Welcome

For those of you that travelled here through my other blog, Not As Easy As It Looks, thanks for stalking...I mean, following me here. For those of you that somehow mysteriously landed here, welcome. Eh...I suppose I should give a brief intro to the purpose of this in relation to the other blog, eh?

Well, for those that don't know, I'm currently in the process of enlisting (again) in the United States Army. It's been a long, hard road, but this is only the beginning. Not one to give up, I'll keep on truckin' until I get where I need to be in my life. Anyway...all of that drama (which I loathe having in my life) can be found in my other blog. This particular blog is really just my virtual strenght/cardio/food journal. Nothing special, really. Just making myself accountable to, well, everyone. So that's what you'll find here: what I did at the gym and what I ate. I will update this one pretty much every day, since that's when I'm at the gym. I won't be doing my cute li'l QOTD or anything because that's just too time consuming to find a quote for every freakin' day, especially for two blogs. I may put a quote in here that I find particularly inspiring or motivational, but that's about it. In fact, I'll start with one of my favoritest quotes related to working out:

“This is my body. And I can do whatever I want to it. I can push it. Study it. Tweak it. Listen to it. Everybody wants to know what I'm on. What am I on? I'm on my bike busting my ass six hours a day. What are you on?”
Lance Armstrong

I love Lance. He's great. Read his book and highly recommend it to everyone. The other day, I got this thing in the mail from some financial company. I don't know why I got it, but I'm glad I didn't throw it away without reading it. Inside was a poster like this that is now hanging on my wall:

Hot, eh? Haha...

Feel free to leave me some moto (that's motivation for all y'all not familiar with the term) in my comments if ya want, or whatever...OH! And as for the whole 'muscularpanda' screenname...Well, first, I LOVE pandas. Collect 'em. Have one tattooed on my back. My most prized possession, which I will not give up for anything or anyone, is a stuffed panda I've had since I was a year and a half old.

I love her. Haha...I'm a dork, I know. Also, I love rice and Chinese food, and have been known to say, "I eat so much rice, I must be part panda." And yes, I'm aware, pandas don't eat rice, but it's the whole Chinese connection, ya know? Anyway...that's where the 'muscularpanda' came from (I think the 'muscular' part is pretty self-explanatory, eh?). Keep checkin' back for updates, including one later when my day is done.
