So I have restarted again, how many time have you heard that right…I decided as an accountability measure I needed to start blogging daily on my progress and failures.

Day 1: Core Synergystics. This workout was pretty tough, but at the same time I love the way it makes me feel. All day I was able to feel like my core was tight, my back was straight, and my posture was good. The workout consists of quite a bit that I will detail out next week as to ensure this post does not end up 500 pages long.

Day 2: Cardio-X. It is just what it says it is, Cardio. This workout has a good mix of Plyometrics, Yoga, and Kenpo that keeps the heartrate up for almost the entire workout. I love the rush I get from this one as well.

Day 3: Arms and Shoulders + Ab-ripper-X: The arm workout just blows your arms and shoulders up, I was exhausted by the time I was finished. The ab-ripper is gonna take me some time to get worked up to the whole thing. I was able to do about 15 reps of 3 exercises this morning before I had to stop.

All in all I think that so long as I take my weight loss in small chunks and keep pushing play I should be okay. I think the Power 90 X workout is what is going to take me to where I want to be.

Kindra and I started our new diets and workouts today. I was not able to complete the P90X workout completely, but that will come with time I think. The workouts are excruciating for me being this fat. I weighed myself when I got to work and realized I have broken the 300 mark, that does not sit well with me at all. Being this heavy reminds me of when Austin was born. Oh well that is what the diet and exercise are for I reckon.

Got to see Rhiannon this weekend, that was amazing. We did nothing all day but drive around and goto lunch, but being able to spend time with her is one of my favorite things. I am going to work to make sure that she and I can see each other more. I want to start watching her wrestle and attend some of her band stuff. I think that now that she is older she understands the situation a bit better and can see why I do things the way I do. I think this is the start of a great thing in our relationship, which is fantastic because I miss her so much. She is my baby girl.

School is going good, some of these problems really work my brain and force me to figure out the way to solve them which I like. It is so funny how hard Math like this is when you have not done this type of thing for 20 years. I know in time this will get easier.

Things are going well, life is good.

So I have decided after some very wise counsel that I am not ready for the level of competition that is Crown Tournament. I am not financially, emotionally, or physically ready for something of that magnitude. There are so many things to consider in being Sovreign that I don’t believe that 1/2 the people who enter ever think about. You are responsible for so much stuff and in that so much money that I don’t know that I will ever want that responsibility.

I restarted Power90X (again) and I am on Day 3, I am sore but happy. Kindra and I are really motivated to get fit and get back to the bodies that we should have. I am looking forward to the first cycle and even more to the end of the second cycle. I hope in 6 months to have the body I have always wanted and look the way I should have always looked. Only I can make that happen! I want this and need this!

I am also working up a workout for the pell and for the boy to work on. I really want him to succeed, I just am not comfortable being made to feel like a father figure, I said I would help him get his armour together and help him learn to fight. Putting me in the situation of hollering at him for one thing or another is not really within my comfort zone.

I start school tonight. I am still a bit apprehensive, but that is just my nature. I have never been one for new situations, but I always seem to get through them okay and end up making friends along the way. This semester is is easy, just one math class. Next semester I will probably do two, depends on how the load affects me. Should not be to bad though. I have been thinking that Psychology may be the way for me to go. Nothing says I have to do it all at once, I can start with a BA and then go for a MA if I decide to persue that path. Only time will tell.

Other then that, Kindra got her cast off, she is still pretty irritated that she cannot immediately move it and make it do her bidding, but that will just take time.
