8 Week Challenge - Day 32 & Day 33
Day 32 of the 8 Week Challenge was a quiet one; I took the day off. The next day I had an assessment and got a new weight/resistance program. The assessment was positive; my blood pressure has gone down, I’ve lost a nice amount of centimeters, lost 2.8 kg in 4 weeks and I am getting stronger by the day.
After the assessment I had a PT session and I talked to my PT about what the dietitian had said to me about working out too intense. My PT had never heard about it and after talking to him, we agreed to ignore the advice of the dietitian. Personally I find it a waste of my training to ‘take it easy’ two weeks of the month. I don’t see how I will improve when I do that.
