August 10, 2009

I went through my posts since I have started keeping this training log and got a bit disheartened at first since it didn't appear that I have increased the weight I am using of the past 4 months. However after further review, the big difference now is that I am not getting injured from using the same weights. It was interesting to see the progression as I have iterated to my current routines. Hopefully now that I will focus more on periodization I can start increasing the weights. The other positive item is that I have stayed roughly the same weight but feel I have gotten thicker through the chest and shoulders during this time.
