The Manhattan Project

My monitor went kaput - I just had a chance today to go pick up a new one. I'll update the blog in the tomorrow hopefully Monday at the latest

Eye of the Awesome

The post exhaust sets are pretty efficient I can do the whole workout in about 40 mins, and I'll hit every body part 3 times a week (in a 6 day rotation). Not much else to say at the end of this week I'll take some new measurements.

The most improvement I've seeing this last few days is in my back. I snapped a picture of my back this morning for documentation. I wish I had a before picture for comparison because I defiantly see growth there.
