(88#Crunch)4x12
(75#SLDL)3x10
(10#T-Twist)3x14

39 + 4 w/u = 43 mins

Not much time for a WO but got in a quick lower body day. Supersetted squats (ass to grass) with cable crunches. Cable crunches felt awesome today. I think the leverage/angle is a bit different from the setup at LA Fitness, because these felt different and MUCH better. Next I supersetted SLDL with torture twists. Holding heavy DB's bothered my left forearm and I could barely hold the weight for all reps. Finished up with leg ext, leg curl and a little triceps work (just for a little more volume). I only did 2 sets of leg curls. I was planning on 3 but my hamstrings were on fire and started cramping.

Nice quick WO.

Nutrition:
I weighed 186.4 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.
