Just googled smoothie bowls. I don’t get it. Seems less convenient. Same ingredients but prepared a different way, a Mexican would like it for sure 😜.

Way to go making that commitment man! When I got married 7 years ago I was in the same place of being uncomfortable and generally unhappy. I was 225 lbs. but I’m only 5’9. And that’s too heavy for my height. Anyway over the years I’ve been able to get it down and these days I float around 200 lbs but really want to go down to 180. Right now I lift weights 3 times a week and my “cardio” comes from my job. I averaged 20-25 thousand steps four days every week and sweat a lot hahaha. I’m strongly considering starting BJJ. My wife is cool with it but now I need to make the time. My biggest struggle is overeating and indulging with sweet treats. You’ve got me motivated though to cut that out.

To answer your questions

1: I like cardio, but prefer to be playing a sport to get that in. Tennis, basketball, soccer. Those kinds of things. Not just running for runnings sake.

2. My favorite piece of gym equipment is probably just the barbell. There’s so much you can do with just that. When I workout with really limited time, I can get a log done quickly with just the bar.

3. I’m pro smoothly bowls if they have lots of protein and are low in added sugar. If they have lots of fiber, that’s good too. But I would probably make that a treat and not have one daily.
