Wow, this is a really good video. The video is much more motivating than the song.
This guy started out at 227 lbs. and totally turned his life around by training for triathlons. I'm currently heavier than him when he started out, but still . . . . if he can do it, so can I.

JZ, I haven't seen that video in a while. Funny, I watched it again and it even motivated me. Haha.
ReplyDeleteBTW, your not alone, some of the guys, actually a lot, are PFG's. Previous Fat Guys. I'm a lightweight. Many have lost 80 or more pounds. Two of them TriStemmet and Simon lost over 80lbs and are now World Class Age Groupers. Also, Rodney, Skierz and Mike and the list goes on. If you look at many of the comments on my blog you'll see there names and you can link to their blogs as well. I'd say most of the people who follow my blog are PFG's. I'm going to post this comment on my blog as well and hopefully it will guide people to follow yours and vice versa. Nothing like "peer pressure" to keep you motivated.
Good luck with your comeback, looking forward to reading about it. If this helps, my first sprint triathlon I finished 550 out of 600 and had old people and the fattest of fat women beating me.
Your not alone, we've all been there, work at staying their because we don't want to go back.

Hiya Joey, I am trying to qualify NOT for Kona but the PFG (previously fat GALS) club. Bryan (and all the other bloggers I have found through him) have been incredibly motivating and support to me. I wish you luck! Let's keep tabs on each other. I am doing 60 minutes of circuit training tonight.. what are you going to do?
ReplyDeletePS - I need to check out that video!! I haven't seen it.
ReplyDeleteJZ - saw your comment on Training Payne...I stumbled on his blog about two months ago...I'm training for my first Triathlon, in week one right now! I am a PFG, and have come down in 3 years time...Good Luck !!!!!!!!!!

I just got back from my run and I'm so happy to see eveyone's comments.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement. It's really nice to hear from you all.
Thanks
Hi Joey,
ReplyDeleteI read your comment on Bryan’s blog. I am one of the few guys on Bryan’s blog who’s not a PFG. I just want to wish you good luck with your triathlon training. Don’t despair if sometimes you cannot keep up with your training plan. Just keep trying and at some point tri training will become part of your daily routine.
Best of luck,
Doru
