hey i'm actually trying to get a corporate wellness program started here. but it's too late for this fiscal year. it just started and i couldn't get it into their budget on time. Has to go through HR since it'd be considered a benny.

we have a fitness room, and some people who work out or do some kind of exercise or diet or osmething, but nothing organized by the company. Would be cool to have some kind of incentive to get people going around here.

i won't stay here, regardless. I've got to bust out.

actually not at all. This girl came up to me, and asked me what i was doing because she thinks i look great. So in the course of conversation I said I'd gotten certified, but wasn't doing anything with it yet. She said, "I'm hiring you. I'm your first client. Set up an appointment with me, come up with a price and lets get started. I trust you."

I don't even have a "package" set up for clients yet. I am working on my trainer's business stuff! But she said that if I can put together a package, she has a bunch of friends lined up ready to hire me too. Imagine? So of course, this might just be the kick in the butt I needed to get started.

I hadn't wanted to "advertise" myself at work because I know people will be coming to me and calling and emailing during my work hours if I work with them. But maybe that's something I don't have to be worried about. I mean they have to work too! hahaha!

Thats AWESOME! You know, it's all timing and location!
This is YOUR time!
I'm sure things will work out. As far as being at work, if someone from there wants to get with you about your business, just tell them..politely that you can sechedule a meeting on ceffee breaks or afterwards. (don't wanna get in trouble with your employers)
I got 'briefed' a couple weeks ago for working on my real esate web site on a gov't work station. Someone thought I was dinking off instead of working. So..I go to go in front of my team lead and manager and set things straight. My work comes first, I was doing that in between taskings. And...I only do the work on my site on weekends so the uppity ups don't see it.
But, this can SO work out for you!

My split:

Tues and Fri: Chest, Back, Bis, Tris, abs, cardio
Wed and Sat: light abs and cardio
Sun: rest

Reps/Sets and Rest:

For legs and shoulders, I'd been doing four giant super sets, between 12-15 reps per exercise in each set. For chest and back, three giant super sets, 12-15 reps. Rest periods are 45-60 seconds between GS Sets.

Best of luck with your revamped training and diet -- Let me know when you start the new journal so i can check in on you! What are your goals this time around?
Cool, thanks so much for the reply!

My goal this time is to focus and to not let anything interfer with my training or diet. It has been pretty hard (as you know with my job), but I am determined to get results (still need to lower my bf%). I have a date set to achieve some good results...December 10th which gives me about 6 weeks. I'll be strict with everything so that I can be on my way to getting the body I want.

You'll be the first to know about my journal...I should start one this week. I'll be looking forward to your comments/suggestions.

Depends on some personal stuff.

Colorado is a top choice on my very short list of places to move to.

There are 64 pages in less than two months time my journal -- that is hard proof that it's possible.
