Exactly.
Let's be honest here - your muscles do not know that they are lifting. They only know when failure sets in.....it how long it takes the failure to set in that dictates what your gains will be(ie - strength or size or both).
TUT is the key to getting the results you want.

Trying to adjust my circadian rhythms. I'll have to be in class everyday at 9:30AM starting Monday. May not seem too early to some of you, but I'm a night owl...I train late, study late, and don't usually go to bed until 1 or 2. I know I'm going to have to change that in order to get up by 7 to do cardio before school. If anyone has tips to help with this, let me know.

Adding in a fat burner around lunch time would do wonders for energy levels while the bidy adapts tot he TUT....it REALLY hammers the nervous system - hence the energy levels.....if you feel a bit jittery(nerrvous) - its nervous system related as well

AM CARDIO:
I can't even explain what I did on the mill this morning. I thought I programmed my intervals right, but it got all wacky.

PM Workout:
45 min on treadmill....4.0 @ 10% incline
ABS: 3 sets inline situps...8 reps 6 TUT
3 sets hanging leg raises...6 reps 6 TUT
NOTES:
Fell out at 3:00 again today....took an hour and a half nap. If I could fit this in everyday problem would be solved, but it's cutting into my study time.
Calves are still sore as hell from Monday....a real low, new soreness.
Cardio is killing me! I feel so out of shape, but I should be back in cardiovascular shape in a couple weeks.
Night, night.

YEP.
It is possible(even for nattys) to gain LBM while losing BF.
While we haven't been manipulating the diet at all - your body continues to make the adjustments we want. This is the primary reason I do not like making weekly dietary changes. You never get a good baseline reading on how the body is reacting.

Fantastic on the pics.
You have an outstanding upper body..in fact - it is so good that it is throwing your lower body off a bit.
Goals are to build the outer sweep and inner ham thickness - pull out the lats a bit and cap the delts.

I know...my goal over the winter was to add some solid muscle to my legs, and I did add a lot, but not enough. My legs are really strong, but it's hard to add size to them. The good thing is I love training them, so let's do it!
So, are there any dietary changes or are we keeping it the same?

FANTASTIC!!!
Note that 2 days ago - the cardio was suddenly "easier".
That is why we have not made any dietary changes.....it really takes 10-14 days for the body to fully adapt to any duetary/supplemental changes.
You have lost 3 pounds of fat and gained some lbm - no need to make changes yet - let the diet do the work for you at this point.
WELL DONE!!

Stat Update:
6/2/07:
Weight: 140.1
BF%: 19.61. .....although, I don't feel like a look sub 20 yet
From last week:
Weight: 139.6
BF%: 20.97%
Pinches show that I'm losing fat in the midsection, as I can tell because my abs are coming out more.
I also wonder if the increase in scale weight could be do to water retention from creatine?

Last week: This week:
LBM - 110.3 LBM - 112.6
Fat - 29.3 Fat - 27.5
Again - fantastic progress.....
the scale weight could be some water holding.....that is actually a desirable thing when you are wishing to add some LBM.

I'm going to try to make it to the gym tomorrow morning to make up arms, but I have a wedding to go to in the afternoon, so it may have to wait until Sunday.

Hammies are pretty sore today, glutes are getting sore too. My neck has been killing me all week. I don't know if it's something I did differently in the gym this week, but it's very stiff and full of knots.

Hey Badge are you under alot of stress where you keep tensing your neck? I had a walnut size knot for a few months b/c of the stress.. I wasnt lifting weights at that time so b/w the cardio, stress, etc... I always was adjusting and correcting myself and posture.
Pay attention to your posture and hunching and let me know if you think it could be a slight cause or even aggravating it... can you do additional stretching throughout the day? Or get to a masseuse or chiro ?

That probably does have a lot to do with it. I DO have bad posture....I have a really bad habit of letting my shoulders slump forward. I've had trouble with neck and shoulder pain my whole life, but this past weak it was awful. Sometimes it gets worse than others, and I wonder if it's something I'm doing in the gym.
It was so hard doing shoulders this week....basically lifting anything above the head.
It's fine now though. My boyfriend gave me a KILLER massage on Thursday night, and it's been getting better ever since.
Truthfully, I've never benefited from a chiro- I've been to several, and I've found that most massage therapists aren't worth the money. I really need someone who can go DEEP for the whole hour, and the ones I've been to aren't hard enough for me.
That was kinda funny

So I'm gaining lbm, which is good, but I still hate to see the scale weight going up, especially because I need to be under 125 by August 11th. I definitely see a loss of fat in the ab area, but I hate that fat roll under my ass
Honest feedback is welcome
