So, I've been hitting the gym, hardcore, every single day for the past four weeks and a half. It's been pretty fucking awesome. We work out for about an hour and a half. For the last week and a half, I've been kicking my ass for 30 minutes straight on the elliptical. Finally. Maybe I can work up to 45 minutes or an hour on the elliptical. It's a pretty awesome workout. I get so sweaty, it's ridiculous. I need a sweat towel! SWEAT TOWEL! HAHA.
Weight lifting has definitely been good too. I use the dumbbells for bicep curls, shoulder shrugs, and lat raises. Maybe I should also use the dumbbells for squats and lunges, but, I don't know how I feel about squatting in a gym yet. Haha. I can feel my back, arms, shoulders, and legs becoming more and more toned. I am definitely losing more inches. I don't care about losing weight, but, I definitely want to lose inches (and my gut). It's been going pretty well. I've definitely changed my body - for the better.
I feel better, healthier, and I have more energy to spare. I no longer need a nap after I work out, haha. For the first couple of weeks, I felt so drained that I napped every afternoon after our workouts. Now I just feel energized. I am in awe of what my body is accomplishing now. I have confidence and a little pep in my step. I feel so good about myself. For once, I am happy with my body. It's strong and capable.
Lately, I've become obsessed with something called Marble Hornets. It started with some YouTube videos. It's apparently an ARG. It's freaky as hell. I will link you guys up with the YouTube accounts and the twitter account.
Basically it's about this film student whose friend previously gave him a bunch of old tapes. The friend, Alex, said he wanted to burn them, but the film student, J, wanted to keep them. So Alex gave J all of his old tapes, saying that he never wanted to watch them again. J, being intrigued, decided to go through the old tapes. He found some pretty interesting shit. There has been another player. His/Her YouTube account is called ToTheArk. He or she responds to some of J's videos. They are even scarier than some of the actual entries. I will send linkage now.
