great back day. crapload of pullups and bent over rows. seated rows, upright rows finished with some military press. lats are cooked. i switch off with deads, sometimes i'll do them on back day, other times on leg day.
I'm leaning out tho. fat is dropping noticeably each day it seems. i find that I look forward to each day just to see the new tightness. i'm getting used to the lower carbs and sugar as well, less groggy/cranky. These next couple weeks will fly by, then march I'll turn it up a notch.
as far as strength, I'm still pretty strong I'd say, though the intensity of my workouts has to be dialed back some, but that's to be expected. I can't wait to even see how different I am next week from just today. #teamFIT

Mine is the FT4. Differences between the 4&7 are the workouts logged, the four keeps 10 while the 7 does 50 or 100, can't recall exactly. My 4 does more than enough since I log everything myself with MFP
If im working out I wear it, point blank.

About to really start going to the gym and eating healthy. I'm a vegetarian so it's kind of hard getting that protein but I've read a lot on different sources of protein for Vegetarians and the possibilities are endless. Saw this thread and used it as part of my motivation.

Focus on compound lifts. Incorporate supersets into your workouts. HIIT cardio. A "quick 10 - 15 lbs" is unlikely unless you're way below maintenance calories, which will probably lead to gaining it back eventually. Aim for a steady 2 lbs a week.

You're not going to lose 10-15 pounds in a month in any healthy manner. Especially if that's your baseline diet you're trying to change.

Why can't you lose 10 pounds in a month in a healthy manner? If you control your portions, watch your calorie intake, and up your cardio/overall exercise, it's attainable.
*edit*
NVM...I see why you posted that.
*and even if you hate running, there are MANY other forms of cardio that you can do. FWIW, embracing cardio is going to help you get rid of those 10-15 pounds. You better learn to like it.

After 2 bad workouts last week, a rough night of drinking on Saturday, and a mean hangover on Sunday... I'm back.
Killed my shoulders, triceps, and legs in the gym today. Followed all that with a mile 'fat burn' walk on the treadmill.
I'm going to limit myself to drinking only once or twice a month, Saturdays only. Drinking during the week hinders me in the gym.

back to back rest days feel weird 
Week 3 in Gethins 12. Back to getting it in on the free weights tomorrow.
I'm learning as I progress with the weights that my right wrist is MUCH weaker than my left, or is it my left that's giving me ****? Can't remember haha.
Going to invest in straps. Thoughts?
