After a weekend of relaxing, I'm ready to go again.  I've noticed a big improvement in my upper body strength.  I can do 10 pushups without struggling on the last few, and I'm finally able to do full ROM dips.  I'm going to keep working on this and see how it goes.

11/26/08:

Legs are still really sore from two days ago, so I'll be resting those.

*Tabata Pushups for today

My first time doing tabata and it is really freaking hard.  First set I had around 15-20 but towards the last few sets I could only manage to do about 4.  I could only do about 3 reps for the last 2-3 rounds


I'm going to try and integrate this into my training more often.

Today I'm going to start getting tighter on my diet.  I'm going to start adding my food to FitDay to make sure I'm not overeating which would slow my fat loss.  Now, I only eat bread if it is accompanied with a good protein source.  My goal is to reduce my carb intake to below 200g a day, and then down to 150g a day.

My food can be seen here:
