I've decided this year that i'm going to actually stick to my New Year's resolution and shed these unwanted pounds that keep creeping back to my mid section. I'm one of those people that am basically always on a diet, although I cheat most of the time. I yo-yo up and down. Over the past 3 years I've been everywhere from 200 down to 168. At a mere 5'8", 200 lb's is none too flattering. Right now I'm floating around 192 or so. I just turned 31 in August, and with the desk job I have it's difficult to keep the metabolism at the level it was 6 years ago.
About a week ago, I came across a website, http://mensworkoutguide.com, and this guy Arnel has a 16 week program that lays out a workout for you over 16 weeks. He gives you the exact excercises, how to perform them and how often. He gives recommendations for meals and the type of cardio you should do. I'm super excited about starting this program. I'm using this blog to keep myself motivated. I figure if other people are actually seeing my goals and measuring my progress with me I'll be more inclined to keep up with the program. Anyhow, it's 20 til twelve on the 16th of December. Only 15 days until I begin. I'll be doing some basic exercises between now and then, so I don't absolutely kill myself the first week, and want to quit before I really get into it.
Hopefully, I can motivate others to do the same thing as well. I'm trying to convince my wife to do this with me. We'll see.
