in class ... managed to maintain exercise but diet varied
After 4 days of muscle recuperation and rest I'm back at it.� Sculpt routine this a.m. and coming up on morning snack time.� Weight this a.m. 215.� Still not seeing any real dramatic changes especially on the scale but have bound myself to keep at it relentlessly until I attain the body I am seeking to have.
Usual exercise and diet today.� Heading out for a couple of days for the prayer advance but will be able to do my thursday and saturday workouts.� Diet will be non-standard for a couple days.
Looking forward to a couple days away.� Am hoping the extra rest will help my body recoup a bit and give the muscles time to grow.
Same as per usual.� Fortunately the rain stopped and I was able to bike today.� The cardio routine is still tough but am beginning to notice some increasing strength and firmness through my check and lats.
Weight, only 5 pounds down from beginning, still no indicator of progress but fit of clothes and appearance moreso.� Should have done measurements at the beginning but will remember to do when 30 day mark hits.�
Usual morning routine.� Running a bit behind on my morning snack at the moment.
Got a pair of pants buttoned with ease that I had to suck in to wear for quite some time now.� Stomach beginning to flatten out a bit but still a very apparent layer of fat.
Typical Sunday in that normalizing diet and eating times is especially rough on the weekends.
Up around 8.� Did the 40 minute sweat and abs routine and then had a breakfast of 4 egg whites.� Went out for a 25 mile bike ride on the trail and mid ride stopped and had a 30 gram protein bar and a bottle of iced star bucks coffee.� Killed a 20 oz bottle of water on the return trip.� While I still struggle with parts of the workout and it winds me at points I'm feeling the difference in my lats, arms and shoulders.� The slow and frustrating part will definitely be waiting for the layer of fat to burn away to reveal the muscle I'm building.� From progress pictures I've seen at beachbody.com it would seem that begins to become visible starting around the 60 day mark so I've still got about 7 weeks to go.� Since I'm out of town two days next week and my eating/exercise will not be on task I'll not be counting those two days in this chronology.
