Got home early enough to do a full and un-rushed workout before sunset. Because of this weeks weird schedule, I'm ending with resistance instead of cardio.  That might happen a few more times this coming month.

I really like Body Beast, but I wish there were more pull ups and chin ups throughout the program.  I thinking of going back to a Tony Horton program to get my pull up rep count back up.  I kept the weights today the same as earlier in the month.  I hoped to up my pull up and chin up count, but I was unable to.  Exactly the same as before.  One big positive thing is that I wasn't as apprehensive to go to the heavy weight as I was the last time.  I felt confident and able.  One thing that I noticed is that I start off at about the same weight as Segi does on the light weight for most moves, but he ups his weights in much bigger increments than I do.  I go up between 1-2.5kgs, Segi jumps by 5-10kgs.  He ends up being a little more than double the weight I'm pushing on the heavy weights.  On the 1-1-2 Hammer curls, my forarms started to really feel it.  Keeping the weights in the hammer position is a real challenge. All the weights and rep counts were the same as before except on one move, the last move, Airplane Cobra.  On that move I added 1rep on each set.  Wah Wah!  Got a huge pump and burn.  Just about got to failure on about half the moves.  Time to go up a bit.  I was also sort of babying my back a bit so this weight was just right for today.

Abs were good.  I had good control and balance was much better.  Kept up a slow lateral movement throughout.  Leg lifts were also good.  No pressure on my back. Only did one level today to keep my back safe.

Splits were good.  Got to the mark but not beyond.  Staying on a plateau for now, about two times a week going past it.  Soon, I'll go down another level.  Flow was smooth and clean.

In the end, I torched a respectable 850+kcals.  Happy for the weekend to be here.  Hope to do another long foam rolling time tomorrow. 13 days with not rest day is tough.  Hope to rest up tomorrow and relax.
