I’m a die hard Dallas Cowboys fan, and I saw a story on HBO real sports last night that made me nearly choke on my nightly dose of peanut butter. Nate Newton was a massive lineman for many years with the Dallas Cowboys. He as a monster of a man and now after a gastric lap band surgery, he has lost over 150 lbs and looks like a brand new person.
Not even the same person
Although he didn’t lose his weight the natural way his commitment to a healthy lifestyle is inspiring and one that should be followed. Way to go Big Nate! or is it Minute Newton now?
Apparently my last post was on March 10th. It is now the 21st of March, thats 11 days without an update. I have been ridiculously busy at work and haven’t really had time to update the site or should I say too lazy to do it. Last week I worked about 70 hours, did not eat anything too bad or too good. I was working at Hershey Park. I did manage to eat almost 60 grams of sugar in one day. I am sure diabetes is in my immediate future. Worked out as soon as I got home on Friday.
I did a cardio and lifting circuit, focusing on biceps, shoulders, and back. I rotated 10 minute stair mill sets in between. On Saturday, I played basketball, couldn’t really do much as I forgot my sneakers, and played in my lowtop blazers. Did manage to have a couple of layups and a three, and a few nice assists.
Today I managed to get in and do some HIIT training. Additionally, I did a few sets of wide grip pull-ups, rows, and the lat machine.
I am maintaining my weight, but I figure I need to up the intensity in order to get to where I want to be for summer.
I apologize to my fans but unfortunately real life is a bitch.
