Happy New Year everyone. I made class on Tuesday and Wednsday this week and I had a blast. I am rebuilding upper body strength that I lost when I had the flu. This the time of year when I am the weakest. The holidays are when I lose fitness. Has been this way for a long time, since I fought fire. After the new year the body will bounce back nicely. Looking forward to the new year.

Merry Christmas! The holidays are here and I made class this week. Once the holiday season is over training resumes in earnest. I lost a fair amount of muscle tone when I was sick. It will take a little time to put it back on. I can't wait for the new year.

Hello, I spent the last week sick with the flu. Man was that a drag, the only thing good that came from being sick was that I lost some more weight. I am down to 214lbs. now. Now it is time to build  muscle

I had a good time in class Thursday, I wanted to do more, but baby steps right now.

I will do more next week.  See you in class!

This last week was taken up with illness in our home, my wife was ill and I spent time taking care of her. Happy to report that she is doing much better. Not so happy I seem to have caught what she had.

On Thursday however I was able to be at Jan's test for her black belt, I was so proud of her. A good time to be sure.

As soon as I feel better I will be back at it. I hope to be back this Tuesday.

Hello, last week I didn't post a blog. Bad weather and family in town.I am 5 lbs. heavier from thanksgiving, and so I am working on taking the extra weight off ASAP.
I am still well motivated and very excited for next year. My mom leaves town tomorrow, and I will miss her, but training will continue.
