Got my second and third bouts of weekly cardio in this weekend, 45 minute game of 5 a side football with some friends on friday, and 90 minutes today.. This is pretty much a set arrangement every week, with a core group of about 7 or 8 of us, and then we get an extra 2 in. Usually, because we play pretty late (usually around 8pm) on a Friday, the pitches aren't that busy and we can stay on for an extra 45 minutes giving us a full 90 minute game.
Its amazing.
But this week was one of the times that it was busy, so we only got the 45. Still a great workout though. Especially as our team was rinsing it. Very enjoyable.
Sunday was nice and quiet, we could of stayed longer than the 90 mins but we were all knackered by the end of it.

Basically as im on a bit of a calorie deficit, Im not eating enough to recover between the sessions, to lift more the next session.
Although I've upped a fair few of my lifts, i'm going to stop near my upper threshold for each of them, rather than try and push it further each week. As long as im still lifting heavy I should get the intended effects (keeping the muscle while i strip off the fat).
Over the next few weeks im going to add a few bits and pieces back into the workout, such as pullups and bent barbell rows to make sure the muscle from my bulk doesnt go anywhere.
Its Monday tomorrow, so I'll be doing my weekly weigh in and posting the results up here.
