Weekend Update: Doing the Right Thing
August 23rd, 2008 — , Behavior, Exercise, Progress, Real-Life, inspiration from J.D. @ Get Fit Slowly
I’ve been negligent about the one hundred pushups challenge, both here and in Real Life. I stopped doing my pushups for a week, and it’s been a while since I updated my progress here.
As part of getting “back on the bus”, I’m remedying that situation today. I performed a one-time exhaustion test as a [...]
It ain’t over until Fitarella sings!

I will say up front that this isn’t a fitness related post. Well, maybe mental/emotional fitness, so feel free to skip over if you’re not in the mood for my self-reflecting blather (thanks for the borrow BL).
I have always sung. My mother has cassette tapes of me singing at age 3 everything from I’m a [...]

Running. Love it or leave it?
July 21st, 2008 — , Motivation, inspiration, running, weight loss from Peter @ Quick To Fit
One thing I used to just hate doing was running. I would rather die than go running. Running is hard, it makes you sweat and it always leaves you as a heaving sweaty lump on the floor.
Well that’s how I used to think about it at least.
Since I’ve been working out and trying to lose [...]
Monday morning fitness blog roundup!

The weekend is over, and I have to admit I didn’t get as much exercise as I had hoped. Yesterday I didn’t do anything except go for a walk with my wife, which is better than nothing, but still not what I had hoped. My diet was also a bit lackluster as we attended [...]

June 12th, 2008 — , Exercise, inspiration from J.D. @ Get Fit Slowly
I’ve always had a strange body. When I was in high school, I could lift tremendous weights with my lower body, but could barely bench press the bar. As I’ve grown older, my lower body strength has declined somewhat, but it’s always remained greater than it ought to be. Meanwhile, I was still barely able [...]

The NOVA Marathon Challenge

My sister-in-law called the other night. “Make sure to watch NOVA this week,” she told me. “It’s about the science of marathons.” So I watched. And took notes.
NOVA’s Marathon Challenge didn’t contain a lot that was new to me. I’m aware of how hard running can be on your body, and I’m aware that it [...]

At her personal site, Mac’s wife — Coach Pam — has the story of her recent 20-mile race. She’s a life-long runner. Reading her story gives me insight into the mind of a veteran. I particularly like her approach to the end of the race, where she keeps telling herself she can walk in a [...]

It was “lower body day” at the gym this morning. Methodically, I worked my way through the major muscle groups:

Hamstrings: Lying leg curls (from 12×40 to 6×80, with a peak at 12×50) and straight-leg deadlifts (12×25)

Is there something you have always wanted to do, but keep putting it off for whatever reason? Are you so caught up in the day to day grind you’ve forgotten how to relax?
Bottom line, is real life kicking you in the a$$……
