Bees!


So I was doing my jumps this morning outside and I had the great pleasure of snapping some shots of some bees (Honey Bees and Bumble-bees I think) I hope you enjoy the shots down at the bottom!

So anyway I am totally surprised at how fast my cardio-abilities are improving. I did all 1000 jumps today in sets of 200 and I didn't get winded in the least I think I hit the perfect pace all the way through. 

So a little update on how my workouts are doing. I am doing really good with most thing but cant hit the max range of the reps we were given on 4 exercises. I'm not to worried because I can hit any where in the range we are allowed OK so I'm not falling behind. But the 3 I am having the most difficulty with are the pull-ups (first time I did them I had my hand the wrong way and they were a lot easier that way) the curls I can get max reps on 2 sets, and both shoulder-flys (forward and side) I can only get max on the first set. So it seems my shoulders biceps and back need the most work right now.

Hopefully I will see just as much progress there as I have with my Jump-roping.

So Have a great day everyone enjoy these little creatures as much as I did!

Whoa, awesome photos Nate. When you view the full size version it feels like you're knee-deep in pollen working right alongside them.

Thanks man! I know what you mean I can't believe how they get so covered in pollen it's almost funny to see them like that.

It's a testament to how good mother nature is at getting the job done. That little bee is going to spread that pollen all over the place and probably make 10 more flowers!

But just looking at those pictures made my allergies flare up!
