Build Your Robot



Greetings. Welcome back. I was about to work out the other day and like most days, when I'm about to workout, which actually are most days, I was super excited. But on this day I had to run errands, actually work, and the travel time in between. I noticed after a fashion, that is was getting annoyed with the fact that I had not began my workout yet. Then I thought back to my days a the University of Arizona and remembered sneaking out of the weight room, early. Shortly after my football career was over, I started down a new path. I no longer had the predetermined workout sheet based on my previous maximum lifts. I would just go to the gym, target a body part and play around from a couple of hours. I did the lifts that I really enjoyed, the ones I was really strong at, and most importantly the ones that got the best results. It became my hobby, it no longer seemed like work. Some people forget that that's why we should be doing this, because its awesome and it makes you feel strong and confident, it might even allow you to live longer, not to impress Larry Moe and Curly sue. So again the magic happens when working out stops feeling like work, so I don't know if any of you ever put together a model anything, but it's pretty damn fun, watching something physically materialize out of little ittie bittie parts. You have all the parts, you've got the instructions if you look in any magazine, or on the Internet, and you've got the rest of your life to pimp your Robot to your standards.

the Supply Run


The simplest way to make dieting not seem like a diet is to eat food that taste good. So simple a caveman could do it huh? Caveman pissed. Ha! Anyway, what's a caveman gonna do anyway besides pout? OK, seriously, I'm gonna start being serious here. Not everything that taste good is bad for you, its just a matter of finding those things, those four meals that are pretty easy to cook, and those couple of restaurants, whose chicken salads you can stand, or yogurt or fresh fruit etc. to get you through the in between time when your on the road. Design a life style for your self shoe a little discipline, and BAM! Couple months later your sex appeal just shot up 16.5%, and seriously who can't use 16.5% more sex appeal. Your in the game, wondering why the bad guys are mean mugg'n you. So to reiterate, first step is decide what you like to get, phase two, research that list kind out if it is good for you. Phase three stuff not on the good list is researched to see if there is a healthy alternative. Now if there no need to get all bent outta shape and pouty. We just slide those items into the cheat bin. Once a week, or every four days, depending on how active you are and what your goals are, you can give yourself a guilt free cheat meal. Not a day of carnage, a meal, maybe even seconds. Then get back on course. I do mean guilt free, don't you dare tarnish that moment by feeling guilty for even a second. It will psychologically aid you in staying on course if you use this reward method. No there are various different people who call themselves experts on diets, I do not count my self as one of them. I eat well, and I for the most part know what's good to eat and what's not, but the whys are still some what off a mystery. I pretty much have just built patterns, and have adhered to them. Knowledge is power as you all know. I'm currently reading the Ab's diet eat right every time guide, and its letting me know that I've been on the right path, but also why. This book will help you design your new lifestyle. They have a website also, I'd check it out if I was you. I was like one item into putting up a grocery list of mine until I realized it was in some kind of short hand that at this hour seemed alien to me, anyway, you get the gist of it, if not then the list probably wouldn't have helped you anyway. Make a battle plan, and keep the fortress stocked up.
