Day 6…Saturday Workouts

July 13th, 2009

Since I slacked off yesterday I felt I needed to get in at least one session on the elliptical machine. I traveled approximately 1.91 miles on Saturday with an average pulse rate of 160bpm. My weight has increased to 259.5.0 lbs.

Day 5…TGIF

July 13th, 2009

It is the end of the week and I slacked off a bit. Woke up fairly sore this morning so only walked once on the elliptical instead of three times throughout the day. However, I did push a bit harder on the upper body workout today and could really feel the burn by time I wrapped up before work.

I traveled approximately 1.75 miles on Friday with an average pulse rate of 152bpm. My weight has increased to 258.5.0 lbs. I worked upper body today by performing the bench press, military press, curls, tricep pulldowns, lat pulldowns, and the row.

Day 4…Exhaustion Setting In

July 10th, 2009

It is the fourth day into my new workout and I had to fight myself to get out of bed. I traveled approximately 6.07 miles on Thursday, a new record, with an average pulse rate of 168.67bpm. My weight increased to 257.5 lbs, most likely due to the four slices of medium Papa John’s pizza with green peppers the night before. I worked lower body today by performing leg extensions, working the hamstrings, calf raises, and squats.

Day 3…Hump Day?

July 10th, 2009

More like Hurt Day. I traveled approximately 3.7 miles on Wednesday, not counting my two laps around a local plaza, with an average pulse rate of 166bpm. My weight has now dropped to 256.0 lbs. I worked upper body today by performing the bench press, military press, curls, tricep pulldowns, lat pulldowns, and the row.

Day 2….The Torture Continues

July 8th, 2009

Just to let my readers know, I will typically be at least one day behind in providing progress updates regarding my workout. As an example, this update is related to my results on July 7, 2009.

I traveled approximately 5.44 miles on Tuesday with an average pulse rate of 170.67bpm. My weight has now dropped to 256.5 lbs. I began my initial lower body workout today by performing leg extensions, working the hamstrings, calf raises, and squats.
