Making Moves

November12

Hey guys, just got home from work. Man have I been busy, I haven’t gotten a good consistent workout in a little over a week. Ever since I started going into the office I’ve been so not in the mood to go to the gym and that’s not like me. But honestly after driving 45 minutes and getting home to feed and walk the dogs, working out is the last thing on my mind. So, I figured I’ll change my schedule and get my workout finished in the morning. I’m not a happy person when I don’t workout.

I am happy however that I started to work, got a couple of people interested in property, plus I haven’t been working since April. It gets boring after a while running out of things to do. Everybody would be working so yeah it got old after a while. I go through these phases where I’m on a roll working then I’ll go through a phase where I just don’t have any desire to do any type of work. It really would have to be interesting and beneficial to me if I was to accept work while going through my lazy phase.. HAHA.. I guess I know what I want and what I’m worth. Some people would take any job, but that’s not me. I love Fitness and Real Estate. That’s my passion

Anyway I did workout yesterday and I started back easy with shoulders. Let me tell you that doing a circuit routine with cables for shoulders is awesome. The striation & definition you see in the delts is so friggin cool, I love the way they look. Tomorrow is LEGS BABY.. Yeahhh

Here’s my shoulder routine..

Cable Shoulder Press 60 lbs per side 24 reps

Cable Lateral Raises 20 lbs per side 20 reps

Cable Front Raises 20 lbs per side 20 reps

Cable Rear Delt Flys 40 lbs per side 20 reps

Abs..

I was inspired today

September16

Today I was talking to my dad about ideas I had on some designs I would like to do. He’s in the fashion industry and is very talented at what he does. So I think me & my dad can really do something. And I also know someone I can show the designs to, and if someone likes my designs they’ll buy it and I can make some SERIOUS money. So I’m going to start drawing again. I have lots of ideas in my mind that I’m going to create in my drawings.

I always loved fashion design, I always had this dream of becoming this huge fashion designer, haha. I will say that I am artistically inclined <cough> and musically inclined. I remember being like 12 yrs old at my dad’s house going upstairs into his office to make clothes. He had material, the dummy, everything. I used to wrap it up and give it to my dad. How cute? But ever since I moved down to Florida and NEVER went to The Art Institute, I kinda put it aside. But now I’m inspired..

Anyway, I went to the gym and after came home and chilled for a little while. Me and my friend Jose took a ride to go visit my friend Jason who recently moved down from Sarasota to go to Johnson & Whales. That kid can COOK… Anyway, his dorm is cute, it’s small with ONE bathroom for 5 people, hell no, but whatever they’re guys, they can deal with it. Then after we went to get some dinner. I came home and I’m just about to finish this up and go to bed.

Have a great night!!!
