2011: Rupe’s Year of the Body

Over the years I have made many resolutions and have in fact met a fair percentage of them.  When it comes to the physical, however, I tend to fall well before meeting the mark.  Most times I simply lack the motivation and usually move my attention on to something else.

Yep, I am self confessed short attention-spanner.  I get bored really easily unless it is something that I really enjoy doing.  The trick then is to attach some like-ability to keeping fit.

Now, I have no intentions of being a muscle head, all I plan to do is get my body in optimum shape, look trim, fit, and energy filled.  And this is the year for it.

Starting the 1st day of January, 2011 – I have set out on a journey to rebuild my body to top shape.  I am currently in Bahrain, and my total focus now is on work and working out, but I know that once I get back to the States, I will have many distractions.  I will simply have to hold strong and this thorough.  I will be cataloging my journey every step of the way – both here and at my family site : http:// mbno.com/fitness.

My journey with be in phases, with 1-3 outlined below.   Once I have met the goals in the the 3 phases, I will reassess and move into other areas beyond fitness.
