The last two weeks have seen a progression in intensity from the first two weeks with a mixture of upper/lower and full body workouts.
Despite much post workout soreness I am still enjoying the training and feel I am slowly getting stronger and fitter, the eating is dull but manageable...its good food but very samey...I'll cope though :) (especially as I'm giving myself a treat meal once every 4 weeks which co-incided with tonight yay - did the photo first though lol)
Making progress?
Looking from week 1-4 there's a definate change in shape, I have also dropped from 14% Body Fat to 12% so im on course for my sub 10% target....still alot of work to do and I would like to continue building lean mass as well (particularly my weedy arms), having looked at the program for the next month with planned overtraining I'm hoping this will start to happen.
I have also briefly seen my Abs poking through and wish they looked as good standing up as they do lying down :)
So 8 weeks to go and going strong, leave me a comment or critique my progress to keep me inspired and look out for the next photo in 2 weeks time :)

Athletic Physique week 2 photo update
Hey guys,
So here goes with my week 2 update of my progress on Bryan Kavanagh's athletic physique development program.

so far the program has been pretty tough but in the grand scheme of things has been very much an introductory process using lots of compound lifts to target large muscle groups, well.... if I had any large muscle groups haha.
And have I made any progress?
yes I believe so, I'm very much a beginner when it comes to specific athletic weight training so it is unlikely that within two weeks there would be any huge muscular changes as mostly the adaptations will be neuromuscular in nature...ie my movement patterns and recruitment of current muscle has gotten better. I feel (and hope) it is more likely weeks 6-12 where muscular size changes will occur most.
I am fairly pleased though that there does seem to be a composition change occurring (I will be measuring body composition and weight tomorrow to confirm) I feel stronger and am lifting more in the second week than the first and performing higher reps on chin ups which are a major struggle with my long gangly arms lol.
All in all pretty pleased with a tough but enjoyable first two weeks, especially as yesterday was my cousins wedding and Englands first world cup game and I managed to stick to plan and avoid alcohol :) tough but worth it...especially to see some of the dancing through sober eyes :)
Anyhew check out the pics and leave me some comments and I'll post again in two weeks,
