I didn’t workout much last week as I was in Germany on business and I didn’t get to the gym that much.  I’m back at it hard again this week with lifting before work and then doing abs and cardio after work.  They turn into long days but I like the way I feel.  I’ll have to keep up the carb intake as before I was getting a little weak towards the end of the week when I did two-a-days.  I also started playing football so I also have that keeping me busy on the weekends.  I think last week was like an small rest and now I’m ready to hit it hard again!!

I’ve been thinking alot and I’ve got alot of feedback from alot of different people.  How many reps should I be doing to burn fat but keep the muscle that I have?  Should I do 8-10-12 or 10-12-15 rep sets?

I don’t like the weight to much but with me lifting weights I figure that I’m building muscle.  My body fat went down about 3%.  That’s awesome!!!  I’m a quarter of the way done with my training and I’m loving it so much.  I had a gym at the gym get in my head and that ruined my lifting a little bit but I got over it.  I’m going to be hitting it hard again on Monday.  Monday I start lifting in morning and doing cardio in the afternoon.  I’ll keep everybody posted.

I’m feeling awesome today.  I just started doing 20-30 minutes of cardio before work and then when I get off work I lift weights.  It’s taking alot of focus to keep me doing this but it’s going to be worth it in the end.  I’ve already seen alot of changes in the weight I’m lifting.  I’m not completely trusting the scale as I figure that I’m building muscle along with losing fat.  I get measured on Friday so I’ll post my new measurements then.
