Wow, talk about a burst of energy, this week is evaluation week, to see where I am at with my training.<\/p>\n
Seems like I am well ahead of where I thought I was in benching, not so much in cardio.<\/p>\n
I hit the elliptical first and was able to burn a measly 265 calories. \u00a0The intent was to go to the treadmill and try to squeeze out another 240 calories to bring my burn count to 500 calories.<\/p>\n
That didn’t happen because I started to cramp. \u00a0My legs would not go. \u00a0I guess I am not in good shape.<\/p>\n
So I decided to go\u00a0anaerobic\u00a0and hit the bench.<\/p>\n
I did a 45lb plate on each site with no problem, I knew that would be OK, but I think the No Xplode kicked in, and suddenly I wanted to bench more, I pushed it to two plates, that’s 225lbs, just 1 rep, but I felt good about it.<\/p>\n
Next week is the actual start of training, where I weigh in every morning. \u00a0I give myself 10 weeks, that brings me to Dec 1, to lose 20lbs. \u00a0In the way is Halloween and Thanksgiving. \u00a0We’ll see how it goes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
