So it begins...

The nerd in me has over thrown the "to cool to make a work out blog" personality so here it is. With this I will post workouts I use, progress, pictures, and anything else to entertain the extremely small amount of people that follow this. To get this started I guess a back ground will be needed.

Well I work evenings so my workouts will come unconventional. I get off work at 11 at night and I am usually in the gym by 11:20. I work out at least 2 hours on average so I am not home until around 1ish. On top of that I am a full time student working on my B.A. in Information Technology. I am with an amazing woman, her name is Amber and you will hear a lot of talk about her here. She workouts with me, she motivates me, she rocks!

Now that we have got a little bit of me out of the way lets go when this change for me started. I use to always be in great shape, but over the past years I have really let myself go. I use to come home and play video games until 5 in the morning. Don’t get me wrong I LOVE video games but I love being healthy more. So after the Superbowl this year Amber and I decided it was really time for a change. So on Feb 5^th, 2013 we changed! Our diet was the main focus at first. We drop our carb intake to 30 a day, our sugar went to zero grams, and we started looking for high protein foods. I wasn’t worried about calories as much after reading some articles about how bad carbs were for you. Well at the time I was hovering between 265 and 270. Well I am easily 30lbs lighter today and Amber is having the same success.

So with all that I will keep this updated as much as I can and any new information I get I will definitely post. Feel free to comment on anything and everything. Any workout tips are always appreciated.
