Month 3! Once again, I would like to thank Jane for leading us on this challenge and helping us all stay accountable.
I completed Warp Speed Fat Loss one week ago and have maintained my 4 pound loss. I feel like it was primarily fat because I looked leaner, had improvements in my body fat readings (yes, I know those are only good for trending), and my clothes fit better. I am now following the original NROL Hypertrophy I program and will continue running on my treadmill for HIIT on my non-lifting days.
My goals for November are to re-focus and continue the nutrition and workout consistency I had during WSFL (not to that same level of intensity) and to improve my form and technique on all lifting. My next goal (within calendar 2008) is to find a lifting coach I can work with periodically to ensure good technique and to learn the Olympic lifts. I want to also focus on chin-ups but I need to prioritize the other items in front so it may have to wait. One thing I do want to prioritize highly is to ensure I post regularly....both my own workouts and encourage others. I have struggled with being a consistent contributor.
