stevencote's Journal, 17 May 2015

Alright so first day joining FatSecret. I hadn't really used MFP before so this is all new to me. I'm liking it so far though. So a little background I guess as I attempt to keep up with these journals. Today is the 2 week mark of my using dumbbells to work out here in my apartment. Using some compound exercises I found on Athlean-X's YT channel sprinkled with some body part specific exercises (still working on a routine). It's working pretty good so far. I mean I've been completely sedentary for at least 10 years now probably more so any "gains" or changes are probably just my body going "Oh crap" and not truly indicative of what I can expect with the current workout routine. For that I think I need to step it up but so far I've noticed some strength gains and my arms and shoulders for example are feeling firmer which is always nice lol. Anyways I'll keep up with this journal and report on how things are doing. One thing is for sure: need to incorporate some cardio as the weight hasn't really changed over the past two weeks so hard to say if I have lost some fat and built muscle at the same time. It's a bit early. We'll give it another 2-4 weeks to see what's up.
