I have some light pain in my elbows and in my right bicep; I hurt my bi on Friday doing bench presses. So I’m cutting out upper body work until my bi feels right. Going to work legs with machines and do a lot of cardio, maybe go ahead and do hyperextensions on back day. Looks like a good time to cut some body fat and build some abs.

Been offline, it took me 3 weeks to move into my new place and another week to wire the house for TV, telephone and network. What kind of a contractor doesn’t install coax or phone wiring during a complete remodel? What a dumba$$!!
 
It took awhile but I finally got over my elbow and bicep pain. I took last week off from lifting and just did cardio. My main goal is weight lose so I’m still on track.
 
Started a new workout Sunday, it’s a mixture of German volume training and Max-OT.  I find I just don’t have a good enough foundation for a routine that’s all Max-OT. I was adding strength and size (uneven size) but it was just too hard on my relatively untrained body.
 
I found a picture of me before I started working out, I’ll scan it and get it up. I call it my “beached whale shot”. I don’t have any new photos yet; I think I’ll wait until the 6 month mark before I post them. That will be at the start of September.
