Two Weeks Down - Personal Training at John's Gym

You're not in shape until you get with a Personal Trainer! I've played basketball in High School and College, and done Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for over a year and a half. I thought Jiu Jitsu was the hardest thing I've done, personal training takes the cake. Speaking of cake, that sounds good right now.
This week we started doing more explosion exercises followed by lifting heavy weights. The explosion exercises have kicked my butt, it's the little muscles you don't ever think about that are getting worked over.
Oh, I started with a Body Fat of 17%, so let's see where it goes after these 90 days!

One Week Down! - Personal Training at John's Gym

Who am I kidding, this personal training stuff is hard hard! Every workout gets tougher and tougher, but I love it. I love knowing that in 90 days I'll be more fit and feel better. I ate some delicious meals on my cheat day this week (French Toast at the Paggi House and Home Slice Pizza on S. Congress), but afterwards I felt horrible and wanted to sleep. I was actually eager to get on my eating routine come monday morning...even if the first thing to eat is 5 eggs.
However, one week is down! Only 11 more to go, I can definitely do this!

DAY 1 of John's Gym Challenge - Personal Training at John's Gym

We're calling it the John's Gym Challenge "90 Days to a New You" because if you can complete this challenge to the letter, you'll see dramatic changes in your life. Sounds good, right? Well I'm going to go first to prove it.

I've started today, November 8, 2010, on the journey to change how physically fit I am. I don't think I'm fat. Just, um...alittle soft around the edges.

This isn't just about me though, not in the least! It's about you AND I, yeah, you. This blog isn't for everyone, it's for those that want to change the way they feel, want to be more fit, and/or want to lose those few extra pounds. It's about US. Some need a push to get going, some just need a nudge, others need to see that it's possible before they try: So I'm going first.

Travis Waggoner, one of our personal trainers at John's Gym, has developed a workout and eating regimen for me to follow for 90 days. He's done this before, I haven't.

This Blog is going to be somewhat revealing. I'm going to post pictures of progress, you're going to see me struggle too. I'll show you my daily workout routine and my eating routine for these 90 days. I know it's going to be a funny 90 days, feel free to laugh at me :-), but most of all I hope it INSPIRES you to make the change in yourself.
