a beginning

1st real blog. ok. so i guess a little explanation of silent munki cacophony for starters. silent...well because it's written. unless you are reading it out loud, but then it's your voice not mine - so it's still silent. munki? nickname! just a variation on the theme. and cacophony? well an actual definition would say something like discordant sounds, or harsh joining of sounds, or i like this one "language which is perceived as harsh, rough, and unmusical." my words are highly unmusical. and maybe a bit rough in that they are not well written or unfiltered. but that's the point of this thing for me. it's not one theme. i don't intend to write about any one thing. one may not go with the next. and it seems what we do and think is not always perceived the way we would think. and, my mind tends to be all over the place. so my silent munki cacophony begins...

on this monday, i try to find some direction for my week and all the things i have to do and want to do. and i am trying to set some goals for myself. one of them is related to my fitness goals. i have been faltering in motivation lately and this is (hopefully) a way to keep it going. also, people often ask me what i do for workouts. so, i thought i'd include my workouts in my posts. if i post it, you know i did it. if i haven't, well then you can chide me or whatever you think might help push me along. my goal is to not miss. not miss games, not miss daily workouts. i'm talking consistency, regardless of what comes up. so my workout with fitwit today:

Wall Ball/Pushup Challenge: my time to complete was 14 min, 35 sec
50-40-30-20-10
50 wall balls then 50 pushups
40 wall balls then 40 pushups
30 then 30
20 then 20
10 then 10
followed by 20 minutes for as many rounds as possible (i did 4.5):
15 Kettle bell High Pull (i used 30 lbs)
15 Pull-ups
30 Heel to sky raises (abs)
50 Jumping Jacks

this is a "wall ball" if you care to know and don't
