I have worked out on and off for about the last 4 years. Always seem to hit it hard for awhile and then fade out. I’m making this log to help hold my self accountable and start getting the real results I want. My goals are to lean up considerably as I am 6’1" and weigh 231.5 lbs. as of this morning. Not sure what my body fat percentage is but it is no where near good. Any feed back, recommendations, or constructive criticism is welcomed !
Train 6 days a week Sunday-Legs, Mon-chest, Tues-biceps, Wed-Triceps, Thur-back, Fri-shoulders, Sat-off. Try to get cardio in at least 4 times a week, but want to try and shoot for 5.

A few knee surgeries and bad knees have me starting light and movimg slowly with leg workouts. I also haven’t put a lot of effort into them for any extended amount of time so it’s something I need to change this time around.
