Hi All

Well we had friends over for a long weekend and a decided to take a 4 days break of proper nutrition, cardio and weight lifting
I gained around 2.5 kg !! So my weight is now 105.4 kg.

Daily BBQ, Spare Ribs, Gin, Beer and Mr Jack Daniels. Chips, Ice Cream all that bad stuff. I LOVED IT

Today I started with early morning cardio. 1st I really did not want to do it but I pushed my self  its anyway only 20 minutes. When I finished I was happy I did the HIIT. I feel much better now.

Now I will go down to my basement and hit those weights really hard…..

Damned I want that 6 pack !!!

Hi All

Hope you guys do well. I had a bad week. ZERO motivation. Even I’m at my lowest weight since I guess 15 years ( 102.9 kg / 226.85 kg). I just really have to kick my a.. every day to do my weights and cardio. When I started in 2007 and 2008 always after 2-3 months I stopped. I hope this happens not again now.

Good Morning

Today’s weight 103.4 Kg /227.95 lbs AM  HIIT cardio done
PM weight lifting arms.

I’m extremely happy and motivated at the moment. I feel much better then last week.
People ask me recently if HIIT cardio really makes a so much different in weight-loss, to be very honest I think not. When you search in google for it  some people say 45 minutes cardio is better then HIIT. Then others say no it is not. It really comes down that you need to adjust your nutrition and do your cardio regularly for at least a month and do what ever you like most. Some ppl like the HIIT some the 45 minutes cardio. For me its clearly the daily am HIIT, I feel much better during the whole day. Be consistent that’s the KEY to weight loss.

And then someone who has not seen you after you have started your training, tells you how good you look and how much you changed. This happened this week 2 times for me. This will give you a major motivation booster….

Good morning all

Today’s weight 105.5kg / 232.6 lbs , Cardio HIIT completted
Weight lifting will be done in PM ( legs)

So what is my head today ? Well as you might have read  my About me page. I have tried to lose weight for almost 3 years and failed 2 times. For reasons I dont really know. I guess I just fall back into my habbits…. Today I was checking all my bookmark links in firefox and counted them. More then 60 bookmarks !? Imagine all that info. I think I have checked and searched all the info I could get on weightloss and fitness for the last 3 years. If I would have read all of it I think I would have never found time to do any training LOL. What I really want to say is do not reasearch so much do it step by step, from one goal to the other you reach. Because if you dont you get confused and unsure about your nutrition and your training. You will think all the time. Well that’s guy said this and that guy said this, what I do now ?  The Solution ?

Just start ! Work out a bit every day , change a bit your nutrition, skip that fast-food and rather go into a supermarket and get a ready made salad with chicken stripes.

You need combine all the knowledge together and tailor it to your needs only then you will have success, because every human body is different. What works on me, might not work on you.

Never give up and do your daily adjustment to a better life and you will have success

Morning all
Early am cardio completed. Today’s weight 106 kg /233.68 lbs
Yesterday pm upper body workout done

Last weekend
Saturday morning a friend called me and ask me if i like to come along and do some gold digging in switzerland… Well I said yes sure, in my mind thinking of a relaxing day out in a Swiss valley enjoying some nature ROFLOL. So he said sunday at 8 am your place. Np for me i just set the alarm at 7 to get my cardio in and my omlet. By 8am Mike is here, quick a coffee and we go. In front of our house I already know this will be not a regular Swiss tourist day adventure. All this equipment….so off we go my daughter and our dog as well packed in the truck. We drive deep into some Swiss  remote valley. Bad I noticed, we are on a mountain and he said ” Down there see that small river?  That is where we need to go, that is where the gold is “.

So we pack all together and walk down this mountain to the river. When we arrived I already was done for the day LOL. Mike showed us what we have to do. So basically It was shoveling shoveling shoveling dirt into the Sluice Box ( you filter the dirt with it to get the gold), but first we had to set it up and make like a channel to get a higher waterflow through it and that means moving some biggish stones. After that it was shoveling moving stones all day long. Believe me that was one work out. Till today 2 days later I feel my forearms are sore and all kinds of muscles I never heard of.
After the day finished we had to move all that equipment up again the valley…That was like the worse intense HIIT cardio I ever did. Walk,rest, catch air….that for like 45 mins. What a day and a great workout. Plus lots of fun, all day outdoors, and fun with family and friends. Below some pictures enjoy. And YES we found gold. And YES I cheated with 2 beer, but 100% sure my body burned them instantly away.

Some pictures:

Good Morning
My motivation at the moment is very low. But I do my daily HIIT cardio and my every other day workout. Nutrition, I got used to it now. I actually can not eat anymore so much as I did before. But work at the moment really is hard. Economy is kicking me as well now. Customers buy less and so on, really bad at the moment. I need to work harder I guess to keep the money coming in more again.

Anyway, I never give up.

When my weightloss and body transformatiuon is progressing like it is now I should be looking cool for our summer holidays in august…

Current weight is now 104.5 kg

I hope I find today the time to do my pictures and messurements

I’m lazy today… I need to do my HITT NOW

Hi all, no worries I did not give up,  had just no time to blog due to much work. How you like the new design ? Any good ?

Cardio update:
I changed my HIIT routine a bit, I do intervals like 30/60 or even 5/10 this way I think my body has no time to adjust to my training and gets challenged every time.

Weight lifting:
All goes well. I added an additional work out day per week. I do now 4 days of lifting rather then 3.

I started to use supplements on 13th of March:

• Multivitamin tablet 1 per day
• Fish Oel: 2 capsules
• Creatinine: low dose
• Whey Protein: low dose

Tomorrow is time again for body measurements

Morning and happy eastern to all. Yesterday did as usual my hiit cardio. I might change soon to a new interval cycle from 30/60 to 15/5. I was reading that it might be even better. So I will try it next week. It is always good to keep your body guessing what you do next. Nutrition I’m not so happy with myself yesterday. Singha beer tastes wonderful especially ice cold to a spicy hot thai curry. Anyway I was still in calorie deficit so its ok. Plus later in the evening I added an extra weight lifting session at the cables. My weight is hovering between 106 and 107kg, may be i gain some muscles already? Because I should loose weight with may current workout. Nutrition is still set at around 500-800 calories loss per day. I will see the coming week how its goes.
Today even it is a holiday I woke up early to get the cardio done for the day. Tonight I will do weight lifting on my arms.

My goal for this weekend: no chocolate!!! The house is full of it ,very hard challenge, I love those small chocolate nougat eggs……
