It looks like you’ll have some good back width once you get the waist down. Enjoy the retirement

Thanks. I do think that my back is probably my “strongest” point.
A few kwik point to wrap up the week:
I have baseline photos up
I took Monday off so this week went as A, B, C, A for workouts (A=quad/chest, B=hamstring/back, C=shoulders/arms)
My gym’s lighting and mirrors are much more flattering than my apartment lighting and camera
A tank top covers a surprising amount of flaws
The Army snuck another TDY trip in on me, so next week I will be living in a hotel. I will post daily workouts next week, but plan to keep it in the spirit of what I have been doing (multiple sets of high reps: quad/chest, hamstring/back, and shoulders/arms). The hotel has very limited gym equipment, but I will be driving there so I am bringing some bands and my weighted vest to supplement the hotel equipment. I will continue to supplement with MAG-10, but since my workout will be far less than optimal I am going to drop the Plasma for the week.

Good new is that I go back home tomorrow so I will finish out my weeks workouts at my gym.
Bad news is that next week I fly to the east coast on TDY. Every time I think I’m out they pull me back in.
No real change in scale weight, scale body fat, or physical appearance. I feel great though! Joints are good, muscles feel “full”, and energy levels are good.
Weight: 203
Body fat (according to scale): 28%

Tomorrow I fly to North Carolina for 2 weeks.
So here I am in NC. The hotel I am staying at has a limited selection of dumbbells, a cable machine, a bench, and some cardio equipment. I took Monday off since I traveled all night Sunday to get here and then worked until about 3pm.
