My Excercise

I come from a long line of big folks! My saving grace over the years is that I always find some way to exercise. From when I was working 12/hr days at HFC to 1.5 hour days at Holiday Inn to now. A few years back I learned and embraced the concept that high intensity and form are more important than frequency and weights. That being said, because I have been so inconsistent with sticking with a regimen, I have not really made strides in elevating to the next level. Example:

Bench - about 210 (pre-bum shoulder)
HIT - Level 10, 50 seconds high
Swimming (freestyle) - 2 laps max nonstop
Jogging -3 miles, 6mph

I'd like to make a personal goal of besting these caps (not busting these caps).

For one thing, doing the High Intensity Interval Training makes me lose weight fast (if my diet is not trashed) but it is very noticeably more difficult when I put the pounds on. Caffeine or not, it is so much easier when I am lighter. Combine the fact that as a obese man, my weight fluctuates weekly AND that I am running on level 10 for a minute...I am going to explode my heart into a pile of stewed tomatoes if I am not reeeeal careful here.

Good news, is I had lab work, testing done, at Kaiser and have a healthy heart - for now.

I gotta be there for my kids so lets work on the exercising efficiency along with the diet.
