    I've noticed over the last few weeks that even though I'm not following a "progressive overload" program as such, once I reach a cardio or strength goal I try to increase the intensity or add something new (incline bench, jumping lunges).

    That's different from the years I spent going to the gym hopping on the elliptical for 30-40 min at level 3, watching NCIS the whole time, then leaving, with some rowing or biking or swimming on the odd day. (Nothing wrong with NCIS, just saying.)

    Another thing: I like to keep my daily calories at 1500-1700 during this weight loss season. Yesterday I did a lot of working out and felt fatigued, so consciously added another 300 calories, mostly higher protein foods, at the end of the day.
