90 kilos, or 194.4 pounds if you prefer - that's my morning weight. To be honest, I probably haven't weighed as much in 3 years, so, why now? Well, first of all, our trip to Las Vegas and the Mr Olympia did have me add a few pounds on the scale, although, I was back on track after just a few days. What really made the scale escalate is that I pretty much scrapped the regular routines and focused on recovery. I've currently been eating more freely and removed all the regular morning walks. It might seem like a bad idea to do what I've currently been doing, but, at the same time, you have to remember that my life is a constant diet. My body is used to regular routines and I know just about the exact amount of strain that my body can endure. Doing such an event as Vegas, with lots of positive stress and things constantly requiring my attention is a much greater strain than my body is used to. With an intense period also comes the need for recovery. As of this day I feel that my body is ready to get back into the game, and hence, the regular routines are back. The morning walk is done and it's time for the first workout - quads!

# Workout Notes:
This was an awesome workout as far as the performance was concerned. What wasn't that awesome, however, was the fact that I was feeling rather ill from last night's sleep. Yesterday was a cheat day, and every time I stuff myself with food prior to bed I seem to get a little bit sick - it comes from the pressure of sleeping face down with the stomach pressing against the bed. It usually takes a day or so before everything is back to normal. In any case, I won't let that stop me from having killer workouts!
