Happy New Year!

Even if you don’t think you need excuses, leverage the motivation of a New Year to make progress towards your goals. Even if you claim not to acknowledge New Year’s celebrations or think resolutions are malarky or don’t believe in a fresh start, I know you call tomorrow January 1st. If nothing else, use the convenience of a new calendar to start tracking your progress towards your goals.

This month has been full of wonderful people and new experiences, but it’s been abscent of any routine outside of sleeping at least once per day and eating too much food. I have no regrets, but it’s time to get back on the wheel. I’m buying a new workout log book and heading home with my new Vibram Five Finger KSOs to lose the useless weight I’ve gained this month. (I hope my parents’ scale measures a bit on the high side.)

My plan is to start fresh and ease back into a routine similar to last year. I’ll be moving to Los Angeles soon and joining 24 hour fitness. I would like to alternative between yoga, running, biking, and swimming; and restart my body-weight strength efforts with a reduced volume and focus on push ups, pull ups and sit ups. As usual, I’ll keep you posted with progress, thoughts and breakthroughs.

Regardless of your goals, good luck to you. If you have any questions, please always feel free to contact me. Best wishes to you and have a happy new year!
