last night

So, the GF and I had an interesting email exchange last night. Let's just say that when I get and stay under 210lbs, there's a special treat for both of us.

I try to get there at least four times a week. My goals are to get on the elliptical and do 800 calories in 40 minutes. I get the old ticker up to 160bpm. My resting heart rate is now between 57 and 60 bpm. After 40 minutes on the elliptical, I hit the weight machines and do abs, arms, and back. I try to add 10lbs to each machine a week. So if I am doing sets of presses at 110,120,and 130 pounds next week I will do 120,130, and 140 pounds.

After that it is sauna and steam room time!

Impressive!!! Now, that's what I'm talking about!!! I had my ticker up to 150bpm on Wednesday. At present, I'm doing the weight machines first and then I get on the elliptical for the balance of my time. I got serious about the weight machines about 3 weeks ago and I can definitely tell the difference.

Everyone needs to go check out the crossfit games on espn3.com right now. It's pretty ridiculous.

I worked out at Monkey Bar Gym (Monkey Bar Gym Madison | Monkey Bar Gymnasium) 10 years ago -- before Crossfit became popular. I really liked it, except being locked into a schedule and the expense.

However, I'm willing to this type of workout another shot.

How did you determine your body fat percentage?

Dude, Im thinking more than less of these women woud shy away from a side by side comparison pick situation with that girl,
"put her to shame"....... In Memphis? Didn't really notice many of that type whenever i was there.
Its a subjective thing--every guy has his type, some like big solid built blondes--blonds in general dont really do anything for me. I know gentlemen prefer Brunettes, And I like tacos Spicy!

LOL --- Agree.

There are a lot of people who live here that are NOT from here; however, if you look at my location, you will see I don't actually live in Memphis. And from this pic, you can tell I live in a decent neighborhood:

Present GF is from west Texas, grew up on a farm, and is not blonde. Do I need to say anything else? And no, I'm not posting a pic of her.
