So o have been informed by my coach that I misinformed people on my last bench post. It was not 135 for speed. The band turned it into 185 for speed work. I was not aware I was supposed to add the weight resistance of the bands. Woops
 
You are stronger than you know!
 
Rest day. From lifting anyway!

I understood there was added resistance. I'd still keep track of the 135 though. The band resistance is max at the top, and you may switch up bands in the future.

Ok So today was a not so good morning that turned out to be a great one. My brother in law is in the hospital so we have been watching his kids which has been stressful. Then my lifting partner send me a message and said he wouldn't be able to lift in the morning due to getting home at 2 AM. So I was determined to get some lifting in anyway so I decided to dust off the old home gym weights.

Well I tried my best. I had my pre workout and had some Lil Wayne blasting but the massive amount and reoccurring spiders I decided to give up on my workout. I went back inside to sit on the couch next to my defeat.

Then the lifting gods answered and I got a surprise message from my lifting partner saying. Im up do you still want to lift this morning. I said hell yes and I was off to the gym!

After the workout I decided to get on the scale and see how my progress was going after a few days of bad eating and no cardio due to the extra kids and my treadmill being in a room with the 4 year old.

The scale read 223. Normal fluctuation for myself as I was 221 on thursday. So I decided to get back on the BF% Machine although I don't trust it too much the numbers still show positive improvement for the month!

As you can see Im down 5lbs and 2% BF in less than 30 days. I am supper proud of that and I should hit my goals soon!

Stay Strong!
 
Awesome workout! Congrats on the BF reduction! Spiders? You have spider issues in the garage gym?
