PLYO

Week 9 Plyo. I couldn't wait to tackle the PLYO Monster today. I was hiding under HIS bed last night. Breathing, just breathing. I would hear him whimper under his covers. This was the first time I tackled it without, what I call Victims. No one to workout with so I was a little intimidated cause we all know it is easier to bring it if you are trying to do better then the person next to you. Well I didn't need that motivation today cause I crushed it. I would say I completed 95% of the workout at the DVD's pace. And anyone who has tried it, That's F-ing tough! I worked out in the garage again. My neighbors might think I'm crazy. I'm going to stay off the scale for the whole week. See if my diet is working. I am 11 pounds away from my 28 pound weight loss goal. I picked 200 lbs and 11% BF when I started. I am 211 and 14.6% BF.

Chest/Back Week 9

I haven't did that workout in 5 weeks. It was good to get back to but I forgot how hard it was. But I made some big progress. Last time I did it I could only do 4, yeah I know, 4 pullups without in a chair in the 6 sets. Today I did 22 unassisted. Tho e numbers aren't that impressive cause like the back and biceps workout this one works secondary muscles and that brings down my pullup #'s. So looking forward to the Legs & Back where hopefully I make big jumps on the #'s and make my goal of 100 pullups. Ab Ripper went pretty good today too. As usual the beginning is hard for me on my hip flexors and I have to take a rest or 2 for a couple seconds but I made it the whole rest of the way. I also did all the reps on the last exercise without stopping for the first time.

So got the dreaded Plyometrics tomorrow and looking forward to it. I am looking to crush it.

Week 8 Done!

Just finished Yoga. Best session yet. My buddy came over and did Yoga the other day and he manned up and did pushups in the middle of it the whole time. I hadn't yet tried it but I manned up today to spite him and it was awesome. I got my knees way up off the ground in upward dog and did the pushups. My flexibility is the best its been since high school. It may already be back to that point. Kind of hard to remember how good it was. But I can bring my nose back down to my knee when reaching for my toes.

Also like I said I upped my calories to 2500-2600 and today I weighed in at 211.4 lbs. That is probably due to the 3.5 hours of hanging shelves yesterday but I will see if the weight stays off.
I will recheck the body fat, weight and post some pics tomorrow.

Core Syn Week 8

Workout went really good today. I've decided that I am going to up my calories again and see if that helps me lose some weight. I have stayed about the same the last two weeks. So I will up them about 300 and see what happens. Then made some shelves today and cleaned and reorganized the garage. I also converted an old endtable into a stand for my powerblocks for the summer.
