28 in 08
28 yrs old is not ancient, but being out of shape is starting to make me feel that way. So this is my journal to keep me acountable.
A little about me, was very thin as a kid, lazy and chunky as a teenager, played some sports and started weight lifting/jogging in college so was fairly in shape again. About two years ago I started working shift work out of town, no close gym access, didn't have time to play sports anymore, and have a very easy job where there is tons of food around = gaining 50 lbs. Now I did realize this was happening (how could you not when you need to buy new clothes every few months), but only made a few half-hearted efforts before going back to being busy at work and eating whatever I wanted.
The Plan
Do the women's challange, follow NROL4W through the whole book after I get back from vacation, learn how to cook healthier meals (I love to cook, but it resembles more barefoot contessa then anything healthy).
I have collected a treadmill, exercise bike, natilus gym, and some free weights the last few years so now I just need to use them.
So next years goals are obviously to change my body composition, run a 5K, get my lifts back to where they were 110 lb chest press and whatever a 200lb smith squat would equal in a barbell squat now that I now about free weights, maybe 120 lbs.
