Boot Camp Day 3

Well I did not post anything over the weekend because if I had it would not have been positive. We started fasting on Saturday, and ended this morning at 6:45 a.m. I had one bag of popcorn this weekend (No butter, fat free, 100 calories) to kill the major headache I was getting, …

Rockin the Trainer

I’ve logged about 3 hours on the trainer this week, and I have to say, it IS awesome. I love it.
I’m going to try to head out and get some running in tommorrow, along with a little swim/bike action outside. I’m not sure I can make it with my uncle’s wedding …

Whewww!

Man, I’m spent. I just got done with some serious cardio in the hotel and am about to go grub. I did 20 minutes of interval on the treadmill, then 25 minutes of interval/fat burning on the stair stepper, then another 20 minutes of interval training on the bike, and then finished up …

24 inch Pythons

“Let me tell you something brother. I can hear all the Timmaniacs and they are coming alive. I have been eating my vegetables, taking my vitamins, and I feel stronger than ever.”
This morning was the start of our four weeks of bicep, tricep and forearm hell. We are starting in on something …

New Toy

Thanks to fall rolling up on us, I will be needing one of these to get the amount of riding in I’ll have to log to manage to finish my Katy Trail Challenge:

FYI – The above image is an indoor bike trainer. Turns your regular bike into a stationary bike.
I’m pumped. …
