I've been sick the past few days so I decided to take Monday off but I'm feeling tons better now and think I'll be able to hit the gym on Tuesday.

Either way, I hope not eating much for the past few days doesn't effect my lifts too much, my appetite has returned for the most part but I'm not sure how this will effect my strength.

get well soon!!

I hope I kick this sickness soon, I thought I was better but I wasn't. I got over the main part of it but I'm still in a weak because of it, I think it's best at this point to wait until Monday to resume my workouts.

Workout #7 4-23-08 W3D1

Felt great to get back to the gym today, so I decided to pick up where I left off. It was a smart decision as I felt stronger even despite being sick for a while.

I powered through the lifts quite well, after all my lifts I felt like I had quite a bit left in me. Also I'm going to cut around 10lbs of fat but I will stop the cut if I start to lose strength.
