Fitness-journal: How Zephon starts through it!

    Okay, when I did all the workouts from the video of x-athlen I come to the conclusion: it is right, that your arms will grow. But not that fast as they promised. Sure my arms grow (left one from 34,3 to 35,1 cm and the right one 34,5 to 35,2 cm) but it is not like that the shirts get ripped. At least I could see some changes about my arms :)
    But I think my problems were during the 22 days:
    - it was during the time of exams where I have to learn and get prepared - I didn't do that many workouts as usually.
    - some weights were too soft, I had have to take more weight on the dumbells
    - there were days where I only did the workouts of x-athlen like in his video.

    Important is that I need a plan how to improve my strengths.
    And good news: my left shoulder got recovered so that I can do one-arm-pushups again! :D

    1x20 diamond-pushups
    1x20 regular pushups
    2x18 decline pushups
    1x30 shoulder-taps on plank

    1x16 diamond pushups
    2 minute one arm plank position (1 minute per arm)
    1x10 one-arm pushup on 1/3 way (5 per arm)

    1x16 raised leg pushups

    Hi Zephon how is it going?
    Are you noticing some upgrades with your body?
    Are you implementing your workout with a proper diet?

    I am getting followed by a personal trainer and I am seeing a lot of upgrades, what about you?

    Howdy Aléxandros!
    I made some progress! Stomach gets flatter and I can see some shapes of the abs, more than before! And I implemented a nutrition plan since beginning of my workouts. Now I consider to set the cheatday once in two or three weeks instead once a week.
    Great to hear, that you get some upgrades! I hope the personal trainer is not that expensive.
