I did it! I actually walked out my front door, made it across my driveway, and entered my gym. I thought that I would never again find the motivation, courage, and energy for this kind of all-out assult on my will power.
The plan was to lift a bunch of heavy weights followed by dragging the sled around my track wich is roughly a quarter mile. As it turned out, I lifted a few moderately heavy weights followed by a jog/walk/wheeze/limp around the track. Afterwards, I retreated to the house where I spent the next 20 minutes trying not puke. Man have I got a long road ahead of me. Oh well. It got up to like 90° yesterday so it was nice to lift in shorts and a tee-shirt again. Got a mad sweat on.
Box squats:
WU
315 x 10 x 3
Some other crap times three or four.
"Run" 1/4 mile

Awesome, dawg. It's good to see a post from you. i thought mebbe you'd resigned yourself to ignominy and a Howard-like fate of balding hyperlipidemia.
i'm with you: i went all day without a shirt on yestern, and i'm gettin' real into synthesizing some vitamin D. Keep up the cardio. Last i checked, i've lost exactly no lbs, but if i go today, i'll have run 2.5 hrs this week. It does feel good to get more than a block without sucking wind and fighting off the black stars. And i've noticed it doesn't take long to see some big gains when you're starting from "nearly dead/bedrest" fitness.
Let's see some PRs, brutha'. i wanna pull some numbers down, m'self. i went bouldering the other day on real rock, and it kicked butt.
I ordered your holds from Teknic yesterday. the chick finally called me back and took my money. But I realized she never asked for a shipping address so they'll end up at my house. I have virtually no use for tiny crimpers, so perhaps we can hook up one of these days and I'll hand them off.
Thou rockest, true. Guess that's some incentive to bring the littl'un down there to meet you people.
We were seriously considering coming up this weekend. Brody decided to get himself an ear infection and my car broke down on the way to work this morning. Bad juju all around.
