I've started a new journey, which will include 'Back to Basics' fitness information, but will focus more on one man's journey into retirement after a marriage of 39 years ended and how that has affected preparation for, and the continuing life after such a life changing event.
I expect it to be fulfilling, funny, and always interesting. I suspect there may be some useful information along the way, but don't count on it. I plan for it to entertain me. I hope it does you.

I just never got the 'beer' thing...
Wednesday, December 12, 2012
I made it back to the
park for a Survival Workout...something about which I’ve been negligent over
the pasta several weeks.I was feeling
reasonably healthy...the cold is lingering...but otherwise okay.I decided with Kim and Savannah coming home
soon and likely asking to do the workout with me, that I needed to blast myself
a couple of times.
I started with 82
decline push-ups and felt pretty good about the effort.I went on to do 21 different exercises,
including some sprinting and uphill running.I returned to the car arm weary, knowing it was a good start.
I wanted to put some
time on the trainer afterwards, but needed to stop at Heinen’s to pick up some
Christmas Ale from Great Lakes Brewing for my brother.I was heading to his house for dinner and a
birthday celebration and know how much he likes the stuff...which I find
disgusting.Since everyone in my family
going back to the Paleolithic era enjoys beer, I can only think that my DNA got
messed up and the beer thing passed me by.I hate the smell mostly, but gag on the taste, too.I suppose it’s okay, but sometimes I want to
like it since it looks so good.Anyway,
I made my purchase but by the time I got home, I didn’t have enough time to
ride AND be on time for dinner.I’m
hoping I’ll be able to fit a double in tomorrow.I need one.
Survival Workout: 60 minutes. Training Heart Rate: 100-150. Calories burned:600.
I have been in the business of helping people achieve their fitness related goals since 1983.
I have conducted over 10,000 fitness tests and consultations during that period and believe more strongly than ever that when you understand where you are, have reasonable goals and expectations and a roadmap to get there, you can achieve anything.
