The-Drunkmonkey Fitness Blog!

What's up good folk?

So with the New Year pending, I've decided to stay serious about getting back into shape. As with most of you, I usually start get into the gym for a month or two then dwindle down. This time, I've decided to keep a decently regular blog on what I'm up to, articles I come across, and the status of me reaching the goals that I set. I'm hoping that this makes me a little more accountable and fun with feedback from any folks that like reading along.

I plan on going on a few fun trips this year as well, and there's nothing like feeling in shape before you hit the road, or airways, especially when the summer beach time arrives. I'm going to be aiming for decent summer results, as well as better long term annual results.

I will also be trying out a few different routines, through out the year, but I'm going to try and make sure I stick to anyone for at least 8 weeks at a time, as to give it a full review. Feel free to comment, or to email me [ drunkmonkey1906@gmail.com ] if you have any suggestions or questions about where I got the info from.

I will be hitting up the gym for the last week of this year, but won't begin to start the frequent blogs until after the first of the year, that way I will have my first 8 weeks pretty much planned out, and goals will be set accordingly.

A few things I do have planned in the first quarter of the year will also be a part of my goal setting, as I will possibly be going on a Spring Break Trip in March, if time and finances permit, as well as starting up with an Intramural Co-Ed Charity Football League later in the month of March. [Still room for new teammates if you're interested!]

With that said I'll leave a few interesting links, until I post again!
