So I just wanted to share the new and improved home gym.
Week one down and 3 more weeks of the first month’s training to go!
Time for some upper body weights.

As I stare at the last page hanging on the wall calendar I wonder where this year has gone. So far 2009 hasn’t been all that bad for me. I have been lucky for the most part in my personal life compared to most Americans this year. I did though put my fitness goal on hiatus while I re focused my career priorities and with doing that I’ve relapsed into some bad habits. Habits I am not proud of and have been quite angry at myself about. I stood in front of the mirror last night assessing the damage I have done to myself over the past 5 months, measuring tape and all. Overall I have put back on almost 10 lbs and 1.5 inches to my waist, not good. My lack of interest in working out and bad eating has started dragging me back to my old ways.

I stood there and verbally told myself “It’s time to change, time to get back on track. I can do this and I will.” To my surprise, speaking aloud to myself actually helped my moral. It has been 2 years this month I started my body makeover. I achieved so much in that time by eating clean and working out that I can not give up because I’ve started to fall.

Today I have been good so far. I started my food journal again and in a few minutes I am starting a new weight/cardio plan from the January 2010 Oxygen magazine. I really want to stick to this and finish my final chapters of my body make over. I also want to get back to writing on this site more and give it a face lift.

I am not going to let this setback ruin what I have done so far, and I am not going down without a fight!
