It's not the occasional splurge if it happens every night

Exercise fail. And everyday I've gone over my calories by 100-300. Never going to lose this way!!

Patience is a virtue and my dietary restrictions are so confusing!

I had to draw on the picture to make a point. But today I came to my mom's to pick up something and the scale was being nice to me. I just wanted to see a space between the red line and the "40". Make it official i'm not in the 40's anymore.

Last night I went to a "Spring into Fitness" seminar hosted by a chiropractic office with one of my mates. It was interesting, definitely a lot of things to research, one being something called Max T3. The jist of the exercise is to do short bursts of high intensity exercises. For example, he had us stand up and run in place as fast as we could for 20 seconds. We stopped for 20 seconds. Then ran in place again for 20 more seconds. This would have went on for 12 minutes while having a variety of exercises to do, but he just wanted to give us an idea of the program. He claimed that this kind of exercise will continue to burn fat up to 48 hours after the exercise has ended. He claimed that with regular cardio workouts, we lower our testosterone and HGH levels which apparently are the hormones we need to burn FAT. Also, we lower leptin which helps regulate metabolism and raise cortisol which collects in our mid sections. Supposedly doing the MAX T3 exercises, it's the opposite...

I found this on rippednaturally.com on an article called common body building myths by Paul Lucas. He said:

"...The more effort you put into something (intensity) the more Growth Hormone will be secreted, doing low intensity will release little to none at all. 

Quick sprints (interval training or wind sprints), has far greater cardiovascular benefits than low intensity cardio, it improves your aerobic capacity (Vo2max) two or three times greater, which will help with weight lifting better. You'll get like 5 times greater GH release and testosterone release, which equates to far greater fat burning than if you just did low intensity for longer durations..." 

I think it's time to break out the Billy Blanks dvd lol!
