So, I’ve had it with myself.   I’m not in the same shape I was a few months ago let alone a year.   Working in DC made my body soft.   My active duty abs have turned to flab.   I guess not doing PT does that.   So now I’m going to change it.

I bought “The Biggest Loser” game.   I’m going to see how well it works.

My criteria for the last PT test I took (in the reserves) was 50 pushups, 62 sit-ups, and a 16:45 2 mile.   It passable,   barely.   I want 55 pushups**, 70 sit-up, and a 14:30 run.   I want to go from my size 33 Abercrombie to size 31, and I want to go from 200 to 190.

I’ll be changing my eating habits (alcohol once a week (and not in access), no more Starbucks, I’ll try for no soda).

I’ll be playing “The Biggest Loser” on challenging every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (for 50 minutes) and a 2-4 mile run every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.   Sunday, I rest.

30 days and I’ll see where I am.   I don’t need washboard abs (right away), but I do want to flatten my core.

**OK, the only way to get better at pushups is by doing more pushups. If it doesn’t offer them, they may not increase all that much.
