Exercise Goal: Daily workouts (6 days) following the Hybrid XI Plan.
Exercise Summary: I AM BACK, BABY!! I missed Thursday and Friday. Thursday I had to get a lot done before a leadership convention that I was traveling for on Friday. I made these up Saturday with a UML and run workout in the morning, Chest&Back(1/2) at lunch, and a run in the evening. I will all it Excellent, not quite outstanding.
Diet Goal: 2800 calories per day, 30% Protein daily
