Bench-Diet Changes and insomnia

I LOVE bench days…mainly cuz it seems like I never have a mental hang-up while doing it.  Admittedly, I was a little more tired today, relatives (male) stopped by the house on Saturday and of course I had to show off and out rep them on 135lb bench….yet another way to keep family away!

Add to that the addition of sleepless nights….. insomnia and clock watching are the worst. Of course, by the time you actually fall back to sleep it’s time to wake up. If this keeps up I’m gonna look like a walking dead cast member.

In other news, changing up my diet and in different post I’ll go in to further details but I am really loving the results and it’s only been 5 days in. Operation STRONG and SEXY in full effect!

Of course this was taken first thing in the a.m. post cardio….pretty much the time they look the best. Think the diet changes are helping me tighten it up even more. So far happy with the results. Now let’s see if the weight keeps dropping like I’ve planned.
