Enough of the bulking, time to start cutting!

So yesterday I’m shopping, looking for some new dresses to wear from Ryan’s commissioning and it hit me. I need to start cutting. I typically wear a medium dress, but with it being in the single digits up in RI, I needed a dress with sleeves. But here’s the problem: my biceps and shoulders have bulked up so much, I am finding that I have to get a size bigger in order to accommodate my muscles. Putting on muscle is a great thing, but now it’s time to start shedding in order to show off that lean muscle!

I started this blog back in October, 4 months ago, and all the while I have been increasing my weight and hitting new maxs’.  For these next 8 weeks I plan to incorporate a large amount of  H.I.I.T workouts  and A LOT of body weight exercises! Personally, with the warmer weather just on the horizon, I’d much rather be outside working out than stuck in a gym- that’s just me!
So this is my latest workout and the last of my bulking ( for now)  :)
