My story really isn't extraordinary at all, in fact i think most people fall under my category. The year is 1999, Newly wed,young, had my while life ahead of me and by golly I was going at it full throttle. Out partying late, indulging in booze and food of all kinds, typical everyday routine,and the years went by so fast. Three years later we were blessed with our little bundle of joy and found ourselves sleep deprived, and extremely overweight. Things change when you have a little one in your life so i scheduled a long overdue physical. Wow, it came as a shock to me when my doctor told me i was extremely over weight, high blood pressure, abduction I had a good chance of not seeing my son graduate from high school if I didn't get out and do something about it. So that's the moment I chose to start training,but how does one train effectively without over doing it? I got on the internet and every success story I read about recommended a he! art rate monitor. 100 bucks compared to hiring a personal trainer is doable, especially when diapers and formula was where most of my money went. Polar makes setting up a snap and their products are very accurate, its like having a personal trainer wrapped around your wrist. Well almost eight years later i still swear by my polar F11. I was a gross 230lbs then, and now I'm a much fitter 195lbs. My pressure and cholesterol are at healthy levels as well. What excites me most is God willing I will be there to shake my sons hand when he graduates.
