I finished up Week 3 strong, which is ironic because it is strength week (weak) and the new exercise format can be killer. I have found that I am in better shape than I thought because I have had to put at least one of the exercises in the regiment to a higher level in order to get to muscle failure. I still haven't quite gotten there except during the Pull day, which I suck at. Never had much time to fail at pull ups. I guess I need to make time now.
Eating has been a little easier however I have found that it is nigh impossible to stay vegetarian when traveling and visiting relatives. One helpful discovery is that my watch works as a gym timer in a pinch (since I forgot mine). Another fun discovery that I found out was the elliptical machine. I have decided that strength exercises alone are not going to cut it for me. They haven't in the past, why should they now? I stepped onto my in-law's elliptical and was going forward for x number of minutes and backwards for the same amount of time. That was killer.
Anyway, I have decided to defer weighing in to every two weeks. At least then I can be disappointed half as many times a month. Here's to finishing week 4 and starting supersets next week.
