Day #44
Repetition. Not with our food, but with our workout. Very
high repetition exercises are being phased out because it leads to overuse injury.
PLUS, it’s just not that beneficial. You would be much better off using a
heavier weight, doing less reps and not resting in between sets. By keeping
your heart rate elevated during weightlifting, you have a stronger metabolic
effect during and after your workout!

I had an intense weightlifting workout. It was good, but boy am I fatigued! Shaky legs tonight! I wish I would've eaten more calories today, I ended up a little short at 1148.
Three more days.
Wait. Wait. You just blew everything I knew about lifting...
