"2014 100k Transformation Challenge" Boogs adventure and log
Hey all,
This will be my adventure for this challenge for 2014.....
I will be entering "100k Transformation Challenge" to gain support and to give support to all who is involved in this challenge. I will be logging motivation, workouts, nutrition, funny pics and serious items of interest.
Many people will pick a plan and follow it being nutrition or workouts, I will be following my nutritionist and personal trainers workouts; However I will be looking at everyones posts and looking at other plans, to gain more insight and what works for them. I per say so not follow anyone's workouts to a tee, but my personal opinion is that you can learn a lot by everyone, and everything.
So if you would like to follow my thread or bodyspace please hit the friend button, I invite any and all criticism, opinions and insight while on my journey.
Soooo for my transformation challenge, i will be utilizing several places to workout
B-fitness (usually from 0330hrs to 0630hrs on my duty days)
Blair Township Fire and EMS Department ( usually pm workout while on duty)
Peninsula Township Fire and EMS Department (at least once a week)
Home (this is where i will be utilizing my Bowflex treadclimber; TRX Training System; Resistance bands and my Bowflex Upper Cut)
I am blessed with so many places to workout, so really is no excuse to NOT get a workout in at all.
I will usually take a rest day a week.
I have two boys Ty (3) and tucker (1); whom are with me when I am not at work, and they usually get the resistance bands out and workout with me.
A little about me I am IAFF Firefighter/Paramedic and E.R.T. Medic for the area (SWAT TEAM). I work 3 jobs (3= 24hr shifts a week and 1= 8hr shift every other tuesday) and I am on call 24/7 365 for any SWAT call outs. So my life is busy, busy with gym time and work and taking care of 2 boys while my wife (Lottie) works EMS also; OH!! and I do have 2 other daughter who I get 3 days a week Ashlee (14) and Kyrstin (10).
Well I will tell ya that It will be hard to update this daily as due to the call volume while working so I may have 2-3 workouts on 1 day as to where I may not on another day, but I will try to post a little something and hope I will make it interesting.
