New Stats - new scale

I just got myself a new scale today. My new stats:

Weight: 167 lbs
Body fat %: 17.4
Hydration %: 60

I was totally not expecting an increase of 2% in body fat and I was hoping to be at 170lbs because that is what the gym was measuring. I guess now that I have a scale, I can measure it during the morning right after getting up.

I'll try again tomorrow to see if measuring body fat during the afternoon changes when measured in the morning.

Week 5 Summary

I am on a role! Week 5 (last week) was a great week. I was able to get all 3 workouts in. They were all done in a row and not on alternate days but I worked with what I had.

Tues: Chest and Shoulders
Wed: Legs and Back
Thurs: Arms

It seems like I only have time to workout after work on these 3 days. I wish I could work out 5 days a week but my schedule doesn't really allow it (for now)

I think I am slowly increasing my strength but in very small increments so it is hard to tell. I was for sure focused. There are 2 things I remember reading about which you must think when at the gym: Form and Function. Without these, you won't be doing jack. Form is all about execution. With the proper form, you get the full benefit of the exercise. Function is more psychological I would say. It helps you keep your focus on what exactly you are working on.

Remember, FORM and FUNCTION. Don't think about anything else.

Week 4 Summary

Last week was my week 4 gym workout. It was totally great. I am writing this a little late as I already started my week 5 workout today :(.

As usual, I've had no cardio thus far because of my poor ankle. It is much better but after doing a little jumping I still felt some pain.

Back to week 4. It was like workout out on steroids. I basically tried to catch up with my week 3 workout and I did. I probably worked out 4 times last week instead of the normal 3. It feels great though to finish 4 weeks on a good note.

Hopefully, I can keep it up. Today I weighed myself at the gym and I was at 166lbs.
