You get a fair bit done when you workout angry, or is that just me? xD

Yet another HIIT session on the bike; that's 3 days in a row, now. I've been doing 20 seconds intervals, several in the 10 minutes. Typically around 6-7, I'd say. Did probably 8 or 9 today with 1 being 30 seconds. Just leaves you grunting like an animal after a while. x_x
I know I probably seem wimpy, but I am completely new to THIS level of intensity. I always whack up the bike to the hardest difficulty and just bike like a monster.
I'm improving, though. Managed the 30 second interval today, maybe later I'll manage more. Maybe eventually the 10 minutes will end up 11, then 12, etc.
I'm just amazed how 10 minutes can feel like more than an hour's resistance workout.
This is what HIIT has done for me! So much BF loss. I even ate pasta earlier, which usually bloats, so on a good day, I may look better. I wish I didn't have these IBS-type issues, because it means if I wanna look my best, I have to seriously mess around with my diet.

Happy Easter, everyone. I hope y'all managed to resist the temptation to stuff your face full of chocolate. ;) If you did, I hope it was at least fairtrade, high-cocoa chocolate.
Been a good day for me. Just did about 40 minutes walking. Turns out getting lost at night on the way back from somewhere, actually works well to get extra cardio. :P Also banged out a wicked hr+ workout consisting of 10 minutes painful HIIT and all the rest resistance.
Now I have a decision to make: do I eat all this chocolate laid out in-front of me, or do I put it in my kitchen cupboard and pretend I don't have it for a while? I vote for the former! It's basically an Easter egg.
Egg: 1034kcal, 54g fat, 32.4 saturates, 117.8g carbs, 115.6 sugary carbs. Holy crap, that's just the egg! Well, the decision has been made... I'll put it in the cupboard. I'm not entirely sure why my folks got me this... I know it's Easter and everything, but this thing is deadly...or d
egg
ly?

Well, it's that time again: picture time! xD Not a whole lot of improvement, just some muscle definition and size improvement, but as for bodyfat loss, at least, visually noticeable bodyfat loss, I don't think it's much, if at all! It's hard to tell, sometimes. I think it has reached the point at which I stare at myself so much, judging and scrutinizing, that I've lost a lot of perspective. I've been looking at my biceps, for example, and pecs, thinking they're crap, but half way into a curl on either side, you can see they're actually not that bad and would probably look pretty nice if I lost more bodyfat:
But then there's this picture, a similar pose that I do a lot, so it should help to see if there's any marked improvements. Unfortunately, I don't see much except perhaps a little more size in some parts. Maybe you guys can see the improvements (if any) better than I can. |:
Some things I definitely have noticed, is that my left bicep and shoulder are finally starting to catch up to the right. Hoorah. Also, my traps are coming up at last, seemingly all thanks to doing pullups somewhat religiously. xD My abs are pretty thick but masked greatly by bodyfat which is crying shame.
Things I need to focus on are: My pecs, via wide pushups and floor presses. I need to work on losing more bodyfat, which I'm doing and that's via HIIT (much harder than I had previously done, so I will push myself) and any other form of cardio, but mainly the bike. I need to focus even more on very slow TuT - sometimes I slip into my old faster rep style, and I need to stop that! I'm trying to GROW. I also need to continue working my legs and back, a couple of things I admit to neglecting focusing on in the past. (they got worked pleny, but little actual emphasis was made)

Just discovered the epiness of resistance bands and I BADLY want one (or two) now! They would also make up for the lack of certain machines. Some of those exercises just look plain fun, and would spice things up a bit, plus be good for a more-reps, less-weight workout. Time to trawl through Amazon to find something cool.
Oh yeah, and I was meant to rest today, as in, no resistance, but what did I do? Yep, you guessed it: resistance. xD But I did "light calisthenics" for about 33 minutes, which is actually an acurate-ish description of it. Fairly light stuff, working my shoulders, triceps, back, legs, and abs. Some wicked exercises I'm picking up. I need to focus on the lighter stuff more often, because I think I get so distracted with the big, rawr stuff. I wanna "tone" as well as get bigger.
