Wow. Started workout B today. I knew it was going to be hard but I had no idea. One mistake I think I made was that I ate breakfast at 7:30 then went to the gym at 10:30 with nothing to eat in between. I think I might need some food maybe an hour or so before working out. So here is what I did with notes to follow:

Deadlift 3 x 15 @ 130
DB incline bench press 3 x 15 @ 80, 90, 90

Bulgarian split squat 3 x 15 (each leg) @ 40
Mixed grip lat pulldown 3 x 15 @ 6

Romanian deadlift -
Swiss-ball lateral roll -


I don't think I've sweated so much in a long time. On the deadlift I was having problems with my grip after first set. Granted I was pretty tired on the 2nd and 3rd sets but I had to use an alternating grip in order to not drop the bar. Not a huge deal but I usually don't use that grip until I get to heavier weights. But then again, I never used to do 3 sets of 15 either....

On the bench press I think I was right on track because I hit muscle failure on the last rep of the last set. I was maybe an inch or two from completely locking out my right arm on the last set when the dumbbell started going down instead of up

OMG, I thought I was going to die on the Bulgarian Split Squats. I have done them before so they aren't new to me but it really took it out of me today. I had to rest for 20-30 seconds between legs and it seemed like I never really did catch my breath.

Now the bad news.....as you can see I didn't do the Romanian deadlifts or the lateral roll. I thought I could do it but couldn't get past the warm-ups without throwing up So at that point I called it a day and went home to drink a shake, take a short nap and recover. I've tried to eat a lot of good quality food tonight and will be able to get at least 9 hours of sleep so hopefully I won't be too bad tomorrow. But I can tell that Fat Loss 1 is really going to get me. And that's a good thing
