OK, relax ... I made it back to work today, got my diet back under friggin control, too.

I also got a chance to do some research for myself today. I found a new CrossFit place in Burlington. Not the closest to my house, but one which features MMA. If you read the articles/bios, I'm feeding my own opinion that I need to keep up my Wrestling Certifications and earning a black belt in ... something. I need to get back on the mat.

Before I do those things, I need to work on my basic fitness. I need to keep working on what I can do, what I look like and just make a better me. Why? Because I'm just pissed at what I let myself become. And I don't think that I'll be able to look my son in the face and be proud of what I am if I am a friggin pudgy "former" wrestler. I also listened to ZEE on a Crossfit internet radio station. It was kinda painful listening to most of the show, but I did listen to ZEE's advice about training during wrestling season. For me, personally, it doesn't apply.

I also found this Url for a decent wrestling mat for my garage. Might start saving for this one, man. But I got to think that if I do that, I'm going to have to start getting on the rest of my family to start working out with me. Otherwise, all this money, effort and time is merely self serving.

Anyway, I ate this today:

Breakfast: Coffee. Needed coffee. Was up at 4am for a while. No smoothie as my boy was asleep.

Lunch: Tuna hummus veggie wrap with a side order of Almonds. Water to drink.

Dinner: I showed my wife my lunch and had the same again, with Tomato soup.

After dinner, did this workout:

105 KB swings, rounds of 15 swings
5 pull ups
5 clean and jerks with 100 lb barbell

then went on a five kilometer run.

After I got my wife and newborn to chill, read this post and felt compelled to link to it here. Cool pic, too.
