May 24, 201412 yr Author Has a good P90X (Kempo plus) workout today. A few people have said to me they are starting to notice I am lifting. I can not tell but even as a old man it is good to hear it, for some odd reason. My brother measured my arms today(Biceps) and not that this is good by any means, they are the biggest they have ever been. 16 1/4 inches. Sadly I am still one of the smaller guys in the gym, as far as arms goes.
May 24, 201412 yr Ok, so I now have a free one week trial at LA Fitness! What is the best rate you can hold out for? I was told to hold out for 0 down and $29 per month and just wait until you get it. Is that the best offer there? When I return from my trip to Europe, I plan on starting a membership, I am guessing LA Fitness. Erick Silva and his team has sent me what they think I should do to get more into shape and drop weight. I am 240 now, many people say they would have guessed 200-210, and don't see me at 240, so I guess I hide it well. But I am looking to get down to 205- 200. While Erick and his team have loftier goals for me at 190.

I go to the one off of Buttermilk.

May 25, 201412 yr I'll be at Buttermilk. I guess I'll be going mostly in the morning. I'm sure you will spot me llol Let me know if you'd like someone to work out with I can do early morning 6 am or afternoon any time after 5.
May 26, 201412 yr Let me know if you'd like someone to work out with I can do early morning 6 am or afternoon any time after 5. ^ I'll be there all this week, and start about 6am. Haven't really worked out since my rotator cuff injury, and need to work out the scar tissue. In about 2 weeks I go overseas, and will join LA by late July when I get back. It would be nice to have someone push me a bit either now and or starting in July.
May 27, 201412 yr Let me know if you'd like someone to work out with I can do early morning 6 am or afternoon any time after 5. I'll be there in the morning. If I don't go to church first it will be about 7:15 when I get there, if I don't go then it will be about 6:30-6:45 AM. I'll have on a black shirt with the sleeves cut off, either an Erick Silva MMA shirt, Brazilian jiu jitsu, or a Muay Thai shirt. And on my left upper arm a tattoo of the Blessed Mother. The last 30 mins i'll be in the sauna.
May 27, 201412 yr Yesterday at my crossfit gym we did our annual Murph on Memorial Day workout. I would guess most crossfit gyms across the country do this workout some time during the Memorial Day weekend. The workout as prescribed is: 1Mile Run 100 Pull Ups 200 Push Ups 300 Squats 1 Mile Run While wearing a 20lb weight vest. The majority of people will not wear the weight vest and break the movements into 20 rounds of 5,10,15 on the pull ups, push ups, and squats or 10 rounds of 10,20,30. I do the 5,10,15 route. The work out is named after Navy Seal and Medal of Honor recipient LT. Michael P. Murphy who was killed in 2005 in Afghanistan.

I also did this yesterday afternoon which is why I opted to take the day off to let my body recover(12 hours just isnt enough time)some. Will be back at it tomorrow morning before work.

May 27, 201412 yr How long did that take? 53 minutes for myself without the vest. Kinda difficult doing it at a gym like LA Fitness but I got it done.
May 27, 201412 yr How long did that take? 57:13 It's one of those that I could do 10 times and my times would be all over the place. The hard core guys wear the vest and put a mile run in between each movement.

May 28, 201412 yr That's pretty beastly with a vest. I know guys that were doing it in the upper 60's and 70's. Oh I didn't do it with a vest. I've still got 10 lbs of winter weight I'm try to shed, that was vest enough for me.
May 28, 201412 yr Oh I didn't do it with a vest. I've still got 10 lbs of winter weight I'm try to shed, that was vest enough for me. Well still impressive either way. Ready to meet Sportsguy tomorrow and put a face to a name.
