I think you'll find as the muscle comes on losing the fat is easier...

I sure hope so! I'm tired of being fat.

Felt good today. Hit all reps again, added weight on both EDT exercises. I wonder if the reason for not missing any reps yet is due to the newbie factor?
Whatever the reason... I'll take it! Strength is definitely going well.

Felt good again today! Yeehaww!
increased leg curls by 5lbs today, and still got all reps, so thats nice.
Still feeling good, and I'm a little suprised b/c I thought moving to 1 on, 1 off was going to tire me out. but so far so good!

RobRegish · Post by **RobRegish** » Sun Nov 21, 2010 3:34 pm

Excellent! Now do try to stay ahead of the over-training curve. Meaning the SECOND you suspect it sneaking in, go to 1 on 2 off.

You're growing stronger (alot stronger) each workout so as the weights grow, so too do the stress on your body. You absolutely need some additional time to allow for supercompensation (growth/strength) to manifest.

GREAT work!

Rob- I want to say thanks for your dedication to this. You respond to every one of our logs, even at crazy times of the day. I look forward to your reviews of my workouts, and that's what keeps me logging it in every time.

So... Thanks man!

My pleasure.

I bought these courses in the past, I saw how they worked. They took your money and you never heard from them again. I'll be here until I'm not vertical anymore... for whatever that's worth.

OK that's a sign. Might want to consider inserting an extra rest day at this point...
