Things have been going well. We are seriously upping my weights and I am seeing progress, especially with all that I am eating. I see Maik pretty much every time I am at the gym and he usually gives me a tip here and there. Today he got there in the middle of my workout and I told him I had up my trap bar dead lifts from 30 lbs on each side to 45 and he said that was good. I was on pull downs at this point and he came over and talked me through two sets first at the 130 that I was lifting and then he upped it to 140 on me and while I only made it through 8 (10 with his slight help) it definitely made a difference. he also told me that “you might have little biceps, who would have thought”. my other favorite thing was I told him my clothes were not fitting anymore and it was all his fault and he told me that “I should stop wearing my little brothers clothes” hah.
I felt really big at the end of my workout today, and I seem to be pretty steady at 180 pounds now. Maik says once I get to 190 I can start body building. I wanted to ask what I was doing if I wasn’t body building at this point. I feel a bit porky, but I pinch my stomach and it seems to be less than when I started if not the same. Have decide to up my workouts to lifting 4 days a week and cardio 2 days a week. still doing the step mill for cardio and maik says it is because my hamstrings are too short and the bike will only make them shorter. want to ask him about HIIT (High intensity interval training) but I’m willing to bet that he doesn’t want me doing that because my metabolism is high enough as it is. he said as I get more muscle my body will gradually lean out even more. Thats it for now, have to go eat. Will take progress photos soon
