Fitness Update

By Stephen Boudreau at 02:15 PM|

Week seven is nearly complete and I have to say that these have been some of the best weeks of my life. Shelley and I have really firmed up and gotten in pretty good shape. We've both lost a bit of weight, but since neither of us was really overweight to begin with, the most dramatic difference has come in muscle tone, endurance, and strength. That being said, both of us have lost an inch or two from our waistlines. Hooray!

One of the things that I have found priceless in the process has been adjusting our diet and scheduling our meals. It really affects the way I feel, my energy level, and, obviously, the way I look.

Again, if you are interested in learning more about what we are doing you can visit this website or you could just ask us directly.

Have a good Thursday.

Pull!

So Chris and I took the morning off and had a relaxing, Ascendio-sponsored, extravaganza-o'-fun. Armed with a shot gun and 200 rounds of ammo, we experienced the art that is clay shooting.

Having never done this before, I anticipated that it would be a subpar performance by yours truly. To make things more interesting, we did their advanced "challenge course". This course involved 10 different stops with the clay being launched at different angles and levels of difficulty. Throw the hurricane force winds in and you've got yourself a recipe for quite a spectacle.

Fortunately, not only was it a total blast (pun intended) -- I wasn't half bad (for a beginner). More importantly, I soundly defeated Chris "the miss" Mechsner.

Winning is nice, my friends, but bragging rights...those are priceless.
