Yes, you heard me right. I'm planning a little sumthin' sumthin'.
(And, in case you didn't know who the Gold Ranger is, well, Youtube is my friend. XD)
The idea basically bred itself out of trying on spandex at AC. Many of you guys already know I wanna get a cosplay Power Ranger outfit, the whole bit, and that it was either going to be Magishine/Solaris Knight, or Doggy Kruger's outfit. After careful consideration however, I found that neither of these are truly as good a fit as the one that probably has my heart the most - The Gold Ranger outfit. Now point, laugh, jeer, joke, what have you, but I'm being absolutely serious. In an effort to look better in spandex, I'm intentionally trying to lose weight and gain some muscle. Granted, I can't afford said suit yet (unless I get the straight up spandex model from eBay) and it'll probably set me back close to $1,000 to get it virtually dead on with the show, but I will stake this as my challenge right here and now - to look much leaner and buffer by the time I'm actually able to procure said suit.
Now...let's provide a model for comparison, shall we? Here's a picture of what I look like right now, after a shower, which before that, I did some exercises for about half an hour.

And...wow. I didn't expect these photos to turn out so well. o_o Anywho, that'll give you an idea of what I'm currently working with, and though my tummy isn't quite as round as it was before AC, I still feel there's work to be done. So, with any luck, I'll be fit and fighting like the Gold Ranger himself in no time. ;)
With this, I intend to prove that whatever you set your mind to, it can be done.

Date: 2007-07-25 06:18 pm (UTC)Here's a recipe that works:
100 push-ups a day.
100 sit ups (crunches) a day.
Not all at once.
Makes me feel good when I can manage it. :)
