Weighed in a 220 today. I guess I have been 220-223 for the past week or so, but, considering my super bowl sunday meal, I am ok with that. I will get some measurements done later today though cause its measurement day!
Diets been consistent, although I am still going through some cheese that was bought just before I read Tims suggestion of not allowing it. Once that's all gone, I will be cheese free.
The cold shower was actually fantastic after the gym yesterday. 10 minute no problem. I think I am getting used to them.
My lifting routine will be the Occam's Protocol A & B Tim suggests starting out with. My little brother is coming along for the ride too. I will try to get him to get his measurements etc. asap.
I used the 5 seconds down/5 seconds up approach to failure.
Weight is individual dependent. Mine will probably change, especially in the pull-down because my hands have no callouses (computer nerd), so my hands almost gave up before my back did.
Protocol A (Monday)
Pull-down: 12 reps x 40 lbs --> 8x 60 lbs
Machine Shoulder Press: 12 reps 25 lbs --> 8 reps x 50 lbs
Protocol B (Thursday 2/10/2011)
Incline Press - machine - TBD
Seated leg press - TBD
Stationary bike - 3 mins 85 rpm for lactic acid reduction

Turns out I am not as good at skimming as I once thought. I "read" the protocol 3 minutes before I left the gym and somehow the ONE SET UNTIL FAILURE didnt sink in. I did 2. FOR BOTH PROTOCOLS. I could barely walk today after the leg routine. Quite sore in the AM I am sure. ***
