16 Week Challenge Day 2

I was unavailable on the 21st to start the blog, but I'm ready to go today. Yesterday I got in one of my workouts and man are those the hardest workouts I've ever done. A little about me I'm 6'3" about 220 lbs and 30 years old. I would say I'm in fairly good shape. I recently got out of the Navy (June 07) after 12 years and have worked out off and on since, but for the most part have let myself go. Well at least more than I ever have. My goal out of this challenge is definitely a six pack, but more than that is health reasons. While in the Navy I suffered a back injury and have been to physical thearpy a few times for it. Since I have gotten out and not worked out as much I can really tell the difference in my back pain. I wake up some mornings and it takes about 15 minutes before I can even put on my socks. So there it is. I plan on posting some pictures and update this blog as much as possible. I wish everyone else who is praticipating in Arnel's 16 week challenge the best of luck. Here are some pics of me from Summer 2006. I want to be at this point or better by the end of the 16 weeks. I'm about 20 pounds heavier now than I was then, mostly from fat but definitely some from muscle. As soon as I can get to it I will add an updated picture from the start of the 16 week challenge


I was pretty good at pullups, I could pump out about 3-4 1 armers. I can barely get 2 pullups now


In the gym summer 2006


I want more definition in my abs than this, even though this was pretty good.
