I am logging here to keep myself accountable. Just a little bit of background first:
Male/50 years young/190 cm tall. Overweight (there, I said it) at 113 kg (01 May 2022).
Exercise history: trained Kyokushin in the period 1987 - 2003 (passed nidan grading in 2001). Started getting an interest in kettle-bells around 2003. Been exercising on and off since that time. Started and stopped training on a regular basis, with a typical run being 6-7 weeks of exercise, followed by the same amount of time of no exercise. Reading more about exercising than actually doing it, resulting in a fair amount of Dunning-Kruger
Discovered TB in 2020, with a successful Base Building run followed by a couple of weeks of Operator Black. Then crashed again, and repeated the same thing two more times with the last run ending in February 2022. Eating has been horrible, which resulted in me now being fatter than what's healthy. I didn't eat until mid/late-afternoon, then got so hungry that I snacked on cheese until supper. This is basically how sumo-wrestlers get themselves bigger. My main problems: cheese and wine.
This time something has to change. I decided to reward my gorgeous wife every time I finish a block, so she's pushing me now
I also decided to start logging, not just in my notebook, but publicly (here) to keep myself accountable. Also started looking at my eating, trying to get at least 3 meals per day and getting less/no cheese and wine in. Steadily building some healthy habits.Initial plan with targets:
See how far I can get in the period of two years (hence the title
)Block 0: Pre-Base Building (building the habit, determining weights for the cluster, jogging 5 km non-stop); started this 02 May 2022.
Block 1: Base Building
Block 2: Operator Black-Pro
