Since I went to the BSN supplements and cut the cokes… Well, most of them.  Did have two for the week, but down from the 7-8 a week before.  Strange part, the weight dipped a little, but overall wasn’t affected.  I thought it would show more, but I am noticing serious gains in the weights, and sure this is a combo of the cutting back on soda and supplements I’m taking.  Did like the body fat was cut significantly, so the only thing I can attribute the maintained weight is increased protein intake and some moderate muscle growth.  Just will keep an eye on that.  Also upped my water intake from a glass or so a day to between 90-110oz per day.  Didn’t think my kidneys were ready for that… going to the bathroom every 2 hours or so is new.  Guess I know what it’ll be like later if I have prostate problems.  Hopefully, the fat cutting keeps up and if so, plan on 12-14% by end of June and 10% by July… Almost to the goal then.  Hoping to start seeing some good abs definition by then.

Wow, haven’t entered something in a long time on here. Over the last 3 weeks, I’ve worked out 4 days a week and gotten in 1 cardio day and then another 2 hrs of walking with my wife and baby now that the warm weather arrived. The workouts have been Sunday- Chest/Tri Monday- Back/Biceps Tues-Legs/Shoulders Wed-circuit training (2 sets of each w/ 10 reps and then a third in whatever I feel I was lacking in. Thursday is kicking around the soccer ball on a field near work for 30-45mins. Forgot how much my lungs were out of shape. Doing the treadmill and elliptical has been fine on the muscles, but the stop and start and interval sprinting in soccer put my lungs through a ringer last week. Gonna have to keep that up. Always liked that feeling that I was getting old gunk out when I just get started running outside again. Should be gone in the next 2 weeks with only 1-2 days outdoors running. I also cycled off the San V-12 turbo and the San Infusion protein powder last week. I took four days off and I haven’t seen any really drastic improvements, so a change was needed. Cut off all soda as of Saturday the 19th, and started up on the BSN NO and BSN Cellmass for recoup after working out. I also picked up a 1500mg Amino complex from the Vitamin Shoppe. Since then, granted only 4 days, I dropped 2lbs. Also, my workouts go about 20% longer and I’m not as tired during and after the workout. Well, never really was that tired, just sore. Sure this mostly is due to the cutting out the 16oz soda a day, but once you start a program, you have to ride it out to make sure you are seeing the results. Going to reasses when I go through the two BSN products, but so far so good. The reasses should be in about 1 month.
