I AM still working out daily with essentially the same level of intensity that I was before. I’ve just moved my tracking of it to a paper journal so as not to bore you all to tears.
Oh, and by the way…

Saturday, July 25th and Sunday, July 26th
I didn’t do any “official” exercise over the weekend. Instead I counted the 8-10 hours of physical labor I put in on the new room as my workouts. Pretty sure it’s a fair trade.

* One of my co-workers pointed out that my form was way off on my curls and that I needed to keep my arms closer to my side to maximize the benefit I was getting AND prevent myself from getting injured. Doing them properly has forced me to back off on the weight.

No freakin’ idea what’s going on with the bicep curls in those last two sets but not only was I not able to go up at all I couldn’t complete a set I’ve done several times already. Maybe I stressed my muscles out too much increasing on the other machines. I think I’m finding the weights I need to work with for a few constant workouts. Overall, though, I’m kinda dissappointed with this one.

I have decided to re-boot my situp challenge paying close attention to form and allowing the full one second hold time on the crunch. While I can still do 80 I’m not getting 200 in at this point methinks.
