The new focus.

I haven't written in a while. Lots of things are going on, but with new equipment, new thoughts, and a new focus, I'm moving towards making entries into my blog again. I'm also armed with a whole new slew of workout songs, for WSOTD.

One thing I haven't lost sight of is working out. My streak finally ended: 83 consecutive days of working out - from July 4, 2010 to September 24, 2010. I probably had close to 100 workouts during those 83 days because of several two-workout days. I have since been working out very regularly, however I have taken some days off. Until now. My new streak started November 19, 2010. That means I have 10 consecutive days, and if I workout today - 11.

My schedule has been somewhat challenging, but so far I have managed to fit in my workouts, somehow. We'll see how this streak develops.

I am moving towards organizing my thoughts on working out into some form of a guide. Hopefully, there will be more to come on this new focus later. Until then, I'll be enjoying my new workout music and sticking with the program, one day at a time. Enjoy!

20100914 Workout SOTD.

Ever since I heard this song almost 15 years ago, I became a huge Travis fan. This song has a great carefree quality to it, and the video is hilarious. They've had a lot of hits, but because of the way this song builds, I think it's a really strong workout song. Enjoy.

Song: All I Want To Do Is Rock
Artist: Travis

20100912 Workout SOTD.

When I first heard this song, I was not crazy about it. But it's actually grown on me a bit. And when I listened to it while working out, I found it's a pretty good workout song. I like the message of the song too. The song has the danger of getting old fast, but for a few workouts, I think it works.

Song: Live Like We're Dying
Artist: Kris Allen

Enjoy.
