Me too, me too!

Randomly checking blogspot after I dunno, a few months of not caring about blogging, I see Mai has made a post here again! Not to be outdone, I suppose I'll update my own progress as well.

I dunno what my weight is, and I don't care. So far, stuff is going good. I'm doing wrist rollers, coffin situps, hindu squats, tricep kickbacks, weighted punches, bicep curls, shoulder rolls, and a couple of hand/wrist strengthening exercises I do with my short staff. In other words, a good bit.

It's actually more manageable than it looks. It takes less than 20 minutes to do these, even if I did it all at once, and I don't. I warm up my breathing in the morning and do wrist rollers, shoulder rolls, and bicep curls--as well as these leg lifting things as well, but I don't count the reps. I just lift my legs up and down rapidly like I'm trying to knee someone in the crotch over and over again for as long as I can.

Then in the afternoon a few hours after breakfast I do my coffin situps, hindu squats, weighted punches, and tricep kickbacks.

Then in the evening a few hours after lunch, I do my wrist/grip strengthening exercises outside. After that I go inside and eat dinner.

ANYWAY, the plan is to do it for two solid weeks without missing a day and then I increase reps and/or add more exercises. That's starting tomorrow. Er, well, today. It is 1:58 in the morning, here...

I've just been figuring out what I'm gonna do and how much, and now I think I'm settled on it.

I don't care about my weight, really. I know I'll lose my excess fat doing this stuff, my real focus is how much strength I gain. I want to be fast, strong, fluid, flexible, agile, powerful, and have good endurance. In the future I want to be doing situps where I'm gripping a punching bag with my legs while it hangs from the ceiling on a chain. I want to be doing handstand pushups, hindu pushups, I want to be doing 3 minute back bridges every day. I want to be doing twenty reps of wrist rollers, etc.

I plan on getting VERY fit and VERY strong. And now I think I have the right combination of internal focus and mind set to do it.

BAM!

Mai Random Restart

Starting weigh-in: 193.6
Last weigh-in: 189.4 @ 7:32am
Today's weigh in: 204.2lbs ..... GAINED 14.8lbs

I finally found a loop in my schedule to work out. I gained the freshman 15, which I thought I would never do. But I guess long days of not eating and eating all starchy, greasy foods at the end of the day and not working out DID NOT HELP.

I got tired of feeling sorry for myself, so I finally started going to the gym... that's across my building. Yeah, yeah, I know.

I started speed walking for at least 30 minutes, just to get back in the groove and not over do my body. I started yesterday, I weighed in at 206, so I guess the 2lb difference was poop or whatever.

Anyway, so far my regimen is do at least a mile/day at 3.5mph at 1.5% incline. So far I've done 2 miles/day.

It's late in the year, but better late than never I guess.
