    Hey!

    Hit the gym 14 days straight. With my PPL split I feel like I get adequate rest inbetween all the muscles I work out. Also I was going a bit light on legs with my calf strain. I may take a rest day in a couple days. The gym just makes me overall more productive and to be honest happy.

    Strength: Legs- Barbell squat, Leg extension, Hamstring curl. Finally up to squatting a plate again

    Hey!

    Today was a difficult morning day. I weighed in and seemed to gain a lb from 5 days ago. I guess i'm a bit sensitive in the beginning of this journey that each weigh in is a bit more impactful. I know my weight fluctuates and i'm sure IF I weighed in tmw it would say I lose a lb but I took it a bit hard and ended up eating like 5 granola bars. Not the worst cheats but a small moment of 'adversity' that I overcame.

    Cardio: 30 mins elliptical

    Strength: Back/Bis-Planks, Weighted pull ups, weighted chin ups, bent over barbell rows, machine bent over rows, lat pull downs, barbell curl, superset db curl, barbell preacher curl,

    Assessment: Chicken stir fry

    Just need to remember that weight loss isn't linear. You could do the same exact diet and routine next week and lose 2lbs. The body reacts to different stimuli and no 2 days are exactly the same. Being consistent is what ensures that weight loss continues.

    Thanks for the reassurance. I know the plan, I just need to stay motivated and consistent. So far it's been good.
