In the 43rd episode of season five of the Chris Abraham Show, the host grapples with an array of life's intriguing challenges. The episode opens with Abraham acknowledging that there may not be anything of particular note happening in his life. However, he dives into his recent attempt to de-clutter his apartment during a two-day break from work. Despite his best efforts, he only ended up rearranging items and adding to the chaos, a result he ruefully notes as "very sad".
The domestic tasks don't end there; Abraham also shares his initiative to reduce the number of bags he owns. To achieve this, he's planning to send three bags full of other bags to his twin sister, Linda, who will sell them on eBay. These endeavors hint at a deeper aspiration - to live a more portable lifestyle, free from unnecessary possessions.
Next, the show takes a fitness-oriented turn. Abraham reveals he's been reading a book on hybrid calisthenics, a guide on bodyweight exercises for strength and fitness. Inspired by this, he's decided to start a new fitness routine at 2 PM. The program for the day includes three to five sets of push-ups and sit-ups, all assisted due to his self-confessed weakness. But that's just the starting point, he hints at an intention to incorporate suspension trainer workouts and other exercises into his regimen soon.
The podcast host doesn't stop at the in-home workouts. He also mentions considering using his 53-pound backpack for "sandbag training". This kind of training usually involves lifting and moving weighted bags, and Abraham shares his curiosity about integrating it with his routine. He mentions 'rucking', a type of training that includes strength and movement exercises using a backpack, as an inspiration.
The topic then shifts towards his wardrobe choices and their unexpected consequences. After switching from loose Eddie Bauer shirts to more form-fitting ones, he started receiving compliments on his noticeable weight loss. This prompts him to share his nutritional strategy - a one-meal-a-day regime, where he starts the day with a large breakfast (featuring ground beef and eggs) and then fasts for the rest of the day. He is determined to lose an additional 20-25 pounds in August, as he believes weight loss becomes more challenging during winter.
Abraham is also participating in a Concept 2 rowing challenge called "dog days of summer". The challenge demands increasing rowing distances over four weeks, starting from 10,000 meters in the first week. He plans to complete his rowing sessions while watching movies, adding a light-hearted element to his workout routine.
Throughout the podcast, the host is candid about the noise in the background, explaining that he plans to use Adobe AI's sound control feature to minimize it in the final version. There's also mention of him exploring a running app called Runna, and his plans to use their Couch to 5K training plan.
The episode winds down with Abraham sharing more about his day-to-day activities. He reveals his usual destination - the Arlington Public Library on Columbia Pike - where he spends most of his day, and his workout routines at Reed Park. These details add a personal touch to the podcast, giving listeners a glimpse into Abraham's regular routine.
Finally, Abraham reflects on his ongoing weight loss journey. He talks about the significance of appreciating incremental progress and acknowledges the health benefits he has already gained from losing 55 pounds. To him, it's not about the end goal, but the process and the small victories along the way. The episode concludes with this inspiring note, a perfect end to a podcast filled with everyday adventures, fitness goals, and life's simple pleasures.
