AUTiger13’s BodyBlog

Just finished another biweekly. Weight was the same, but my measurements dropped. It is funny how when this happens to my clients, I tell them this is the best possible news, but when it happens to me, I get ticked. I guess the whole goal is to just drop body-fat and not to focus on the weight. I mean the whole goal of the offseason was to come in heavier –ie– more muscle! My new program has some new lifts for me in it. Ones that I have never done. The first was a one-arm DB snatch. Definitely a great movement, but what I initially struggled with was my left arm. I am right handed and throwing that weight up with my right arm was great. My left, well, I was worried I was going to launch it accross the gym. Hopefully my form and confidence will improve with each time I perform this- I used a 60lb DB. I also had on-arm lateral throws. I like these a lot. These movements get you really winded too - I think I used 40lbs for these. And the last new one that I had was full contact twists. I thought those were going to be a breeze, but dang they were very hard. They are all in the clip that I put together at the bottom. So things seem to be coming together — it is always nerve racking when you have a deadline though. Here are a few progress pics from yesterday.

This is yesterday.

Here is full front shot…you can see where the legs are (hopefully) going to start coming down
