Week 36/37
Had my first setback of sorts. Went to the family cottage for nearly a week and have no lifting gear there and didn’t eat right and came home two lbs heavier and up a % in the BF. Damn. It’s hard to eat right there because my dad does all the cooking and he makes nothing healthy (can we say mountains of comfort food?) and woe be unto him who tries to vary the set-forever-in-concrete menu… My dad thinks working out and exercising and all that is a lot of rubbish so I don’t even try to get into the menu stuff… not worth the battle. Oh well. Just gotta do more swimming when we go again in another week. I did some swimming but obviously not nearly enough.
I did get a decent tan and my arms especially are looking a bit better. The tricep definition is much better with the tan. Meanwhile I will lift like crazy for the eight days that we’ll be home before heading to the cottage again, hopefully I will work off the extra fat from this time to make room for the next! I guess I could think of these trips as a mini-bulk… or something.
I took a few pix today of the tan and made a comparison pic between this summer and last summer and posted it in my pix section. Even being up a smidge in the weight, the comparison is pretty good. I didn’t start lifting seriously until a few months after last summer’s pic, but the side-by-side is still pretty dramatic… and keeps me liftin’.
