The First Step...



OK, this song is a little exaggerated. But acceptance being the first step, I admit: I've been eating a little too much the past few months and not running enough. I've always told myself that I don't really care how I look, as long as I'm strong. And for the most part it has been true, but lately I've realized that I don't look fit anymore...or in my world, I don't look like an officer anymore. I can probably still max the APFT, but I definitely won't look too good doing it.

I have a month to correct this situation. I'm going to have regular gym access until the 14th of October, then after that I'm going to go to the gym whenever I can until the 28th, when BOLCII begins and gym attendance recommences. I think a two-miler every morning and hitting the weights in the afternoon will do the trick, as well as 20-30 minutes doing cardio after lifting. It won't be the first time that I (miraculously) get to shape in two weeks' time. Hope I can do it just in time for BOLCII.
