Over the last few days I've kept up a routine of 1,000 skips on the jump rope, 500/200 crunches, 1 round of 40 minutes on the punching bag, 100 leg lifts, 10x2 bicep curls, 10 overhead barbell lifts, 10 shoulder lifts, 50 butterfly chest lifts, etc. Also since Tuesday, I'm back on my superfood smoothie/fruit/live food live-it (diet).

Thanks for the motivation all. I have allowed myself to be in the worst shape ever. Although I had to struggle to end some  bad habits, I allowed others to sneak in! However, the good thing is that the body is great at forcing adaptation to change. I'M ON IT DOG-ON-IT!

Staying close to my fitness challenge target weight and getting over my fear of getting too light (weight classes exist for a reason). I'm seriously considering dipping into the 160s.

Been staying around 229-232.   Gonna change up the routine a little to adjust for the cold weather by the time I get home.

No jokes here) 500 crunches, 3 x 20 leg to full body raises, 10 bench presses, 10 bicep curls, 10 overhead shoulder presses, 10 side tricep lifts, 10 side shoulder lifts, 10 overhead tricep lifts, 10 on the ab roller.

My stats today:

Full body workout using muscle index weight (185lbs)
All movements done to exhaustion using the above weight with a 2 minute rest interval
-squats= 13
-deadlifts= 12
-Chin up= 15
-bench press= 11
-over head press= 16 (only using 90lbs)
-one mile run= 10 minutes 40 seconds

I don't like running but it is one of the best measures of stamina and endurance. (Running is horrible for the joints of individuals with high body mass indexes)
GOAL: to run a mile in 9 minutes; complete all body weight lifts for 20 total reps per exercise....and be able to slay ten men with my bare hands!!!(I ain't a gangster but don't push me)

ABIBIFAHODIE!!!

The last time I worked out was 2 weeks ago, and luckily I've maintained my weight. I'm going to hit the gym for 2 hours today and work on the bags for 30 minutes in the evening.
