Health & Fitness: The Road to 40 (Week 3)

Yet another week has passed; the official count? FIFTEEN! ! !

Yep, that’s right, five more days at the gym! The only difference this week was that on Thursday, my bus got stuck in traffic due to an accident and was 20 minutes late getting downtown. This drastically reduced the time available to workout so I had to adjust the routine. Instead of lifting weights, I just concentrated on cardio.

Unfortunately, I am not doing as good of a job with the fat apparently. My average weight for the week is now up to 212 lbs; 12 lbs above my goal. That means that I’ve increased muscle mass but since the pants don’t seem to be any looser, the partial spare tire is still exactly where it has been. Probably what will happen is that fat from everywhere else will go away before the stomach so I’ve a ways to go before seeing that disappear. Did I mention that I’m a rather impatient person and want immediate results?

Anyway, woot! for the third straight week… boo! for the weight increase (but that was not entirely unexpected).

On to week four!
