Re-Evaluating Continuing Blog

I have spent the last week or so re-evaluating the benefit of blogging.  Originally, it was to help support a business plan and to maintain content on my website.  This strategy clearly has not translated into additional clients nor has it contributed to site visits or comments.  So, I have come to the conclusion that my efforts are not helping others and it may be time to hang up the blogging.  I am not interested in becoming the number one blog or on the “hit” list as others might want to be—I just wanted to be helpful to others.  It seems there are enough other resources on the Internet to satisfy this need and it would be safe for me to call it a day.  I do realize there have been folks downloading my podcasts and I might still do those on a weekly basis through a podcasting site but I don’t think I want to continue writing 2 blogs or maintaining a commercial website.  For anyone that has been paying attention, thanks!

Modifications to Workout B

Similar to the changes made to Workout A, I have added another superset of 3 x 12

Superset3:  Step Ups/Seated Rows

I switched up my intervals and did them on the stair climber instead of the treadmill—what a killer.  Specificity of training at work!  I went back to the treadmill to finish out my final 8 rounds at under 8:00 minute mile and next week will start 30/30 at 7:45.  As I get faster, I may need to stay at different levels longer to acclimate and since I am rotating in the stair master it will take me longer to make progress.
