The last few weeks I’ve increased my salad consumption. I’ve put on a little weight this winter. Last Monday I weighed myself, at UNL east campus gym, and it said 160. I’m not sure if I totally trust that scale. I always use the one in my home but I need to get a battery. Anyways, it’s that time of year to start eating a little different along with drinking a little different. I’ve also cut out the afternoon vending machine snack. The last month I’ve done a lot less endurance efforts and more intensity. Using less fat for energy and more glycogen.
I’m not to concerned with weight. I’ve weighed 150ish since a junior in high school. One time I got up to 165 but I was working at Hardee’s, in the student union, on Colorado State’s campus while going to school. Poor college kid will eat anything left around and even have the cook make a little extra to take home.
I do a pinch test, fairly often, and nothing seems to be changing. I’ve hit the weights since last August so it could be muscle mass. I’ll go with splitting, the weight gain, between muscle and fat.
