This is gonna be my first daily report on what’s going down in my 14 week challenge.

I actually spent way more time putting together my other posts and getting this blog all ready than I thought I was going to but whatever… It’s getting kinda fun…

So here’s what we got today:

Today I did my “day 2″ of my rotating 2 day exercise routine (for the time being I have two main workouts that I do twice a week).

Even though it was tougher than I was hoping… I got up bright and early and got my ass to the gym. It was strength training time since I blew it the day before (I used up one of my alcohol nights on Monday ). Got my full workout in and was sweating like a hog (which is awesome!)… I hit up the sauna for about 20 minutes doing what I always do in the sauna…

…read

Yup, after all the crap I went through in school and with how much I absolutely hated reading, now, I spend every day sitting in the sauna for about 20 minutes and read.

And don’t think it’s some literal masterpieces or anything of the like…

Nope, no Shakespeare for me…

Currently, I’m reading two books. One that’s fucking hilarious (and wrong on sooo many levels) and then a book that is a flat out good read.

What are they?

“I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell” and “The Game”.

So when I got back from work today… I hit up the gym again, this time for my cardio workout and read The Game as I was riding the bike. I burned just over 300 calories on the bike alone and then hit up the sauna for a second time, this time reading some Tucker Max and I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell.

What I’ve been finding is that while most people have problems getting to the gym… thinking it’s too much of a pain in the butt… I actually find it to be one of the best things I can do for myself.

Forget the fact that I’m actually doing something that’s really good for me… It’s super therapeutic. It’s time for me to do whatever I have to do, listen to some music and sweat. Then hitting the sauna and getting some reading done is one of the best feelings in the world.

If you’re finding it tough to get to the gym, find some good music and just get there… That’s by far the hardest part… Just making your way to the gym.

Till next time…
