Great Wednesday Morning! So in the spirit of letting this group’s name resonate with me, I want to touch on calling myself out on my own *kitten* and what has helped me. With self-awareness, I like to marry realization with action. I feel thinking too much will foster doubt and excuses. When I realize I am bullshitting, I like to start moving and getting momentum. See it, plan it, and start. -Again, Happy Wednesday, SR.
Cardio: Kickboxing
Strength: Chest press, Push ups, Tricep dips, and Tricep kickbacks
Assessment: Slept great. My legs are sore from the 6 miles a couple days ago, but I like to think of it as: wow, it’s been a couple days since you been to the park; so you need to get outdoors again soon. I am also looking forward to summer. I am a big outdoors person and love nature. If possible I want to plan a hike, maybe camp/find a cabin, as well as swim and get some sun. - In which I am contemplating getting some winter supplements, particularly Vitamin D.
P.S. If anyone know if CBD gummies are worth trying, holler at me. I researched reviews and they were favorable. I also have a friend who says he religiously use them. Thoughts welcomed.0 -

Happy Thursday! It's New Year's Eve! Like all the other celebrations though, this one will just be with my family only. But here's to looking to a new start in 2021 and new aspirations and goals!!!
Cardio: walk/jog- 90 minutes (500 calories)
Strength: biceps- cable curls at 3 different angles 4x12,10,8,6
Assessment: Chicken adobo with rice and vegetables. My workout was good yesterday, but the rest the day I didn't do much. I was supposed to work on the washer, but decided on doing a load before taking it apart again. So it looks like today I'm going to do that.

Last morning of 2020! Well this is exciting to say. I am excited for the New Year. Nonetheless, it is a workday as usual.
Strength & Cardio: I will honestly say no to both of these today as I have a relaxing evening planned.
Assessment: 1/1/2020 through 12/30/2020 - Absolute success as far as diet and exercise. There were also possible changes personally, professionally and financially. Aside from the COVID-19 crisis, I was very fortunate, experienced a lot of growth and enjoyed the hard work and grind through it all.
P.S. I noticed that the hard work and consistency are done alone and in the background so people overestimate how easy producing results are. Manifestation looks like magic to couch potatoes, and a majority of the time there is no changing that/them.

Happy TGIF and Happy New Year! Another year past and I can honestly say that though financially and work wise it was a down year for me, physically it was a success because I lost 40lbs during the shutdowns. I'm in one of my better shapes in my life and have been more consistent with workouts and cardio. But still want to lose another 15lbs max.
Cardio: jog/walk- 3 miles (350 calories)
Strength: triceps- pressdowns, cable overhead extensions, cable kickbacks, cable dips. 4x12,10,8,6
Assessment: Flanken short ribs, shrimp, salad and rice for my last 2020 meal. I also indulged more than usualy with some dried mango pieces and actuallly ate a whole pint of ice cream. But hey, that's usually a once a year thing for me to do, so no shame. My intention was to start TODAY again and hit my ultimate goal of 165lbs-168lbs by June of this year. So here we go!
