26 Days Out!
Fortunately, I’ve been more focused and consistent with my diet and training than is reflected by the number of posts I’ve made to this blog! Last week was firm and set, and I managed to follow the pre-contest diet, with only 3 exceptions that I compensated for in my calorie totals! Training was heavy and hard on Mon, Tues, Thurs, and Fri. Some of the Youth that I work with at my church joined me on Monday, and enjoyed the exercise, although they were both plenty sore a few days after.
I have yet to weight myself and take new measurements, but will do so tomorrow morning on an empty stomach. The latest development is that I’m doing fasted cardio in the mornings for 20 minutes. This consists of mainly jump rope, and it’s a lot harder than I thought it would be. Body is still trimming up, and I’ve got some bodyfat to go before my abs pop out. The good sign is that my obliques are carving in and the fat is receding inward and downward from my chest.
