Is Muscle Soreness A Sign of A Great Workout?

December 31, 2008

Inspired by a recent workout of mine, Rob and I had a discussion last night about muscle soreness.  I’ve been working back up to a former “best” of mine … a 700 lb leg press.  My leg workout on Sunday put me closer to that goal at 430 lbs, and I was expecting some seriously [...]

Go with the flow

December 30, 2008

I was watching something with Esther Hicks and she said that people just don’t know when to go with the flow (not exact words, but paraphrased) and her analogy was that she went on a rafting trip and out of all the rafts, no one there considered going upstream. Not even the slightest thought to [...]

Goals, Roles and Holes

December 29, 2008

In order to have a well rounded life, you have to have three aspects covered. One is your physical health, one is your mental health and the last is your spiritual health. All of these are impacted by those who surround you. An oft quoted phrase is that you are the average of the five [...]

Blast from the Past – Self Esteem and Transformation

December 28, 2008

Yesterday Deb asked me if I wanted to retain a website that was coming up for renewal. The site is my 10 minute transformation. The odd thing is that I pretty much had totally forgotten about this site. I didn’t even remember if I was using it or not; just thought it was a good [...]

Life Changing Events – Being a Catalyst

December 27, 2008

I’ve gone to some seminars and some ‘retreats’ and some camps. I’ve been to ‘major events’ and all of those have had impact on who I am as a person. For years growing up, my parents hauled me and my younger brother to these 4-day Jesus events in the Pocono mountains – thousands of people, [...]

Pinch Test

December 26, 2008

I have to get a pinch test and see where I am at with my body fat percentage. As a gut feeling (oh, man, that was not an intentional pun, but I can’t remove it once I type it) I think I am around 15% or so. It really is tough to tell and this [...]

Organization and Problem Solving

December 24, 2008

We only have 24 hours in a day, most days, so there has to be some degree of organization to what you do or you will have less quality output when the day is done. How do you organize yourself? Some people prefer a lot of structure and others fly by the seat of their [...]

Good Advice on Training

December 23, 2008

This morning I was doing my cardio, low speed 6.1 high speed 7.0 , mid speed 6.5. I did my two miles and a bit more and felt really good. Time flies, so I had to limit the run to that.

There was a woman running at the next treadmill and she had the ‘heavy feet’ [...]

Challenges, Persistence and Training

December 22, 2008

Today was a rough day as you may be able to tell from the late time on this entry. I had a 10 hour OSHA class to teach and had to start at 7am. Unfortunately the gym opens at 5 and between the commute to work and clean up time after my workout, I just [...]
