Well, here we are 28 days later. Almost a whole month, since I was more overweight than I am comfortable admitting to. How much did I progress in 28 days? How far have I come in a little less than a month? Well here are some stats, and the pictures follow below the break. (FYI: [...]

Well, I only have two days left in this Velocity Diet experiment. I’ve fallen behind on my blogging as I’ve taken on more academic work. However, be sure to stay tuned for my BIG results post in about two days. Wait until you see how many inches I’ve dropped off my waistline in 4 weeks! [...]

I hate days like this! Weights and interval training definitely shouldn’t be combined- unless you want to put your body in serious fits of pain. What can I say though, I am a sucker for a challenging workout. I won’t include the details of my weight training session this morning. Suffice it to say it [...]
Day 21: Watch Out for Crap…Literally…

There are many good things about having an outdoor gym in your backyard. There is the freedom, the 24/7 access, the no weird guys wearing spandex, and the ability to shower and get dressed at home. However, there are also some drawbacks- especially if you are a dog owner. I am referring specifically to the [...]
Gym Closed for Snow…or is it?

Well, aside from shoveling snow and throwing snowballs, I thought it would be fun to get in a quick workout. Okay, I just decided to stage some photos of what it would look like if I chose to workout in the snow. Enjoy. And some tire flipping… Oh, and I’m also getting Sasha into the [...]

Today was a pretty good holiday. I got to watch lots of Powerpuff Girls with my daughter (there was a marathon today) and I got in a good workout. Also, if you promise not to tell me trainer, I even had a regular meal for lunch. We were out bargain hunting at Circuit City- BTW, [...]

Well today turned out to be surprisingly pleasant, despite raining almost all day. Toward the end of the day (around 4 p.m.) I started to despair that I wouldn’t be able to squeeze in an interval training session. Consequently I figured I would make something out of the day by doing some grip strength training. [...]

Day 15 came and went. Not to make excuses, but it was about 9 degrees outside and my heater was broken. I ended up spending the day huddled up in front of the portable heater reading a book. I figured I would just do some grip strength training and call it a day. However, I [...]
