Haven't Felt This Great In a Long Time

     Last night I made the decision to get back to the gym this morning, for the first time since Valentine's Day. Last night I also went to GNC and bought the Nutrex Lypo 6 Black "Hers", it is a fat burner. It states to take 3 capsules in the morning, 3 capsules in the afternoon but not within 6 hours before bed (means 7 hours or more before I hit the sack). I took 3 this morning and my protein shake, got to the gym around 6:45 a.m. (I got up at 5:30 this morning "YAY!") and here is how it went:


7:50 a.m. - Treadmill / 15 min / 3.7mph / 4% incline
8:05 a.m. - Hyper Extensions (Back) / 10 lb weight / 8 sets of 12 reps
8:10 a.m. - Walking Lunges / 6 sets of 8 reps / 10 lb dumb bells
8:17 a.m. -  Leg Curls / 5 sets of 12 reps / 60 lbs
8:23 a.m. - Leg Extensions / 6 sets of 12 reps / 65 lbs
8:28 a.m. - Elliptical / 5 min / resistance 25 / 10% incline
8:33 a.m. - Hip Adductor / 5 sets of 12 reps / 60 lbs
8:38 a.m. - Hip Abductor / 5 sets of 12 reps / 55 lbs
8:43 a.m. - Leg Press / 5 sets of 12 reps / 60 lbs
8:48 a.m. - Leg Press Calf focus / 5 sets of 12 reps / 30 lbs
8:50 a.m. - Treadmill / 5 min / 3.5mph / 2% incline


     As you can see, my quality and effort had increased by twice the amount of sets I was doing when I had taken my two week break to start running. I don't know if the Lypo 6 helped or what, but it felt great and I am excited. For the last couple of months I was feeling like I had hit a wall going to the gym and just wasn't excited to go anymore until today. I have been going through fitness magazines and forums to build my inspiration in the last couple of days which I think has really helped.
