As I write this post, I’m a bit bummed… I took some progress pictures, and found myself severely disappointed… I’ve dropped weight, and body fat, but find myself nowhere near where I need to be for a contest… I could make excuses… Surgery, being number one… But no matter what, it doesn’t change the fact that I am just not where I feel I need to be… I’ve invested a lot of time, money, and effort… But that still doesn’t change facts… Between a lot of visceral fat, lack of chest and lat development, and retaining a lot of back fat I’m just not there… So, I’ll be doing a heavy duty mental inventory to decide what I will do…

2 sessions of 45 min of puppy walk on the hill terrain…

Totally drained, as it was a 50 gram carb day… And, sore as hell this morning… Getting dressed was a chore all by itself…

Well, this past weekend was less than stellar… So, it’s time to add some twists and turns to the cardio… I’ll still be doing the 2 sessions of puppy power walking on hilly terrain… But, I’ll be doing it with a 30 lb vest on… Days set aside just for abs and cardio are now being hit with Billy Blanks Ab Bootcamp and Billy Blanks Cardio Bootcamp… I’ll still be doing the treadmill on days I’m at the gym… The 50/50/75/100 carb split is still in effect… Hopefully this will change things around…
