Ya’ll have met Brandon, right?

He is the President/CEO/God Emperor of So Long, Fat Ass, where he is telling about his weight loss journey, which includes a 29.6 pounds loss so far.  Awesomesauce.

He’s also from Alaska, which means he lives in an igloo and has a pet polar bear.

And it’s littertrained!

 

Anywho, Brandon has come up with a Weekend Warrior Challenge.  This is way we can all push to keep up the healthy lifestyle on the weekends, which is a time when alot of us let things go to shit.

The objective is to give 2-3 specific and measurable goals…and try to attain them this weekend.  We then report on Monday whether we passed (YAY!) or failed (BOO!).

I’m always up for a challenge, and the weekends are very hard for me in regards to healthy living, so I’m in.

And with that said, here are my 3 specific and measurable goals:

  • Run/walk/jog 20 miles this weekend. The sidewalks are clearing up so I’m hoping to get in at least one long walk this weekend, and maybe even throw in some running (OUTSIDE!). WooT!
  • Keep my calories at  2000 (or less) per day. I’m going to base this on the average over the weekend, if I go over a bit on Saturday then I try to make it up on Sunday.
  • Complete my 100pushup, 200situp, 200squat endurance tests. Each challenge is calling for an endurance test at the end of this week before I move on, so I’ll aim to knock them out this weekend.

And while you’re at it…run on over to Kat’s Adventure in Dietland and check out the March Kick Some Asphalt Challenge.  And don’t forget the 28 Day Fitness Challenge from Nerdfitness.

Ass kicking opportunities abound!!  So exciting! :)

    Way to go Steve. I like the way you put that “average” word in the weekend calories. I think it is wise to be practical in that way.
