i fluctuate, anywhere from 190-195 lbs. i think (or maybe blindly hope) that i've dropped a bit of body fat the past few weeks. btwn the ec stack, me cutting what i guesstimate to be about 500 cals from my diet, and that stomach flu i had a week and half ago my mid section appears a touch trimmer.

modified 8 min ab routine
so i played around w the workout a bit. my squats haven't been so great lately so i dropped the weight on my second working set to give myself some more juice for my third. that seemed to feel a little bit better than last week. got to deads and was still feeling pretty charged up. got to my last set at 405 and went for it. i could tell right away the straps weren't helping. the bar just wasn't sitting right in my palms but i knew i could handle the weight. went and grabbed the chalk, took a good 5 min rest and went in again. fuckin nailed it perfectly.
i'm still smiling like a proud dad watching his only son who made it

ran to the beach and back from the house i was staying at in the hamptons, got damn that heat and humidity were brutal as ****. had to get it in before i started celebrating the 4th though.

Saturday 11am: Cardio
5 miles, ~48mins
same run as wednesday, heat and humidity were even worse , damn near pacing 10 min miles . still a great workout though.
so i was out of town from tues - sun staying out east. i went to some random gym out there and paid 2 days of guest pass fees. the gym was sufficient, had all the equip i needed. but def not worth the fee they charged. i skipped chest/arms sat and ran instead then took sun off. i'm definitely happy to be back at my gym though, makes me appreciate what i get for all the money i spend every month.

so how long have you been on phat now? whats ya energy like?
i work a physical job and had to switch out because i was too burnt out every day from PHAT
i started last fall (actually right after labor day 2011).
i've had to take a week every here and there off to deload, the program is hugely taxing for sure. and i don't even have a physical job. i work decently long hours but i'm sitting in front of a computer all day.
funny you should mention, i'm actually having one of those weeks where i'm kinda feeling sluggish and not so into the idea of lifting. im leaving work early today and all the locations of my gym are closed for their "corporate picnic" (whatever the **** that is) from 12-4pm. i have sufficient equipment in my apartment building gym to get the workout done but i can already tell there's going to be a 50/50 shot of me going once i get home.
so yeah, it's not just your job, the program is for sure draining. but it is without question the most progress i've ever made in the shortest period of time.
