So I've been working out consistently since I've been deployed. Mostly lifting. Haven't done a lot of cardio like I should. The weather hasn't been cooperating. Running is not one of my favorite things to do anyways. I might add some more circuit workouts to my routine. Today I ordered some ZMA. Its a Zinc and Magnesium supplement that boost your testosterone. I'm trying to keep it strictly natural. I just ordered one bottle so we will check the results and see whether or not I will keep up with it. I'm not using any pro-hormones or steroids. It makes lifting a little harder and more frustrating but I don't want the side effects that come with it.

Lifting weights has been my therapy. Being deployed is never easy. It's like doing time. So I keep my mind occupied. I just like going and being able to make changes to my body. I remember being the skinny kid in high school that was never popular with the females. I was 144 when I joined the Army about 5 years ago. now I'm 193. Looking good is nice, but I appreciate the health benefits that come with it. The big challenge will come when I get back to the States and I have all the distractions of the world. I'll most likely join a gym, since I know if I pay for it ill be more inclined to go. Plus I might look into MMA. Its the latest craze, but it gives you the best all around work out. Well that's all from .the Cradle of Civilization. Until the next one, be easy
