no abs or HIIT although that was planned due to time constraint had to just hit the weights very fast and get gone. This was the last day of a four week program of strength training. I have seen size gains in my legs and have noticed strength gains as well. I'll see if I have improved higher end strength in the rep range 8-12 next week.
Also I have been dieting doing abs and cardio. I have noticed weight loss but that may be just fat. I hope so. Now as I weighed myself this morning I'm down to 203 but getting leaner in the stomach area and looking overall a lot better. I will go to a one week 12 10 8 rep workout still sticking to a muscle group a day like I have been. Then the week after I'm going after my 1rm.
I want to deadlift 400 lbs I'm thinking I can if my grip can hold up and I want to free weight squat 380. I want to try to clean 185 fresh. And Try to hit 340 again in bench. I'll let you guys know as soon as I can.
After I finish up with the one rep max week I'll go to a muscle extensive training program starting with my small child like calves. I'll hit them twice weekly with moderate intensity and keep that for a 6 week training plan. I Can't wait.
