Bike on a Trail for January 26, 2012. Plowing though miles of sugar sand is not exactly fun, but it's a fantastic workout! Very sandy cardio yesterday; Back, biceps and abs training today.

Yesterday was a cardio day, and I didn’t feel like doing it indoors. I really wanted to go mountain biking, but I didn’t have a great deal of time. I decided to do something that I really don’t like to do: I planned a short-ish 16 mile mountain bike ride that took me through miles and miles of sugar sand. The sandy trails I rode yesterday are designated for bike and horse use, but I… [Read more]

About 2 weeks into my 2012 cut: around 187 pounds / 10.4% body fat here. Planning to cut another ~20 pounds. First progress photo of 2012 cut; Goal change?; AtLarge Nitrean sale!

I want to thank everyone for all the positive feedback I’ve received on my new “Fat Loss 101″ series of articles (the latest, “Maximizing fat loss progress” was published yesterday). I’ve truly enjoyed writing these articles. The words come effortlessly, probably because fitness has been a major part of my life for almost a decade now, and it’s something I continue to be passionate about. When people tell me that the new “101″ series has… [Read more]

Maximum results require a maximum effort! Me at 215 pounds / 30% body fat Vs. me at 186.6 pounds / 6% body fat. Fat loss 101: Maximizing fat loss progress.

This is the fifth in my new series of “Fat loss 101″ articles. These articles are designed to help people who may be somewhat new to healthy fat loss, fitness and weight training, but I’ve also attempted to pepper the articles with solid motivational material that will (hopefully!) be useful to just about anyone who’s working towards a leaner, more muscular and healthier body. You can check out my previous Fat Loss 101 articles here:… [Read more]

My squat station has seen a lot of pain over the years. Gut-check leg workout yesterday; Heart Rate Recovery PR matched again.

After Sunday’s very intense two hour mountain biking cardio session, I was not surprised that yesterday my legs felt pretty fatigued. My legs were not sore yesterday (actually my calves were a little sore), but they felt weak and wobbly. Last Monday’s leg workout was outstanding, and I hit my target reps on every exercise. Whenever I hit my target reps that means I add weight the next time I do that same workout. Between… [Read more]

Bike on a Trail for January 22, 2012. Interesting tree. One of my top 10 lifetime best cardio workouts; Maintaining a high heart rate.

I’m going to cover a few different subjects in today’s blog, and I’d like to kick things off by talking about yesterday’s incredible workout. Anyone who’s been training for more than a short time knows that no matter how prepared you are and no matter how much effort you put in, some things are out of your control. There are days when you’re firmly in the zone and there are days when, well… you’re not…. [Read more]

January 2012 TSM: T-1 Sella! January 2012 Transformation Spotlight: T-1 Sella

If you’re looking for some inspiration to get into shape in the new year, look no further than this month’s Transformation Spotlight, forum member “T-1 Sella” (James)! A devastating series of personal and financial events led to James’ rock bottom. As many of us tend to do when we’re miserable, James initially blamed others for his problems and allowed himself to slide further and further away from the person he once was. One day James… [Read more]
