Great leg/abs workout yesterday. I’m still getting used to the new machines. I especially like the Linear Leg press. Just pushing up on the 45-degree sled starts you out at 80lbs. and with two sets of weight racks on the sled allows you to really crank it up. I maxed out at 450lbs.x6 – far below my high of 720lbs., but I’m working back up to it.
I was able to squeeze in my 6th meal in the form of a Myoplex shake w/ Phosphagen. I had concerns about adding creatine to my supplementation. I know it’s great for building muscle, but I’ve read that it can also make you gain/retain weight. With so much weight to lose – I was a little reluctant to use it. I posed this question on the Tracker forum, and one post suggested I was okay to use the creatine – so I did.
I have to say I’m feeling pretty good – feeling like I’m getting stronger. I know my official start date was only yesterday, but I began working out BFL style, when I got back from vacation on May 29th.
