Deadlift felt heavy today warming up and so I just worked up to a top set of 4 that felt like @RPE8 and backed off for 4 sets. Back off sets felt better as they went along, so I don't know if early in the WO I wasn't warmed up enough, or going heavier just wasn't going to happen because of fatigue this week. Either way, it was a good effort. I supersetted 2-count paused bench with deadlift and felt really good. Heavier than last week by 15#, good back off work. Finished up with 4 sets each split squat (w/DB's) and steep incline. Solid WO.

Last night once I broke the seal and ate some pretzels, I could not stop eating carbs. Bloated this morning.

A little about my journey...

Hi, my name is Kip. On July 24th, 2011 I made a decision to change my life. At the time I weighed 250 pounds, was sedentary, my blood pressure was 170/110 and I was already on a max dose of BP medication to control it. I was well on my way to turning 40 and having a heart attack. This blog is about what I’m currently doing to improve my health and my journey to get my life and health back under control to get to where I am 9 months after starting (Apr 2012) - which is 170 lean pounds, no blood pressure meds and a new outlook on life.

I decided to start this blog for 2 reasons. First, it's a record where I can look back to see what’s working and what isn’t so I can make improvements. Second, a lot of people have asked me what I've done to transform my body, so hopefully it can help someone else glean some helpful information they can incorporate into their lives to make positive impactful changes. So, here it is. Since I'm just starting this blog 9 months in, I'll post a few blogs to recap in more detail where I was and how I got here. Going forward I'll be posting workouts and training/diet/nutrition information I think others can benefit from. I didn’t re-invent the wheel, so I’ll be referencing materials I use along the way. Below there's a picture taken shortly after a body fat test in May 2013.
