Just finished day 61. Legs and back were hard, I felt weak, maybe because the timing of my workout, or maybe because we went to the mid night premier for Breaking Dawn :-D and my body is out of system since I didn't go to bed until 2:30a. I know I know, I am a little too old for that, my routine life was interrupted by this out of routine activity so my body was paying for it all day today.
I did add weight on most of the leg exercises. As much as I felt lack of strength, I stuck with it and didn't pause or rest in between. I also changed from band to the pull machine for all my back exercise, I was pulling only 50lbs for most of the back exercise for 16 reps each time. This would be my base line, I will check against it in two weeks when I came back to this routine.
The week is almost over, Kenpo tomorrow, which is my favorite. I keep telling myself that now I am up my carb in take, I should have more energy. Although I don't exactly feel it while I was working out, I definitely noticed that I am not as fatigue as before (it also could be because I am now a stay home bum, and not nearly work as hard as before). I do believe that by increasing carb intake, I need to workout harder, I am worried a little bit that I will gain weight because of more carb intake. We will see.
