12/20 - 12/26 Took off as rest week, which is good to do every 8 weeks or so to allow the body to recover from any small nagging injuries. It also allows your body to COMPLETELY recover, since recovery is not only just muscular and energy recovery, but also hormonal recovery and nervous sytem recovery as well. Maybe I'll post an article on that someday ...

For the first of the year, and also since Fern and I will be going to Hawaii in February, we had to make changes to the program we designed. Now, since this trip was unplanned, fat loss is the focus.
Back to the ol' CKD and daily AM cardio. Weight training is goung to be superset oriented. Focus is placed on fat loss, and not muscle gain, since now we are looking to just keep what we have built the past few months.

Cardio: 25 mins on Elliptical ... gym was super crowded today. They are forecasting snow here tonight, so I guess everyone decided to go to the gym this afternoon. Had to wait 10 mins to get on ANY cardio equipment, but finally an elliptical opened up. I was a sweaty mess by the time I left ... Love those intervals
Start the CKD diet officially tomorrow.
