Basically what I’ve done is set some “milestones / reward points” and when I reach one of them I’ll do another of these videos adding all the daily progress photos to the video and doing a different intro.
I hope you enjoy the video! See ya on the dance floor!
NEWSFLASH!
I do not like to exercise.
Actually that probably puts me in the middle of the majority of the world’s population.
HOWEVER…
there are things that I like to do, that I actually ENJOY, that COULD be called exercising.
Huh? I hear the teeming masses cry out in confusion?
Ah, dear readers, intrepid blog followers and the two second cuzins on my mom’s side who were forced to subscribe to my blog, well, let me elaborate.
You knowI like elaborating… giggle
1. : regular or repeated use of a faculty or bodily organ
— merriam-webster.com
Special note… For all the guys reading this… YES, my mind immediately thought of THAT too! But somehow, I don’t think the repeated and frequent use of THAT particular organ counts… something about not lasting long enough… But hey if it works for ya… who am I to stand in the way…
So… seeking something more than a mere definition, I “googled” and found … these three articles out on the Interwebz:
Which seems to indicate that ANY movement is better than NO movement! Indeed, way back in the day we actually didn’t need a special category of movement called “Exercise” because ALL movement was exercise.
You could, if you have oodles of time, read those BORING, articles but why bother when I can ‘splain thangs way better:
It is “EXERCISE” . . .
I said something remarkable yesterday and it wasn’t until about five minutes later that I realized the import and of what I had said:
When I’ve lost the weight…
Just so there’s no misunderstanding, and because I can never say something in 10 words when a 100 will do, I need to elaborate and explain. The importance of this phrase lies in that there are no qualifiers. It is a simple declarative statement that says what will happen. The path from A to Z is assured and will occur:
When the rain stops…
When winter is over…
When the sun comes up…
When Jupiter appears in the sky close to the full moon…
When Mars appears to move backwards in its orbit…
Or on a more human level… Read the rest of this entry
Let Others Define “Health” For You?In my last post “What is Health?” I showed you, my dear readers, all four of you who are reading this, how to search the web to find out how other people define “health.” Many of those definitions are reliable and offered by experts in their fields. You could, of course chose your definition of “health and fitness” from among them.
Or, one could, I suppose, rely upon the reactions of others around you to let you know that you’re fit and healthy. Hmmmm… I can envision it now, months from now having finished my journey and living a lifestyle of health, I strut, *ahem*, stride down the streets of Oaklawn……
[ Cue the music for the fantasy sequence … ]
Being Fit and Healthy means having pecs of death. It means having biceps and triceps of steel that send shivers of desire up the spine of every red-blooded gay man who sees me. It means having a set of abs that will stop traffic. Gay men will look at me and drool. Straight men will look at me and feel insecure. Straight women will weep because they can only look but not touch. Butch biker lesbians will nod their heads in approval. Being fit and healthy means I will have a body like the guy in the photo to the left.
When people me see me they will…
. . . kinda grunt like they’ve just been punched and softly say “Mer-say!” while fanning their face with their palm.
Folks will…
. . . turn to their friends and whisper “There ought to be laws,” accompanied by a slight shake of the head and followed by a soft sigh of longing while craning their neck for another glimpse of my perfect physique…
And, some, sadly, will be envious of my success; those poor souls who have been starving themselves silly and have been sweating their ass off in a gym for weeks will glare and mumble…
. . . “Let’s tie the bitch down and stuff Twinkies down her throat! She’s obviously had work done.”
