seeing red

gym show. good time.

the treadmill went a lot better than expected. ran for 25 minutes. changed speeds. did a good warmup, cranked it up for a bit, then cooled down. it was a solid run. my right foot is not feeling good. feels like the buildup on the top of my foot is pulling tendons or muscles too tight across my foot. i am going to go get it checked out sometime next week.

getting off the treadmill was pretty weird. kind of like getting off a trampoline and trying to jump. so i "glided" around the gym for a few minutes.

went upstairs and stretched and then did my situps and pushups.
2x17 crunches
2x15 tacos
2x5 hesitate pushups
3 pullups on the i-beam

3x8 of dumbell incline press
3x10 calf raise with 15 lbs. in the same hand as the foot being raised. (right calf, right hand)

rest

5 minutes traversing on the wall
4 climbs on the wall, about 40 minutes.

went home. recovery drink (powder) and dinner.

the food log starts on saturday, so i will be checking that with my workouts. don't really want to type the food stuff, keep that in a seperate journal.

still not feeling great. got a cough still. oh well.

starting to get pumped about going to the gym and working out. still feel like an idiot because i don't have a great idea of what i am doing.

keep working. let's be sweet.

children with pockets of money to spend

stupid kids and their songs during music class.

so, joined a gym. rock climbing wall, all the weight and cardio stuff. it should be a lot of fun. first time i have ever joined a gym.

december 1st will mark the day i am going to start to think about officially getting back into shape. i am going to start keeping a food diary and also start back up with regular posts that will detail my workouts, how my body feels, how it is responding or not responding to the workouts, and an attempt to get me pumped up for ultimate again. the last part shouldn't be too hard, but it can't hurt to get more excited.

horn!

everything's gonna be allright

alicia keys is a baller. recognize.

so, it's been about a month and a week since regionals.

physically, i have gained only a few pounds, lost about 3% body muscle to fat. overall, very happy with that. work has been weird. i really need to dedicate myself to it, but i don't feel it. it is a weird kind of lazy. not sure how to diagnose it. i don't hate my job, but i don't love it. oh well, that's life. might be a little bit better if it didn't happen in a basement.

started hydrating again and already i can't wait to give it up again. weird.

re-reading some past posts, i am proud of what i did last year. i am really looking forward to training a little bit different/better for next year. i am not sure what i am doing for ultimate next year. heard of some rumblings but i have not really started thinking about that. i already miss the training and playing.

i am thinking about training already, and i am not ready to start again yet. it is going to be tough to match what i did last year, but i know i will be ready to it.

i want to play. i hate not playing ultimate.

also, super pumped to coach.

ultimate. jesus christ, it's not even a real sport.
