I have ignored my adoring public for too long

So what has been going on in my life you ask?

Let me tell you


About a month back I had an an epiphany, if I did not get my life and diet under control I was headed for health consequences.

First was the diet, dropped all soda, dairy, junk food and wheat products.
What is left to eat you say, meat, vegetables and loads of fruit.
The only concessions I have is grape juice and 70% cacao chocolate in small quantities.

My weight at the start of this was 220 and right now it is still 220 but everyone is saying i look leaner.

That brings me too the training bit.

It would seem I have processed a whole pile of non-contractile mass too contractile mass hence the leaner look. Fine by me, sveltier looking is always better.

Every morning I gleefully(sarcasm) spring from under the duvet to embrace the barbell that lives in the living room.

2 exercises every morning, standing shoulder presses followed by narrow stance deep squats.

Seriously by back, hip and knees have never felt better, when I was squatting twice a week my back and hips complained incessantly, the increased volume is doing wonder for the lumbars , booya.

Oddly enough I am getting stronger in the climbing gym even though I have been climbing less, gotta love that cross over effect.

Been massaging 7 days a week, clients call, I work on them, breaks up the day.

So there you go, my live in a thousand words or less, life has a little lest lustre since I stopped drinking slupees but being a little less butterball like is a fair trade off.
