    Haha, I'm doing a really challenging chest and shoulder workout tomorrow so I put one of my "muscle" (such as they are.....LOL) pics up to encourage myself.

    Cardio: 3 mile walk with the dog this morning. She's been limping a little so she's on restricted activity.....no running. I'll run without her a couple of days but felt too guilty this morning leaving without her so we walked.

    Strength: Tomorrow

    Assessment: Still struggling a little to get back into my groove but I'm getting there. I haven't gained but haven't lost and with only a small amount still to lose I guess that's to be expected some weeks.

    Hope you're all doing great!

    @luluinca loving your new PP, your back looks awesome!

    Happy Hump Day gang,

    I didn't workout this morning, couldn't drag myself out of bed! maybe because I knew it was a cardio day!
    Have been going based on my workout plan, doing all the strength training and weekend cardios

    strength: not today

    Cardio: later, when I get home, a workout from Tapout XT, not sure which one yet

    Ok, I have stopped the bulking and have gotten back to my pre-bulk macros since Monday. I weighted myself on Sunday, 131.5 lbs. kinda like 12 lbs heavier than my starting point, so, started back to pre-bulk and today, I weighted at 127.2 lbs. I assume most gone, is the water weight but still, a good chunk. hoping from the remaining, I get rid of fat and retain the lean muscles, let's see how it will be played!

    My dog is on the disabled list and not allowed to run with me for awhile so we switched things up this morning.

    Cardio: Took Penny Lane on a 1.25 mile walk then dropped her off at home and ran by myself for 2.33 miles. I didn't run as far as normal but it was good for her to at least get a little walk in.

    Strength: Not today

    Assessment: Hanging tough, not really losing but not gaining either.

    Strength: 3 Prong Strong, Deadlift Strength again lifting 85% of 1RM

    Cardio: Tapout last night almost killed me for real! have been concentrating on lifting and not much cardio, seems I have lost the endurance big time! my heart was pumping so hard during the workout, it was really hurting and making it hard to breath! need to add more cardio, and own Tapout again!
