What else what else? I'm scrawny, which is something I'm hoping the PCP will help with. I'm what they call a "hard gainer" (aka it is hard for me to gain weight). There are a lot of recommendations for fixing this out there, most centering on lifting weights and drinking protean shakes all day. Although one book I browsed in Borders said, no joke, to eat junk food. That was this book's whole thesis. Eat chips while you watch TV. So, I don't want to do that because what is the point of gaining weight if I'm not healthy. It's a correlation / causation thing I guess. Like, okay, now I have gym muscles I have to take in 3500 expensive synthetic calories a day to maintain, what's that get me? I already have a wonderful beautiful wife, so I don't have to impress any ladies.
Wow, that was a tangent. Get used to them I guess.
So I'm doing the PCP to get proper fit. I've been pretty fit a few times in the past. Biked a lot a few years ago when I did Bike and Build, but didn't maintain that and quickly got back out of shape again. More recently I finished my first triathlon, haven't really worked out since. That's why I'm doing the PCP. I want to build habits or systems that are comprehensive so I eat right and exercise right so that when Halloween rolls around in three months I can maintain my newfound fitness.
Okay, that's enough for now I think. Bedtime.
Good luck to all my fellow PCP'ers and thanks Patrick for maintaining this program for us.
Tang’rciqamken, everyone!
