Testing with Salt Lake PD, and the gym

I did a physical agility test with Salt Lake PD today, along with 500 other people. It was a pass/fail test and I passed. I had to do a 16 inch standing vertical jump, 25 push ups in a minute, 35 sit ups in a minute, and I did the mile and a half run in 14 minutes 43 seconds (I didn't do so well cause I got a wicked cramp in my left calf). The next step is to fill out a 10 year personal history.

After a couple hours rest I went to the gym.
Run- .25 miles, 5 minutes; bench press- 90lbs- 10x, 2 sets of 105lbs- 10x, 130lbs- 10x; pull ups- 10x, 8x, 8x, 6x; overhead tricep extension- 4 sets of 40lbs- 10x: bicep curls- 2 sets of 25lbs- 10x, 2 sets of 30lbs- 10x; sit ups- 4 sets of 25x; reverse crunches- 4 sets of 25x; chest fly- 90lbs- 10x, 2 sets of 105lbs- 10x, 130lbs- 10x; rows- 90lbs- 10x, 2 sets of 110lbs - 10x, 120lbs- 10x; tricep push down- 30lbs- 10x, 2 sets of 40lbs- 10x, 45lbs- 10x; cable bicep curls- 2 sets of 25lbs- 10x, 30lbs- 10x, 35lbs- 10x; crunches- 4 sets of 10lbs- 25x

Not a bad day, but the PT for some reason really killed me. Oh well

Just A Run

I didn't do much at the gym today. I am testing with Salt Lake PD tomorrow, so I don't want to over stress myself.

I walked for 20 minutes, and then I biked for another 20. Not much but its something.

Gym Update

Yes believe it or not, I went to the gym again...

Run- .25 miles, 5 minutes; incline bench press- 2 sets of 90lbs- 10x: 2 sets of 105lbs- 10x; row- 100lbs- 10x, 110lbs- 10x, 120lbs- 10x, 130lbs- 10x; tricep pull down- 2 sets of 40lbs- 10x, 2 sets of 50lbs- 10x: bicep cable pull- 40lbs- 10x, 2 sets of 50lbs- 10x, 60lbs- 10x; ab crunch machine- 90lbs- 25x, 95lbs- 25x, 100lbs- 25x, 105lbs- 25x: planks- 4 sets of 1 minute duration.

And my current weight is 168.4lbs

Possible Humiliation

So I haven't used my blog in awhile... I just don't feel I have much to report. Its mostly the same stuff day in and day out. I do want to start using it again. In that respect I had an idea that will help me to do just that and motivate me to get into better shape... My idea is that every time I work out I'm going to post what I did, along with my current weight. And I'll probably throw in my measurements on occasion. This will not only be using my blog again but make it so that I want to work harder because everyone will be able to see just how weak I am...

I went to the gym this morning at 730. Run - .25 miles, 5 minutes; bench press : 90lbs- 10x, 110lbs- 10x, 110lbs- 10x, 130lbs- 10x; pull ups: 10x, 8x, 6x, 6x; tricep extension: 4 sets- 40lbs, 10x; bicep curls: 4 sets- 25lbs, 10x; reverse crunch: 4 sets- 25x; current weight 168.8lb

Not to bad this morning.

Droid

I have a droid! Its pretty sweet and there are tons of things to do on it. For instance I am updating my blog on it right now. How cool is that?

Plant Update

To begin with it turns out I really needed to cut my grass. It was getting way out of hand!

So, I did. It looks way better now. It took a little figuring out, but I just decided to go for it.

And since the people decided that I needed to grow raspberries, and blackberries... I am. I got an extra grow lamp for it, and I wonder which will grow faster.

Officialy 165lbs!

Yes that's right. I've finally made it to 165lbs. I'm not positive what my fat percentage is right now, but I'm not real worried about it. Now I only need 15 more pounds to reach my goal.

Yes, I said Werewolves!

So there's this site where you get to choose between being a vampire, or a werewolf. I'm a werewolf and the more people that join the stronger we become. You should all come join. I'm on server 6. It's fun, and kinda interesting.

Lawn in my room.

I got some grass seed from Drew for Christmas. I don't know what it is, but I'm starting to really get into gardening. It's a little hard to do when I don't have anywhere to grow stuff. I manage a little bit. My project at the moment is to grow a little lawn in my room.
Week 1 Day 1 (Christmas)
Week 2 Day 1
Week 3 Day 1

You know it's really not hard to grow grass. It pretty much takes care of itself. All I really need to do is water it, and cut it when it gets to long. I'm not really sure what kind of grass this is. It's very thin, compared to the grass back home that is much thinker. But its growing pretty good at the moment, and I'll probably need to cut it this week.

Wow! It's been awhile!

So I haven't done a real good job of updating my blog...

Couple of things that have happened. I took a promotion at the group home. Now I'm the program manager. Basically I'm in charge of the day to day operations of the place, including taking care of all the court stuff. I took this promotion so that I could get some more experience writing reports and dealing with the courts. I figure that will look really good to departments. Plus it comes with a nice raise and benefits, can't really argue with that.

I'm taking a couple of classes at UVU. Nothing really intense, I have a kenpo karate class (again to look good on an application for departments). And I'm looking at taking two institute classes. So not too bad.

I'm still hitting the gym regularly, but my weight is hovering around 160lbs. I just can't seem to gain much more then that at the moment, but I'm working on it. Hopefully there will be some big improvements this month. I've changed up some of my supplements to see if that will help at all.

Not much more then that has happened. I have started to grow a lawn in my room...
