This is the final post for the 2012 Summer Workout Session. And what a summer it has been. To summarize, I began on June 1st and did cardio for about two weeks. On June 15th I read a book called Muscle Chow and educated myself on proper diet for muscle gain. The book includes over 150 […]
It has officially been 3 months since June 1st. I’ve never felt better and more confident physically than right now. So here’s an update: I ended the “No Alcohol” streak. But all that means is that I drank alcohol — it doesn’t mean I go “drinking”. I still only drink water when I go out […]
So my last summer 2012 post was the last progress report a month ago. If you’ve been following the summer 2012 workout posts, I apologize for my lack of updates, but there hasn’t really been any change. I’ve been cruising steadily through my Stronglift 5×5 workouts and haven’t missed a single scheduled workout day. I’m […]
So it has been officially one month since I started the Summer Session 2012 health binge/workout. Thanks to everyone who has been following along so far. The last month has been nothing short of incredible in terms of what I have learned and how I feel. I have never felt as healthy as I do […]
Okay, so it’s been over a week since I made the post that I was officially done with alcohol. And so far, it is the best decision I could have made. Before I continue, let me briefly state that I do not advocate giving up alcohol like I have. I’m simply describing my experience with […]
The day I started the Stronglifts 5×5 routine, I also purchased another book. The book is called Muscle Chow and it details a 2 month diet plan with a bunch of recipes. I’ve been following it for a week now and I already just feel better. It’s all about eating right and eating healthy. Making the most […]
So for the last two weeks I’ve been doing only cardio and calisthenics. Time to build strength and put on some muscle. I got my school card renewed so I can hit the gym. With my post yesterday, I’ve switched to mornings and I’ve never felt more motivated to get jacked and in shape. I’ve been […]
It’s been two weeks since I started the summer session and I’ve been working out well. Lots of running and cardio, but not much lifting. Time to change that — my school card expired and I have to get it renewed. Hopefully I can get that done today so I can get access back to […]
Tomorrow is June 1st. I promised myself that I will work my ass off this summer to get in some decent shape. As you can see from the photo, I’m less than “defined”, but most of all, I’m so out of shape. I can’t run any significant distance without feeling faint or getting completely out […]
