I am no longer "in the worst shape of my life." I am still working out "with free weights in my garage, like a prison inmate" but now I am also doing Burpees like a prison inmate on lock-down. This explosive, whole-body movement packs a wicked cardio element. As for the mid-day exercise, I do (guess what?) Burpees in the server room (concrete floor, two APC in-line chillers). During my car ride I also do a little hand-gripper thing, like, hundreds of reps.

Bottom line: I'm still fat, but I'm alot stronger now. Being fat and weak was embarassing.
