My weight and body fat percentage stayed the same this week. I'm really not surprised. The weight lifting I do really helps me burn fat big time. Without that, I have a little more trouble. The interesting thing to me, and this is telling, my cardio strategy needs to change up more often. It is something Marc David mentioned in Podcast: The No Bull Bodybuilding Interview with Marc David. Not only do we need to change up our weight lifting plan, we need to change up our cardio plan as well. I have to examine this because I should have lost some fat. What's odd is that my pictures definitely show progress.
My learning from these results: I need to reexamine my cardio and change it up more often.

Monday through Friday my nutrition plan starts at 4:30 a.m. while it starts at 6 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. I am currently on a week away from weightlifting. My focus is on mixing up the cardio this week. I will be alternating the style of cardio and they cardio equipment that I use. With the plan I have for this week I will be doing the bike 2 times, the elliptical 2 times and the treadmill 3 times. I will also be doing HIIT 2 times, Max-OT 3 times and Steady State 2 times. I'd say that's a pretty good try at variety.
My pics and the rest of my day will be coming later.
Until then…GET BACK TO LIFTING!
