It’s been a long time since I last updated. I have kept all the information I wanted to log on my blackberry, so I’ll report things now. Note that I have decided to stop logging food information, since it makes no sense to log a variable that I’m not planning to control.
“+weight training” will mean the following:
Leg Press: 7 weights, done 15 times
Leg Press (toe step): 7 weights, done 15 times per foot
Pec Deck Machine: 5 weights, done 15 times
Lat Pull-Down Machine: 7 weights, done 15 times
Leg Extension Machine: 5 weights, done 15 times
Bench Press: 5 weights, done 15 times
Stretching is implicitly assumed, since I have never not stretched after an exercise session after the previous blog entry.
Lastly, all cardio since the previous blog entry are elliptical machines. I will be providing the minutes and calories burned. “45min557″ will mean 45 minutes on the elliptical machine, burning off 557 calories.

As you can see, there were more break days than one a week, but I’ve compensated by going for a minimum target of -600 calories per session instead of -500. The extra -100 over five days would total up to be -500 which makes up for the extra break day. Because of this, I consider myself still on track for my 100 day goal. So far, the only real missed exercise sessions that happened were the two extra break days between days 49-54, and those two extra days will be the only ones within the 100 day goal, and immediately they will be made back in the two or three days after the 100 days.

I missed some of my workouts, but this is okay. I think it’s not productive to be too strict with planning since sometimes things don’t go according to plan. It’s just important that we don’t slide down the slippery slope and start using this as an excuse for not doing future workouts. Besides, maintaining about 50 days without a single mishap is already quite amazing for me.
