion board, get promoted in NOV, start heading home in a couple of month.
i write them so i have some place to track my progress. i mean, i understand some folks like that feed back (i wouldnt mind some myself), but dont rely on others to motivate you. you gotta push yourself. you gotta make this your journey.
Thanks bro' you feel the way many do "but" that's OK let see what they say in 7 1/2 weeks when they see me in Dallas at the 2007 Nationals:-) train hard and stay hard-core! Later Daryl Jones www.superheavyweight.com
