Back to exercise?

Jogged two miles today and yesterday. Well OK, more like jogged one mile, walked the rest. I’m working my way up.

I’m also trying to do push-ups and crunches whenever I think of it — my goal is to have noticeable abs by the time summer rolls around. I read a couple fitness websites, and they all agreed that you need to have at most 10% body fat before you start seeing your abdominal muscles. To that end I’ve been eating less. Hope I can keep it up, because I’m getting hungry… :(

Doing some work on my game. Found a library that adds an explode() function that does the same thing as PHP’s build-in explode(). I’m going to use this for loading custom levels in my breakout game.

Aaaaaaand there was something else I was going to say but, as usual, I forgot it. Yay. I’m gonna go eat.

Crunches versus sit-ups — I didn’t even know there was a differnce.

Until just now, I had no idea there was a difference between a crunch and a sit-up. However, I just looked at the Wikipedia page for crunches, and lo! there is a difference. Apparently, in a crunch you only lift the upper back off the ground, while in a sit-up you lift “everything superior to the buttocks…”

So last night, I guess I performed 160 sit-ups. Yay for me.
