Where's that bucket?

Good ol’ Filthy Fifty.  When I walked in this morning, eight people were bent double or in some state of hemorrhaging on the floor.  You can imagine how this made me smile.  My joy continued throughout the day since this was a recurring scene.  This applies to me as well.  In fact this was the closest I think I’ve ever been to tossing my cookies from a workout.

There appears to be a lot of interest in a Nutrition Challenge, along with a disturbingly high interest among some men to wear sports bras (ahem Rob and David L).  Be that as it may, there are still some things to work out.  We are a community built around meaningful fitness, not appearance, so it was suggested that in addition to the pictures we include a couple of performance measures.  How about Baseline and Fight Gone Bad?  Also, I’m looking into what it’ll take to get a body composition (your percentage of fat and lean body mass) measurement.

Regardless of what we end up doing though, I recommend that you start keeping a food journal if you don’t already.  Being in the habit of recording what you eat each day will make a huge difference when it comes to eating right.  But it’s not an easy habit to get into.  Leon, Amy and I keep each other accountable each week, otherwise it’s too easy to forget about it, and we’re all experienced and highly motivated.
