I wonder if theres a Batman Unitard in my size?

     So my quest to be more fit has been challenged and pushed. There are now set regulations set up with my bet with my buddy. He still just has to not smoke, so far so good. He is doing well. Me? I have the harder part of the bargain. In addition to doing the 10K in October, I now have a set schedule and workout at the gym. I must go from Monday through Thursday, no exceptions.I am to do Cardio and Strength Training each day. I have Friday and Sunday off, while I just have to do cardio on Saturday. So far so good, I'm sore but in a good way. I keep this up and I can do it.  Any deviation of this is regarded as a violation of our agreement. And I will never hear the end of it. I have been warned that there have been spies and informants put in place to inform Rob if I don't go. Creeper!
      Its not so bad, I gotta admit it gave the kick in the ass I needed. Which is awesome. And its cool that I have friends who care enough about my health and well being that they risk being such huge pains in my ass. But its awesome. I have had so many people offer to help me out. I even had these two guys who come into work that we call the gym guidos offer help. I was in the coffee shop today and they spotted me and demanded to know if I went to the gym yet. Man he does have spies everywhere. My goal for now is to not expire at the 10K. I'm getting better with the eating aspect of my diet. I really need to bump up my water intake though. I also need to be more knowledgeable of how to work out. What exercises work which muscles and how to do them safely. Also got to get better at stretching, thinking some yoga can help that. I'm told soon we move onto supplements and how they help.Well that's all now folks Thanks for reading about my pitfalls with the fitness goals. I think I got the short end of the stick on this one but I'm gonna run with it.

  1. I'm super proud of you! You're inspiring me to get back to the gym/out running more often. I can't commit to the schedule you've got, but more often I can do. Way to go!
