Legs and Back, Ab Ripper and abbreviated Kenpo

Due to missing a workout on Thursday of this past week, walking a round of golf does not count, I decided to get 2 workouts in on Sunday. Instead of doing one in the morning and one in the afternoon like a sensible human would, I just lined it up back to back during nap time. Whoooeee! Not easy, especially after Legs and Back. Kenpo is f-ing hard as hell after Legs and Back. Did 45 natural pull ups during the course of the workout, up 6 from last week. I'm finally starting to sees one serious gains in strength in the pull up department. I've struggled with pull ups my whole life due to the laws of physiques and the laws of "I just didn't do them" Also, I've never really been able to see my abs due to diet and the laws of "I just didn't do them" but they're starting to peak through at the top of the ab region. Years of sweets and beer have created a formidable layer of insulation to hide them. Speaking of beer and diet, I had an interesting interaction with my boss after golfing on Thursday. We had just finished walking a challenging course, I parred the last hole and won closest to the pin, but that's not even the story. We sit down for lunch and I order their field greens salad with double chicken and an ice tea. It's not the biggest salad ever and as I finish every last bit of it, almost licking the plate clean, the table remarks at how hungry I must be. I say, I could eat 5 more of those. My boss looks at me and says, "You know, we all end up as the same dirt...at least I'm enjoy myself on the way." He's a bit of a large pear on tooth picks and was enjoying his beer as well. I wanted to quote Dean Wortimore and say "Fat, Drunk and Lazy is no way to go through life" but chose the high road and said, I am enjoying myself. I really am enjoying this program. I love the discipline needed for the diet and the challenge of working out every day and eating right every day. It is my new obsession. A lot healthier than some of my past obsessions and it may even help me live longer. Rest/ Stretch today.
