Core Synergistics is tough

I hate it, but I love it. That workout is so killer. I did however allow me to take this picture. I'm not saying I'm ripped or anything, but it's the first time I've every felt good enough to take a pic like this. Man this workout is money from minute one to the end. An old college friend and Steve McKnight and I are going to workout today so I don't know what to call this week. Heavy lifting with Steve on Monday, X-Stretch on Tuesday, Core Synergistics Wednesday (which is a very hard workout as previously explained) and I'm sure we'll bring it today. Maybe next week will be a true recovery week . . .

X Stretch comes through again!

Well after hurting myself 2 days ago I decided to take a recovery week and start with X-Stretch. Wow, does that work well. I woke up and my neck felt terrible. I did the whole hour of X-Stretch and felt up to 90% or so. That is some seriously quick recovery.

Ouch!!

Well, I was a dummy today and injured my neck doing kick-butt "corn cobb" pull-ups while trying to out-do Steve McKnight in a joint workout today. First off I didn't stretch enough and secondly I didn't listen to my body when I first felt a bit of a pull. Thirdly it was supposed to be a recovery week but I wanted to do a fun workout with my friend. I would have been alright had I not made my first 2 mistakes. I think I'll start recovery week tomorrow and jump right back in next Monday!

P90X Legs and Back still a killer

Man 0 man o manashevitz. It doesn't matter how many times I do P90X Legs and Back it still kicks my butt, but in a great way. What a great workout. The primal diet is still going great too! I highly recommend it so far!

Primal Diet Day 6

About a week ago or so my good friend and my personal coach Steve McKnight (knightfit.com) lent me a book called the The Primal Blueprint. After reading the book in about 2 days I decided to give it a try. It's basically a program about eating and exercising like our ancestors did. It makes a lot of sense so I'm giving it a try (especially in the eating department). So far so good. I'd be happy to fill you in on any of the details of the plan. Just drop me a line.

My New Blog

Hi All,

I'm a new Beach Body coach and I started this blog to show everyone what I'm up to. I'll try and post my workouts and eating habits every day. Also, I've put a few banners of some of the programs I've used to get fit. I've enjoyed my time getting fit and healthy so much that I'm happy to coach anyone who needs a little help, motivation or encouragement absolutely free. Just drop me a line.

Biceps, Triceps, Shoulders and Arms + Abs

Yesterday was a great workout day. I really feel like I'm "feeling" my muscles more than ever. By that I mean that I'm getting the most out of each rep by concentrating on having great form. I'm using a little lighter weights and really focusing to make each rep count. I think it's a much more effective way to workout. Hopefully it pays off!
