I know I've had a couple of these, most of them fell through.
We'll give it another shot.
Come the 21st of September, I'm moving to a smallish town about fourty minutes outside of Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota.
Blah, Blah, Blah, Gold's Gym 5 minutes from my new place, Costco 15 minutes,
etc.
Long story short Im going to start taking care of myself again.
Im starting this early so I can get some feedback, ideas, etc, or at least give myself some sort of credibility.
I plan to diet (gonna be cutting til Im satisfied, or until I go crazy) using TwinPeak's carb cycling, the basic format. I got pretty substantial results using it the last time I tried, and it's pretty easy to manage financially, physically, and mentally.
Im going to be using a reaaaaally basic resistance training program to get my body started back up again, using mostly freeweights, probably some machines for my legs, gotta get my major tendons and whatnot back in shape, gotta get my form back. 3 Days a week, at this point. HIT weights are a possibility, got good results from it, but we'll see.
I havent decided anything really firm for cardio yet, I enjoyed HIIT type training, and found it pretty effective, and didnt really need to plan anything out other than intervals. Running outside wont be much of an option, between my asthma and the temperature during the chillier months, I think Ill have some problems. I've heard there's a pool, which would be great for my overall conditioning.
Getting me an Ipod shuffle for workout music (im something of an audiophile), my main mp3 player is too bulky to fit in any of my workout gear, I.E. sweatshirt and basketball type shorts.
