Hey Everyone,

It's been a while since I've stopped in. The last month has been pretty busy with fixing up the house and moving in a week ago. I had this past week off work, but was busy painting this, fixing that, blah blah blah. The house is not nearly finished, but it's starting to take shape. We put a new wooden floor in the two bedrooms which has really made a difference.

Since we've moved cities, I'm going to a different gym here. It's a bit of a ghetto place but the atmosphere is pretty decent. It reminds me of my old gym in Hamburg Germany. For dutch standards, it's more geared towards bodybuilder type people. They actually have TWO racks and 88 lb DB's!!! Not that I use the DB's, but that's heavy for around here. I like the place better; I can atucally use their benches and they have a pair or 1.25KG plates, which makes me very happy.

Training has been going fine. My Squat is 5kg off my best single and I should be able to pass it soon enough. My Bench is still way down, but I'm not too worried about it. I know I need to put in a lot of work on the bench to get it moving. In the meantime, I've begun doing DE work later in the week and heavy triples and/or fives at the beginning of the week as the main stressor. Supplementary work is still progressing along fine as well.

Since last updating I've done one high cal week and have just finished 4 low cal weeks. The difference in the gym was very noticeable that week. As of now, my weight is down to 190 lbs, waist to 32 5/8, and caliper to 11mm. I've reached my weight goal way early and I'm 1mm off my caliper goal. As such, I'm going to do a couple higher cal weeks and then another 4 week diet cycle to take me into the christmas break. The next two high cal weeks will correspond with a higher workload as well.

OK guys, thanks for reading.

Cheers,
Jeff
