Monday 6/14/03
Again, significantly less walking with my parents. I would estimate only about 3 miles today. However, after I dropped them off at the airport, I worked out my arms. I am making a change so my weights will be dropping some. I learned that 4-8 reps isn't the best means of lifting for physical appearance change. People do lower rep numbers to increase their actual strength, not muscle tone or size. From here on out, I will be shooting for a goal of 8 repetitions on each movement.
