Pain in the neck

I've been utilizing another tip from my buddy Shaun and working some core exercises like this routine.

It looks really easy but that is where the easy ends.

I've discovered my weakness here is the supporting muscles in my neck. The ones that run from the shoulders up to the base of your skull...those bastards are killing me. I'm going to take a day off core today and look at some upper body free weights along with some body weight conditioning. I really like body weight conditioning to be honest in it's various forms and there are a few of them but the straight up old school stuff can be found here:

Feeling wise: I've been feeling pretty damn good to be honest. I think I'm reaching a point where the garbage food I was eating is slowly getting replaced at the cellular level now and my fuel is just getting better and better by the day. Yesterday I was wondering what the half life of bad food in your system is and later lat night I came across some interesting stuff on youtube. The guy was kind of out there on several points but one thing he was questioning was the appistat (your bodies internal food usage director) and he was saying it might not be about what you ate yesterday or today that is driving it but what you ate last month.

My casual observations might agree with his logic but I don't know the real time line. But I do think it's a slow "dilution" process working here where the good food in is slowly working it's way in.....

ehh it's too early to do much more thinking on it right now but I will revisit it later.

For now everything is going as it should I just need to keep reminding myself to drink more water. I'm having to push the water constantly.Not because I don't like it just because I am not used to drinking fluids ALL THE TIME...it feels like I have to work at drinking enough water just staying mindful of it.

I'm off to get some water right now.
