53 Days until Mid Tour

Well Thanksgiving has come and gone.  I'm glad another major holiday is out of the way for me here at Daegu.  One more major holiday and then shortly after I will be home for mid tour.  I can't wait.  It's hard to keep my self busy and motivated right now.  All I want to do is sit on my couch, watch movies and eat myself into January.  BUT that won't help me with my fitness goals and it won't make my time go by any faster.  As a matter of fact it will probably make time go slower.  Anyways I hit the gym today because I could walk.  I haven't did anything the past two days because I blasted my legs on Leg Day this past Tuesday.  When am I going to learn not to do that.  Probably never!

GO HARD OR GO HOME!!!

56 Days Until Mid-Tour

Well today was the dreaded leg day.  I almost talked myself out of it BUT I followed through.  Not too much going on besides trying to make the gym a habit still.  At least going to the gym each day makes my week fly by.  Until next time...

57 Days Until Mid-Tour

Well I thought today was a good day to start my "come home for mid-tour" countdown.  Maybe I will find motivation to get my butt to the gym knowing that I am coming home soon.  I am looking forward to January and I'm already looking forward to the holidays being over with.  It will come soon enough.  I just need to stay busy and the time will take care of itself.  It seems like I have a good workout plan, I just need to execute it.  Physical exercise is totally up to the individual.  Either you do it OR you don't.  It's just that simple.  Until next time...

Just Run

Well today was a run only day.  Sort of like a day off from lifting but not running.  My workouts go three days of lifting/running and the fourth day is just running.  Then it starts all over again.  It seems to work good so far.  I decided to spend my hour run outside.  It was quite chilly starting off but by the end I wasn't quite so cold.  I'm not looking forward to the winter.

Trying to Fight the Lazy...

I know I need to work out BUT fighting my inner laziness is one tough battle.  I guess I just need to take it one work out at a time and see where that takes me.  Onward and upward right?

Back in the Saddle again...

Well the longer I wait in between work outs, the harder it is to get back into it.  So if I just stayed motivated I wouldn't find myself in these situations.  It doesn't help that my mouth is bothering me BUT that is no excuse to eat poorly and not go to the gym.  I need to keep my head on straight and focus on my goals.  Only I stand in my way of achieving my goals.  I need to remember that.

Slacker...

Well I've been a slacker the last little while and it shows when it comes to my weight.  I am back in the 250's which is a little disheartening.  So I am once again putting on my LOSE WEIGHT face and getting back to work.  I'm still looking at the goal of the 220's by the time I head home mid-January.  That is going to take a lot of work.
