Week 4 begins - 66 days to go!
I feel absolutely fantastic going into this week. I was pleasantly surprised to see that I’m now halfway to my weight loss goal with so much time remaining. Although I post weekly progress pics to keep myself honest and motivated, I think that this is the first week where you can see a marked change.
I gave myself 2 days of rest as opposed to 1 for the previous two weeks. You definitely have to let those muscles recover properly. I also believe that keeping up a clean diet and the benefits of supplementation are working wonders. I was a fool for not paying attention to my protein intake when I was a young gym rat.
Some of the real highlights of the week included two more killer upper body workouts and abs every day of training. More specifically, when I work abs everyday, there’s always variation. For example: day 1 - with weights, day 2 - obliques, day 3 - upper and middle, day 4 - lower. I’m looking forward to really seeing those abs pop out but I know that’s all a matter of eating right, stepping the cardio up and keeping the right supplementation going.
This week, I’m looking forward to going from one hardcore leg day to two moderate days and kicked-up-sweat-within-five-minutes cardio.
