This isn't going to be a detailed update, but since I posted a link to MuscleHack in the previous post, I wanted to quickly update where I am now.
Weight's pretty good. I've been average 172.5 lb. What's great is that I've been able to make gains in my strength. I am now on 40 lb dumbbells for my at-home weight workouts. I haven't hit the gym for awhile. Been busy with a new job and the heat makes me less motivated to make the drive. I haven't been able to hit the heavy weights, since I haven't gone to the gym, but I try to compensate with incline pushups, one-handed pushups, one-legged squats. Pullups are still the way to go for hitting my lats/back.
Cardio is suffering. I currently travel a lot for my job, and the long commutes not only saps my energy, but my time. I'm hoping to start running/biking 2-3 times a week, but it's not looking too good. My hiking goals have been seriously challenged. It's July, and I haven't hiked once. Not good.
Even with my setback in terms of cardio, I feel I'm still doing well on my fitness. I feel stronger than ever and I have a hunch that my body fat is around 13-14%. Ideally, I'd like to get that closer to 10-11%, but it'll take more control with my diet and more cardio. We'll see how it goes.
