Started with squats today. I was planning on NOT working up to a top single, but I was feeling good and went ahead and followed the WO as written which was a single @RPE8. I worked up to a single that was probably a bit over REP8, then backed off for the first set of 6. Then I took off 8-10% and did 2 more sets of 6. Felt pretty good throughout. Next the WO called for OHP, but this has really been bothering my trap, so I did low incline. I just worked up to what felt like about @RPE6-7 and did some decent volume. I supersetted DB 1-leg SLDL with low incline because barbell SLDL has been bothering my trap as well. Solid WO with some decent substitutions rather than just skipping movements.

Nutrition/Weight:

182.6 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.
