so my grades were good…..(but not excellent)……..i feel as if i could have got the same grades without giving up gym for that month…..(but who really knows?)
February was meant to be the ‘big strong come back month’……..for the 1st 1week (or so) it felt good, i cod feel the burn after a workout………but that faded away deep into the 2nd week……………but i did keep up the hard work at gym………i also noticed i got to work more on my shoulders (workout plan has since been edited) ………
all in all February got a 6.5/10….
P.S. thrilled that my girlfriend has joined me at the gym………. what the heck lets give Feb a 7/10

Hopefully i got that ratio right less gym : better grades!!!!!
Wish me luck

September
- Construct a workout plan
- Actually use the workout plan
- Keep my diet right
The month’s setup looked easy! I was all pumped and ready to go.
For objective 1 I did a lot of research (many thanks to bodybuilding.com). I had to figure out what worked best for me, so I decided to draw up two workout plans, the second plan to be tested in October. The first workout plan was a 4day split; all exercises were done in 4 sets and reps were kept between 12-15. The second plan (for October 2007) is heavier weights, 4 sets but lower reps and a few different exercises. I think plan 2 may work a little better for me.
Objective 2 was harder than it looked!!! The reason it proved difficult was because I got a few free gym passes for my friends just so they could come and keep me motivated, but when it got to the boring stuff they just wanted to skip it and move on. Another reason was the gym was sometimes full with people so I skipped a few exercises, because I did not want to wait in a queue, just to be rushed off it when it was my turn 
Objective 3. Well let’s just say I ate what I liked (cheat meals were very common). There was no real plan.
Overall September was an alright month :-)

August 2007
1) Join the gym
2) Stock up on chicken
3) Cut down on my work hours
4) Go gym, Eat, Nap, Eat, Repeat
But nothing ever goes according to plan!
So I managed to completed objective number 1 on my list. But I ran in to problems for numbers 2, 3 and 4. I never got around to buying chicken, tuna and turkey, because I ran out of money signing up to the gym (damn them things are expensive).
Long story short the amount of bills I had to pay shot through the roof, so instead of cutting my work hours I had to increase them; therefore giving me less time at the gym. Don’t say I could do both, because a typical shift is like 10 hours (with a half hour break). This obviously sent objective number 4 on my list out the window.
NEGATIVES OUT WEIGH POSTIVES THIS MONTH
Negatives include:- lack of sleep, Not enough food, Friends QUIT gym, Poor gym attendance
Positive include:- Hope for September is strong.
