    I need you on call 24/7! My bet with Wes is to get down to a certain weight by training camp. I won't see him 'til our first preseason game, so I have 'til October 8th. I have nothing to lose but the weight...... he's the one putting up all the money.

    I know. I hate using my schedule as an excuse, but take this past week for example. Since we got back from SLC last Thursday night, I have been to the gym everyday and hit the stairs for about 30-45 minutes each day (easing my way back into it) Now I just left today and am now down here in Vegas working 15 hour days and won't be home til Sunday night. As soon as I get back into the mode of busting my ass, I have to take some time off. I know some is better then nothing, it just gets frustrating to kill my momentum.

    5 days a week is sufficient. Mix it up, too. Stair stepper, rower, elliptical, bike. Keep your body thinking. Watch what you eat, try and cut out the shitty carbs like white breads, or too much pasta stuff like that.

    Put together a 3 week period where you just hit it and hit it hard, no excuses during that period you gotta make it to the gym. After that period goes by you'll start feeling results and digging it and want to go to the gym. All it takes is an hour out of the day. You'll become hooked after a certain period. It won't become a chore. Then slowly incorporate weights.

    I bet if you really put your mind to it you could lose 50lbs by training camp.

    Oh, and have lots of sloppy sex with the old lady.

    no. i need to. just lazy i guess. I just do cardio and shoot hoops.

    If you're going for a weight, doesn't muscle weigh more than fat? just do shitloads of cardio and eat right? When I got in shape way back, what did it for me was doing interval training. My knees suck too bad to be doing that now though. maybe i'll try it out on a bike...but last time I tried on an eliptical I got a strained achillies.

    So to break it down to it's simplest ........ hit the stairs everyday and quit drinking Pepsi and I can't help but lose weight!

    Why? Why not just hit the stairs for 30 minutes in a row?

    This one makes you work harder. then rest and then harder again. Its pretty effective at getting your heartrate up. I'd come off the treadmill fucking drenched in sweat.

    the stairclimber....not so much.

    I actually don't eat that bad anymore....... I'm just addicted to soda! I realize how bad it is, but I just can't quit. I rarely drink and don't smoke. If I can kick this habit, I'll be a happy ass gangsta'!
