Yesterday was chest and back. I love push ups and am a push up machine. However the opposite is true for pull ups. LOL. 1st week ! could only do 3-4 of each unaided now I can do 5-6 unaided. I shoot for 12 of each and have to use a chair to do them but I really try to use my upper body strength as much as possible. (I wonder if I could get Lats like Bruce Lee?)I had a series of job interviews this morning and am at work until 3:00 AM tonight So i had to skip Plyometrics. I'll do it Sunday instead of taking a break. (those squat jumps kick my ass too!!

The more I think about it the more I've decided I really like this routine. I'm used to the more traditional approachto working out legs in the gym: squats, leg press, etc... Legs feel that they get a good workout during those times but the over all amount or leg exercises is small compared to what I go through in this program. Plus I feel like I worked more parts of my legs doing all these different exercises. Throw in all the pull ups and it is a great workout.

Yoga is a good mixer in the middl eof these workouts I feel. It get everything strecthed out and enhances recovery for me. My only complaint for yoga is that it is too long. However I worked through it and completed the DVD again. Still need to work on my balance LOL

Another great workout today!! I did better than the first time around and was able to add a little bit more weight to my workout but by the end I was down to 10 pounders again. However since this was about all I could lift I feel as if I was right on target. Still feel the burn in my back from a couple of days ago which is good. I want to make sure that my back is gettigna good work out too. Diet is going well Today it chicken and broccoli and some tuna snacks!!

So today was chest and back day again. Another good workout in the books. I do have some concerns that I'm not working my back out enough since I use a chair when I do pull ups. Quite frankly though at this time I think I'd only be able to do a couple of each type without using the chair. I think my fears were allayed since it is now several hours later and I feel that good soreness in my back. If my back feels sore tomorrow I'll feel as if I've done my job. Also I think next week I will use a a little bit heavier weight on this exercise. Go to 25's or 30's. the diet is still doing good though I did sneak a coke on Sunday while watching football!! Looking towards Plyo tomorrow just have to make sure to not overwork my quads so I can stay on pace when legs and back comes around!!
