Another 2 pounds lost - making it 25 total pounds lost since day 1! Wooohoo! In perspective though - for the work I put in the last week, I would swear I should have lost more. Oh well, aside from "numbers" and from the perspective I see in the mirror (or in this case the photo below), I think I may have gained a bit of muscle or just shredded pounds from the core area. Lean body mass has increased and my body fat percentage is now down to 17%. As per this body fat measurement website , I now fall in the category of "Fitness" and no longer at an "Acceptable" body fat percentage. Cooooool...A good pat on the back for me and another milestone reached. =) In a way I'm not surprised with the visual results this week as the core/ab exercises in conjunction with increased cardio has not only shown it's results, but has totally worn me out!! I won't lie, this last week was not easy.....Each and every day that included weight training and cardio, I swear I was about to collapse! Despite the huge challenge on my body, I never gave up(as usual) and made sure each exercise was completed to the "T". I am only 14 days away and I ain't given up now.... =)
As for today's commitments, the cardio scheduled today was suppose to be 20 minutes circuit training, where I exceeded it by another hour on top as I used this time to go rolla' blading outside. I took many sprints with the blades throughout my cardio time and worked extra hard on the uphill paths. Tiring as hell, but overall good times due to great views, great people and great weather. Summer's not gonna last very long, so I gotta take advantage of these sunny days. =)

Day 61 / Week 9 - Sweating Bullets
Holy sh!t the workout today was a challenge! I swear I was on the verge of collapse. Lot's of cardio, abs and weight training today - all squeezed within an hour. Since wifey was gone with the car and wanted to go to the store, I strapped on the blades after a 30 min break from my workout and took approximately 10 min to get there and 10 min to get back. Took in 2 scoops of protein and got some rest. I don't think I ever sweat this much since I started. With more workouts like this, I could just imagine what I'm gonna look like when this month is done. Little Riddick, here I come.... ;-)
