Les Monts Vertes

In Vermont right now for break. They do not have any workout station here, but never fear. I brought my new dumbells along with me and was doing sets of 30 reps x 8 lbs the whole car-ride. And they have 1 dumbell of 25 lbs, and I can manage a few sets of 10 reps on that. We're expecting to go skiing at some point, but right now we're just relaxing and playing co-op FIFA. January approacheth.

not doing well

I am not feeling good. My stomach hurts a lot.
I've barely had time to do any fitness stuff. Filming this movie's taking up all my time, and I can't get any work done. Plus, I pretty much opted out of chem league cause I couldn't go to take the tryout test.
Family's home, including brother, sister, and grandfather. Hopefully some break time will help. Not very optimistic right now.
Later.

Day Tues

Had plenty of extra time today, so worked out a lot. Upper body stuff:
2 x 3 sets x 12 reps chest press 116 lb
2 x 3 x 12 chest press 125 lb
2 x 3 x 10 butterfly 60 lb
3 x 3 x 10 lat pull 120 lb
2 x 3 x 12 curl 63 lb

As soon as I'm done writing this I'm off to do air alert. I'm gonna shortchange the first two weeks to catch up to john, so im doing week one yesterday and today, then wed and thurs i'll do week 2 and take fri off. I'll do weights 3-4 days a week, sometimes on weekends.
Drink egg nog, it's delicious. And I'm working on a fruppa recipe.

New Week

So after a relatively restful weekend, I'm back. The weekend was pretty good until Sunday, when I realized there's no way in hell I can finish all the work that was assigned to me. Phelan is just killing me, and my french grade too as I found out. So I can't take long to write this since I have a bit more work to do.
I didn't have time to work out today, but I just finished the first day of the first week of air alert. I figure I'll get back into that since I have more time to do it this year, and it really helped last year. I can already feel a bit of stress on my muscles, but it won't start adding up until next week at the earliest.
Looking forward to the holidays, when maybe I can sleep. I wish I could just pause time to catch up on everything. I'm just so exhausted and overworked. Volleyball tomorrow.

Weekend

Friday is good. This week went very quickly, and I enjoy having some time to relax and sleep.
I've upped the weights I'm working with, since its not as hard as it had been. I don't know what the weights are since I don't have the guide for the machine, but I used to be chest pressing 3, then I upped it to 4, and today I did one set with 5. I'm doing mostly chest press, just cause that's where I'm weakest, but I also do butterflies and pull-downs. I'll start my legs maybe in a week, but they're pretty beastly as is. Running also to start soon, if I can bring myself to go outside because I hate being cold.
I also had one of steve's beloved sandwiches for breakfast this morning, but improved. Fry the egg and cook the yolk slightly, then use fried salami instead of sausage. Finally, use Swiss cheese, and stick it on an Everything bagel with mayonnaise. Same benefits, but tastes much better.

I just saw Dan in Real Life with Steve Carrell. It was really good, so you should all watch it.

Welcome

So I have a blog now. I'm not gonna post on it that often, but it'll be primarily about ultimate.
I've started working out a bit in my basement, but not following Steve's rediculously rigid protein guidelines. I mean, who wants to be like Squeeve anyway?
