I Am The Fit Dad...Read If You'd Like.

I am the Fit Dad and I am here to rescue you from your fatty ways. I'm a mild-mannered personal trainer and proud daddy by day, but when danger strikes I transform into my alter-ego, The Fit Dad, to defeat the Evil Dr. Fatty and his legion of goons. Basically what I'm saying is this is a bunch of mindless ramblings, with some workout and diet tips thrown in for good measure.

Today’s Workout and Diet

I haven’t updated this for quite some time and that’s because I wrote a new program and have been doing that off and on for the past 45 days or so.  It’s a program I’ll be selling, so I’m not going to write down my full diet and workout program from that time as of right now.  I may in the future, but until it’s tweaked and finalized and all the test group testimonials come in, it’s staying secret :)

However, I’m done with that and am back to regular workouts and here’s what I did for Workout #1 today.

Warm-up - lots of mobility work, push-ups and BW squats.  Lasted about 7 minutes of continuous work.

Tri-Set #1:

Dips - 10 reps

Chin-ups - 8 reps

KB Swing - 15 reps

Tri-Set #2:

Ring Dips - 8 reps

Pulldown - 12 reps

KB Swing - 20 reps

Tri-Set #3:

Ring Chin-ups - 6 reps

Standing Shoulder Press - 10 reps

Jump Split Squat - 20 reps

I then finished up with a bit of arm work in the form of pressdowns, curls and lateral rasies.

All in all that workout felt great.  I suck at doing chin-ups on my Jungle Gym XT, but that’s too be expected…those are damn tough!  Dips are getting easier on the JG, which means I’ll be able to add some extra resistance in the form of a weighted vest soon.

Today’s diet:

I’m on a “low carb” day today, which means I’m eating a bit more protein, fat and veggies today.

Breakfast: Protein/oats smoothie with some “greens” and ground flax

Snack: Homemade trail mix

Lunch:  Big spinach salad with cashews, sunflower seeds, boiled egg slices, broccoli and vinaigrette dressing

Snack: haven’t had yet, but am going to have vanilla yogurt and cashews

Dinner:  No flippin’ idea because I have a wonderful wife who cooks and she hasn’t told me what we’re eating yet :)

Tomorrow I’ll eat pretty much the same, but more fruit in the form of berries and apples.

Peace out peeps!

The Fit Dad
