What the duece is this?....

So, I've decided that I am going to work out, regularly.  Its turns out that while surfing is good and dandy, it doesn't really help you stay fit.  Yeah surfing is hard as hell... i won't be surprised if hell is learning how to surf, except in hot flowing magma instead on nice salty cool Hawaii water... mmmmmm. Oh sorry... Yeah surfing is definitely hard.  But there is much more to health than just being active. (appearantly)
I discovered this when I visited my parents this last holiday season.  While in Spewta (or Utah, whatever you prefer to call it), I litterally did nothing.  Yeah I did a few pushups and such everyday to "maintain" however when I returned to Hawaii, i went and played softball with some friends.  Next thing I know I had thrown my shoulder out and my legs hurt like the dickens the next day from running around some bases.  It became clear to me that I was not as fit as I thought I was, or was at one time.

I knew I had to change.  Awhile back I pickup up a copy of both Beachbody Insanity and Beachbody P90X.  When I say awhile ago I mean almost a year ago.  At the time I really didnt think I had the time to work out, with school, graduation, and all the other b.s. you have to deal with at that time.  So I just forgot about it.  Now I've been graduated for about 9 months, most of the day I sit and do nothing, besides the time that I am out surfing or working at the movie theater.  I also have my online business.  Emblemart.com. ( tell your friends) So I really have no excuse to not work out. Now that I've started (day 3) I realize that there always was always plenty of time to do it. It's an hour or less a day.  The same amount of time that you spent watching TV or less.

Even when I played football (that one hellish year) cardio has always been the hardest for me.  For this reason I have decided that I will start with INSANITY.  Also because INSANITY doesnt require any free weights or any of that other stuff that I dont have access to here on the north shore.  INSANITY is a cardio based program with a mix of isometric workout.  It is freaking hard, and it hurts.. but it hurts so good.  Hence the title of the blog.. OUCH,... MY BODY.  After INSANITY I will move onto P90X.

Anyway the moment you have all been waiting for: Weighing in at 195lb, at 5'11". (36 waist) is TRAVIS... (rocky theme playing in the back ground)
 
While I am not ashamed of my body ( It took me a long time to get where I'm at.. hahaha) I want a better one. And I'm willing to work for it.

I'll post photos every week or so, right after I wake up. That way I'm too tired to act like I look better than I do.  And chances are none of you will see this until I'm done with the program, because I'm not going to tell anyone... so I could really care less.

PEACE
