The training begins

The training begins and so does the blog, god-willing the training goes better than my attempt at writing. I'm in simulation mode, I'm writing this blog on my AlphaSmart 3000 in the dark of Mark's apartment, sitting beside my bedroll and sleeping bag (light provided by my an LED ear light, thanks santa). I would put up my tent but I'm sparing my brother's living room the jackhammer. The rest of the equipment (to be listed later) will be bought within the next 2 days and true simulation will take place after the new year. Physically I started training in Queretaro on December 1st. I tore a muscle where I had my hernia surgery and recovered from it on that date. I went 4 months without exercise, I'm the skinniest I've been since high school and I'm looking to put on some lean muscle. I started with 5 mins of cardio and the rest of the hour weights and I'm slowing changing that to where today I did 40 minutes cardio (20 run, 20 bike) and you guessed it 20 minutes of weights. According to the cardio bike, I did 5 miles, that's about 95 miles under my per day goal, this is going to be interesting.
