Long time since last post

I need to post pics.  I know I keep saying it but I need to get off my behind and do it.  I am still going strong.  I don't get sore at all anymore.  What I need to do now is work on my intensity levels and length of stride.  I basically warm up for a while and then let how I feel dictate the other areas.  Something is better than nothing is what I say. I do 2,000 reps of the LOBOS but like I said many of those are a warm up.  The last 4-500 are my workout. UBOS not so much 1-200 with the same philosophy. I just work on form and intensity level.  Still good results.  Tomorrow is workout day.  I need to get a snorkel...

Month # 3

So here I begin month # 3.  I just keep plugging that's all I can say. I will keep plugging.  Keep working. I am to into it to stop now.  Folks you will like doing this.  It's easy and hard is all I can say.  If you push hard you will get the resistance.  If you stay slow and even and just do reps you still get a lot out of it.  The beauty is I can slow down or speed up depending on how I feel.  I can lengthen or shorten the stride how I want. Its like meditation.  I do my workout just as it's getting dark  I can watch the moon come up.  I put on some tunes and just go.

Good workouts

Last 2 workouts went well.  I am most happy that I haven't lost my zeal yet to workout.  I also am learning that you get out of the workout what you put into it.  If the intensity is low then my result is low.  That's ok though I am still getting something from the workout.  What I also like is I look thinner without feeling like I am sucking in my stomach.  I can feel it getting hard in my core area. I can see that cut in my chest.  My arms are getting thicker.  As I bring my arms down I can see a curve like my chest and back are being built up. I am still a very thick boy but progress is being made.  I started at the beginning of June and here we are at August.  I am discovering things I would struggle with lifting I don't struggle with as much.  I am gaining strength.  My goal is being achieved.  How can everyone not being using this?  I wonder about that sometimes....

Today was good

I felt tight but not real sore.  So I must be getting use to all of this.  New equipment arriving this week to supplement and assist in my training.  It's called a pool bar which is a chin up and dip bar for the pool.  It's something I have wanted for quite some time.

Full Potential and return of UBOS

Tonight I feel I felt the full potential of both LOBOS and UBOS. First I did the UBOS first and got a really good workout.  I am telling you I felt its power and how it isolates and puts the full load on my muscles.  UBOS are far better in this respect than AquaLogix even though I feel AquaLogix bells have some very good qualities about them.  I really felt the UBOS tonight. Onto the LOBOS.  I feel by doing the UBOS first  I got warmed up a little.  Tonight I felt really taxed hard by the LOBOS.  I worked much harder and boy can I feel it!!! I am going to be sore tomorrow I can tell.  But I love it!!  I don't mind.  Bring it on!!

Updates

So I need to catch up for about 2 weeks  of workouts.  Some days were tough for me.  Motivational wise I mean but I didn't give up and still did a minimum of 3 times each week.  I averaged a workout every other day except when it came to the weekend.  I took an extra day off and got some rest first before beginning.  My last workout was yesterday and it went well.  The changes are more pronounced in me.  I do 1000 reps each time.  Sometimes it was rough to get going but as soon as I warmed up everything went smooth.  My biggest problem was keeping count and I know I repeated a set sometimes.   UBOS workout should be starting again soon.  I purchased a piece of pool workout equipment called a "Pool-up" bar which I will incorporate into all of this.  I like the way I feel and have also started very slowly to bring in nutritional changes.  I discovered there are Food Co-ops in our area.  I went to the health food or natural market and purchased some organic tomatoes and apples.  Bought hulled hemp seeds for protein and whole grain hot cereal, natural granola.  They had many things which interested me.  Also bought a multi-vitamin but in a liquid form for better assimilation.  2 Tbsps every morning before going to work.  I might even get in the pool today and I want to take pics to see how I have changed   I think its been a month since I took photos.  I still have a long long way to go.  Here I come!!!
