I completed workout number 11 at Tony Cruz XTC gym in Tyler over by The Diner. I weighed myself right after and I have now gone from weighing 195 lbs down to 175 lbs.
This is really impressive considering I only work out every other week day for 45 minutes at their kickboxing class during my lunch break.
The truth is that about 10 lbs of that weight is likely water weight and so over the next few months comes the really hard part and that is losing the fat.
I will be continuing my kick boxing workout routine in the XTC kick boxing group workout class on my lunch break and adding a Yoga class to the mix.
As a man Yoga was something I never quite understood why I would ever want to do it as I always imagined it being nothing more than a lot of stretching with no results.
What I have found out is that some of the top weight loss results from some of the men that workout at XTC Fitness have come from adding in a Yoga class in their weekly routine.
I never thought I would be doing Yoga some day but I will be adding it in as a part of my routine at least once a week and the great news is it is free with my XTC membership as are all the group exercise classes.
If you have been thinking about a Tyler gym membership I recommend going by and checking out XTC’s group exercise classes. This is the best way to move your greatest asset into action, that being your will power.
Having an exercise trainer and those around you motivated to do the same thing is powerful and a shortcut to getting the type of fitness results you need.
Although some men die early as shown in the above pictures you also want to avoid one of the most common causes of early death among men, heart disease!
Here are the leading causes of death in the United States and some average numbers of deaths over the course of one year:
- Heart disease: 600,000
- Cancer: 560,000

Don’t get me wrong here; we will all die someday and I am not trying to freak you out. My attitude is bring it on God I am ready when you think it is my time.
There is no reason to be scared of death if you know where you will be going and I personally do not strive to find the fountain of youth or magic pill of happiness.
Here is a little tip to help you avoid constant disappointment when it comes to weight loss, there are no quick fixes.
There is good news however, exercise has many daily positive benefits related to just living a good, healthy happy life where you feel good all day long.
Exercise helps you begin the practice of prioritizing things and your health and energy level should be close to the top.
You can’t really live efficiently if you always fill stagnant and glum from sitting in a chair all day.

I used to have a BMW M5 that I only drove every once in awhile. I noticed if I let the car sit too long things simply didn’t work as well and occasionally I even had to take it in to a mechanic.
There is a story of a man in Texas who approached some fitness instructors about his over weight dilemma. This guy had been on bed rest for several years because of an infection he had. He was over his original health issue but he was now in a spot where he felt unable to regain his health.
Remember our bodies are full of water which is often associated with healing, and in most societies the act of moving water is the response of life. A moving stream of water, a bubbling pool, a swirling ripple in a stream offer oxygen, life, and activity and is what stirs up a healthy body of water. A stagnant pool only contains dead things and parasites like leeches and other nasty things. Now is the time to take responsibility for your lack of life giving exercise, change your environment to effect change and get involved in a kickboxing or Yoga class at
