You know what Steve, I have been preaching this stuff without following through on it lately.

At the beginning of this past summer I moved into a new apartment and totally lost hold of all of my exercise habits I had been practicing before then.

I just read your first link and your comparison to extra body weight being the same as carrying around a dumbbell of weights every day really struck me, namely because I have a pair of 25lb dumbbells sitting on my living room floor that I haven't used in weeks, and I am definitely 25lbs or more over my ideal weight. I just thought about how difficult it would be to carry those around all day, and then realized that I already am carrying more than that around in bodyweight that I don't want.

Your comparison really struck home for me and in fact, because of it I just placed an order on Amazon for a workout-at-home fitness DVD set that I have been meaning to get for the last several weeks but have been making up excuses for not doing so.

So.. thank you. I will have them in 4 to 14 business days and be exercising daily once again thanks to you and your very "heavy" () analogy.
