36 Weeks, 2 days out

 All green on my Versa 2, achieved my steps per hour goal and have over 18K steps for today. Macros were good today for being a fasting day. As of 6PM my time/7PM coach's tome still haven't heard from him yet. Didn't get in the Arm workout today but have it ready to copy over to next week. Next training week's fasting day will be harder since I'm on vacation but I'll figure it out after hearing back from coach Adam.

Back feeling better and got in a modified Legs/Glutes workout. When I say modified I mean I did fewer reps than was written. Coach should be fairly happy with my numbers this week.
