"Breakfast with Geezer"

Welcome back!

I will be continuing my exercise tips next week, but something different for today.

I want to introduce a new weekly post I will be doing. In addition to my usual [awesome] blog posts, I am beginning a segment titled...

 "Breakfast with Geezer."

Now this isn't breakfast with geese or anything.

(I wouldn't want to anyway. Apparently they're vicious, who knew)?

"Breakfast with Geezer" is a segment about my breakfast trips with my dad every week. As you all probably know, you may know my father as Al Penwasser. If you have any type of sense of humor, you'll visit his blog page http://alpenwasser.blogspot.com/. You will not regret it, he is hysterical. I mean where else would I get my fantastic sense of humor from? 

Yeah me neither. Anyways, my dad and I visit several diners throughout our area and I am going to begin writing about it every Thursday. So, not ONLY will you have one post a week from me, you'll have TWO posts a week!

Since, I am presenting this wonderful news to you, I'll stop for today so you take in the thought of me posting twice a week. 

See you next time!

And remember, whenever you're feeling down, and don't want to do anything. Just do it!

Oh Miley.

(Incase anyone was wondering, Al is not offended by being called Geezer). 

Cardio cardi card car ca can i have pizza instead

Alright, I will be honest I've been slacking in posting on here the past couple months. I am going to turn that around, because I know, the suspense is killing you.

 Yeah, I didn't think so either. 

But, as promised I will present some exercise advice for all those beginners like I was a few years ago. Now, originally I was going to have pictures taken of me doing the actual exercises, but unfortunately I was unable to do so for a couple reasons. 

1. I don't think anyone wants to see that

2. I didn't want to be that person at the gym.

So, therefore, I will explain in depth the exercises I do. I will, however go piece by piece each week so I do not overwhelm anyone so I'll begin with...

Cardio

Okay, for this I will explain what I do. You don't have to do this (I mean you don't really have to do any of this), but I generally do a few things.

1. If it is Chest/Tricep or Back/Bicep day, then I will do 30 minutes total of cardio. If it is Leg/Shoulder day, I will do 10 minutes cardio
2. Generally, I will ATTEMPT to run straight 30 minutes, but this isn't always the best thing to do. First, it's so mother******* boring. More importantly though, there is is this concept titled, "Cardio Bunny." This is where people think the way to lose weight is to just RUN, RUN, AND RUN. 

NO. You are not Forrest Gump, you don't always need to run. 

Now, I am NOT saying running isn't important, because it is very important. Cardio in general is important, but you do not need to run the same pace for 30 minutes, because not only is it so incredibly boring, but it is unnecessary. 

Here is my advice to you when it comes to cardio. 

1. If you are going to do just the treadmill, break it up. In other words, instead of running 30 minutes at the same pace, try to mix it up. Running 10 minutes of sprints every other minute, or try to change the pace every 10 minutes. 
2. If you do not want to just do the treadmill, trying breaking it up. For instance, do 10 minutes of running, 10 minutes of the bike, and 10 minutes of the row machine (Also, very good machine). It'll go a lot faster doing it in small time frames such as this. 
3. Or, if you don't like any of that, try out HIIT (high intensity interval training). For more information on that, visit http://www.bodybuilding.com/. I HIGHLY recommend this website for anything fitness related. If you do not believe me about any of the stuff I say, I promise this website will be incredibly helpful for you. 

I hope I helped a bit for your future workout today. Either way, here's a a little bit of Miley for your day.

Leonardo Finally Wins!

It has been quite awhile since I have posted...yikes! I was in hibernation, because it has been pretty chilly outside. 

I mean, even the snow from that fun storm back in January is still on the ground. Imagine that?

So, the Oscars 88th Academy Awards were this past Sunday. Guess who didn't watch it?

That's right. I did not watch it. I didn't watch it because I had no interest, but because I simply forgot about it. However, I did hear some fantastic news. I nearly cried tears of joy for this particular winner. He has been nominated for many years, but has never won this award. I am proud to announce the Best Actor in a Motion Picture is......

DRUM ROLL PLEASE

Finally! You go Leonardo! You finally w--

Uh oh. There seems to be a mistake. The real winner is...

"Not again."

Totally kidding, Leonardo. You totally won.

The poor guy was waiting way too long for this. 

Anyways, tune in for my next blog post where I teach fellow beginner gym goers some lifting ideas. I'll go by each gym day I follow and provide you with ideas on what exercises to do.

See you next time!
