Well, at the invitation of Newman, and inspired by SpacecityPaula, I've created this training log to coincide with my entry in the 61 day challenge. Here goes nothing!

Nutritional Goal: Follow the principles of Abs Diet and NROL clean eating. Out of the 122 half-day increments, I hope to do at least 80% -- I typically have a cheat lunch during the week, but have been doing fairly well otherwise. Shooting for 80% means 97 clean half-days.

Fitness Goal:
I'm currently using NROL in the midst of FL 1. I plan on finishing FL 1 and moving to FL 2, then following NROL's "eternal beginner" sequence after that.


Therefore, goals are to lift 3 times per week and walk twice a week (I tried doing HIIT early on in break-in and injured myself, so I've decided to stick with walking until I shed some more weight. Bonus personal goal is to start working in HIIT once a week by the end of this challenge).


Personal Goals:

I'm currently in the 52-day challenge over on the Men's Health boards, so I'll incorporate those two goals here:
Goal 1: Finally do a pullup.
Goal 2: Drop 10 more pounds, down to 224.

New Goal 3 (it's a stretch!): Get into 36 inch waist jeans. (I started from 42 inch jeans, now down to very tight 38 inch -- it's a long shot, but it's possible.)

Competitive Goal

I've never participated in ANY public event, so this one will be completely new to me. I'll have to look around for something to join in -- my plan is to not do it alone, but get my wife and kids involved too. It will be good for all of us!

A little about me: I'm a 38 year old husband and father of four. Started at 265 in March and I'm down to 234 now. I'm 6' 0", and can't remember the last time I was under 220 pounds (high school??). Long term goal is to hit 185 -- I know it can be done.

So, that's it folks -- thanks for inviting me to be a part of this group! Best wishes for success to all!
