What an odd feeling to wake up in the morning and not feel the pressure to do something that needs to be done. So, of course, I hit the gym. Let me tell you, 2 weeks off the gym and I nearly vomitted on my first time back. Then again I was working myself out which I do much more hardcore than when I am with others. Only did 3/4 the workout because ( Read more... )

I've got a whopper of a bruise on my middle finger right now. The inside of it. Lifting weights has not helped it. It got worse, actually. It feels like there's a tiny bb below surface. On the upside, I did 110 lbs lat pull down. I'm covered in bruises down my shins from running and pushing weights on the floor while I run...and bear crawls. My ( Read more... )

Under recommendation of my trainer I switched my cardio routine. Instead of doing an hour of cardio I was told to drop to 30 mins but to make sure that for the whole time my HR stays above 160. So, tonight I went to start it. WOW! What a difference! Granted I get really sweaty after an hour of endurance type running, 30 mins for high intensity ( Read more... )

So great to see Ben and Justin the other night at the Misfits concert. That being said I have the loneliness creeping in, mostly because of my hectic schedule and not being able to see or do much besides school, gym, training, and then homework - let alone wrestling shows. I submitted my research to the Southern Cali Conference of Undergrad ( Read more... )

So in effort to get better results physically at the gym and to help with wrestling training I've employed a personal trainer. I have a workout schedule. I have an eating schedule. I work out 6 days a week. I am on it ( Read more... )

So, I took a ton (literally about 20) body slams at training last Saturday and by the end my toe was throbbing and my calf was in pain (it's hard to explain but the way you land the impact can hurt). In addition to an insane amount of ridiculous bumps cause I was learning luch drop kicks....i wasn't as sore as I have been...I've been working hard ( Read more... )

Tonight, with hesitation, I laced up my running shoes, threw on my new gym pants and track jacket, got into my car and drove to the gym. I wasn't sure how much cardio I was going to do but I got on the mill and started going. With this, I topped yesterday and made my new personal best for jogging distance, time, and speed. In the grad scheme of ( Read more... )

This morning was not only weight in day but it was also tape measure time. Since May I'm down 14 pounds and have condensed over 5",two of those inches from my waist. I'm kinda at a stall right now which is frustrating, actually I got to a stall earlier this week but i got past it a little bit by starting back at the gym since I was slacking due to ( Read more... )
