What a week, I broke 270 this morning coming in at 269.2 and broke 20% body fat Saturday coming in at 19.63. I have now lost around 26 pounds of fat and put on about 8 pounds of muscle. Things are good.

That being said, the workout last week was great. I got up every morning M-F at 0500 and worked out (either aerobic or weights). I have to admit that I was dragging butt most of the day, but towards the end of the week I was beginning to adapt. The body is a wonderful thing!

Last week the first week of the mass phase of my workout requiring 12 reps per set on the power moves, 8-12 reps on the assitance moves. I in order to keep the reps at twelve I had to increase the weight on the Bench and the Squat. However, I may have been able to increase weight on Deads, just doing twelve somewhat in a row was challenge enough.

Following are my numbers for week 1.

Lat Pulldowns 12*105, 9*180, 8*165 and a Stripping set

Well, that was my week, I think I might add another tricep exercise, as there was no burn in that area later and I missed it. It might also be helpful to move the tris to another day away from chest, but that will happen next revolution, not this one. Shoulders I hit hard but are never sore. However, they are getting stronger.

Overall a good week.
