Getting in shape with GSP

I have always joked "Round is also a shape" when ever I talked about getting in shape. But now when I have passed 30 year old and I sit in front of the computer at work all day and don't move much in the evening either, I realize I have to do something to prevent getting the belly my older family members have. I'm not a heavy guy (190cm/6'3" and at the moment 90kg/200lbs) nor do I want to be a heavy guy.

When I was young I played a lot of sports, but stopped before finished school.
In my adult life I have done some half-ass attempts of getting in shape. I owned gym memberships, been out running, played badminton and baseball. But never done anything more then once a week and that don't really make that much difference.

My friend and colleague is much better than me keeping in shape, has more motivation and practise. He has many times tried to motive me, both on his own accord and when I tell him to motivate me. Motivation with different competitions and rewards. Never did anything REALLY motivate me, maybe that's why I never stuck to anything.

The latest thing my friend recommended me was to try is Georges St-Pierre RUSHFIT, a training program with a MMA fighter and made by his trainer Erik Owings. I started it and it is kind of a chock to my routine.
From doing something once a week to following a program six days a week, for eight weeks.

"Fuck no! My lazy ass will never stick with this. I wouldn't be surprised if I quit before the first week is over." is what I said to my friend.

I just finished my THIRD week. This is unprecedented for me. I have never stuck with any training program this long, and I have no intention to quit any time soon. I don't know what it is about the GSP RUSHFIT that fit me so well, but it does.

It might be Erik Owings, the trainer, that make the program so good for me. He says time and again that "It is okay if you need to rest", "It is okay if you do this easier version of this exercise". This really works for me. It gets a bit repetitive but for me it is GOLD. I don't respond well to the "drill sergeant" type of motivation, but a "go at your own pace and do your best" type of motivating works.

About the actual program with the schedule and the exercises and all that I don't know if it is good or not since I have no frame of reference. It works for me because I can do it without any hassle at home with only a simple pair of dumbbells and a soft exercise mat.

I give it a 10/10 for ME. It might not be as good for you so take that rating with a grain of salt.

I had no before-picture taken and wont have after-pictures taken. I am doing it to FEEL better rather than look better. If I FEEL stronger, less tired and more healthy, then I have reached my goal. So far that is the case so I will stick with it for all of the eight weeks.
