nothing. my back is still killing me from the squats.

6/3/2010 12:19:50 AM

Swam 750 - hopefully running later.

6/3/2010 7:47:33 AM

Upper back and triceps this morning. Also, ran 3.5 miles again.

I'm really pushing my body right now since I feel as physically well as I have in years. Even my bum right elbow/shoulder is feeling 100% since I'm not playing baseball/softball anymore. I'm at 174 right now (though most people think I'm in my 150s when they see me) and I think ideally I'd like to be at 168 or 169 to get rid of any excess body fat I have.

I'm really trying to cut down on alcohol and sugars but my want is higher than my will still...

6/3/2010 10:44:29 AM

Biked for 45 minutes and lifted some weights. I'm steadily reaching my goal

6/3/2010 10:45:47 AM

6/3/2010 11:35:05 AM

we can play at porchas in brier creek. its a long ass drive for me though. bonus is i can get put back dunks, lol.

6/3/2010 11:36:40 AM

Looks like today is a no go for me

But if you play at Brier Creek on a weekend, I would be down. Are there usually full court games or is it just 21/shootaround type of thing? I'd love to play some full court pickup somewhere on a weekend since usually my gym sucks at having anyone play that time of week.

6/3/2010 11:44:07 AM

it's indoor halfcourt. i played 2v2 last time and it wasnt bad. i'm not big into running though .

6/3/2010 11:46:03 AM

what's porchas? i'll play most anytime on weekends

6/3/2010 11:46:49 AM

sorry, porcha's

kicked my ass, in the best way possible

just finished my 2nd workout, kicked my ass again but felt a little better about it

and the soreness is something i havent felt since the first days of wrestling preseason conditioning

which is comprehensive, full-body, can't even think about moving without setting your entire body on fire...but i really am driving myself like those coaches i hated so much used to for 10+ years


i love it

I'll be there tomorrow and Sunday!! But my last day is officially August 4th (and I'll probably be gone by then anyways)


Sad day

6/4/2010 8:38:53 AM

i'm sure this has probably been asked...but does anyone here go to the Y on hillsborough st???

6/4/2010 9:15:00 AM

Yes. A whole bunch of us do. In fact, I am on my way over there right now. It's good. New equipment, plenty of space and all the amenities you need. If you're 28 or younger it's really cheap, too...

6/4/2010 9:16:16 AM

oh yeah...i go there too...i was just curious but i totally agree with you...i joined back in january and my experience there has been great. i need to get back in the swing of things though...i haven't been consecutively in like a month

6/4/2010 9:19:33 AM

i may bite the bullet and start going to the brand new planet fitness that's opening by my house...

it's $10/month with no contract so that's good for me...

and it's right beside my tanning salon and the grocery store so i'm in that location at least 3-4 times a week anyway

swam 750m

[Edited on June 4, 2010 at 9:23 AM. Reason : ^ gold's was $17/month for me with no membership fee...but i had to pay for 2 years upfront]

6/4/2010 9:22:46 AM

^^yeah...it's probably going to be a shit hole...but i don't care...

i just need the basics...

so i'll gladly pay $10/month for an elliptical machine and a few free weights

6/4/2010 11:25:30 AM

i signed onto golds for $37/mo plus some initiation fee, my gf at the time was able to get $30/mo no fee that's the cheapest i've heard. Just recently though they upped the monthly fee of everyone $2 so now i pay 39/mo. Kinda ridiculous but i do like their gyms

6/4/2010 11:30:08 AM

Shoulders and calfs today.

I really feel like I'm making progress now with getting rid of that elusive last 3 or 4 pounds. It's amazing what adding 12-15 miles of jogging a week can do. I think in about 1.5-2 months if I can keep this up I'll be right where I want to be.

It probably has more to do with genetics but I am not seeing the physical results in the chest area that I'd like compared to shoulders/arms/back/etc. I'm definitely getting stronger but I don't look any different there like I do other parts.

6/4/2010 11:33:17 AM

^^do you go to Gold's at pleasant valley? I just joined a 4mo deal there. IIRC you lived in the N raleigh area

6/4/2010 11:34:08 AM

After the weights last night, I finished with 6 minutes of running/sprints (might sound like a random number but, I had wrestling on the mind so I went as hard as I could for the full length of a match ) and then followed that up with as many pullups and pushups as I had left in me. Was pretty exhausted but it felt great.
