Round 11 Cut Round - Mid Round Update

Round 11 Cut Round - Mid Round Update A little more than mid-way thorough Round 11 and I am NOT on plan. Spent the first 4 weeks of the round treading water.  Then I had two back-to-back trips. One planned. One unplanned.  This has had me going in the reverse direction.  Should be able to get back on plan on Wednesday as I am still in the middle of the second trip.   Right now I am trying to decide how aggressive I want to be with the remainder of time in this cut round.   To recap, I started the round off at 145.9 and goal weight is 136.6.  Today weighed in at 153.2.

Round 10 - Maintenance Round - Midway Update

Round 10 Maintenance Round Mid-way Update I am well into Round 10, past the half way point.  Today is day 49 of Round 10.  Overall, I am on week 103 day 718. As a recap, round 10 goes from April 3 to July 2. The goal for this round is to maintain weight and to add a bit of muscle. My maintenance goal weight is 144.2.  My maintenance range is 143 to 147.  Back in April, I went over 147 when I was on vacation but that came back down after about of week of being back on my routine.   My 49 day average is 144.9. As far as adding muscle, I see slight changes, a little more definition than I saw before.  Mostly in the arms.  For the most part, I think maintenance is going well.
