I am ready to get back in my annual hang outs and work outs in New York I do every year doing spring and summer time. I enjoy working out and having a good time and having great conversation, so I always have an open invitation to almost anyone who is laid back cool and not for no slackness to come out and have a good time.

I play sports 3 days a week, usually Wed/Thurs Morning or Afternoon, and Early Morning Saturday and Sunday between the times of 6 am – 12 pm.  The early bird gets the worm, or as I like to say, a good workout and FUN.

Soccer / Tennis / Basketball
Wed/Thurs or Sat or Sun
between: 6 am and 11 am
note*: I also workout outside with weights, resistance bands and more while playing sports.

GYM/Outdoor Workout
Almost everyday of the week after or before my sports workout
Mon – Sun (depending on the days)
between: 6 am and 11 am. sometimes I do afternoon sessions
note*: Some days I work out at the GYM (Bally Total Fitness or Outdoors doing Calisthenics, Yoga, Pilates and more)

So if you are interested in having fun and investing in good healthy workouts and lifestyle, you may hit me up to see if you can make it have fun.

If you would like to play Tennis, Basketball, Soccer, or just Workout on the courts, or at a park or at the gym, Feel FREE to hit me up and see what we can do.
I usually play in Co-Op City or a Pelham Bay Park, New York…very easy places to get to.  As long as you have access to the BX26 bus, BX28 bus, BX30 bus,  12 Bus, 2 train, 4 train, 5 train or 6 train you should be able to get to the locations.

Bally’s at Bay Plaza Has a Heavy Boxing Bag, Again [Fitness]

I was so excited when I went into the gym today (February 23, 2011) to see a brand new, well appear to be brand new Heavy Boxing Bag at Bally Total Fitness that I go to.  The boxing bag was a key part of my weight loss in 2008 and 2009, and its was missing in 2010 in which messed with my abilities to loss a good amount of weight and upgrade my fitness potentials.  Now that I see that the Boxing Bag is back, not sure for how long, I got to take advantage of it and “Bring The Pain” to my new workout routine which involves, a mixture of Mixed Martial ArtsCalisthenics, Yoga, and Pilates.  I also use couple other routines to mix up my workouts, such as active sports such as Basketball, Soccer, Tennis and exercise program as South Beach Diet Workouts and P90x.  It’s a very tough road I got to go for my fitness, but I am glad to add back boxing to my routine in 2011.  Let’s see what it does for me.

Just a little info…When usually hit the gym, I do 10 minute warm ups and stretches, then jump in on 20 mins on the Heavy Bag, then do Calisthenics and Shadow Boxing for 20 mins, then back to the Heavy Bag for 10 minutes, then hit the Cardio on the Manual Bike and Ellipticals then work on ABS and Core work, then into Stretching and Breathing (mixture of Yoga and Pilates) then back to Cardio, then into Mix Martial Arts & Calisthenics, then Weight Lifting or which ever Muscle group I am working on for that day…

I usually do this about 4-6 days a week.

The weekend of Saturday January 29th Monday January 31st, 2011 resulted in a 6lbs weight loss for me as I went in on some Calisthenics on saturday, Gym, stream room and sauna on sunday, and Yoga & Calisthenics on monday morning. I feel good to have reached those results going into February 2011 with my fitness and health goals.

Oh yea, minor note, it was my first time going to this new Bally Total Fitness in Yonkers, New York which had a Hot Tub, Jacuzzi, Pool (up to 6ft deep), A steam room, and a Sauna. Wow, how I was impressed, they shall be seeing me again and again.

My next move is to adjust my diet. I am moving into some extreme waters switching to a strict oatmeal, popcorn, sunflower seeds, wheat bread, peanuts, fruit, vegetables, salad, yogurt, water, chicken breast, fish, beef, portioned food intake each week. I also will be using Stacker 2 to shave my appetite and Multi vitamins to catch any missed daily required vitamins. This new diet will make sure I receive the right amounts of proteins, fibers, and other such natural food, with very minimum cost.

I will also will be killing things up a notch to do a 3 mile run every other day until I can do it everyday of the week or at least 5 days a weeks then unto a 5 mile run.

I am not a treadmill runner, my soccer ball is my best friend. Where is rolls or I kick it I chase it.

Thanks for reading my fitness goals and my routine, if you ever need some minor advice to get you started on making a healthy difference in your workout and fitness, just leave a comment of send me an email.

Thanks Again
