Workout Journal Notes

I’m still slowly, but steadily, increasing on all exercises. It’s been a while since I’ve done high-rep work in the 10+ range, but my muscles are adjusting pretty well.

It can only help to target some of the endurance-based muscle fibers that I’ve been ignoring for a while.

As time goes on, I’m getting more and more into the overall concept of balance, as it relates to working out, eating, and everything in between.

My chin-ups were down a few reps from last week, because I’m really concentrating on going all the way down on the bottom position (arms fully extended).
