Found Resolutions! now where is that resolve?

I did find my resolutions for the year (no, I don't know which year but they look good). I check my blog and find my Resolution Run but no mention of the Resolutions. Yesterday I walked Spanaway Lake Park with my wife, for her exercise and my love, the first ducklings were moving in the reeds close to their mother outside, lots of people enjoying the beautiful day, picnics and fishing and swimming. I also spend considerable time on the edging the front and re-mowing the backyard so it looks like it should before the promised returning rains.

Today, I weigh 205.0 pounds (working out!), blood pressure is 141/72 and my heart rate was 27 (so the machine missed a few beats, change the batteries). I knocked out three good chin ups before my coffee was ready, did fifty reps of the basic three exercises after devotions and then went to do a heart rate run, 355 calories burned, 45% of them FAT, Heart rate average of 116, time in Zone 28 minutes 43 seconds and total exercise time 36 minutes and 44 seconds. The jog wasn't gentle, I attacked the hills and sprinted like I could when I thought about it, I saved one penny. I wore shorts and sleeveless shirt for the Vitamin D, and there aren't enough really awake people to scare with my pasty white legs and bouncing blubber. Or so I hope, my wife laughing at me will always be enough.

Missed BAG day, sigh, I have enough already...

So we woke late, I have a doctor's appointment at 10:45 AM, I weigh 208.5 pounds, blood pressure is 130/78 with a heart rate of 37 bpm, resting waiting for the rev'n up. I knock out 3 half chin ups, and do the fifty reps of the basic three. Then I wander the internet, looking for shoulder holsters and current blog thoughts.

At the doctor's I get the big American nurse, she isn't gentle and the needle gets the blood anyway - when I really hurt I will be asking for my favorite nurse. The doctor comes, chats checks my blood pressure twice, his nurse has already done it once. Wonders if there have been any reactions to the medication - I tell him I am blaming everything on it - especially the weight gain, but he knows I am kidding. He does expect it will make my heart rate faster, and he expected the night sweats that first week - but he never told me.

I stop and look at shoulder holsters at the gun shop, find something that would work well, but don't buy it this time. Measurements are very important, and I want to be a skinny kid again but a slimmer old fellow is about all my future holds. Home to watch Marvin and Bronson in "Death Hunt" which makes me want to take my old body out on the road. Since the Sun has broken through I could overdose on Vitamin D!!! Yeah! 454 calories 35% fat ones, Heart rate 128 bpm, Zone 19 minutes 38 seconds, Exercise 40 minutes 33 seconds. Seems my heart was racing or the monitor was hearing echoes when I started jogging. But the forty minutes is more important than the Zone. My foot was limping for a bit, but settled well and painlessly into the jog about the time my heart got right in rhythm...

I had an interesting 'hot' spot yesterday on the way to work, thought I had been lased on my left arm/elbow. I ignored it, but later in the Library I had that warm feeling same spot again - nothing I could see nor understand - just another mystery in my universe - like women, I won't ignore them but will never understand them either.

March Madness...

I was going to shoot yesterday, carried a pistol to church and then to the range afterwards. Slid my bike on loose waterstone gravel and laid it down, exciting and a fool thing to do. Two men came out and helped me lift it back up, the right mirror doesn't want to hang straight but after bending the rear brake pedal back into position I am ready to ride again. I didn't get to shoot, seems the range was out of .45 APC, so what I was carrying wasn't going to be enough. Back on the bike and down the road, the ride was worthy an effort. Right knee felt a little wrenched but that is just me.

I weigh 208.0 pounds today, blood pressure is 156/88 and heart rate is 33 beats a minute. I find I forgot to take my half medicine yesterday, missed the moment and pick it up again today. I have to quit hiding from life, hibernation should be over and I need to get out and do.

Rain outside I hit the treadmill to clear my lungs, walk my heart and weigh myself down with five pound dumb bells. Only forty minutes, 401 calories and 40% of that fat calories (so the computer says) average Heart rate is 122 bpm, in Zone 31 minutes 34 seconds, total exercise time is forty minutes. Done to Country music, Louisana Saturday Night among others. The dumb bells are for balance, I should get a rubber M-14 for rifle drills. But then I would have to search hard to find any army using them, once they were a staple of fitness training and weapon familiarization - now we keep the weapons locked up most of the day. I need the old PT manual from the 1950-60's. FM 21-20?
