Today I continue my discussion of my goals for the next 365 days. Publish a paper book on fitness Most likely I will sell the book from my Get Back to Lifting companion site. Members will get a large discount on the book. Non-members will pay full price. I have not yet decided upon a price for this book. Look for this to happen late in the year in 2009. |

Today was another great workout. I am totally in love with H.I.T. I changed up my form on my Thigh Extensions and still managed to hit 210 lbs. and 12 repetitions. I got aggressive and raised my standing calf raises to 800 lbs. and still managed to hit 14 repetitions. I have to say that it was pretty ominous putting 800 lbs. on the sled and pushing it with just my calves. I upped my squat to 235 lbs. and managed 8 repetitions. I was a little disappointed in that effort, so off to the Quad Blaster to fix that issue! I grabbed the 55 lbs. dumbbell and cranked out 15 repetitions. My heart was pounding and my entire body was shaking. Next I hit my pullovers. I've been stressing with this exercise because it hurts my left tricep. I focused on being perfect with the form. Not only did the pain go away but I managed 4 more repetitions. Isn't it interesting how when you do something correctly it just gets better? The rest of the workout was just as good. The highlight for me was my deadlifts. I've been upping the weight in 5 and 10 lb. increments, but today I decided to go for 15 lbs. I put 300 lbs. on the bar and managed to pull 7 repetitions. It felt awesome lifting 300 lbs. off the ground. |

Please note that I've moved my workout days to Tuesday's and Friday's. Ever since the movement by one day of my workout last week, I didn't feel it was wise to come back on Monday with just 2 days rest, so I've extended it to Tuesday. |
||
Today was a rest day and rest I did. I did have to move around a ton of hockey equipment in my garage, but that doesn't count. |

M4:D66 (D366) One Year of Blogging!
Today marks my One Year Anniversary of Blogging and I am completely amazed. Have I transformed exactly how I wanted at the start? No, I have not. Have I made progress? Yes, in a major way! So much about me has changed in the past year. From mental, physical and emotional issues–everything has gotten stronger and better. Life in general has improved as a result of the actions I've personally taken over the past year. If you are just watching from the wings, I strongly suggest you get into blogging on a daily basis for accountability purposes. During this busy time period it would have been easy for me to fall off the wagon, but I know you are all out there looking for my posts and that keeps me motivated to write them. Microsoft Live Writer allows me to write the posts off line so they can be published later. It is a great tool! I am currently working on a few new ideas that will change the face of the fitness industry for those people who have information overload. The next 365 days will see this new idea come into reality. I hope to help millions of people as a result. I want to personally thank each and every one of you who comments on my blog regularly because without you, I would not be able to do the things that I do. I want to especially thank the following people: Adam Waters: RTP Blog 2.0Mike Groom: Aussie Bodybuilder These three have kept me on task throughout my journey without fail. Adam was the reason I started blogging in the first place. Carlos taught me the principles that have enabled me to gain muscle mass for the first time in my life and he will be coaching me to victory in a body building competition in 2009. Mike has been a wonderful friend and accountability partner to me during the past year. Thanks, guys! |

One hour of steady state cardio was on the menu for today. I did it in the hotel fitness center at 4 a.m. prior to lugging the hockey equipment to the rink for an 8:15 a.m. game. |
