Gwen and I started working 3 days a week with a PT that comes to the house. He kicks our sorry butts... and I've lost about 0 pounds... but my waist is smaller and I feel SO MUCH STRONGER and better. First workouts I could hardly do 10 pushups -- now I'll crank off sets of 20 without even thinking about it.

Gwen added a new bike - a Trek 5.9 or something like that - and she's riding with girlfriends 3 or so times a week and they're doing 40 to 50 miles already.

I'm short and stock -- think "fireplug" -- and don't think I'll ever loose any weight. I'm just not into that part of it... I just like being healthy with the cardio and strength. I've worked out for years and never had a sculpted body. But I can work all friggin' day without stopping. When I was an active Pyro -- my buddy and I could kick butt all day and just kill the young guys (I'm 59)... and they'd even say "wow" at the end of a day.

Good thread and I'm glad you started it Todd!

Haha..That was me Greg...You can slap me when you meet me.

I am financially healthy, and physically out of shape.. So easy for me to say this thread is better..It is the one thread I really need to motivate me..I am already motivated to make MONEY.

Todd got me going again...Walked ten minutes after dinner, and did a few hundred sit ups and 50 push ups...First day in a long time..

I plan to continue doing it...

I know it will help me get back on track...
