Last couple of days I've been working resistance a fair bit more than I have done for a while, as I had been focusing so much on cardio. I've also lagged behind in my diet, but I don't think I went too far off-course. I can't imagine I put on a few lbs of muscle in a couple of days (2 or 3) but whatever, I still look OKish, so I'll take it! This weigh in is a lil past midnight, having eaten a fair bit more than usual (carbs, fat, and in cals) so perhaps this is just that. Also drank a fair bit of water.
Did quite a bit today, somewhat obsessively, because I really enjoy "the pump". Lots of full motion chin ups (neutral and close) and plenty of regular pushups. I tried out some more advanced pushup techniques, like the Hindu pushup and I plan to try out many more, just because I've been doing the same few pushup motions for a long time. (years) Did some usuals too, like arm raises, shrugs, and all that jazz.
Did a fair bit of situps and leg raises too, which feel great. Beneath the fat, my abs feel pretty good. The lower abs still need more work, but I'll get there. Mainly, just need to work harder to lose more body fat, because I'm sick of this sodding belly.
Wish I had a personal trainer, sometimes - I could do with being pushed even harder.
