Recap Week 1- Rite of Passage 24kg - 06/08/2025

 Recap Week 1- Rite of Passage 24kg - 06/08/2025

  • Everything felt really great this week.  Just following the book without any deviation is working.  I'm already feeling stronger by using heavier weights and keeping the goal, the goal.  In the past I wouldn't be able to superset a chin up and throw the baby out with the bath water and give up but that doesn't happen for me anymore.  I'm also really sticking to my diet this time around and am steadily feeling lighter/less inflamed from too much junk food.  I'm still enjoying pizza twice a week but that is it.
