Getting In Shape, February 11th 💪🏻
Weight Loss This Week
This week it's been kind of like 2 steps forward, 1 step back. But overall I'm down about 1.4 lbs since I started about a week ago. I started this process 227 and woke up today to 225.6. It hasn't been the best weekend eating wise but still, a step in the right direction.
Down to 225.6 from 227.
My Workouts This Week
I also managed to get in a strength workout today which felt great. Unfortunately, it's been raining pretty hard this weekend so I did not make it on my long run like I planned. Hopefully I'll be able to do that sometime this week.
My workout consisted of:
- 5 sets of pull ups, until failure on each set
- 5 sets of push ups, 15 reps or until failure
- 4 sets of overhead dumbbell press with 30 lb dumbbells, 6 reps each
- 4 sets of 30 bicycle ab kicks
I felt great afterwards and I'm sure my arms are gonna be feeling this tomorrow. Glad to see my pull up ability seems to be increasing.
Goal Tracking
My first goal is to be 205 lbs by June 1st. At my current pace of weight loss it might be a little tough so I'm gonna need to start working harder.
Hopefully next week will finally be the week that I see numbers in the 210s again.

Congrats! One step at a time.
Thanks! One step at a time indeed
Congrats! But i would advise you to not make 5 sets of push ups until failure! This might seem like it's the best way to make progress, but mostly it's not. Especially for beginners. Sometimes less is more! Trust me, try to find the right amount of reps and do 5 sets or whatever you want and your general outcome will increase! There are many articles out there about training to failure, better build your own opinion about that!
But most important, keep up your good work!
