I'll be honest with you all, I'm finding the Fat Loss III sessions very hard going. I find they really sap me and it takes me a while to recover from them. Realistically I've been doing two sessions a week, workout A and workout B with at least a day recovery between each session but preferably more if possible. This week my work schedule took me away at the beginning of the week so I had to squeeze both sessions into Wednesday and Friday. I'm also doing my cycling as well which is adding to my aerobic and anaerobic work. I'm still not down to pre vacation levels but do believe that I am looking much better than I did previously. Obviously I'm under no illusions that there is still plenty of work to be done but I think it was the right move to complete Fat Loss III before moving onto one of the other program types. I think I will probably move across to a Hypertrophy phase following the end of Fat Loss III and see how things go from there.
Yesterday, I went for an organised ride because the weather has been uncharacteristically good over the past few days and it seemed a shame not to take advantage of it. At the end of the ride I realised that it was just short of 60 miles so that sort of made up for the missed days whilst I was away (and was very enjoyable as well). Diet wise I've been trying very hard and stayed away from much of the bad stuff though I believe that I am overeating in places. I'm drifting a little too much onto the peanut butter and think that I'm eating too much of it (which is easily done). Desert can be a little problematic so I'm trying to pre-perpare sugar free jello with squirty cream. I think it's a good option and will help me to avoid some nasty temptions whilst I'm in this Fat Loss phase. I have noticed that since coming back from vacation I have been having cravings for flapjacks (a major weakness) and dried fruit such as figs and dates. At least when I go onto hypertrophy sessions I'll be able to allow a little more flexibility around the pre-workout so may be able to sneak a little in there without too much damage. I'll have to see how that goes.
That's all for now, Cheers, BustaGut!
