Fitness Journey – Week 41

Wow, it’s been a while! Well, I’ve got a lot to catch you up on, but even more to reflect on. This is week 41 since I first started on this “Fitness Journey” (yeah, I counted). Now since it has been so long since I last wrote, I originally was thinking about “restarting” back to […]

Fitness Journey – Week 15

So today marks the start of my 15th week of my fitness journey. This is a pretty big mile mark for me just because it represents a consistency that I simply haven’t done so in the past. Most of my life I have had a really hard time sticking with something for an extended period […]

Chalk Talk #14 – How to Change Your Life

Over the last 14 weeks that I have been working towards a fitness level that I want to achieve, I have learned a lot along the way. I think one of the biggest and notable things I have learned from this experience so far is the importance of a routine. I’ve read about having a […]

Fitness Journey – Week 14

Another start of my fitness journey! Week 14! Pretty crazy. It’s been a really fun journey so far. There has been ups and downs, successes and failures, but overall progress. That’s all that matters at the end of the day. All I need to see is that I am better now than I was 14 […]

Fitness Journey – Week 13

Well let me start off by saying thank goodness for cheat days! My wife just had her 27th birthday yesterday and we went to Olive Garden to celebrate. I was swimming in a sea of bread stick and alfredo ecstasy. Shortly after I was plummeting down into a food and carb induced coma, but hell […]

So today will be the last “Workout Wednesday” post. I want to keep you all interested in the things I have to say and not be too repetitive in the material that I am presenting to you. So from now on I will be doing my Monday weekly check up and weigh in and just […]

Chalk Talk #11 – So Sick of Being Tired, and Oh So Tired of Being Sick

You every think back to when you were a kid and the world was at your feet? You remember the times when you would stay up late with your friends and just simply dream about the future? The cool stuff you would be doing with your life, the relationships that you would have, the money, […]

Workout Wednesday #10

Well after a really terrible workout last Friday, I am back on track so far this week. I can’t stress enough how nice it is to have good workouts. A bad workout is just no good for anyone. Though I will admit that the two days in a row of juicing is kinda killing me. […]

Fitness Journey – Week 10

So today comes the end of the first week of Hell Month and the start of the second. For the first week, I would say I did pretty well. I did make two adjustments to my attack though. First, I upped my daily calories from 1350, to 1550. The two hundred extra calories really helped […]
