I have written before about how I love to watch boxing while working out. It is great motivation and you can use the round breaks to time HIIT intervals. Because of that, I was trying to search for the Ring Magazine Fights of the Year to find some good fights to watch, but you cannot […]
Observations: I ran into a few speedbumps over the last few days, ate a few things I should not have. That said, I am making up for it as best I can, and I have mostly conformed to the original plan. The issue that caused me to veer off course was time more than anything […]
The Thrill of the Fight is one of my favorite games in VR, but it can be very difficult at times and losing gets frustrating quickly. Every opponent in the game is a little different, but solid boxing fundamentals can help you get past them all and get a great workout in the process. Here […]
Here’s a trick I use to get a great high intensity interval training (HIIT) workout while watching one of my favorite sports. In boxing, fights are divided into 3 minute rounds with 60 seconds in between each round. Fights are either 4, 8, 10 or 12 rounds, with some fights before 1982 going 15. The […]
Observations: I’m a third of the way there. I slipped up a few times the last couple of days, but otherwise I’m still going strong. I had a brownie. I was getting coffee and I saw them on the counter and just ordered one. It was almost like I forgot about all of this. I […]
I modified this recipe from something I saw Cookie Monster and Gonger make on Sesame Street. It is very easy to make. I don’t like Lima Beans, so I switched them out with Tomatoes. I also used a Shallot instead of an Onion because they’re similar but a little more subtle. The result turned out […]
Observations I’m six days in and still going strong. I have eaten a chicken breast almost every day, and believe it or not I’m still not sick of them. My only rule about preparation is that it cannot add more than 25 calories. There are a lot of really good marinade mixes that qualify. I […]
Observations From Days 1 & 2: The first thing I want to point out is that it is really hard to get enough calories when you’re eating low calorie foods. I was basically eating all day long and, according to my smartwatch, I still ended up with calorie deficits of 1,141 and 1,848 respectively. Nuts […]
Those twelve or so of you that follow this blog will have noticed I fell off the horse recently. When that happens, there’s just one thing to do. Get back on. I have come into some free time and decided to use the opportunity to start a new workout challenge, which I will be updating […]
Sometimes people lose motivation. You decide you want to do something, you start doing it, but then the initial excitement dies down and you quit. For example, sometimes you stop working on your website. I like to think lost motivation happens to all of us, but I can only speak from personal experience. This blog […]
