The Flip Medley

All of these photos were taken over the past two weeks…

The big news is not just that I’m dropping weight — I was hovering around 212 before I hurt my ankle (tendinitis from overuse on the ellipticals) and ballooned up to just over 220 last fall — but that I’m adding muscle.

I’m currently working out at a level akin to where I was in college (!), when I was at my absolute strongest physically. Even better, my legs are in much better shape because I’m much more focused on cardio than I was half-a-lifetime ago, so I am (arguably) in better shape now than I was then.

The only bad thing is, in my opinion, I’m carrying a bit too much weight for my frame… I feel like I should be able to drop another 15-20 lbs. and I’d be in perfect condition.

Now… a few friends were talking about doing a triathlon… Hmmm….
