This is prompted by the fact that I am obviously not going to be in shape to run a road race for my 40th Birthday. With all that has been going on, Cub Scout Summer Camp, Boy Scout Summer Camp, Emergency trip to see my dad. My training schedule has been demolished. So here is my idea on how to get in shape.
1. Don’t even set a goal. But if you decide to set one, make it obtainable. Like moving from your favorite chair to the refrigerator, and back to your chair, we could call this a complete circuit.
2. Don’t let things like your spouses schedule or your child’s needs stand in your way. Of course proceeding in this selfish manner for any length of time will result in not having a wife or child(ern) to care for, but don’t let that slow you down.
3. Don’t invest in expense work out equipment. First off check with a neighbor, chances are they have some lying around that they don’t use, just barrow it. In addition you can count the lifting of dog food bags, grocery bags and book bags as part of your muscle training.
4. Don’t get hung up on organic health foods, veggies and fruits. Just eat what ever you feel like, don’t be concerned with cholesterol and fat content. If you don’t read the label it doesn’t exist.
5. Finally make sure to invest in the proper attire, this is essential. Spend as much time and money as you need to looking the part. Then once you have the proper wicking shirt, shorts and color coordinated MP3 player, not forgetting your base layer as well as making sure that you also have the proper footwear. You’re ready for the next step, heading to the grocery store and buy all that junk food. At least you’ll look good doing it.
Really, I want to stick to a fitness program, but just like a job does, life tends to take priority. But to be honest I don’t think I will take my own advice on this one. When we get back from Vacation I’m going to have to re-join the YMCA, junior needs to get back into shape too. Then I will try again to get into shape to run a road race, it will just have to be before I’m 41!
