Focus

I had a big life event, not really something to discuss over this format, but the event has really made me want to focus on a few things.  I plan to make some "updates" to some of the person goals I have been working towards this year.  First and foremost and something I can share here is my workout schedule for the rest of the summer (at least until my birthday).

DAY	Power	Work1	Work2	Work3	Work4	Superset	Cardio
Monday	Bench	Dips	Steam Engine	Push-up	Push-Down	Shoulder Superset	Tabata Set
Tuesday	Squat	DB Front Sq	DB MK Lunge	Ball Pike	Situps	Leg Superset	Treadmill
Wednesday	Pull-up	KBS	Rows	Back Fly	Upright Rows	Bicept Superset	Tabata Set
Thursday	Clean	Dips	Bench St. Eng.	Cables	Ball Squat	Tricept Superset	Treadmill
Friday	Deadlift	Chins	Dead Curl	Ball Pike	Sq. Thrusters	Uphill Walk	Tabata Set

The goal is to incorporate some raw power lifting moves into my interval training workouts which have been so successful for me this year.  Provided I can stave off the injuries which I always seem to get from this type of workout, I hope to add back a little "good" mass to my frame.

The second goal to modify, which I can share here, will be to update my wardrobe (a little) ahead of being ready to buy a whole new wardrobe (I am still carrying ten extra pounds in the middle, keeping away from that 34 inch waist).  But I have to admit my work jeans look terrible (just too big), and I was dressed up most of this weekend, and I have to say... I like the way that Eric looks.  ;)

The other things I need to "update" are a little more personal and not right to share with the world but rest assured a little work there will be a good thing.

Have a great friggin day!

YOE - Update

So the Year of Eric had a great start.  I dropped 20 pounds, I got a new suit, and things were looking up.  Around late March I hit a stall and I haven't been able to shake it.  So after returning from my mini-vacation, which was basically ruined by 4 straight days of rain, I am back on the wagon and back in the game.

I am recommitting to my weight-loss plan and this time taking it up a notch.  I will thoroughly document the next 60 days with details, pictures, and notes with the goal of basically having a book on the matter written by the time I am done.  I don't have a number for the scale in mind, this time, but I do have a very detailed plan.

The book will fulfill another one of the YOE goals and I am trying to pick it back up on the others.  The nuts and bolts of the book will basically be a 60 day diary with images of everything I do and eat along with daily pics of me.  Nothing like embarrassing  yourself into success.
