Nick Andrade’s Body Transformation Log – Day 9
Objective: To Burn Fat Gain Muscle And Transform My Body In 12 Weeks
Nothing too exciting happened today, but it really did feel nice to hit the gym and get relieve some stress from my day to day life. I don’t know why, but a short intense weightlifting workout always sets my mind at ease and makes me feel better about everything. it’s a weird phenomenon, I’m not sure why it has this effect on me, but it definitely works wonders.
As far as the workouts are going the shift form high repetition brackets to the lower 5 rep sets is a nice change of pace. It’s going to allow me to see where I really am with my strength. Anytime I can get a chance to prove to myself that I’ve gotten stronger, it gives me a huge confidence boost, so hopefully as the week progresses I’ll be able to realize some new strength gains.
