Sunday Part Two, BW 178 + 35 kettlebell = 213. 50 reps (15-15-15-5). 10,650 lb.

So decided to restart my running for 2022 and registered for the Rock'n'Roll Nashville in April. Lawd help me :-) My runs were on almost a 2-year hiatus and I really missed my destination events. Tomorrow I'll begin some short runs first, then gradually increase the mileage. Wish me luck! Plus a fun weekend in Nashville doesn't hurt. LOL. Anyone else? I'm still kicking up the gym workouts as I lean down and burn off the overload of sugar, gravy, and bread this past weekend. Yep...and not a vegetable in sight. Ugh. I need to get this body in better shape by April!

Getting back into my strength training and feeling blessed to be healthy again!

After comparing my previous bulking bod pod results with my new results after increasing cardio, I realize the cardio may have been almost just right for burning fat without burning too much muscle. I saw a 2.3% reduction in body fat (4.03 lbs.), & a 1 lb. muscle gain. Although, prior to the increased cardio I'd been gaining a pound of muscle a month, so the growth progress did slow significantly. I think I'll reduce the cardio frequency somewhat. Enough to maintain heart health without killing my muscle gains.

Finally found my way out of the vineyards and into my hiking boots today. 5 mile hike at Pedernales Falls State Park- Johnson City, Tx
