Fat Loss: Week Two, Day Two

Due to being so far under my calorie target yesterday (by 655 calories), I wanted to make sure I ate enough food today so I had a hefty 830+ calorie lunch that was healthy and filling. No tortilla chips to get me up there, no sir. Smile I actually ended up having an extra glass of juice in the evening just to get my calorie count up to where I wanted it to be.

I'm continuing to up the intensity of my workouts slowly. Today I wanted to make sure I got in a high intensity bike ride. Only last 11 minutes but it damned near gave me a heart attack. Shocked Well... at least it felt that way. Again I've added some strengthening exercises specifically for my core and back, which seem to be working really well.

Here are the stats:

9:30AM:
- 10 cat/camels, 10 lunges, 10 crunches, 1 20 secon side bridge, 6 leg extensions, 14 offset-hand pushups. These were all for back strength.
- One-handed farmer's walk (2 minutes, 36 lb kettlebell), 10 curls, 10 tricep extensions (18 lb KB), 12 swings (36 lb KB).

12PM:
- 11 minute HIIT bike ride, hilly terrain.

4PM:
- 10 cat/camels, 7 lunges, 10 crunches, 1 20 secon side bridge, 6 leg extensions, 12 offset-hand pushups. These were all for back strength.
- One-handed farmer's walk (2 minutes, 36 lb kettlebell), 3 curls, 4 military presses, 12 swings (36 lb KB).
