More weight needed for squats, deadlifts and calf raises; also, much more for leg extensions, 40lbs was too easy, never got above a 6 in intensity. Argh. Have to go buy more stuff !!

Ok, yesterday's abs weren't tough, but I do feel them today. This is awesome. I think it has to do with the 'active resting'. Can't wait for tomorrow's workout!

Ok, I have been thinking about adding a few extra cardio workouts into my program, I was thinking that 20minutes 3 times a week wasn't going to be enough. I was promptly put in my place and reminded that body fat loss has nothing to do with aerobic activity, and that more would actually hurt me (lean body mass lost and less strength to do resistance work). So I wont do it. I'll restrain myself. I think I've learned my lesson
