Finally got my arse back in to a gym!

**cyprus** · 15th October 2007

I came to Cyprus with the idea to lose weight and get my arse back in to shape (as well as many other reasons). I came over on the 10th of August and found out very quickly just how much I'd missed my nan's cooking as well as how nice it was to eat a good Chicken Tikka Masala in the outside seating area of a nice restaurant.

Needless to say that plans for getting in to shape were put on the back-burner next to the gyros.

After two months of living and eating like this without as much as lifting a finger excersise wise, my belly started heading southwards threatening to spill over the belt of no return. I wasn't happy at all with what was looking back at me through the mirror. The amount of clothes that I didn't wear because they were too tight and uncomfortable was getting bigger by the day.

So hear I am now, feeling sore as fook from the gym but feeling damn good about it. I've started off lightly, doing a 15 minute bike warm up, hitting the weights (nothing too heavy, benching 30-40kg, working on my back, shoulders, quads, biceps and triceps) and finishing off with a 10 minute run. Gonna start throwing some crunches in too.

As you can see nothing special at all as my condition is piss poor. But as I stick to it i know things will get better and better. I'm going with a good friend of mine. He's about 6' 4" and weighs 120kg, big fook off belly too. Together we're finding the motivation to stick to our workouts and push for that extra rep. Much better than going on my own as I just used to get bored and quit after a week.

Hopefully by next summer I wont be embarassed to take off my t-shirt at the beach but rather have the confidence to swing my cock around and start chatting to all the lovely women like days of old.

Thanks for listening.
