Feelin' the HEAT!
Ok...new day, new journal.
I'm fat. Don't have measurements, but I can barely fit into my clothes. even my newer 'fat' clothes'. REALLY not happy about it. The scale tipped at about 224 the other afternoon. The pic in my avatar is me at 182lbs. (My target weight) The math says: 42lbs to strip off. I want it off by my December trip to Cozumel. That will be 42 pounds in 6 months. 7 pounds per month loss. Is this possible...it's not...IMPOSSIBLE...but will be hard for me. But, I can do it. I am consisstant in the gym again, and I am starting into boxing / kick boxing next week. I'm going w/ my 'CYCLE II' program for the next 7 weeks: Monday and Thursday: Legs / Back / Bis Wednesdays off Tuesday and Friday: Chest / Delt / Tris day 1: Squats, SLDL Pull Ups, BB or DB Rows BB Curls, Preacher Curls day 2: bench press, Flyes Military press, upright rows CGBP, Skull crushers day 4: Deads, front squats pull downs, cable/machine rows Alt. db curls, cable curls day 5: incline bench press, decline bench press side lateras, front laterals, rear laterals dips, tricep extensions ***gonna do 4 working sets for all exercises, except the laterals; 2-3 sets per boxing shall be 3 or so days per week. My biggest obsticle shall be food...gonna have to really work on reeling that back into healthy... So, stay tuned for today's workout...tomorrow. Oh...not too much whorring in this journal, please. Thanks!

Solid looking workout, man!
Are you doing just simple 3x10 with 1-3 min. RIs (or something like that)? Are you doing anything special. I wanted to lose weight, the short RIs, heavy weight, and biking have really helped me to drop the weight. I've lost about 14 pounds (and 2 inches off the gut) in four months or so. |

Best wishes on your goal my Friend, I have faith in ya!!! Can I suggest cutting down the volume though (not just cause I'm not into volume) but because of the punishment and abuse you will take w/ kickboxing 3 or more days a week, don't want to overtrain and hurt yoursel!!! Just my 2 cents my Friend, not trying to ignorant!!!

Good luck buddy! I can't believe you have a new journal, that other one had so many hits, it was like a God among Gods, well ok, not really, but it was one impressive run in that journal, that's for sure!
And boy, if 2 exercises is too much volume, I dunno what to say man

A new journal from Burner! Kewl. 7 lbs a month may be a little much. Shoot for 1-1.5 lbs a week, like DD said 'slow and steady'.
You probably know about Fitday, but if not, sign up. It is a great free tool. |

Hey man new scenery means no time to slack its KICK ASS TIME! Dont think of slackin off here b/c I'm kickin it into overdrive w/ ya! I got 13lbs to go. If I of all people can do it you can too!
I'm down to 183 from 224 mi amigo!! I want 170 and damnit I WILL HIT IT! Theres no id like to I'm going to and the only person that has a chance of standing in my way is myself and that just aint gonna fly! So its go time mike! Just keep the diet in check and dont bite off to much just yet...take it slow. This is a marathon not a sprint. Shoot your load to soon and there is no reserve for the final length. Start your pace now and build up in the weeks to come!

hey!

Stayed in pretty much all day Saturday...miserable w/ my allergies...Sunday was at an open house...no prospects... Have had a bugger of a time finding wrestling shoes for boxing. Evidently...only are sold seasonally? So next month they should be stocked. Am gonna try and use my Ottomix lifting shoes till I can get what I need.

NIIIICE!!!!!!!! A journal by Burnsy? SWEEEET! SWEET ASS SWEET!!!
 It's terrible how we are always our own worst critics. But being as it may, we are. You are always going to see yourself worse that you are. But only you know how you feel. Only you know what you would like to look like. And only you know what you can and ARE WILLING to do. I have been your biggest cheerleader for so long Mike and you know I love ya darlin'....but it is time for you to do something for yourself. You've been so busy for so long working on work and housing and all of this other stuff just to live. It is time to do something solely for yourself. I believe your goals are realistic. I believe they are attainable and I DON'T think that 7 pounds in a month is too much to ask. I've done it, plenty of people have done it. Don't stress about it. As far as the food goes, just know that you CAN make a healthy choice anywhere and everywhere you go. Every single place on earth now has some sort of a chicken salad or steamed veggies and everyone has chicken or turkey. Just remember that you DO eat healthy, you WILL eat healthy and anything else is just wrong. The better you feel about yourself, the better you'll feel about your diet, the wiser choices you will make. I can't wait to hear all about your workouts that you ARE GOING to do and all about how wonderful you're feeling.
All the glory to God! We have a baby on the way.

"probably rotating your wrists, this is an up/down movement for your delts/traps, should not involve your wrists other than holding on. Am I right DB/Arch?"
--hey! You ROCK! That's why u are my most favoritist Texan! My form was spot on...but wrist did not much like the cambered bar. I may try it w/ oly bar...but think that would be more tension on the wrist...
