One Mans Quest

I'm a fifty two year old guy who started going to the gym about four years ago in the hopes of reengineering my body mind and life. I've not really lost weight, but I have managed to get my body fat down to less than 10% which is surprising. I can't imagine a life without exercise now, but to stay focused it's necessary to constantly mix things up and make it challenging and fun. These blogs are some of the things I've learned- what has worked, what hasn't and some of the wacky ways I've found to stay fit. enjoy!

Disclaimer! please read!- I'm not a trainer, and certainly don't profess to be ay kind of expert, I'm writing about my personal experiences and highly recommend that if you want to try my routines, you consult a professional trainer.

Improvised work-out

So I've been on vacation and haven't gotten to the gym for over a week now. I've been working out using whatever I can find including everything from doing Russian twists using a small bolder to squats while holding a cast iron lawn chair.

It's amazing want you can still accomplish and I feel pretty wiped out from the hour I spent this morning. It may not have been a mega muscle work-out, but it sure worked my core.

No running lately though since I messed up my calf using those barefoot shoes. It was my own stupid fault for not breaking into it slowly.
