Fitness round up: Getting buff and staying away from 3,000 calorie meals

10,000 Push ups in a month: Today 2430 push ups so far.
3 Mile Run: 30:02 (oooooh fuuuuuuuuu)
2 Mile Run: 21:13
1 1/2 Mile Run: 17:22

Yes I'm beat. And no I haven't attempted any pull ups/flexed arm hangs. I. Am. Sore. Those run times are bleeeeeeeeeeeeeh.

If you've always wanted to look like you're cut from head to toe (I wouldn't mind....) then check out "I want to look like that guy!"  Particularly the page with the videos.

WedMD.....a site I should never visit; "Why does my knee make a clicking noise? Why am I feeling pain on my side? Why am I bleeding from my ears?" Any dang way they had an article out that I thought was interesting and relevant. 
I'm pretty fortunate I don't have any cravings for fast food or junk food in general. Unless I'm PMSing...which I am right now...then it's just the occasional chocolate and bottle glass of red wine. I can't fathom how some people eat crap 24/7/365. The last time I ate fast food (7 months ago) I felt like dying. That and as if I had rub the sandwich all over my face. I get sugar highs from fruit. Watermelon, which is almost pure glucose, puts me into a crack induced frenzy state. Speaking of crap food.....

Men's Health came out with a new 20 Worst Restaurant Foods.
I personally want to know what The Cheesecake Factory is DOING TO THEIR FOOD!! That's not normal. That's not right.

If looking at those links made you feel horrible let me direct you to my favourite exercise database sites here and here.


This week I started my all strength training routine and as I stated above, I'm sore. I am mainly focusing on upper body and core strength while my lower body is geared towards rehabbing my knees with medium intensity workouts. Squats, lunges, leg presses etc. without heavy weights. Obviously it's too early to see if this strength only regime will work or have any positive effect. I'm not kicking out cardio entirely but for this week I need to put it on the back burner so my knees can heal. And I need to build up muscles badly. I'm not weak, but to lift my ass up to a pull bar I need arms of steel.

I'm not looking to be like Pauline Nordin. All I want is my run time to be outstanding and to do pull ups.

And bounce quarters off my ass.
