Welcome to my Fitness Blog

Hello..... I am a man from Dallas, Texas (smile when you say that). Born and bred third generation and damn proud of it! I moved to Abu Dhabi, UAE in the Middle East on September 25, 2010 to start working on a major hospital project in downtown Abu Dhabi, the Sheikh Khalifa Medical City. Reason for this move was to have an adventure, make more money and try to pay off the debt of 3 children's education at Texas A&M... WHOOP!

I am married to Joy, the most wonderful woman in the world. Been so since 1980 that is 30 plus years. She is my love, my life, my everything. I have 3 wonderful successful children Jessica, Chelsea and Gregory.

This blog is way over due -- I was going to start it last year recording my new adventures in a new world. But I got busy and did not start until today September 1, 2011. It will be a blog to record the adventures and quirks of Abu Dhabi. Plus the blog will be a new motivation to me to get back in shape after nearly a year of sedentary life style. Ref "50yearoldfatmanproject"

So sit back and maybe enjoy my boring adventures of Michael Xpat.

Monday again just like last week. The weekend is over back to the wonderful grind.
Just another day let's make the most of it!
Pot o coffee yea.
Heated uo a piece of chicken for breakfast.
Off to work I go......... Do the stairs good boy.
NO MORE PICC LINE.
My pod/cubilcle peeps Scott & the Tiffinator. Are glad I have da PICC out. We can get back to doing our group push ups. Did 60 today. Great for the arms, back, & the gut.

Worked a little late. Home at 8:00. joy had made some chicken, brocoli, & grilled onions with some tomatoe type sause.

Then Greg & I watched Zombie Land. Pretty gross but dog gone funny. Opening scene made ref to our own Garland Texas & how ghetto it is!
But that did not stop me from working out.
Used the hand weights 15 lbs each arm did curls, military press, upright rows & walked in place during most of the movie. 6 sets 25 reps 15 lbs per hand.
Just keep on moving.
Hey check out one of da big GUNS.










Now that my PICC is out!
I can get back to doing the weights alot more 3 to 4 sets if not more. Low weight high reps 25 min.
Time to tone it up & make it tight.
