Man, what a busy week. The gym has been busy, and that is very good for me and the gym. I've decided to back away from the Catalyst workouts due to a dead, heavy, leaden feeling in my legs since I started. I will for sure use some of the things I learned there. My new eating patterns are getting more and more solid and I feel great. I've lost a couple of pounds and feel like I look a little better. I've hit some PR's lately and generally have a good deal of energy. I've stuck to a roughly 90% compliance rate with avoiding grains, gluten and sugar. My protein intake is up, but I could definitely stand to eat more vegetables. The lack of veggies is due to sheer laziness. It's no harder to make a salad than it is to cook bacon, it's just that the bacon tastes soooo good. My week of training was sparse, but here we go starting with Thursday.

1 x 135#, 165#, 185#, 185#, 205#fail, 205#

In order to be the source of motivation I believe every coach should be, I did Tabata rowing with Gumby.
