Hey good to see some people here into staying fit. I need to get back in the gym , used to go like 4 days a week but started having siezures a couple years ago and then just kind of lost interest. But feeling less energetic now compared to how great I felt when going to the gym regularly. I like to do some cardio to warm up then hit the weights, select muscle groups for different days. Need to get back into it. - Going to do 100 pushups right now- lol just got motivated!
 
I am thankful that my right shoulder has repaired so I am trying a new sport to improve the strength (and also to mix up my training a bit). I have been boxing for almost a month now and wondering how long until I start to see improvements :\

My ability to do push ups still suck though :(

I did 5 minutes of chest presses, where I would do a set of 20 reps on 90 lbs, and then repeat that 5-6 times, then move it down to 15 reps, 2-3 sets of that, then 1 final set of 10 reps, all in 5 minutes.

Then I did about the same thing with 300 graduating down to 200 lbs for seated leg presses.

I then had two scoops of whey protein and some food. MMM! =D
 
finally getting back in the water after a very big and scary winter followed by two months of 30 mph wind. had a nice hour session on some 2-3 footers. also caught my first wave on my new 6 foot short board.

love the ocean!!!!
 
Physical Therapy exercises: 1 hour
25 push-ups
45 min Ashtanga Yoga
2 hr hike
P/T cool down exercises (gentle stretching/pranayama): 30 min.

I just started a new movement program at my Pain Management Clinic. So we're learning Feldenkrais and Tai Chi. Acupuncture and acupressure from the HMO too. I'm finally getting something desirable from them, instead of offers of surgery and triple-disc epidurals.

Very psyched. I'm getting my physical self back.

Sat on my hole all day out of the rain, interrupted by about an hour of lifting dumbbells. :)
 
70 hand grips per hand, 20 min cycle. Will do a hundred or so sit ups later. Need to get back to push ups. At times i add a 40 pound backpack to my weight when doing push ups.
