Diet

I am doing my own diet this week. It is based on one that is freely available from the musashi web site. Musashi is an Australian company that sells supplements. Here is the site: musashi.com.au and here is a direct link to that menu : http://www.musashi.com.au/cpa/exe/exe_file_get_program_file.asp?fileName=SLM+Stack+with+powders+or+capsules%2Epdf

Basically it is a low calorie high protein menu. I will only be doing it for a week, as the low calories can't be that good, and it is not a sustainable diet. There are about 950 calories a day there, and that is fine for some short term gains but not for a long term strategy.

I have had some trouble finding the actual work outs on Arnels site, so I have been doing one from Men's Health. It is the pull out titled the 'Greatest Abs Workout Ever'. My wife and I have been doing it for a week and a half now, and there are already visible results. My pants feel bigger.

I am not noticing much of a weight drop. I think that I might actually be gaining muscle while losing fat because although the scale is not showing much change, my gut sure is. I am going to add cardio this weekend, and to that end I got a copy of Billy's Boot Camp. It is huge here in Japan, and it is actually a pretty tough workout.
