Finding Time...Fairly Easily

Dear Swaggies,
I got into the gym pretty late last night, which wasn't good for time management, or so I thought. Apparently, I can get my workout routine done in about 30 minutes, which is kind of crazy. I definitely know now that time can't be used as an excuse for not working out. I worked out my arms again last night, along with my abs, which is definitely the area I need to be working on, in my opinion. Overall, though, the workout is going well, and I am still planning on continuing my workouts even after the assignment is done. I would like to hear from everyone about their opinions on why people don't use the gym or other fitness areas even when they are convenient, if you would, please. Thanks guys. Until next time, Swaggies.

Finding My Motivation

Hello Swaggies!
I would like to apologize for the infrequency of my posts lately. These past couple weeks have been pretty hectic. We aren't here to talk about that, though! Working out over spring break was not easy. It really became difficult because I did not have the equipment to work out like did at Ball State. I was still able to get to the gym a few times, and it worked out fairly well. Once I got back to Ball State, it became so much easier to get myself up to go to the gym. My motivation cam back extremely quickly. I guess what I found out is that a lot of motivation comes from the convenience of having an easy way to do the task that we want to accomplish. I would like to hear all of your opinions on what are the major factors are in motivation. Just comment below so I can get an idea of what the consensus is for all my followers. Until tomorrow, Swaggies.

Problem Solved!

Dear Swaggies,
Sorry to have taken so long to post, but it has been a busy past couple of days, what with spring break and all. Here's the update: I have found a way to workout while home! I am going to the Y with my dad while on break. This is great since I can continue my workout with some of the same equipment, plus I get to have a workout buddy, which like I have said before, is a great thing to have. I am going to take Sunday's off from workouts, so I will tell you how Monday goes, which will be arms day again, which is always worth looking forward to. Until then,

More...WEIGHT!

Swaggies!! Good to be talking to you again, after the 4th day of my workout. Today was another legs day, and I upped the weight considerably tonight. I was even doing over 400 pounds on the leg press, which was surprising even to me. It mostly came from the fact that I was working out with a partner, which pushes me to do more weight. Besides the motivational aspect, it is good bro time. Or girl time. Whichever applies to you. I have to say, I am extremely motivated to do this workout now. I don't know what it is, I just like to do this stuff. Could be from having music, maybe from having a workout buddy. Either way, I am enjoying this so far. Hope it stays that way. Until tomorrow, my friends.

Day 3: I was RUNNING

My dear Swaggies. Sorry to take so long to post about the 3rd day of my workout, I spent a lot of time in Club Bracken today. Anyway, today was the second day of upper body workouts, and I upped the weight that I was lifting, so it was much more strenuous than before. I also ran some tonight, which kind of killed me, because I have not ran in a long time. Word of advice for the day: Have a workout buddy. Seriously, just do it. Makes things a lot better on so many levels. Back to the legs for tomorrow. Until then, my Swaggies!
