Posted new pictures. Sorry for slacking about that, there's just something about the whole picture thing that feels weird and vain. But anyways, it's so powerful. Even though I haven't felt like any physical changes have been happening lately they totally have (I don't have a full-length mirror so I pretty much judge day to day progress based on my biceps). I am so much thinner in the hip/thigh/flank region as compared to my pictures up at the top. I'm so much less curvy, which is totally good. I never really minded/cared about being "curvy" but I always felt the my bottom half was out of proportion for my top half. Now things are shuffling out to be more proportional and I like it.
The inner changes are happening too. Yesterday I did 15 pull-ups with a lot of help from Jordan, but that was more than I've done before. I also did the max reps of everything else except the triceps dips. Firefighting class is getting easier too. The first class we did two reps of the run 1/4 mile, 5 floors of stairs, run 1/4 mile circuit, on Saturday we did 3 and on Monday and today we did 4. It's still hard, I still huff and puff and feel like a slow, out of shape, fatty but it's getting better and I recover a lot faster than many of the other folks, even if they're faster than me.
Yay progress. Go Team Badass!!
