Another health and fitness thread anyone?

I need to build an excersize station out in the garage. I need to stud mount a circle screw and attach a ski tow rope so I can do 1 leg lifts with a weighted vest on.

 

I am feeling like Jack LaLanne

 

I need a suit like that for when guests come up this summer I also have owned 2 white german shepards.

 

Ran 2.25 miles with the last mile a quick run slightly uphill. Wow that hurt. I'm gonna sleep well tonight.

 

Icy sidewalks and walkways scare me.

 

So I cleared the cement apron of the thick ice and cleared the sidewalk yesterday, got after it and worked up a sweat. Zero soreness amazing feeling, nice not to feel like an old man.

 

Finished up a good week of training with an hour walk/run followed by 60 weighted redneck pushups(25lbs in a backpack).

 

You guys are a bunch of animals!

Day 56 of 75 Hard and I'm still stuck at 20 lbs lost. I can't seem to crack under the 200 lb mark, but I have a feeling that will change before this week ends. I'm eating at a pretty significant calorie deficit every day, so my body can't hang onto this weight forever.

I did a pretty rough KB circuit on Sunday morning, and my hamstrings and glutes are paying for it right now. Yesterday morning was pull day, and afternoon was a 3-mile hike with no weight. I consider those my "active recovery" workouts. I was going to do push day this morning, but my shoulder is a little tender, so I opted for a long steady-state cardio workout on the elliptical. Went for 65 minutes and got in just shy of 9 miles. Depending on how my legs feel tonight, I may or may not throw some weight on my back for the evening hike.

This weekend I'll be out of town for youth turkey season with my son, so I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to finagle my workouts in. I will probably bring my kettlebells with and do some circuits in the barn and then go for a hike. That's my current plan anyways.

 

Still doing my push ups, sit ups, light weight curls and squats but not being careful on what I eat but I knew that would be the hardest part going in. I figure if I can make my arms, shoulders and legs bigger my beer ball aka stomach won’t look as big, but I do feel better just being a little more active.

 

No cheat meals allowed on 75 hard.

*David Goggins voice* STAY HARD!

 

I had a cheat meal today a whopper jr meal, I found what I though was a bonus onion ring in my fries, nope bonus heartburn.

 

2nd mountain bike ride.

Did another 12 miles on the dot.
9.1 mph average.

Little less miles as last week, but did it a little faster. Next ride will be a ride to failure. Want to see what my threshold is. There is a XC race that is local in about 3 weeks and want to see if I can get into race shape by then.

Working around this pulled muscle in my mid back has sucked. It's almost gtg, but I've had to be very careful with mostly lighter weight, higher reps on dang near everything. I've just not hit rows, which sucks because I love chest/back day. Yesterday I hit shoulders and arms and I'm a little sore today.

 

Finished up a good training week on Sunday. 80 degrees today. Ran/walked 6 miles. Was a little more difficult than I thought it would be...but at least I finished what I started.

 

75 Hard - Day 63 check-in. Down 22 lbs since the start. I'm really trying to get another 3 lbs in the next 12 days before I'm done. I want to hit that 25 mark.

Beyond that I'm still on a mission to get to 180 lbs. Currently sitting at 198.

Let's go!
