For about two months I have been working out after work. For me and my co-workers, that is 0300 at best, but usually 0345 or 0400 to start. By the time I get home it is seriously late (early) and my projected sleep window is four hours or less. Yet we keep doing it.
There are several advantages. The temperature drops down into the 90s and there is very little traffic on the streets. We are also able to use our local college sports stadium, a benefit of being in law enforcement.
Fitness has always been important to me and is a big part of doing my job safely. I am somewhat out of shape, but not nearly as bad as many guys my age. Here is the reason for this blog. I want to be in the best shape of my life. This blog is going to be my workout journal.

Okay, here is where it all breaks down. I went to work and was determined to get an Apple Pecan Chicken Salad at Wendy's, which I really like. Instead I had a double cheeseburger, fries, Diet Coke, and a medium chocolate frosty. Just to be sure the bad decision was maximized, I had a small Hersy's Chocolate Bar with Almonds.
