So today I'm getting some pics printed off. You know stuph to inspire me. Also I'm going to figure out how and where to display them and my "shrapnel" (souvenirs from the stuph I break and bend).
I'm not working out today. I did cardio and weights yesterday. It kicked my butt hard. So I will start off slow and ease my way back into 5-6 days a week rather that burn out before I really get started.
Also we need to figure out a way to log our exercise and our progress. Something that's simple and the same for both me and you.

About Benny...
"If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't;
If you'd like to win, but think you can't,
It's almost certain you won't..."
My father and 2 of my grandfathers died from heart attacks. I'm over weight and unhealthy (I'm 37 years old, 6' tall, 287lbs., and 32% body fat.) and I know that I'm next if I don't get my ass in gear. I need to change the way I move and the way I eat. But eating and exercising to be healthy is boring. So I will change my lifestyle to get healthy and possess "real" strength. I want to break cinder blocks, bend steel, bench 500 lbs, drive nails with my bare hands, and bend horse shoes. Something has kept me from making any significant lifestyle changes and attaining my goals.
I AM NOT beaten!
I WILL dare to dream big, set crazy goals, and make it fun!
I AM winning this battle!
MY GOALS:
1. Within 6 weeks I will be at 22% body fat.
2. Within 6 weeks I will bend a 60 d nail with my hands.
3. Within 6 weeks I will role a skillet up like a burrito.
4. Within 6 weeks I will legitimately rip a 1" phonebook with my hands.
5. Within 6 weeks I will bench 260 lbs.
6. Within 6 weeks I will deadlift 300lbs.
7. Within 6 weeks I will squat 300lbs.
Please pray for me. Ask others to pray for me. Encourage me. Send me quotes pics, stories, anything to encourage me. I have to win this battle! My wife needs me. My kids need me, and my ministry needs me. If I die, I am of no use to God or anybody.
