Dear reader,

My wife got me a Fitbit flex to better keep track of my cardio levels and see how that measures up to the amount of calories I am eating. I am quite sure I have it down at this point but the more accurate input one can have the better IMHO. Only been using it for 6h thus far so I can not review it yet but expect a full review at a later date.

Today was Legs day and again it is my favorite day. Lifting heavy, can not get much better I think.

Dear reader,

The amount of knowledge within these forums is quite vast and the respect I have it's members is truly great. There seems to be one flaw in our system, and this is where we post pictures asking for a body fat estimation! One month ago I posted some pictures and got some great feedback on what people thought my body fat was. Yesterday I posted yet another picture after losing 5.6lb (Keeping the same strength at the gym) and one guy said I am still 20% body fat. I guess that ...

Dear reader,

On Monday I changed the way I eat my food. Cut the food during the day in half and moved those calories to the dinner and night snack. This have made a huge difference in the gym. I always workout somewhere between 10.30 - 12.00 and once I switched the diet I have had zero problem pushing way more weights in the gym. Today was bench press day and I pushed 4-6 more reps on ALL exercises, it was kind of unreal. Felt like Hercules for a day! This really goes to show what a ...

Greetings,

Today I set a new record in deadlift, 88kg (193lb). I did once lift 160kg (352lb) but honestly, that I still have a back after that lift with such horrible form is quite amazing (I recorded myself). I decided to lower weight to almost nothing and start-over to make damn sure form was perfect on deadlift and now, it is.
