Today I finally broke 100! No, I did not lose 100 lbs, luckily I don’t need to lose that much. But I broke the 100 kg (220.5 lbs) mark today. I have been hovering around 100 kg for the past week, I got as low as 100.1 on 11/30/2009 then again yesterday. And today I [...]
Today was chest day again. The soreness from Monday is gone so I could hit the machines hard. I only did two exercises today but they totally drained me. As I have mentioned, I’m doing reduced reps with more weight. I forgot the check just how light my incline and decline presses have been and [...]

I’m not sure if it’s possible to cut my calories any closer to my target. Well I guess it is theoretically possible to get 2 calories closer but that would be pretty tough. I wasn’t really planning on being this close it just sort of happened. I had one of my usual breakfasts, 4 oz [...]
I ran out of Nature’s Best Low Carb Isopure, Dutch Chocolate so I had to make a decision. Do I buy more of this stuff or do I try something else? The Isopure wasn’t bad, it was actually the most decent stuff I have found so far. I have had some store brand protein, both [...]
The soreness from my shoulders is gone and my back feels fine too. I have changed up my reps again, I’m going to shoot for 10 from now on and see where it takes me. Today was legs and abs day. My legs feel pretty crappy after working them hard but since they are the [...]
Tonight I was really really close to skip the evening cardio session. I had legs for strength training at lunch and I felt like I needed a break so bad. But once I got on the elliptical I was fine. Sure, my intensity was pretty low tonight but it was better than going straight to [...]
Today was seafood day. Unlike my days that used to be “see-food” days where if I saw food I ate it today was shrimp and halibut. Based on calories I could have afforded to have a small piece of chocolate tonight as well but I choose not to. I’m trying to stay 100% clean, at [...]
Unlike last time where I almost didn’t get the pictures done, tonight was probably the fastest I have ever gotten them completed. My kids were barely in bed and I already had the pictures taken and processed. This is how I like it! It leaves me more time to do other stuff in the evening. [...]
The bad news is that I’m pretty sore today from yesterday’s chest exercise. The new 3×8 with more weight is definitely getting to my wimpy protein storage some would call muscles. The good news is that I’m sore in the muscles and I think my shoulder is fine. I was really worried about it yesterday [...]
