I wanted to do more exercises both for the chest and biceps but felt like this was a good start to the change in routine. I was doing a three day full body but starting this week I'm back to a 4 day split routine.

Monday - Chest/Biceps
Tuesday - Quads/Calves
Wednesday - Shoulders/Triceps
Thursday - Back/Hamstring

I will work my core every other day and change up the exercises frequently. I love split programs far better then full body routines and I'm glad to finally be back to my 4 day split. Today's workout felt great and I'm looking forward to my Quads/Calves workout tomorrow, I love the pump I get from my quads. My diet has been spot on all day with the total calories coming in just above 2200. Diet is the thing I struggle with most of the time, I have an addiction to food. It is a daily battle for me to stay away from the junk food. Sometimes I win and sometimes I lose those battles but I fight hard to stay on track every day. I'm trying to keep my calories right around 2000-2300 a day and so far so good over the last couple of days.

I've been working hard at this self employed thing. Running your own business is a very challenging process but also a very rewarding one. I've already had my ups and downs over the last few months but overall not bad. Hopefully I can continue the growth in an upward fashion over the next couple of months, so far its looking pretty good. All I can do is work really hard, and give it all I got and let the chips fall where they may.

Tomorrow will bring early morning fasted cardio and my quads and calves workout tomorrow afternoon. Have a great Tuesday.
