Time to get in shape!
Posted By admin on July 22, 2009
The reason I started this blog was that I know, at 37 years old, I am not nearly as fit as I have been in the past. Now I know first hand how to lose weight, how to gain muscle, and how to eat healthy. I know that the benefits of a full body workout three days a week along with a great diet will work wonders.
I had always had a problem gaining weight in high school because I played sports every single day and my metabolism was super high. I really could eat anything I wanted. Well when I was 25 years old I was a bartender in Atlanta, Georgia. There was a girl that I really liked that obviously had an interest in me, and then she ended up seeing my belly at a pool party and called me FAT! After this she didn’t pay much attention to me. I was having so much fun bartending and worked unhealthy hours, I hadn’t even noticed that I was developing a spare tire. I went straight to Barnes and Noble and bought “Body For Life”, by Bill Philips. I worked extremely hard for a few months, and then the next thing you know, that same girl wouldn’t leave me alone. Well the relationship certainly didn’t workout, but she got me to learn everything there is to know about what it takes to get a healthy fit body.
Well, in February of 2008, I got married to the perfect woman. She is actually an aerobics instructor and has started a blog called Aerobics-Workout you might want to take a look at. Anyway, since getting married I kind of slacked off on my going to the gym and being healthy, and didn’t even realize it again!!! So, she said something to me and I knew starting this blog would be an inspiration to me, to get myself healthy, well easier said than done. UNTIL, I went to the doctor this morning and found out I weigh 269.6 lbs!!! Yep, 270 POUNDS! Now, I am six foot three inches tall, but that is a bit excessive.
So, what am I going to do about it? I am going to take the best of the best, combine them into my own workout and share it with you. That means you don’t need to spend $175 for P90x, you don’t have to read every word of “Body For Life” or go through dozens of workouts at Turbulence Training. Or do the “Abs Diet” I am going to borrow the best of each and put it into great workouts for me and for you! More later, time for my first workout! Don’t SNACK!
