This workout was fantastic! I took three days off. I hadn't intended to take Friday off - I also hadn't intended to go to my son's baseball game (I thought the first one was this Friday). So I skipped the W1D4 workout.During this workout I felt a lot stronger. I wasn't nearly as fatigued …
TRX – ceiling mount
I was going to buy a TRX ceiling mount when I found an article on a different and cheaper anchor point...actually I found a couple.http://hubcitytri.blogspot.com/2010/12/trx-suspension-trainer-anchor.htmlhttp://www.travelinfitness.com/2014/02/trx-anchor-install-for-garage-gym/I decided that the same thing was in order for my house. The door workouts are great, however, there are some workouts that mention needing something different and that is a …
TRX – W1D3
I wasn't dreading today's workout - except in time. It's hard to think that I will spend 3 hours with my wife watching tv, an hour driving to pickup kids, and work through lunch, but not take one hour a day to workout. The hardest part about workouts is assuring myself that the time spent …
TRX W1D2
Holy crap - most of this workout was getting my feet into the straps. The skinny people in the video make it look way easier than it is. It's really like being on all fours on a rope bridge and trying to kick a puppy. You'll never kick the puppy but you will wobble.Only one …
First TRX workout
I will start by saying I love Tony Horton. I bash on him about the P90X series, but they have truly helped me find workouts that don't suck. P90X helped me lose inches in weeks and over two months or so improve strength. P90X2 did the same, but felt a bit more rough than P90X. …
My gift – TRX
I have come to learn over the years that I will find excuses not to work out. I don't like gyms - I always feel like people are staring at the weeble-wobble-guy running on the treadmill; or judging my form. Maybe they're all thinking that I'm judging them. I don't know, but I don't like …
Day 11 – trip to TN
It's not actually Day 11, it's actually closer to day 64. I kept having false starts - I'd want to workout and do something, but I just didn't feel like it. In 64 days I've lost about 11 pounds - most of that in the last 11-20 days.Saturday (after I fully hydrated from the workout …
Progress – and moving forward
I've had these blades for like 4 weeks maybe (sometime the week of the 24th of Mar). I built a slideboard like the next week. I've used the slideboard a few times (mostly b/c of weather). I've managed to get in a skate about 2x a week (mostly due to location). I'm trying to find …
Blading
I've had the skates for about 2 or 3 weeks now. I've bladed probably 5 times, maybe 6. That seems like a low number to me. I've exercised on the slideboard at least 4x weekly since finishing it.I've found one park for skating that has relatively flat surfaces and in the .46 mi trail everyone …
Slideboard
I've not posted anything probably since my Jan 1st post. Since I put all of that out there, I've had a very good year.I was given a challenge to challenge myself to get back into a smaller size; not because I'm fat, but because I have my own goal (as I stated in my Jan …
