I’ve been on a burpee kick for a few months now. Having started with only five burpees on day one, I’ve come a long way. A few weeks ago I wrote about how I did 105 burpees one night. I wasn’t able to record it since it was a spontaneous thing, but this time around I set out to record myself pumping out 100 burpees. I weigh 281 lbs, so this isn’t easy. Don’t try this at home folks. Seriously. You could get some kind of heart attack. Obese individuals like myself should be very careful when performing such strenuous exercise. Don’t worry about me, I’m a freak when it comes to these things so I’m safe…

A 10-minute walking stress test can give important information about health risks to those middle aged and older. The test measures cardiorespiratory fitness, or how well the lungs, heart, and blood vessels work together.
Preventative medicine expert Dr Timothy Church, recently told CNN, “Fitness is just simply as powerful a risk factor as there is.” I think that’s a pretty bold statement, and one we would do well to pay attention to.

Reflecting on the Week
This is a little late, as I weighed in on Thursday but I got a bit caught up with some other projects I am working on. What can I say? 2.8 lbs! That’s what. It’s a great loss considering the week I had last week. All in all it was a good week, because guess what…I made my number one goal for January. What was that goal you ask? Well, it was to consistently eat right and exercise for the entire 31 days of the month. Why? So that I can ingrain the habit into my thick skull.
