Funk Roberts MMA Workout

If you're looking for a new routine, here's one that you might enjoy trying.

I like this guy's personality, and if you're like me and like old school rap, the soundtrack is great! He has a lot of free workout videos that you can pick from.

Obviously, I will never be as strong and fit as Mr. Roberts. I'm pushing 50 real hard, and I have back and joint problems. But I've learned that there is no reason to feel ashamed about modifying the routine. If I were to do "Burpees" I would end up in the ER with my back thrown out. Instead, I would probably do one leg at a time, or do pushups instead.

There are exercises for everyone, regardless of your level of fitness, and regardless of your size. Don't let haters stop you from doing something good for yourself. So sayeth the evil fat broad with the snarky attitude. I will keep exercising until the day that I can't. Because I actually do enjoy it.

Blast Off!

Hi there, fellow geeks and geekettes! My Posterous blog has just launched, and now I'm part of the Writing Sisters in Space! I'm also part of the KHEL 666 team, the greatest online "radio" blog and page.

I seem to be coming out of a period of bipolar mania where I really could not accomplish anything of worth because my mind was all over the place. People who don't have bipolar think that mania would be fun. Nothing is further from the truth. Mania sucks just as much as depression in its own peculiar way. Either one can make it very hard to be productive.

My plans for the day involve a brief morning hike, and then maybe, at last, some writing that doesn't sound like complete gobbledygook.

To infinity and beyond!
