Shannon (MrNiceGuy28431) on youTube released “our” video today. He put together raw footage I did a couple of weeks ago. He did a wonderful job with editing and I am really pleased at how well it turned out.

Had the high winds as promised last night and it was really, really cold this morning. Only about 4 hours sleep, up at 3:30A and at gym at 5A.

Good workout, the swings with the 32KG KB is my favorite.

Wednesday
Core Circuit – same as workout 1
Circuit – Repeat for 7 total sets with 1 minute rest between sets
1-Hand Kettlebell Swings
32 kg – 20 reps each….Increased Reps
Kettlebell Figure 8’s
24 kg – 15 each

Did my core workout, my right shoulder work, 7 sets of shoulder flyes, 20 minutes cardio and stretching. A full two hours.

I went back to January 9th where I made the following entry:

1-Hand Kettlebell Swings 32 kg – 15 reps each (at this rate I am sure to get to 20 by my Birthday)

Well, today I did 7 sets at 20 each arm. (That comes up to 19,600 pounds) I reached my goal in just 3 weeks. This is one of the nice things about keeping a record of what you are doing.

Monday (Exciting News!)

That’s right, there is exciting new here. I slept for eight full hours last night! That is the first time that has happened for what seems to be years. In bed at 9P, went right to sleep, woke up at 5A.

Off to the gym, got there at 5:30A. Monday is a really hard workout day. I did really well. Did have to take a little extra rest and break up some of the Snatches but everything got done. Did my shoulder work and sholuder flyes and cardio. Did not stop sweating for the entire 1 1/2 hours workout. The 200 snatches really mess with the callous on my hands. By the end they are really burning.

Monday
Core Circuit – Repeat 3 times with no rest, 15 lb – 12 each x 4 SH Flyes.
Circuit – Repeat for 5 total sets with 2:30 minute rest between sets
Kettlebell Turkish Get-Up
8 kg – 5
Kettlebell Snatch
24 kg – 20 each

Make sure you check out Sean Symons new Bodyforlifestyle.com website. Looks like it has real potential.

Thursday

I was up at 3A. Went down to the sofa, still no sleep. Flipped on the TV and out I went. Woke up at 5A. DID NOT WANT TO GO WORKOUT. I just wanted to lay there. I kept trying to make deals with myself. I could go tonight, I already did one extra workout this week, it’s ok. Finally at 6A I just MADE MYSELF GETUP, put on my workout shorts, stumbled out the door and went to the gym.

Once at the gym I just started working like a speed deamon. I did my five sets and worked in the shoulder flyes during the rest time, meaning I did not rest at all.

Thursday
Core Circuit – same as workout 1
Circuit – Repeat for 5 total sets with 1 minute rest between sets
Kettlebell Lateral Lunge
28 kg – 20 reps each leg
Rope Biceps Curls 160 lbs. – 10 reps
Rope Triceps Pushdowns 160 lbs. – 10 reps
Face Pulls 100 lbs. – 8-10 reps

In the end I am really glad I went. I know the reality is I could miss a workout and life would go on. I also know that if I miss one workout, missing the next one will be twice as easy. My workouts are my priority. They are how I start my day. They are what I do. This was not a perfect workout in that I did not do my light weight shoulder exercises and I did not do my 20 minute cardio, but it was 100% better than laying on my ass.

Weight was 242. I don’t even want to talk about that.

Insurance adjuster stopped by yesterday to look at the truck. Last time I had a claim I took the vehicle to be looked at. I guess things have changed. They come to the vehicle.

Last night I hooked my cable up to my new PC. Now I can work on my blog, watch YouTube, watch TV all at the same time. Could I become over stimulated?

Angela (thinby40) took her blog down. Not sure what is up with that yet.
