At this point I'm in the planning and implementing stages.

Challenges:
Virtually No Time available:
Mornings:
I have to get to work by at least 7:00 with a 35 min commute. If I get up at 5:00 that gives me an hour and a half to Walk the Dog, Workout, Shower and go... really tough...especially knowing I don't get to bed until after 10PM... Mornings are really tough and I'm rarely succesful at implementing a morning W.O.
Lunch:
This is a good possible choice I can get an hour in at the company gym
Evenings:
No Way possible I get home at 5 ish, and have to do dinner and spend some time with my family, and then leave for Jiu-Jitsu at 6:30. Class is 7:00 to ~9:30

Diet:
I for the most part do Weight Watchers Online for Men. I've found it's a great way to keep track of the important things in my diet and ensure I'm eating healthy. The program encourages a healthy eating lifestyle of Whole Grains, Lean Meats, Vegetables, and Fruits. If your not familiar with the program its well worth the look.

Workout Strategy

I train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu typically Mon - Thur for a couple of hours or so each night. THis serves as a great workout in itself; however, does nothing for body sculpting and is a huge time consumer.

I havent figured out exactly what I'll be doing but here is a general daily outline:

Modified Mag 7 Warm-Up ( adding Bridges, wall walks and misc)
Pre-Guts Work-Out
Specific Body Part W.O. ( PYTP pre-Exhaust, ISO's, and finish with the Belt)

Well... First Workout in the Books albeit with a cold and feeling terrible.. nonetheless
Time: 50 Minutes

PYTP Stretch Routine
Mag 7 ( 10 Reps Each)
Pre-Guts Workout

PU 21
ASU 20
SQ: 4 sets 18
PU 21
ASU 20
Ab Wheel Rollout X 10
Wall Walk X10

Arm Day:
PYTP Complete Bicep and Tricep Routine x1
IPR Complete Bicep and Tricep Routine X1
Power Flexes Complete Biceps and Triceps X1
ISO Power Belt Each Position X1

Really enjoy the Pump with the Power Belt, highly recommend this thing.
All in all it was a decent first workout back... I can see it will take me a couple of weeks to ramp up.

Long Pole in the Tent here is carving out that hour, Doing the Pre-GUTS warms me up and gets me motivated to workout so I can start out totally unmotivated and cold and the way I have it set up by the time I get through the Pre-Guts I'm pumped up and ready.

Day 2 down ( 60 Minute Workout ) Still sick but managed to workout.. :sick:

Warm-UP/Cardio
- PYTP Stretch Routine
- Mag 7 ( 10 Reps Each)
- Pre-Guts Workout
PU 21
ASU 20
SQ: 4 sets 18
PU 21
ASU 20
Ab Wheel Rollout X 10
Wall Walk X5 forward and backwards

Shoulders and Chest Day:

PYTP Complete Shoulder and Chest Routine x1
IPR Complete Shoulder and Chest Routine X1
Power Flexes Complete Shoulder and Chest X1
ISO Power Belt work

Really enjoy the PowerBelt and feel that if offers quite a different feel than the standard ISO. I feel like I can push much harder with the belt and get more intensity. I'm extremely glad I picked this up and would highly recommend this training device to anyone doing ISO's.
:good:

Friday the 20th was a complete day of HIking:

8 HOurs on the Trail and around 18 MIles later I feel as though I got a good bit of light work done and didn't really have much time left for a workout. Great Hike the pinnacle of the hike was Springer Mountain. This year I'm planning on getting done the entire AT in Georgia and hopefully much of the Benton Mackaye Trail.... we shall see...

Saturday was my return to Jiu-Jits, decent workout and Sunday was a lazy football day...

It's now Monday and I will repeat my first days workout...and report back later..

Enjoy the journey!!
