Day 84 and DONE!!!

I succeed in completing Muscle. It wasn't pretty but it is done. Now it is back to losing the fat and slimming down.

Here is a quick video of my journey:

A week away and some hard studying and then back at it!

Nuff said!

The Waiting Game

Sitting in the Chicago airport...watching the NFL Draft. Mindless work and waiting!

I will be home very late, more like early.

No work out today. Taking it as my rest day. Yesterdays "workout" made me sore! Unbelievable how running in sand and stuff works more muscles!

No pic tonight

Till tomorrow!

Day 80 beach bodies


This is what I posted on the SS today and didn't want to re-write everything!

Hope you are all having a great week! I am and will continue to do so.

Hoping I can get tickets for my B-day in Nov for a Vikings game...they play Green Bay on that day. Would be awesome to see it again!

Previous post:
So as some of you know, I am at a meeting this week. As part of the "team building" we did an obstacle course this eve.

I must say that a year ago I would have died. In fact it looked as though some might after we were done.

I was on a team of 10, (as was everyone else) and the last to complete the final leg of one of the obstacles due to where we lined up....but I was the first of our team to cross the finish line after the obstacles were completed. What I am saying is that from a sitting position in the sand I beat the rest of my team to the line....not bad from a former fat dude.

It is much better being in shape, even if I haven't lost all the fat. Cardiovascularly, I feel like I could do anything (except run long distances)

This is progress!

as for the rest of the day. Food right on!

Workout I just described (sort of)

Day 79 - tasting the end!


5 more days! So close!

I was good last night! Was even better today!

Had a great HIIT on the elliptical (30 minutes)

Still have dinner to go to tonight but I will be fine there. Mind is already made up on the food! Drink! and desert!

Clean food! Water and NO desert!

I made the commitment to myself that I was going to lose weight on this trip not gain!

I am sticking to that commitment.

All is well in the land of Todd!

Travel day


I was up before the birds today (4:00am) I programed myself to wake before the alarm. This was to keep harmony in the house. (at least try)

HAd good flights, No ash, No delays, no screaming babies.

Got to Florida, Juniper Beach area, right out side of West Palm Beach. Nice area!

This is the view from my rooms terrace


Not too bad. I am typing this sitting in from of the open door. Nice temps, not to humid!


Got to the Hotel and unpacked, Dressed for the gym and went strait there. As PLANNED!

Food was great today. No drinks tonight, even though I think they will be a flowwwwwing!

One week left and I am ending this one on a great note. Stick to the plan.

As for the rest of the week. I am not sure if blogging is going to be an issue. Haven't really looked over the schedule.

I will make the best of it though!

Later dudes!

Sunday Not Rest Day


Did a Muscle A workout today after church. I was the only one at the gym. It was a nice day today so the everyone must have been outside.

This allowed me to grunt and groan as much as I wanted. Beat some lifting records from the previous week. Legs seem to be recovering so much faster than the rest of me. It is so cool to see the amount of weight I can move with my legs. I truly think if I could have started Muscle after being 20% BF or less I would have seen much better results. I am NOT saying I have not seen results as of now because I have. I just wish I could see the muscle that I have put on under the layers of insulation! One more week though and it will be done!

But, This too will pass. I am reading the book and I know it is making a difference even if I have not finished it as of yet or even started the workout portion. The mental training is a reference that can not be explained.

All is looking good.

I get to spend the week in Florida and inside in classes all day. Fun HUH?

Early flight tomorrow, so early to bed!

I will try to post throughout the week but I am not sure about all the schedules.

Peace and Harmony!

NO Turkeys

Spent a day in the field and had a great time. Windy here, made for quiet turkeys....they must not like it?!?

We saw 5-6 real nice Toms in full strut (puffed out acting manly)

We just couldn't get close enough to them. We actually got there late so it was our own fault. Next weekend will be different. We will get there early (before light)

Brice (my oldest) had fun though. which is the reason we do it!

As for everything else. Food went out the window yesterday as well as the work out.

My work out today is going to consist of planting hostas around the yard.

Food will be on track though which is 80% of the battle for me!

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Spend some time with your family!
