What's It All About?

Follow me, or better yet join me as I journey into my sixties... enjoying my grandchildren... trying to stay healthy and fit... maybe some traveling and whatever else tickles my fancy.

Walk, work, work-out und wunderbar

The second day of the year. Nutritionally I started it with a bowl of Oatmeal, a tablespoon of Natural Peanut Butter, a banana, Whey Protein and Black Coffee. Protein, fats and carbs all covered... all clean. You know when you eat clean you can eat a lot more food and still maintain a healthy weight... I'm a hungry guy, so more food works for me, especially if I can eat 5 or 6 times a day. I've upped my calories from around 2000 a day to between 2600 and 3000 a day. I'll see how that works for building muscle. If I see too much fat in the mirror, I will adjust. Not necessarily the calories, but the proportions of the micro-nutrients.

For my physical activities today, I started with a 30 minute walk before work, about 2 miles. After work I did my Back & Biceps routine, about 18 sets for the back and 9 sets for the biceps.
It was foggy and drizzling this morning, so still no bike ride this year.
But I did do 4 short German lessons to make up for my lack of cycling.... exercising the brain instead of the legs.
