I've been doing the Slimgenics plan for 9 weeks. I'm very near my goal weigh of 195 lbs. They suggest and encourage me to go down to 180 lbs. I don't believe those silly weight charts and I think I'd be grossly thin at 180 lbs. I wasn't that light in high school! So, I'm going to enter the control phase at Slimgenics and begin my next phase...
Phase of what? Well I said in an earlier post that one of my goals was to sprint the 100 meters again!
I reached out to my younger brother Jon. He's an athletic trainer and has a PhD in exercise physiology. In other words, he's in really kick ass shape and he loves to torture me for being a fat body...the little bastard. Anyway, I did reach out to him and asked him to compile a track work out that would allow me to compete in a track meet at the end of July 2011. I thank him for doing just that… I have a plan. A regimen. And I can follow a regimen.
The remainder of this blog will be dedicated to tracking my progress and how my tired old body adapts to this new life style.
