Hello everyone just thought I would drop in and give you all a update on where I am in regards to starting the second stage of the project. Everything is taking a little longer than expected in regards of organisation and I have also been very busy.

Fitness

I have decided upon want I am going to do in regards to exercise and I am seriously stepping it up a gear. I will be starting on two programs one based on increasing core strength the other to build on my abs. I will also be doing a 3km run every single day. The run will not attempt to do anything crazing but I will be aiming to finish within 18:30 daily. The exercise is going to be a real challenge but I have to take advantage of my current work free calendar. Which will hopefully be filled within two months. I will go into more detail of the specific routines during my blogs.

Diet

During the next stage I will be on a strict diet. I have already started the diet and will be quite far into it when I resume blogging. The diet section will go over the days food and will provide recipes people can follow at home. In terms of cost I think I will be spending about £20 a week on food, not bad at all considering its all good quality. I have created a weekly food calender which minimizes waste for example I would have a chicken based meal one day they use whats left in a salad a few days later. This keeps the cost low.

Starcraft

My Starcraft play will take off from where I left it a few days ago, being currently at Top 8 diamond, next season I will be pushing really hard for masters. For those of you who have kept up with my blogs I often didn't play enough games . When I restart this program I will be using a proper day to day schedule. I will play about 2 hours of Starcraft in the day (mostly customs) and then will complete a two hour ladder session in the evening.

Blog and Stream

Whats delaying me resuming this the most is the blog. Luckily I have roped in a friend who will be helping me with graphics for my stream and blog. So when I return, the media I create will be of a higher quality. I will also be confirming my final format.

As for the stream I will begin streaming at least 4 days a week. I will be posting a full schedule in each blog.

I am currently looking at the prospect of making Saturday a special day where I change things up, for example I could get my friend Issy to come over and do a cooking video every so often, as her cooking skills are far superior to mine. Or I could grab one of my athletic friends to make a video going over the routines they do to keep in shape. If this is something you would like to see, leave a comment.

Every Sunday will be a rest day and will include not content at all.

As always thanks for reading and make sure you check back soon. Blog "Day 1" should hopefully be up in two days.

Thanks

Can you tell us what your specific health and fitness goals are?

That seems a rather odd choice of programs; as far as I know, core strength and abs pretty much go hand in hand.
<@Wikt> so you are one of those nega-fans <@Wikt> that hates the company that makes a game and everything they stand for <@Wikt> but still plays the game <@Wikt> (like roughly 30% of blizzard's player base, maybe much more...)

My goals are stated in every blog I write, check one of those for a detailed list of goals. The reason I have chosen those programs is to deal with the problems I faced in the past. Check out some of my past blogs if your interested.

Sorry, but we've read your blogs and you don't really. In your first blog you mention that you aren't fit and go on to mention that fitness can affect your gaming, but you don't really elaborate. In fact, Salivanth asked the same question in your [Day 1] blog and you gave him the same response. I invite you to post in one of the threads in the Sports section (like the Team Liquid Health and Fitness Initiative) so that this blog can remain the motivational/inspirational front but people can give you feedback and advice in the Fitness threads.

Improve my fitness level to a point where I can run 5k in under 20 minutes


I just want to continue to build on my general fitness level and I was recommended to start those programs by a friend of mine who is a national athlete as those areas were what I struggled with in the past which I had clearly stated time and time again.

I don't think you're explaining yourself as well as you think you are. But you don't seem particularly solicitous of advice, so I'll just say that isolation ab work when you have little muscle seems like a futile endeavor and leave you to ask your own questions.
