My Workout Routine

I'm not a professional, I don't know how to do all these great work-outs, so I just do what I know. I can't do many push-ups, and people have told me to do as many as I can, then do them on my knees til I fail. Someone else told me to do Wall Push-ups, so I've been trying them out for now. Been doing them in sets of 40-30-20-10 with doing 30-20-10 crunches in between. Do that a few times a day and you really start to feel it. Hopefully something will come of it, who knows. Besides that I've been trying to find a nice track that I can run on. I'd run around the block or something, but a complete circle on the one I'm on is like 2.5 miles. I could always run to Wal-Mart (1.2 miles) and hang out there for a bit, buy a water or something, but I have this weird thing about running with traffic. Don't ask me, I just don't like to do it. A treadmill or (preferably) a track is what I'm more interested in. Hopefully I can find one soon and figure out what my time is for a mile, then work on improving that.

I managed to talk to my father about the idea of enlisting. Surprisingly, he didn't think anything bad of it, in fact he agreed with a lot of the things I relayed that the Recruiter had told me. He asked me to look into the National Guard before making any kind of decision, so I talked to a few people in the NG. What my father was telling me (although I highly doubt he knows much about it) is that the NG is stationed in the United States. Well, the National Guard is part of the Army, and can be deployed to Iraq or wherever whenever. It might be the smallest bit safer because of the chance that they could stay in the US, but if they're deployed, which is very likely, not at all safer than the Army.
