WeVie's Picture Log

[wevie]

I would like to start a picture log. The first one is from the end of summer of 2008. I starting working out about middle of March 2009. The second picture is from November 2009 or right around there. Like I said in a different thread, I starting traveling for work all the time. I was only home for for 5 to 10 days a month. Of course I could have did better but hotels make it hard. Anyway, the last picture is taken today. I am ten pounds heavier today than I was in that second picture. I will update my pictures every week or two. Hopefully I will start seeing some good progress.

Great progress! Very inspirational. It won't take much muscle to make a big impact. Looks like you have a solid upper body base to work with.

Yeah, I got a little something to work with. I just need to do some work. It's about time to hit the gym. Tonight is chest and back.

I may as well keep my workout log here as well. Feel free to share your thoughts.

I will be lifting in Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursdays with a little cardio after. Monday and Wednesday will be cardio and abs.

Strong work.

I think the weight ion the presses is just right. You want to be in that zone where you are pushing yourself close to failure, but not too failure.
