It Begins

It Begins… I have gone back to B.F.L. well sort of. I’m creating a hybrid BFL program. I’ve come to the conclusion that BFL is the best program out there. I knew this was true, but tried many other programs to learn. I did learn. The pyramid rep system is, in my opinion the best there is. My official start date is 09/27/06. Today was day three. I’m going to post my progress to show you my hybrid program is superior to T-Nations workouts. (Ego inserted here) The amazing Suz has inspired me to become a vicious challenger. Unbeknownst to the Trackers, I usually focus on one or two people and use them as my inspiration.

My new workout hurts

straight up. These workouts change so much, they never get boring. I learn something new each day I workout. I am so sore it isn't funny. (go ahead laugh you sadistic maniac) I think it is a really effective workout. It has to be.

Next weekend, I'm going to the coast for the weekend. I can't wait. I think I'll try some of that beach jogging like they did in that movie.. uh uh I forget the name of it. Well, I know I have nothing important to say. SORRY!! Later folks.
