Waking Weight: 204.2

Tension workout

4 sets 6-12 for legs, shoulders, chest, back.

2 sets of 6-12 for arms.

Didn't really pay attention to the weight, as I was just supposed to stop one short of failure. Saturday's workout is supposed to be the power workout, those we'll keep track of.

Tonight starts my carb up.

[NightFaLL]

Waking Weight: 207.8 (~900 carbs eaten in 8 hours last night, not bad.)

Today, have to eat another ~400-600 carbs and it's an off day, we'll see how I look/what I weigh friday.

Look for updates later today :D
